Chapter 74\u00a0<\/p>\n
Two hours later, Genevieve and Tristan reached the door of her apartment.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Tristan leaned most of his weight on Genevieve as if he had every right to do so.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She had to grit her teeth to stop herself from kicking him. He was clearly trying to take advantage of her!\u00a0<\/p>\n
The door opened, revealing a simply furnished apartment with a black, white, and gray color scheme. It matched her personality perfectly. The only bright\u2013colored objects were the rare medicinal herbs on the balcony that were thriving under her meticulous care.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Tristan scanned the surroundings before walking up to the gray couch in the living room, which looked extremely comfortable. Then, he sat down as if he were the owner of the apartment rather than a guest.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Liam led a few subordinates in, carrying bags of various sizes. They brought everything\u2013custom indoor slippers for men, toiletries, brand new pajamas, a change of clothes, and even the mug and tea that Tristan usually drank.\u00a0<\/p>\n
In just half an hour, they almost cleared out a corner of the Hale residence and stuffed everything into Genevieve\u2019s small\u00a0<\/p>\n
apartment.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Genevieve had a splitting headache.\u00a0<\/p>\n
With all the things Tristan had brought over, it seemed more like he was planning to stay at her apartment for seven years than seven days.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat are you guys doing? Are you planning to set up a base camp here?\u201d she asked.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Liam gave her a look as if to say this was simply how particular Tristan was. Then he replied respectfully, \u201cMs. Whitfield, Mr. Hale needs to rest and recuperate. All of these things are necessities for him.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Genevieve was rendered speechless.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She took a deep breath, telling herself to calm down and that he was a patient who had gotten injured while saving her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
After she repeated that to herself three times, she walked up to Tristan and wrote a prescription for him at the coffee table.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThese are the medicinal herbs you will need for the next three days. Take them three times a day after your meals. Have your men buy them for you, and-\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Before she could finish, he pressed the prescription down on the table.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He lifted his head, fixing his darkened gaze on her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI told you that what I need is someone who can take care of me around the clock,\u201d he said.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Genevieve frowned and asked, \u201cWhat do you\u00a0<\/p>\n
mean?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI mean, from buying the medicine to preparing it and feeding it to me\u2013even taking care of my meals and all my daily needs. All of this is your responsibility from now on,\u201d said Tristan.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The following day, Tristan lounged on the couch, making himself completely at home. With one arm in a sling, he held the TV remote with his other hand as he flipped through the channels in boredom.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Genevieve had changed into a clean set of loungewear and was making a calming tonic for him in the kitchen. As she prepared the ingredients, she mentally cursed him to hell and back.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She had met people who bit the hands that fed them, but she had never met anyone who would force someone to return a favor. Yet, Tristan did it as if he had every right and even felt utterly justified doing so.\u00a0<\/p>\n

2\/2\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cGenevieve,\u201d he called out to her very naturally from the living room.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Genevieve took a deep breath, suppressing the urge to throw the knife in her hand. Then she walked out.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat do you want?\u201d she asked in annoyance.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Tristan pointed at the cup on the coffee table and said, \u201cI\u2019m thirsty.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Genevieve didn\u2019t know what to say.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Resigning to her fate, she walked over and poured him a glass of warm water.\u00a0<\/p>\n
After he finished it, he pointed at the TV and said, \u201cThis show is so boring. Change the channel.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Genevieve grabbed the remote with a blank face and switched to the finance channel.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is too noisy,\u201d he said.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She then switched to a nature channel showing an animal documentary.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is too childish,\u201d he said again.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The veins on Genevieve\u2019s temples were starting to pop.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She slammed the remote on the coffee table with a loud thud.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cTristan, you\u2019re doing this on purpose, aren\u2019t you?\u201d she hissed.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Amusement gleamed in Tristan\u2019s eyes as he watched her get all riled up with anger, making her seem like a cat with its fur standing on end.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He quickly wiped the smug look off his face and put on an innocent expression as he slightly waved his injured arm.\u00a0<\/p>\n
