My throat dried and my body became numb. Not wanting to face him again, I went to the library again. I began to pace around it in stress.
As I was pacing, Samuel came.
"Ma'am, Sir is waiting for you in the dining hall." My heart skipped a beat as my body began to shake in fear.
I don't want to face him, It's scaring me.
I bit my cheeks and went to the dining hall. He was sitting on the head of the house chair. He has changed into a casual shirt and trousers. I muster some courage and walked closer,
"Welcome Home." I said in a low voice. He looked at me with a mystifying yet surprised gaze.
“What?” He asked, blinking in confusion.
“Nothing.” I replied innocently.
Seems like he is not used to greetings, well what can you expect from a guy who lives all alone?
Without meeting his gaze, I took a seat as my hands turned cold with my heartbeat increasing.
