The Prodigy Boy Is Actually A 25 Old Girl!?

Chapter 123 - Ch. 123 I Will Be Your Best Male Friend

No one knew for how long Kaylee looked at her phone. She only looked at a name shown on her phone screen without giving any reaction.

Since the duel between Nick and Arnold ended, Declan had called her phone many times. But Kaylee was inside, and along with the other audience, Kaylee enjoyed a concert by Nicholas's team and others without realizing someone phoned her.

Now that she was out of the room and reached into her phone to find out when Jacob would see her, it wasn't Jacob calling her but Declan.

Declan was still trying to reach her even now, but her fingers stayed still with no intention to answer the man unintentionally.

For some reason, Kaylee felt something was holding her back from going back to that man.

'Don't go back. Stay away from him.'

Before this, Kaylee heard this warning voice when she was talking to Osbert. But she didn't comply, which resulted in her being almost raped. Now Kaylee hears the same voice and tells her to avoid Declan. Is it possible that something dangerous will happen if she is with Declan?

Will Declan hurt her? But… Kaylee felt sure Declan would never hurt her.

In the end, Kaylee could only stare at her phone screen blankly without any interest in receiving the man's call.

Kaylee didn't know how long she had been standing there, letting people pass by until she noticed someone had marched toward her.

"Miss Roe,"

Kaylee looked up and saw the young man's face smiling gently at her. She stored her phone back into her sling bag and smiled back at the young man.

"Hi, Jack. Great play." Kaylee did not forget to give praise for the performance of Jacob and his friends.

"Thank you, miss. There's something I want to talk about. It's…"

"No, Jack. Please, listen to me first."

Jacob was silent, wondering what Kaylee wanted to tell him. Nevertheless, he nodded his head and let the girl speak first.

"I'm sorry." was her first word, causing Jacob's temple to frown. "I know how you feel about me, and I said I like you too. To be honest, this was the first time I had an attraction to the opposite sex. You are the first male friend who makes me feel comfortable, and you are one of my mood boosters when I feel moody."

Jacob giggled in amusement at the girl's cute confession.

"Someone once told me, if I feel comfortable and happy when I'm with someone, then there's a good chance I like that person. So I thought I liked you… more than a friend. But I realized I was wrong."

Jacob listened to every word that came out of Kaylee's mouth carefully without denying the girl. He tried to remain calm even though inside his heart, it felt like someone had stabbed a knife in his heart.

"I like you because I'm used to your existence. You are my closest friend." it didn't matter if I was Kaylee or when I disguised myself as Nick. Kaylee continued in her heart.

"Before this, I always closed my heart whenever someone approached me. I'm not a sociable person like Nick. I need time to open up to someone. When I met you back then, I didn't keep my distance at all because I already… I mean, I feel like I've known you for a long time."

"Sure you are," Jacob muttered sadly, and of course, Kaylee couldn't hear due to the crowd and his whispering-like voice.

"You are my closest male friend, Jake, and I don't think I'd ever been friends with a boy like I am friends with you. I know I'm being selfish by telling you this, but I hope we could stay still as friends. But... if you mind... then, it's okay too."

Jacob offered the girl his best genuine smile, which made Kaylee smile with him.

"Yes, miss. I'd love to do that too if you still want to be friends with me."

'I will be your friend regardless of who you are. Whether you are my uncle's fiance or the usual Nick I know.'

"Yes, please. I love it. Thank you, Jack."

Jacob shook his head. "No, miss. I should be the one thanking you."

"If you say so, but… will you keep calling me miss? Didn't we agree to be friends?"

"Then?"

"Call me Kaylee," stated Kaylee showing her happy smile as if all her stress and guilt towards Jacob had disappeared without a trace.

"Kaylee. It sounds nice." Jacob also felt the same way with Kaylee when the girl's name rolled in his tongue. He believed he had forgotten all his heartaches and no longer cared whether Kaylee had toyed with his heart or not.

He knew Kaylee didn't do it on purpose because he was sure Kaylee wasn't that kind of girl.

What's more, he had been scolded by Nick and made him realize, from the first time he met Roe, that girl had never belonged to him.

"It's my turn now. I'm sorry for everything. I didn't mean to hurt you like this evening, and I was a complete fool for doing so."

"It's okay. I didn't think about it anymore."

"But still. I'm your fan, Miss Roe."

"What?"

"Only this time. Can I get a fan service?"

"Ha? What do you mean?"

Jacob answered her question through his actions by walking closer to Kaylee and wrapping his arms around her, bringing Kaylee into his warm, gentle embrace.

Kaylee's eyes widened in shock, not at all expecting Jacob's actions, but she gave no reaction. She neither refused nor returned the young man's embrace.

"This will be the last time. After this, I will be your best male friend you could ever have," whispered Jacob next to her head while inhaling the fresh, intoxicating fragrant from the girl.

Before Kaylee could break free, Jacob had pulled himself from the girl and took a few steps back. His smile was still on his face before disappearing when he felt a sharp stab in his back.

Jacob felt someone standing not far from behind him, but he didn't dare to look back when Kaylee's shocked voice sounded.

"De… Declan?"

'Oh, my dear god. Please save me from my uncle's clutch.'

Really. What a great time!
