As soon as his mother was mentioned, Nydia freaked out. Her hair standing on end, she looked at the man with a cold and wary look. "You're toxic, and I don't need your care. Just leave!"
She put her hands behind her back.
The lock of the door was an electronic one, and she was afraid that he would grab her hand and use her fingerprint to unlock the door. Then what her mother had left her would be taken away.
"Come on, I'm the only person who cares about you. Why don't you open the door and invite me in?"
The last thing she wanted was to have George in her house!
He was toxic.
Without hesitation, Nydia turned away, pressed the button, and got in as soon as the elevator door opened.
George was astounded.
Instead of following behind her, he stayed at the door to her apartment. Afraid that he would have the door pried open, she dragged him into the elevator.
"Darn it, that's rude. No men like that."
