Chapter 22 (1058)
ALEXA’S POV
“Are you fucking insane?”
I threw the pillow I held in my hand that immediately hit his face. He groaned in frustration as he put the pillow down on the floor.
He stared back at me with all seriousness, unmoving from his position. I could feel my anger rising at this boy’s audacity to go out of line with me.
“Nolan, I will say this once and I will not say it again. Get. The fuck. Out of my room…” I yelled as I stood up from where I was positioned before and glared at him.
I waited expectantly but to no vail, Nolan sat still in his seat. This boy is getting on my nerves, I could tell why he and his girlfriend get along.
“Nolan, so you know how outstandingly creepy you are right now?” I sighed as I brought both my hands through my hair as I sighed in frustration.
“You know this could’ve been started and dealt with if you aren’t talking so much,” Nolan retorts, fiddling his pencil at me and looking bored.
“You’re acting all hyped up for nothing, I know why you’re making your move around me and my girlfriend could tell by your actions you’re interested in me,”
Before I knew it I was shocked that I slapped him across his face out of spite. I scowled down at him, watching with no regret as he looked back at me shocked.
“I’ve been getting close to you since day one because I need this job, not to get myself fucked around!” I huffed out.
“You know why I’m trying so hard, even doing chores not even under my contract?!” I watch as he tilts his gaze down on the floor in shame.Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
“I have a brother back home who needs me, someone who isn’t capable of taking care of themselves! Do you understand that?!” I was practically yelling at him, but I wasn’t giving a damn. I’m tired. I need a rest.
“You should take your girlfriend to a shrink for being obnoxiously territorial, if she wanted to she would’ve gotten my job instead of putting a ridiculous amount of effort to show off your relationship!”
“Did you even think I gave the slightest damn between you two? I’m doing my job as a nanny, for christ sake!” I continued on. Putting both of my hands on my hips and walking to the drawer cabinet to let off some steam.
“Get a grip, Nolan, I’m doing my job… You are practically harassing me even though I didn’t do shit to you,” I hissed at him as I finished before turning around to face him.
He was practically rendered speechless and wasn’t even giving me eye contact with me, which made me annoyed even more.
“What happened, tough guy? Cat got your tongue? Nobody ever stood up from you before, huh?” I taunted, crossing my arms in front of my chest and watching his face go bright red.
“It’s just I find it funny,” He says softly, his jaw clenched before looking directly at me.
“I wonder if my father had the nerve to ask, you would undoubtedly do it for the sake of gaining something,” My jaw dropped the moment his words reached me, I had no intention of doing any of the sort they think of.
“Am I right?” Nolan smirks, squinting his eyes at me as if he had finally seen through me. Though he didn’t.
I am just fed up now. But if he’s not gonna take the hint of leaving me the fuck alone, I’ll take his bait and make him leave.
“Why hasn’t your father thought about that though? Aren’t you supposed to be the one blaming him?”
The room fell silent, I stood there holding my ground and my temper from hurting Nolan again.
“What do you mean?” His brows furrowed, looking confused at me.
“Oh, don’t act so unsure. You’ve known your father would grow desperate for someone to bear his future child… Someone to replace you,” His face dropped and I could feel him reading between my words.
“You’re fucking with me-”
“And what if I’m not?” He sat there stunned, his eyes looked worried which made me think back from all his complaining.
“Wouldn’t it be nice though? You wouldn’t have to deal with your father’s forceful attempt to change you,” I continue to talk, trying my hardest to stay calm and collected in front of him.
“Stop it, shut up! Just stop!” Nolan shouted out, his hands gripping onto the fabric at the bottom of his hoodie, pulling the material harshly as he stood up to tower over me.
“Getting played isn’t fun when you’re the target, huh?!” I laughed at his reaction as I made my way back to bed, I can’t believe he’s acting as if his dad actually did threaten to disown him.
“That’s not funny!”
“It is when you look at yourself in that mirror!” I snapped.
I watched as tears formed at the corners of his eyes, his hands clenching his shirt tightly. I walked closer to him, trying to reach his hand which was clutching onto his hoodie.
His hands stayed stuck together as he stared at me, his lip quivering, trying to contain himself from crying.
“Nolan…” I whispered softly.
His breathing grew faster as his fists clenched tighter, his breathing became heavy and uneven as he looked me in the eye.
“Hey, look, there’s nothing going on between us-”
I walked closer to him, grabbing both of his wrists which caused his body to flinch and try to pull his hands away from me. His body shook violently as he struggled to break free from my grip.

“Let go!” Suddenly, he took his fold up chair and table, walking out of my room.
I didn’t know what else to feel besides the fact I was glad he was out of my room. It wasn’t like we were exactly on speaking terms anyway. That was probably better if he left sooner rather than later, maybe it would help him understand things. Like not crossing my boundary
