Chapter 61: Don't want to

''Thank you ''

She said to the waiter who brought her meal as he carried the tray to the dining table and placed it on it. The moment of relief Tiana felt dissipated when the waiter left the room. She closed the door quietly and avoided glancing at Nicklaus as she walked to the dining table.

Sitting down, she began munching into her food. The whole place was eerily quiet; she could feel Nicklaus' gaze on her as her meal painfully went down her throat; she didn't want to look at him, but she couldn't control her wandering eyes, and before she could stop herself, her eyes turned to him and they locked in his gaze, instantly she choked on her meal and coughed, she immediately gulped down a glass of water to stable herself.

Can he not look elsewhere?!!

Tiana screamed in her head. Ever since she sat down he had been staring as though there was some strange painting on her body.
