The Prodigy Boy Is Actually A 25 Old Girl!?
Chapter 266 - Ch. 266 Declan's TermsRoxy knew she had agreed to her marriage to Declan. She didn't even mind marrying the man, but she certainly didn't expect the whole family and Declan to be so enthusiastic about planning their wedding.
Roxy felt her head filled with fireflies which made her head dizzy to hear her family's discussion with Declan. They even discussed a suitable romantic venue for their wedding reception.
It's not that Roxy isn't happy, but should she let someone else control her life again??
Roxy liked to write her own stories, and she often did the opposite of what her parents told her to do.
Even if she desperately desired to marry Declan and become the man's official wife, that doesn't mean she wants to get married anytime soon!
The old Roxy would positively rebel and reject all the ideas they were discussing. She felt proud that she was now more mature and could refrain from letting her emotions take over.
But… she still couldn't stay still.
"Uhm… Declan, can we talk? Alone?"
Declan glanced at Roxy with a questioning look before excusing himself and following Roxy out of the dining room.
"What is it?"
"You've never mentioned this."
"About what? Our marriage? I did try to tell you, but you were too focused on drawing for your parents' gift, and I didn't want to interfere with your work."
"It's still your fault."
Declan chuckled, amused at the girl's sulking tone. "Alright, it's my fault. I'm sorry."
"Declan. Can we postpone our wedding? I mean, the next summer is too fast for me."
"Until when?"
"Maybe… three years?"
Declan's eyebrows rose at Roxy's hand, which was raised and showing her three fingers.
"You can't be serious. Three years?"
"How about two and a half?" she tried to negotiate as if she bargained for the price.
"Reason?"
"You know I'm still in college right now and also…."
"Hold on right there." cut Declan. "What do you mean you're still in college?"
"Did you forget I took Nick's place for college?"
"…"
"I have to go to campus and finish what I started. If we get married now, I won't be able to go to college if I'm pregnant." Roxy knew very well that Declan would go all the way once they got married, considering this man's satiety was endless.
What's more, both her parents and in-law also wanted to see their first grandchild as soon as possible since both parties had only an only child.
"The last time I checked, Nicholas Larson has left the country, and he certainly did not need to go to campus."
"But the one who registered using his name was me in the first place. Plus, the other kids would wonder if I suddenly disappeared without a word. Even though Nick isn't here anymore, I'm the one in charge and will finish this college term."
"What if I don't allow it? Why would you bother going to college again when you already got your certificate? You also had a great career, and your co-workers have left you. Shouldn't you focus more on your work? Why are you prioritizing the education you've been to?"
"That…"
"Roxy, if you didn't tell me the real reason, I would never agree to it."
"Are you my father? Why should I seek your approval?"
"I am your husband."
"Future husband." corrected Roxy.
"Still your husband. Will you disobey if I don't permit you?"
"What would you do if I did?"
"Don't test my limit, love."
"You have a limit? I've never seen it."
"Roxane." Declan's voice sounded lower and deeper than usual when he called her name.
"Fine. The truth is… I love campus life. I mean… the whole group, the class, and hanging out with some friends, I've never felt it before. When I entered college a few years ago, it was 'Kaylee' inside me who did it. And she never hangs out with friends or… you know, did something challenging. I'm a free-spirited girl, and I want to do whatever I dreamed of before I got married. Please?"
Declan looked at Roxy and saw how much Roxy wanted to continue her disguise as Nicholas Larson.
"It doesn't have to be at the M University, right. If you want to experience campus life, why not major in designer? I thought your dream was to be a fashion designer."
"That's a good idea, but… I don't want to be a designer anymore. I have another dream now."
"What is it?"
"To be your wife," Roxy responded with the sweetest smile she had ever shown and a soft tone that could captivate a certain heart.
"Are you bribing me?"
"Can I bribe you, though? Besides, how will we meet if I move to another campus? I chose to stay at M university so I could have an illicit relationship with you."
Declan was speechless.
This beloved girl of his really knows how to turn his heart upside down by her words only. How could Roxy say the sweetest yet poisonous statements at the same time?
"You want to amplify the bad rumors about me. I believe you're the only one who has the gut to pull my legs."
"Because you love me too much and will do whatever I wish." Roxy blinked her eyes several times, making Declan no longer able to fight back.
"Alright, you win." his announcement made Roxy squeal in delight.
Roxy circled her hands to Declan's neck to give a quick peck on his lips.
"Thank you, hubby."
"Don't be too happy. I have some conditions for you."
"Okay. Tell me." Roxy would follow all the requirements of the man as long as Declan allows her to continue staying at M University.
"First, you need to finish it in two years and not more than that."
"I can do that. What's the second?"
"You should change to a piano major."
"What?"
"Your guitar playing is horrible, and it would ruin our campus's image." his blunt word invited a pout on her lips. "And the last one…."
"Still more?" Roxy suddenly regretted agreeing that she would comply with all of the man's terms.
"You will tell your family about delaying our wedding by yourself."
"…" This future husband of hers is… too heartless!
