Two options:
1. If your Twitter account uses your real name, then limit what you say on it, so if anyone else sees it (say, a boss, family member or someone else) there isn't a problem.
2. Set your account as locked. It will show that you have an account, but only people you let to will see your tweets.
- In the web version, click on your name in the upper right corner, then select "Settings." From there, scroll to the bottom of the page and click on the box that says "Protect My Tweets"
3. Abandon the Twitter account, sending a DM to all of your followers to follow a new account. Change the photo on the account you abandon so it's not you.

There is no direct way to get rid of your Twitter account from Google results.
