The Prodigy Boy Is Actually A 25 Old Girl!?

"Is this too fast?"

Kaylee couldn't find her voice when the man immediately guessed what she was thinking. In the end, she nodded her head slowly that confirmed the man's guess.

"Do you hate me?"

"No. I like you…" Kaylee immediately closed her mouth tightly when she realized she had confessed without her brain's permission.

This tongue of hers! Is there no way to subdue her tongue so as not to spit out a word she doesn't want to leak to other people?

It felt like Kaylee wanted to dig a hole to hide her face, especially when she noticed Declan suppressing his amused smile.

Ugh! How embarrassing!

"I mean… I do like you, but I don't know if I want to marry you. No, it wasn't like that. I… I…" Kaylee stuttered, didn't know how to express her heart.

"Kaylee, have you ever been in love before?"

Kaylee shook her head once. "I don't even know what love is."

"So I will be your first love if you fall in love with me."

Kaylee's jaw fell wide when she heard that shameless word from the man's mouth. Where did that man have such confidence that Kaylee would fall in love with him?

"It seems so, but how can you be sure I will fall in love with you? It might be I will glance at other people and also… Ekh?" Kaylee's words were interrupted because Declan now wrapped his arm around the girl's waist and pulled her until Kaylee's whole body bumped into Declan's sturdy towering figure. "Wh... what are you doing?"

"I'll make you fall in love with me." declared Declan with his trademark smirk.

This man a little bit pushy... no, not a little, but a lot. And yet, strangely, every touch and voice in his pushiness seemed so gentle and tender. A pair of eagle-like eyes that seemed to devour its prey also looked tender when he looked at her.

The man looked at her as if she was his most precious thing in the world, making Kaylee unable to deny this man's feelings. The girl even felt herself burning by the flames and melting away if she kept staring at this male eagle's eyes.

Kaylee decided to close her eyes because her heart was not strong enough to look at that man.

Declan knew Kaylee had closed her eyes on purpose because she couldn't bear to see his desire in his eyes. But he used this opportunity to tease his little bunny.

"Did you close your eyes expecting me to kiss you?"

Kaylee opened her eyes at once without knowing that her entire face was painted with a dark crimson hue down to her neck.

"N… No! Who… who is expecting… you... you..." Kaylee stuttered, and her eyes lingered all over the place but this shameless man.

She never knew that Declan had this side of him, and his level of shamelessness knew no bound!

"My sweet love, you should ask, and I will give it to you," stated the brazen man to make Kaylee even more panicked, and this time she tried to escape from the man's arms.

But Declan tightened his embrace on both hands so that Kaylee could not possibly get away from that man. Kaylee rested her palms on the man's chest to act as a barrier between their bodies. She barely found a gap between them made her shivered due to a strange tingling sensation.

At the same time, she was also trying to push his body away by putting the weight on her palms to release herself. But instead, she felt something in the palm of her hand resting on Declan's left chest.

She felt a rapid, steady heartbeat from the man's heart. Declan's heartbeat was no less fast than her!

Feeling curious about the man's heartbeat, Kaylee stopped struggling and enjoyed the heartbeat under the palm of her right hand.

"You... your heart is also pounding."

Declan smiled softly at the girl's comment. "I'm always pounding when you're with me."

Blush!

Kaylee snuggled her head to hide her face from the man without knowing her sweet, adorable reaction, making Declan grinned from ear to ear. Didn't this mean that the girl had allowed him to hug her even tighter?

Splash!

The corner of Declan's eye caught a brief flash of light from the side, causing him to look over immediately.

It was no mistake this time. There was someone who followed them ever since they came home from the shopping mall.

Is it one of the paparazzi?? Or is it someone else with bad intentions towards Roe?

Without letting go of his hug, Declan investigated the neighborhood around the housing in this place.

This place was not dark, but it looked too quiet without a single sound being heard.

It was already late at night, but it was not yet midnight, so he was sure that not everyone was asleep by ten o'clock.

Is this place safe for Kaylee, who lives alone in her apartment?

Well, this girl would be fine when she left for work in the morning or during the day. But what if this girl comes home late at night?

Declan couldn't help worrying about his lover's condition, who in a few months would become his bride.

"Kaylee, are you going to continue living here? Why don't you live with your parents?" Declan loosened his hug but didn't let her go.

"I wanted to live independently, so I moved here. This place is neither too expensive nor too cheap. Plus, this place is close to my studio, so I only need to take the bus once."

An eyebrow of Declan raised at this. "You are Kaylee Zouch. Why do I feel like you are worried about expenses?"

"What if I am the daughter of my father? I'm no longer a child, and I don't want to keep using my father's money. I'm not a girl who is spoiled and begs for money from my father's hard work."

Declan felt even more in awe of this girl, and his eyes looked at Kaylee with immeasurable tenderness and love.

"I love you,"

Kaylee gasped in shock at this man's sudden love expression. Aren't they talking about the reason Kaylee moved out of her parent's house? Why did this man suddenly confess his love to her?

"I... I..."

"I love you too,"

What???

"That... I didn't say that."

"You will say it one day." was the overconfident promise from the man that made Kaylee speechless.

"Until when are we going to be like this?" Kaylee felt that she couldn't bear her heart's beat, which was as fast as a rocket into outer space.

Plus, Declan didn't let go of his arms at all, and the intoxicating masculine scent of his assault on her nose caused her head to see butterflies flew above her head.

"Until you grant my wish."

Ha? "What wish?"

"Have lunch with me tomorrow."

Tomorrow? But she still has a class schedule on campus. She wouldn't be able to meet Declan during her class hours.

"I heard you are a professor at M campus. Aren't you teaching on weekdays?"

"No. I don't have a schedule on Friday."

"Ah, I see." Oh no. How could she refuse this one request?

It doesn't matter if she accepted the invitation to dine with the guy at any other hour, but she couldn't possibly take it while still in her role as Nick.

"You don't want to?"

"Not that I don't want to, but… I can't see you tomorrow afternoon."

"Do you have a schedule with your client?"

"Well, you could say that."

"So it's not because you want to avoid me?"

"Wh… what? Of course not. I'm not avoiding you," but I hope you release your arms soon. It was only Kaylee who could hear her complain.

Declan sighed in resignation, not wanting to force her. After all, he has seen Kaylee three days in a row and will meet again on Saturday.

In truth, meeting only one dinner a day was utterly unsatisfying for Declan, but he was willing to give this entire world time to let her get used to his presence and take it altogether.

"Alright. I will let it slide this time." Declan let go of his hug, and his words made Kaylee sigh with relief.

Since the sky was already dark and Kaylee was lowering her eyes' level, she couldn't see a crooked smile emblazoned on Declan's face.

"Then, good night," Kaylee said as she turned around to enter the apartment building.

But her steps stopped when Declan held her hand and turned her body abruptly. In the next instant, a pair of spongy foreign objects landed on her lower cheek… to be precise, on the corner of her lips!

Instantly Kaylee's entire world stopped rotating, and her body became a statue on the spot.

"Good night," whispered Declan softly, causing Kaylee's heart to explode like a volcano erupting at that moment.

Declan turned Kaylee's body and let the girl walk back into the apartment building. He could barely contain his laughter when he saw the girl's robotic walkway.

How adorable!
