Chapter 48 Chapter “I’m going to kill you if you make him feel uncomfortable,” Xander threatened Lisa as he sat on the couch in the living room, and she scoffed. He had just returned from work minutes ago and Lisa asked to go out on a date with Nick. “you would’ve been dead now if I wanted to kill you for hurting my friend. Don’t you think?” She smirked at him and rolled her eyes. “You are unbelievable, “You’ve not thank me for helping you out though. She winked at him, and he sighed. “Thank you. That reminds me… Do you think I should call her? You sent the gift to her yesterday and I’ve not gotten a call from her yet” “You were waiting for her to call you first? Are you kidding me, man? You are going to grow gray hair if that’s what you’re waiting for,” She swung her left leg over the right one and reclined on the couch. “You should her, anyway,” She stood up up and grab grabbed her handbag from the center table when she heard Nick descending the staircase. “See you around, sweetheart,” She winked at Xander, then turned to Nick and smiled. *Shall we?” She grinned from ear to ear, and Nick looked at Xander for approval, but he just rolled his eyes and turned his face away. “Yes, Ms,” Nick muttered and she led the way while he trailed behind her. Nick hurried over to the parking lot and pulled the backdoor open for her, but she crossed her arms on chest and sighed. “We are going out on a date, so you’re not expecting me to sit in the backseat, right?” “Oh… Sorry,” Nick muttered uncomfortably as he closed the door and opened the front seat for her. “Thank you,” She smiled then hopped inside, and he closed the door behind her. Furthermore, he hopped in the driver’s seat and the ride to the restaurant where Lisa had made a reservation began.
Nick’s heart raced in his chest as he drove down the road nervously. It had been a while since he last hang out with a lady, and doing it with his boss’s sister now was really weird and made him feel uncomfortable, but sadly, he couldn’t say no. “I want to ask you of a favor, Nick. Can you please go out on a date with my sister? I don’t know when she’s going to ask for it, but can you please do this for me? I know it can make uncomfortable, but I really need this’ He was stunned when Xander approached him and asked him that, and even though he didn’t feel like doing it, he knew he had to. Xander wasn’t someone he could say no to “It’s awkward here,” Lisa broke the awkward silence as she looked at him with a smile on her face. “Uhm…. I should turn on the music then, Nick reached out to play a music, but she stopped him. “I like it here without music. So, tell me… How old are you?” Nick found the question quite personal, so he glanced at her and continued driving “Don’t mind me. Keep driving.” She patted his hand gently and looked out of the window. After a few minutes ride, they finally arrived at the restaurant, and Nick pulled over at the parking lot. He alighted from the car and went to open the door for her. “Thank you,” She smiled at him flirtatiously as she stepped out of the car and flipped her hair behind her neck. 1/3 11:21 Wed, 12 Jun OF Chapter 45 Nick was stunned when they walked inside the restaurant and they were the only ones i s around. 75% reserved the restaurant for us,” She quickly spoke up when she noticed the confusion on his face, and he raised his eyebrows as he looked at her “Oh, He only mouthed as he pulled out a chair and sat on it. “Waiter” She snapped her finger and in a few seconds, one of the waiters showed up, pushing food service trolley filled with food of different varieties, Content rights belong to NôvelDrama.Org.
toward them. “I asked Kander for a list of your favourite meal. I got them all,” She looked at him and smiled, making Nick even more uncomfortable. “Uhm… Hmm,” He just nodded, not knowing what to say Nick had heard from his boss several times that Lisa was a crazy young lady, but he was just starting to notice that about her now. Why would she do all these? The waiter carefully served them, and after he left, Lisa looked at him and smiled again. “You should eat,” “Oh… Yes, I will,” Nick flashed a smile and looked down. “you have quite the taste. I think I should adapt to your favourite food henceforth…” She paused as he looked at her, and raised her eyebrows. “Don’t you think so?” “Sorry, but why?” Nick could not hold it in anymore, so he asked. “You’ll find out soon. Let’s eat,” She tucked her hair behind her ear as she picked up the spoon and began eating “Why aren’t you eating?” “Oh… I’ll eat now,” Nick finally started eating, Lisa’s heart raced in her chest as she admired this handsome man sitting in front of her. All effort to get her eyes off him all proved abortive, so she just allowed herself to stare at him all she could even though it was making him uncomfortable. “Have you been working with my brother for long?” She asked out of the blue moon, and he paused. “Yes… Quite some time now,” His reply was brief. “Oh,” She just muttered. Lisa tried to think of something to say, but with him in front of her, it was difficult to think straight. “So, tell me… Do you have a girlfriend?” She didn’t hesitate to ask the question she was curious to ask, and he looked at her with his eyes narrowed in shock
“Excuse me?” He blinked his eyes rapidly and cutely. “It doesn’t matter, anyway. I’m a straightforward young lady, so I will go straight to the point…” She paused then picked up a glass of water and sipped from it and sighed. “I like you, Nick. I’ve not been able to stop myself from thinking about you ever since I saw you. It doesn’t matter if you have a woman in your life at the moment.
