“It has nothing to do with trust, Sofi,” he says leaning back in his chair. “I trust you with my life. If I didn’t do you really think I would have let you stay here? Do you think I would have given you the opportunity to hone your skills? You would have been mopping up shit with the rest of the help in this house if I didn’t.”
“Then what’s the problem?” I bark in frustration.
“I would die if something happened to you or Tati,” he tells me softly. “My daughters are my world, and I can’t allow anything to happen to you. I would feel like a failure as a father if I lost either of you.”
With a shake of my head, I get to my feet and lean across the table to rest a hand on his forearm.
“Nothing is going to happen to us, okay? Not if I can help it.”
“And what happens if you can’t? Or if I can’t for that matter?” he asks, looking deep into my eyes.
“Then I’ll find someone who can.”
