The Prodigy Boy Is Actually A 25 Old Girl!? - Chapter 271
Arriving at a hospital, they saw Lydia and Aubrey standing in front of the entrance. Without waiting, Roxy got out of the car as soon as Declan parked and dashed toward her make-up artist.
“Lydia!”
“Kaylee,” Lydia’s voice sounded grateful and relieved when she saw Kaylee’s face.
Lydia had never shared her personal life with Kaylee, but she had thought of Kaylee as a sister deep down. No wonder she felt relieved as if she was looking at her elder sister.
“Are you alright? How about your grandma? Why didn’t you ever tell me about your grandmother’s health condition? Didn’t I tell you to tell me if something happened to you? I thought you already thought of me as your friend.”
“Thank you, but… I’m used to relying on myself. Then I met Aubrey, and she told me you asked Mr. Black to help me.”
“Ha?” since when did she ask Declan to help Lydia’s situation. Roxy would help Lydia herself instead of asking him. Roxy had considered Lydia as her family member… as a sister.
“Thank you, Miss Kaylee.”
“Why with the formalities? How is your grandmother now?”
“She…” Lydia glimpsed at Declan in bewilderment but filled with expectant.
“She is in a hospital managed by BPE. I can take you there if you want.”
Roxy glanced at Declan with an accusing look. Why did the man relocate someone else’s grandmother without the knowledge of the family members concerned? At least, Declan could have told Roxy beforehand when they were on their way here. But the man said nothing nor explained it in more detail.
In the end, they all went to the hospital to see Lydia’s grandmother. Arriving at the hospital, one of the doctors recognized Declan and greeted the man with great respect.
Inevitably, Roxy decided to be with Declan because the man held her hand. Meanwhile, Aubrey accompanied Lydia to the top floor, where her grandmother was. It seemed Aubrey knew precisely the room as she was the one who guided Lydia to meet her grandmother.
After short pleasantries between Declan and his acquaintance, Roxy demanded an explanation from her lover.
“I know you’re only keeping your promise to Nick to look after Lydia and her grandmother. But why did you have to hide this from Lydia? Don’t you feel sorry for her? Not only does she think her grandmother is dead, but she thinks she won’t be able to meet her grandmother without saying goodbye.”
“I understand you’re angry. But I have a reason. Trust me.”
“I will believe you if you give me a tolerable reason. Why did you suddenly transfer her?”
“Are you jealous that I regarded another girl?”
“Tsk. I’m not you who likes to be jealous blindly. I’m just annoyed that you freaked Lydia to death. I don’t mind you giving the best care for her grandmother, and I’d be angry if you did otherwise. Lydia is like a sister to me, and to be honest… doesn’t she look a bit like Kaylee?”
Declan reminisced about his time with ‘Kaylee,’ and although he had only met Lydia a few times, he could sense that the younger girl did have traits similar to Kaylee.
No wonder ‘Kaylee’ and Lydia match well, and Roxy loves her like
she loves her real sister.
“When you say it that way, she does look a bit like you back then. But I feel sad.”
Ha? “Why?”
“You don’t feel jealous at all.”
Roxy laughed, amused at the slurred tone of her lover. “That’s because I believe in you. You won’t turn to any other woman but me.”
Declan’s gaze softened hearing this, and he kissed the girl’s forehead before the two entered the elevator.
By the time they arrived at the room dedicated to caring for the grandmother, Roxy could hear Lydia’s cheerful voice had filled with relief, knowing that her grandmother had no injuries.
“Good day, Granny.” greeted Roxy when they entered the room.
“Isn’t that…”
“Yes, she is, granny. She is Miss Kaylee I’m talking about.”
“Good day, Kaylee. I’ve heard so much about you from Lydia, and please, just call me Paula.”
Roxy smiled softly at that, but there was a sad look in her eyes when she heard her ‘sister’ name being mentioned. Now that ‘Kaylee’ is gone, she has to get used to hearing people call her ‘Kaylee.’
Her family had discussed it yesterday when they all knew Roxy had returned. For the time being, Roxy would continue to use her identity as Kaylee, and only when she distributes her wedding invitations with Declan will she use her name again.
“Unfortunately, she hardly ever talks about you to me. Otherwise, I would have visited you earlier to keep you company.”
Paula laughed and pinched her granddaughter’s cheek lightly, who was now putting on a guilty face.
“I can understand why she didn’t tell you. This kid always hides all her burdens alone.”
“Granny,” Lydia protested, but her grandmother continued to speak.
“I’m afraid she’ll be alone if I go.”
“…” no one dared to speak, and Lydia felt her heart cut into pieces hearing her grandmother’s sad voice.
“Kaylee, don’t you have any acquaintances with a dependable young man who is suitable match for Lydia?”
“Granny!” Lydia didn’t know how to hide her bashful face.
“Don’t worry, Paula. Someone has been keeping a close eye on her, and to be honest, Aubrey is here too because of her boyfriend’s request.”
“Ha?” both the grandmother and her granddaughter looked at Roxy in astonishment.
Lydia wondered if ‘Kaylee’ knew that she was in a relationship with Nick or not? She also wondered if Aubrey knew Nick. If so, why did the young man ask Aubrey a favor?
“Lydia? You already have a boyfriend? Why didn’t you ever tell me? Could it be the doctor?”
“No. Not him. But…”
“No? Who is it, then? Kaylee, do you know her boyfriend? What does he look like? Where is he now?” Like a mother who seems excited to meet her future son-in-law, Paula was thrilled to hear that her granddaughter finally had a boyfriend.
Roxy couldn’t help but giggle to see the over thrilled old lady.
But… why was Lydia’s expression filled with sadness like someone who had just had their heartbroken?
Did something happen to Nick?
