Chapter 149: You're Cute

I nod to them both before turning on my heels towards the lift. Andrew is waiting for the lift when I arrive. The last thing I want to do is make small talk with him.

"How is Maya doing?" he asks calmly.

"Good... she's cracking on with her HR paperwork."

"Thank you." He seems almost sincere. "If she becomes a pain, let me know."

"I'm sure we'll be fine." I smile at him bitterly. "I always was good at babysitting."

One thing I definitely will not be doing is being some sort of intermediary between them. That is not happening.

"Clara," Andrew looks surprised, "that's not what I had in mind."

"What did you think we'd become friends and braid each other's hair?" I throw his own words back at him. I'm more p*ssed than I'd realised.

"It wasn't my idea."

He looks uncertain for what I can only presume is the first time in his life.

"Perhaps not," I'm angry and I'm not completely sure why, "but I'm still going to have to baby sit your sister. Do you know what I think?"
