Chereads / Lost with twelve sins / Chapter 19 - Chapter 19

Chapter 19 - Chapter 19

If she likes, let her not come back again forever. At least, it will make him so happy and contented. Especially if he hears of her death!

With the way his wife told him how deep Sintia stabbed her, he's sure she won't survive it at all.

"Why are worried about her, do you care?"

He questioned and Catherina scoffed.

Care? What care? For who exactly huh?

"I am just concerned about the fact that she will be safe out there you know, if she's here. We can easily get rid of her." She explained.

Mr. Micheals thought of that and it could be true.

"How about you meet her friend that took her to the hospital and ask of her?" He suggested.

Catherina's mind wander back to the to reply the nurse gave her when she asked of the hospital Nina was transferred to.

Its better you don't fine out because that will be your doom

What did she mean by that statement?

She shrugged it off with a believe that it's just Vina, is it Vina she will be scared of?

She chuckled in her mind and nodded.

She really needs to find that brat before she turns Nina's mind against them.

"How are you feeling now?" Derrick asked sitting beside Nina but he made sure there was a good distance between them. He can't risk making her uncomfortable and he can't risk turning himself on either.

She's just like something she can't do without, anything that is hers makes him feel whole.

Even a mere body collision of hers and his will wake up all the demons in him.

He really needs to take things slow with her so she won't see him as a creep!

"I feel a lot better now, I don't feel pain anymore." Nina's eyes beamed. She's really tired of being pampered.

"That's really good to hear, I am glad you are getting better." She nodded at his response, the next moment, she began fiddling with her fingers.

"Did you need anything?" Derrick asked seeing that her mood just changed all of a sudden.

Or wait, did he say anything he wasn't supposed to say?

"About the agency I will work for Derrick, I really want to resume modelling as soon as possible and you know, you told me I should get better first, now I am very fine."

She rushed her sentences looking down.

Derrick breathed out! He thought he made her sad.

"About that, I am sure you know LBC Corporation right?"

Nina's head snapped up immediately while she nodded.

Of course, who doesn't know LBC Corporation? Its the third most popular modelling agency.

"I emailed them through your account yesterday and..." He paused to see her reaction with a smile tugged on the side of his lips.

"And?" Nina asked with her his glinting. Why's she feeling nervous?

What if they reject her huh?

That thought made her happiness die down coupled with the fact that Derrick is not saying anything.

She knows there won't accept her as one of their models. They won't pick her when they have more experienced people.

"They asked you to resume work by tomorrow, congratulations Nina"

Nina's eyes were left opened with her mouth slightly opened too.

"You are not serious are you?" She asked skeptically and in ecstasy.

"I wouldn't be lying to you Nina, what gain will I get from it? I am damn seri..."

Nina flew on him before he could finish. If not for the fact that he is sitting down,

He could have fallen down flat because of the way she flew unexpectedly on him giving him a very tight hug.

Nina unconsciously squealed without realizing she's hugging someone.

The joy of being accepted in LBC Corporation is something that will make anyone behave demential.

Derrick closed his eyes enjoying the moment, if this is a dream. He wouldn't want to wake up from it.

His Nina is willingly hugging him or is it happiness that made her hug him?

He frowned at the thought of that.

Either ways, he's still happy she's giving him this hug.

It won't happen frequently so he have to cherish this kind of opportunity that's like once in a decade to him.

He really wish Nina never let go of him.

How can he be so addicted to someone huh?

Or is it obsession?

He groaned inwardly and that brought Nina's soul back to reality.

Nina jerked of Derrick immediately she realized what she was doing.

Oh God! How could she be so shameless? She thought within herself with her face turning scarlet red.

She just disgraced her own self in front of who she's very timid of.

What if he gets angry?

"I... I uhmm. I am sorry, I was just too excited."

She defended seeing that Derrick was just staring at her with no sign of expression.

His face blank and unreadable.

Derrick shook his head feeling so amused by Nina's character.

Isn't she his shy guarNina angel?

"I understand perfectly, you don't have to apologize for everything Nina, learn to live freely with me. You are someone I will never think of hurting and I will not find it funny seeing you hurt."

He gave his long talks, all Nina did was to nod her head before muttering a thank you.

As much as she's now a changed person, Derrick is someone everyone will have to cower for.

She has really heard a lot about him and that is enough to keep her conscious of whatever she do around him.

But since he's never hurt her since she woke up to him at the hospital, she really needs to be free with him.

Maybe Derrick just has this image that portrays him to the public which is being too cold.

Nina has seen he's not anything near that. Aside Vina and Rochas, he's the he's the only one that ever had her interest at heart.

But...

"Uhmm Derrick?" Nina called uncertainly.

"Yeah, anything?"

Derrick asked glancing rapidly at her.

"Why?" She asked and Derrick stared confusingly at her! Why?

Why what?

"Why are you helping me?"

Derrick began coughing immediately he heard what she asked.

He wasn't expecting that question.

What answer did she want him to give her ?

Something like; ' because I love you ' or ' because it's you I want to get married to soon '

He continue faking the cough till Nina got to his aid.

"Are you okay Derrick?" She asked with concern written all over her face.

Derrick shook his head and increased the cough... Maybe that will take take her mind off the question she just asked.
