Chapter 77: Motivation (3)

Peter felt as if someone stabbed him right in the heart. Here he was thinking of Derek as a hero but the man was only looking out for himself. "But-"

"If you stay around long enough, we might be able to become friends but I swear if I end up having to go out of my way to bury you, I'll piss on your dead body and send it to your mother instead. Understood?" Derek smiled innocently. He hoped this little bonding experience with the gardener will pay off in the end. "Go have fun with Aurora."

Peter gulped, running off to help Aurora. He wasn't sure if Vincent or Derek scared him more. Was it really necessary for Derek to do all of this to avoid doing work? Wasn't Derek being a hypocrite right now? How could he lecture Peter about not working when he did all of this to not do his job in the future? Peter thought of bringing this up to Derek but any man working for Vincent was not one to argue with.
