The Prodigy Boy Is Actually A 25 Old Girl!? - Chapter 213

Nick waited for a save gap as the man who had just come down from the second floor made his way to the exit. He picked up the light on the nightstand and tossed it right at the back of the man’s head, then ran as fast as he could to the back and jumped out of the window.

Fortunately, he had often trained his muscles and memorized the route of his home area. He even knew a secluded section that was a connection to his neighbor’s house.

Nick managed to jump over a fairly high wooden fence and into his neighbor’s backyard in one leap. Fortunately, this neighbor of his was rarely in the house, so he doesn’t have to worry about being reported to the police for sneaking in without the residents’ permission.

He waited for a few minutes before coming back out and walking out through the small streets that people rarely explored. He even threw his cell phone in the trash, knowing that his father’s men would be able to track him down.

He ran as fast as he could until he bumped into someone in front of a shop.

“Nick? What are you doing?” Jacob rubbed his shoulder to ease the pain. The shoulder bump was quite hard, inflicting a slight pain.

“Jack? Why are you here?” even though Nick was asking Jacob, his eyes darted around warily. He was worried that his father’s men would see him here, and his attempts to escape were in vain.

“I’m looking for a present for Letti. Today is her birthday. You will come, right?”

“Oh, right. Sorry, but I can’t come. Hey, can you call Kaylee and tell her to call Dani?”

“Ha?”

“I gotta go.” Nick quickly ran when he saw a familiar man appear on the street.

Nick ran and climbed down several stairs at once as he entered the subway station. He even jumped through the check-in portal without entering the admission ticket and went straight into the train cart.

Just as the train doors closed, the people chasing Nick arrived at the front of the train. Nick breathed a sigh of relief that he managed to escape, but he couldn’t relax just yet. He needed to find out what he should do next.

He couldn’t possibly go to Zouch’s residence because he was sure his father had set people up in Zouch’s residential area. Before he set foot into Kaylee’s parents’ house, he would definitely be caught first.

Nick looked at the line of this train line above the door wall and smiled when he saw a place name. He decided to get off there, and he ended up at Lydia’s house.

“Why did you bring nothing when you go outside? Stupid boy.”

“Yeah, yeah. I’m stupid and worthless. Isn’t that why you rejected me?”

“What? I didn’t.”

“So you’ve accepted me? Is this our first day?” inquired Nick in full of expectant look.

“Not really.” was her merciless rebuke to make Nick slumped his shoulders limply.

“Can I borrow your phone?” he asked again in a lazy tone as if he had no hope.

Seeing how desperate the young man was, making Lydia couldn’t help but smiled amusedly.

“Here.” nevertheless, Lydia gave her phone to Nick.

Nick reluctantly took Lydia’s phone, then entered an odd number that confused the girl.

“50510? What number is that?”

Before Nick could answer, Lydia’s phone rang, and the screen showed a restricted number.

Lydia was about to take her phone back, but Nick grabbed her hand and said, “It’s for me.”

Ha? Lydia was even more confused when Nick got to his feet to answer the incoming call. Furthermore, Nick walked away and spoke in a foreign language because he didn’t want Lydia to hear him.

“It’s me.”

“Nick! Where are you? I can’t track you.”

“I threw my phone, and I’m in Lydia’s house.”

“Okay. I will pick you up.”

“Don’t worry about me. Can you track my sister?”

“Miss Wendy? Why?”

“They got her.”

“… Should I report it to Mr. Zouch?”

“If that man had allowed our father to take us home, I think it would be pointless to ask for his help. I plan to go to Mr. Zouch and asked him to let us stay here.”

“You can’t come. Hades IV was on standby near the Zouch residence. You can’t go in there alone.”

“That’s why I asked for your help.”

“I’m sorry, I can’t help you either.”

“Why?”

“Your father is here… in front of my house.”

“…”

“I’ll hang up now.”

Nick dropped his hand from his ear and sighed in resignation. If his father had arrived in New York, that would mean… his father’s decision to take his two children home was irreversible.

“Nick?”

Nick turned to Lydia and gave her his trademark smile. He returned the girl’s phone without showing any feelings of despair.

“Thanks. It looks like I have to go home now.”

“Have you had dinner? How about I cook something?”

“You’re going to cook for me?”

“If you don’t want to, that’s fine.”

“Of course I want!” responded Nick with an overly excited tone.

Lydia felt like she could see his tail wagging like a happy dog. “Okay. Wait here.”

Lydia walked back to the kitchen and opened her fridge to see the ingredients she had. After that, she started to cook simple dishes and served them on the dining table.

“Woah, you will be a great wife someday! Ouch!!” groaned Nick when Lydia pinched his cheek for the umpteenth time.

“Don’t talk too much and behave if you want to eat.”

“Okay, okay.” Nick stroked his cheek, which felt hot from the girl’s pinch. And yet, he didn’t lose his happy smile when he looked at the food in front of him.

His first meal of Lydia’s cooking! He felt like he was dreaming!

“Who contacted you?”

“An acquaintance.” came his short answer as he devoured his food with great pleasure. But his entire body became a statue the instant he heard Lydia’s following inquiry.

“Why did you ask your acquaintance to track down your sister?”

Nick raised his gaze at the girl in surprise. This girl could understand his mother tongue!?
