AggregateException está jogando enquanto aguarda a postagem da API para concluir como eu poderia consertar isso?

Minha chamada de API é semelhante a isso

using (var httpClient = new HttpClient())
{
    httpClient.BaseAddress = new Uri(workflowUrl);
    var task = httpClient.PostAsJsonAsync("api/apiname/execute/", executeModel)
                             .ContinueWith(x => x.Result.Content.ReadAsAsync<bool>().Result);

    Task continuation = task.ContinueWith(x =>
    {
        bool response = x.Result;
    });
    continuation.Wait(); 

}

Estou recebendo a exceção dada abaixo enquanto aguardo o término do POST.
