Love Slave to the Mafia Boss's Passion 18 novel Chapter 90

That thought entered my mind and wouldn’t go away. It just made me recall the conversation that we had and how her face seemed to be filled with worry. Unfortunately, I knew that I was the cause of her distress. Even though, she’s supposed to be focusing on recovering, she’s still so worried about me.

“I’m just going to leave it the way it is. It’s probably best to show her smile as it is…” I replied.

“You’re probably right,” Hayden agreed.

“I think her smile is a bit sad because she’s always so worried…” I said softly.

“About you?” Hayden asked softly.

“Huh?” I made a surprised sound. I didn’t realized that I had said that out loud.

“I guess she’s worried about you,” Hayden said, sounding worried too.

“Umm…yeah…” I said hesitantly.

We were silent for a moment as we continued to look at the painting. If only time would stop, then perhaps, I’ll be able to keep her with me for a while longer…

“Well then, I’ll leave you to work on it,” Hayden said.

Just when I thought that he was going to leave the room, I heard a small creaking sound from my bed. Looking around, I saw that Hayden had made himself at home on my bed instead of leaving.

“Don’t just randomly crawl into my bed!” I cried out.

“Why not? You always end up in mine…” Hayden said with a teasing laugh.

Is this what he meant when he told me that he’ll leave me to concentrate on the painting? How am I supposed to focus when he’s laying there on my bed and staring at me?

“That’s…not true. Can you just leave?” I said, not bothering to hide my annoyance.

“No…your bed is comfortable. I’ll be here for a while…” Hayden said stubbornly.

“Don’t you have any work to do?” I asked.

“Oh right. We need to get you an outfit for the gala…” Hayden said lazily.

Hayden was extremely good at changing the subject of the discussion when the current topic didn’t suit him. I just sighed loudly as I gave up on trying to get rid of him. I knew that I wouldn’t be successful anyways.

Turning my back on him, I turned to face the painting and tried my best to continue working on it. I could feel his eyes on my back the whole time and it made me feel so nervous.

“Are you going to join the art exhibition with your friends?” Hayden asked suddenly.

Oh right, he was listening in on the conversation…while we were…
