Chapter 215 - Ch. 215 I'm Irresistable

Even though Declan accidentally forgets his sister's birthday, Letti didn't blame him and enjoyed this modest birthday celebration with her friends.

Declan and Roxy looked at the items in the online shop to choose a birthday present for Letti. After finding what they liked, Declan directly bought it and sent it to Campbell's house.

Roxy chatted casually with Letti's parents, but her mind would linger around Wendy and Nick's situation every now and then. Declan noticed his vixen wife became quiet and occasionally lost in a daze and did not pay attention to what they were talking about.

He wanted to know what was troubling Roxy's mind, but he decided to wait so he could have a private talk with her. Plus, he didn't want to destroy the cheerful mood on his sister's birthday.

"Jake, why didn't you tell me Mr. Black is your uncle?"

"Why should I tell you? You didn't ask anyway." Jacob answered in his most matter-of-fact tone, making Adam roll his eyes lazily.

"Btw, Nick isn't coming?" one of Letti's friends named Vienna asked curiously.

She heard from Letti that the girl had also invited her music group, which meant that both campus idols would also come. But after waiting since her arrival almost half an hour ago, there was no sign of the young man's appearance.

Plus, all of Letti's music group members had arrived except for Nick. Of course, this made Vienna and Letti's two other friends feel curious as they were the most excited to meet Nick.

"I'm also curious. I thought he would come with you," added Letti as she remembered Jacob was the closest with Nick.

"I ran into him this afternoon," came his reply. "He had an urgent business, so he couldn't come. He apologized for not joining us."

Letti sighed in disappointment, but her three friends seemed more disappointed because they had a long face now.

What can she do? Letti knew her friends hoped to meet the campus idol. They were all majoring in singing, while Nick was majoring in strings which meant they rarely saw each other except for music literature lessons.

And even then, the literature classroom was highly crowded, and Nick always sat with Jacob and the others. The more assertive and bolder girls directly sat next to Nick without letting other women close to Nick.

They thought that coming to Letti's birthday party would give them a chance to be close to Nicholas Larson. Who would have thought the young man didn't even come?

Ah, they were jealous of Letti and yet felt proud because the singer chosen by Nick's music team was their friend. Letti could chat with phenomenal boys and two campus idols freely and whenever she wants.

Unaware of her friends' disappointment, Letti strikes a conversation with Jacob.

"Jacob, how do you know Miss Zouch? Why do I feel you two are so close?"

"She's Nick's second sister." before Jacob answered, Adam beat him to it. "She also came to our music battle night."

"Oh yeah?" does that mean Kaylee Zouch has seen her sing too? Pondered Letti.

"But I never knew Nicholas had two sisters. Their surnames are different." inquired Seleina with great interest.

"Well, Kaylee and Miss Larson are close friends since childhood. So basically, Kaylee has seen Nick ever since the boy learned to walk." Jacob replied casually as if his unexpected answer was the daily news. "How about you, Letti? I never expected you to know my uncle... I mean, Mr. Black."

"Mr. Black is RSH's pianist, and my mother happened to know him. So my mother asked Mr. Black to teach me as soon as she noticed I had an interest in playing the piano."

"You can play the piano?" Fritz's eyes sparkled even more as he admired Letti even more.

"A little. But not as good as Nick."

Well, Letti was a better pianist than Nick because the real Nick couldn't play the piano. But if she dealt with Roxy in disguise, Letti needed a thousand years to reach Roxy's stage.

They enjoyed the dinner full of joy and laughter. Declan did try to talk to his wife to distract whatever was bothering Roxy.

And yet, his eagle-like eyes probed his little sister's gaze to find out which young man had his beloved sister's attention.

Unfortunately, he didn't find any signs of affection when he saw Letti talking to her friends. The girl even treated everyone equally, as if Letti had no emotions for the boys.

Either the girl did like Nick, who happened couldn't make it, or the girl hid her feelings well.

He preferred the latter because he didn't want his sister to fall in love with Hades IV's son.

"Dec, until when will you stop stealing a glimpse of your sister?" Even the concern-filled Roxy, who worried about her friend noticed her lover's glance at the side table.

How could she not notice it? Every five seconds, the man's eagle eyes would glance to the other side.

Even though Roxy had other issues on her mind, she never focused on that one spot and remained perceptive to her surroundings. That's why she could still notice Declan's eyes glancing at his sister.

"You noticed it?"

"Of course. Are you still thinking about the boy your sister likes?" Roxy probed her elbow on the table while leaning her chin on her knuckle elegantly. "Seeing the way she looks at her friends, it seems like she likes Nick. What can I say? I have irresistible charms." giggled the vixen girl left Declan speechless.

Roxy turned to Declan, looking at her with a frowning look that made it very clear that he didn't like her words.

"You said yourself that I'm irresistible," added her with a matter-of-fact and overly proud tone.

"…" I did say it, but it was for me only!

"And besides, Letti only sees Nick as a friend. If she likes Nick… or me more than a friend, I'll know. Don't be a worrywart. She's not a baby." coaxed Roxy couldn't bear to see the man's desperate expression any longer.

She felt that this man would find Nick and make her best friend's brother vanish from Letti's presence if his sister had a crush on the young man.

Roxy embraced Declan's sturdy arm while giving a gentle caress over his muscles. She even gave a sweet smile that was hard for any man to resist.

One hand went up and touched Declan's face only to make him turn his head to look at her because he was glancing at Letti again. Then…

"Whooosh… look at them!" exclaimed Seleina in a choked-whisper tone made everyone turn towards Declan and Roxy.

Letti and Vienna smiled sheepishly as they covered their mouths, laughing amusedly while Adam and Fritz gave a playful whistle that made everyone laugh.

Right now, Roxy pulled Declan's face towards hers and gave him a hot and passionate kiss regardless of everyone watching them.

She doesn't even care about her image as the meek and classy Kaylee Zouch, even though they were currently together with the Campbell family and college friends.

Roxy pulled away only to catch her breath and then said something in a shallow voice to make sure only Declan could hear her.

"Even if it's your dear sister, I can't accept you looking at her more than me."

Declan smirked slyly and tugged at the nape of Roxy's neck as he still wasn't satisfied with her cherry-like lips.

Mr. Campbell shook his head with an amused smile while Letti and her friends were getting excited in their place.

No one thought that the cold, aloof professor who was said to be gay turned out to be a straight guy with a beautiful, passionate lover. Everyone looked at the lovebird with interest, including Jacob.

The only different thing was that Jacob looked at Roxy with a surprised look. As he recalled, Kaylee was not a daring person, let alone initiate a passionate kiss. Nevertheless, he was also happy for the couple.

The rest of the program went well, and this time Declan didn't care about the young man who caught his sister's attention. His mood was too content, thanks to Roxy, that he didn't want to spoil his mood with anyone trying to steal his little sister from him.

After saying goodbye to each other and letting the youngsters continue the evening with their program, Roxy and Declan decided to head home.

"I want to go to Wendy's house," stated Roxy as soon as the two got into the car.

"Stay with me tonight," persuaded Declan for umpteenth time until she lost counts.

"Alright. But I still need to go to her house."

"Why?"

"There's something I need to confirm."

Declan agreed because Roxy was already willing to stay with him tonight. It was enough for him as long as he could keep her by his side.

He would also persuade her for it tomorrow and the next day and so on so that she couldn't help but stay with him until they got married. It was the same thing with she moved in with him, even though the girl didn't want to admit it.

Either way worked for him, though.

He is proud of himself for being clever!
