Chapter 234 - Ch. 234 Ugly Nerd
Lydia lowered her gaze and straightened her body, not knowing which way to look. Nick smiled slightly at the girl's blush and took his lover's hand.
"It's… It's done." came the announcement from Lydia. "Don't you want to see my handiwork?"
"Sure." Nick got to his feet and walked over to the mirror on the wall.
His brow furrowed in displeasure when he saw his reflection in the mirror. His eyes looked narrower, and his cheeks looked more… chubby. Not to mention, his neck looks swollen, like he had a lot of fat!
Needless to say… he looks ugly!!
"I have round glasses in a square bag. Ah, I also have a thick men's jacket to make you look fatter. No one will recognize you once you leave this house."
Lydia, I want you to make me less handsome, not an ugly nerd T.T
Of course, only Nick could hear his cry. His girlfriend was so heartless!
"Why are you silent? Aren't I great?"
Nick helplessly nodded his head. "Yeah. Your skill is... top-notch. I don't even recognize myself."
Lydia chuckled when she heard her boyfriend's disheartened voice. "I like you, Nick."
Nick stared at his lover in disbelieve, not expecting the girl's confession at all.
"So, come back soon and don't make me wait too long."
Nick wrapped his hands around her shoulder and hugged the girl tightly. "Are you teasing me? You said you like me when I'm this ugly. Why didn't you say it when I look the best?"
Lydia laughed as she smacked Nick in the chest playfully, and they both laughed.
Nick glanced at the clock and sighed resignedly when he realized it was time for him to leave.
"I have to go now before my father found me here." Nick released his arm but took the girl's hand. "Can I see your phone again?"
Lydia gave her cell phone without hesitation to Nick and let the young man fiddle with it.
"Their location had changed. Do you have Mr. Black's contact number?"
"I do."
"What's his name?"
Lydia was about to take her phone back, but Nick stretched his hand far away from her so Lydia couldn't take it.
"Give me back. I'll show you."
"What is his name?"
Lydia bit her lower lip in frustration, wondering why Nick was so perceptive to her nervousness at a time like this.
"I can't find Mr. Black." came the word from the boy when looking at the contact list on Lydia's phone. "But I found a Black prince."
Lydia scratched the nape of her neck while laughing nervously. "That… I will change the name." she tried to seize her phone one more time in vain.
"Why does it have to be a prince?"
"Give me my phone!"
"Dun wanna. But, how did you get his number?"
"Isn't it so that I can help you? Give it back."
"A sweet talker, aren't you? I won't give it back until you tell the truth."
Lydia sighed in defeat and decided to give up because Nick wouldn't give her phone back.
"At that time, Mr. Black calls everyone because Miss Kaylee is missing. I don't know what happened, but it seems like it was a bit pressing at the time."
"Kaylee disappeared?"
"Did you know her hand was swollen?"
"Wasn't it because she fell down the stairs?"
"Fall from stairs? I doubt that. If I remember correctly, someone kidnapped her."
"What did you say?" Nick's brow furrowed in disapproval of hearing this.
"Why? Are you worried about her?"
"Why do I hear a jealous tone?"
"I'm not."
"Instead of that, I'm the one who feels jealous because you mention Mr. Black like that. You'd better change that before I leave." finally, Nick returned Lydia's phone.
The girl quickly changed the name Mr. Black on her phone. At the same time, she changed Nick's contact name to something else.
"Here. I've changed it."
Nick's brow furrowed in confusion at the profile photo, which was the logo for his music band. Then he saw the name above was 'My Prince' made Nick smile with satisfaction.
"Are you satisfied?"
"Extremely delighted." nodded Nick with a wide grin. "I need to make a call." he stretched his hand at Lydia as if asking for something made Lydia sigh.
"Why do I feel like dating you is draining me?"
How could she not feel tired? This young man managed to force her to pour out of her heart until she felt her world being stirred up to make her head dizzy. Then she had to change Nick's appearance with a heavy heart, knowing that they would have to part and never know when they would meet again after this.
And lastly, she still had to quell this unnecessary jealousy from her lover.
"Eh? I haven't even taken you to the room yet."
"…" this guy….
"I'm just teasing you. You should see yourself in the mirror. So cute."
"..." whatever!
Lydia turned and packed up her make-up kit and put the faux leather in a plastic bag. Nick smiled in amusement at his sulking girlfriend as he walked away to contact Declan Black.
That's why Declan took the call as soon as the man arrived at his mansion, and Declan gave the young man his address so Nick could come to him.
Declan didn't want to give his address at first, but…
"The The God Eyes. I know you have that, Mister Black."
"…"
"Aren't you afraid I'll blabber about it?"
"Are you threatening me?"
"No. I need a favor in exchange information."
"I doubt you have something I want, Mr. Larson."
"It's about Kaylee and her past."
"I already know about it."
"Not all, Mr. Black. Have you heard the Frontier Shadow?"
"Why should I know that name?"
"Kaylee is their leader."
"..."
Declan knew Kaylee was gone and that currently with him was Roxy. But after hearing that Kaylee was the leader of something that sounded dangerous, he finally yields in.
In the end, he gave Nick his address, and that's how Nick came to Declan's mansion with the appearance of an ugly young man.
