"Oliver could be a useful contact," Jeniva said, sliding her phone back into her purse. "That's why I gave him my number. And Your Highness, don't look so surprised. You usually don't bother speaking to anyone unless they demand your attention. Don't forget that," she reminded him with a knowing look.
Dominick kept his gaze fixed straight ahead, choosing not to rise to the bait.
They stepped into the mall. Jeniva smoothed her coat and turned to him. "Let's part ways here. I have my errands, and you clearly want your 'peaceful' walk."
"Why?" Dominick asked. "Stay close to me. Since Evan isn't here, you should step up and act as my bodyguard, shouldn't you?" He arched his brows at her, a challenging glint in his eyes.
Jeniva paused, contemplating for a moment. If anything happened to Dominick, she might get blamed. And she didn't want any sort of problem upon herself.
She sighed, giving a reluctant nod. "Alright."
