Khloe's POV
"Don't worry about Adele, okay." Nevian said, flashing a coy smile at me as he crouched next to me.
With my heart fluttering, I couldn't help but to return his smile even though it didn't last for a minute.
Against my will, I was getting attracted to Nevian, making me mad at myself and whenever I had the chance to chide myself for getting carried away, I do so without any form of hesitation.
"Are you still worried?" He asked after a brief silence.
Shaking my head sideways, I took a sip from my glass of water.
"I will drop you off at the office." He offered but I quickly shook my head in the negative.
"I need to make a quick stop at the mall to get some stuff, you can go without me." I said, in a bid to push him off.
"Alright." He replied without a fight and for some reason, I felt bad about it. Unlike before, he was going to probe, until I spilled but he didn't.
