The Prodigy Boy Is Actually A 25 Old Girl!?

"You must be thrilled to meet your father at last."

"Well… to tell you the truth, I don't know. If he is my father, why didn't he come looking for me? I guess… my father doesn't want me either."

"Like you said. There's only one way to find out. You better go and find out the truth."

"I wish you could accompany me."

"..." Roxy wanted to accompany him, especially the man who had accompanied her when she needed someone. But… "By train?"

"..." Declan sighed in resignation, hearing that. "Wouldn't your cute buttocks hurt if you sat for tens of hours?"

"Declan, it's not like I don't want to accompany you. But, I… even though I've returned and accepted the past, I'm still not ready if…."

"I get it." Declan stroked the side of Roxy's head gently. "I will miss you." Declan shifted closer to shower her face with his loving kisses.

Roxy giggled as she let Declan kiss her. "Isn't it just a few days? I will wait for you here."

"Of course. You can't go back to your old apartment."

"Alright, alright." Roxy didn't plan to return to her apartment either way. She was too used to living at Declan's house.

"It's late. We'd better get some sleep. I want to take you on a date tomorrow."

Roxy agreed and closed the media player on her laptop. Regrettably, she didn't listen to the audio recording sent by Kei. Roxy would have known right away that the cellist who emailed her was her sister if she had listened to it.

Roxy would know that her sister was still alive because the only ones who knew Kaylee's 'ugly' song were Roxy and Kaylee.

The next day, Declan and Roxy had a pleasant date without feeling anything suspicious. They shopped for a while at the mall, then ate burgers while sitting in the park like any other couple did.

In the middle of their date, Roxy's phone vibrated, and a restless voice was heard as Roxy picked up the call.

"Lydia? What happened?" Roxy straightened herself and listened intently to the caller. The next second she turned to Declan with a raised eyebrow, making Declan wonder what happened.

Declan had heard the name 'Lydia' come out of Roxy's mouth, and he wondered if the Lydia in question was Lydia Brewster?

He remembered his deal with Nicholas, and he had promised to take care of the girl in that boy's place. Declan had settled Aubrey to become Lydia's attendant and ensured the girl's grandmother's care was covered.

"Where are you now?" Declan heard his wife asking Lydia. "Okay, you wait there. I'll be there soon." as soon as Roxy put her phone back, she stood up. "Declan, take me to this place."

Declan devoured the last bite of his burger and agreed to her request. But he didn't expect an accusation to come out of her mouth.

"What did you do to Lydia's grandmother?"

"Ha? What have I done? What happened?"

"There was an unfortunate incident in Lydia's grandmother's patient room this morning. A patient died, and the name on the room was Lydia's grandmother's name. But, oddly enough… the corpse Lydia saw wasn't her grandmother, but someone else. She said a girl named Aubrey, who worked for Oscar Security, claimed to have moved her grandmother to a safer room. Now she's confused."

"…"

"Declan, what exactly happened? Are you hiding something from me?"

"Blame on the boy. It's because of him."

"That boy? Who?"

"Larson. He asked me to take care of his girlfriend while he wasn't here."

"Oh, I remember. But why did something like this happen?"

"Larson is the son of Hades IV. Automatically he has enemies everywhere. He was worried that something might happen to Lydia or her grandmother, so he asked the OS for help to protect her."

"But you should have told Lydia first if you wanted to move her grandmother. Now she was confused and panicked in searching for her granny."

"..." Declan didn't answer for a few seconds. "You're right. My bad."

The truth is, Aubrey was already aware of the existence of a stranger who had been after Lydia. They had met Lydia in person and told the girl to get out of the country and stop contacting Nicholas.

Lydia didn't want to leave the country because she didn't want to leave her hospitalized grandmother. The older woman had no hope of life, and she had less than a year left.

That's why Lydia didn't want to go even though she didn't mind not contacting Nick. They even threatened her by using her grandmother to make Lydia feel scared and worried.

Fortunately, Aubrey showed up in time and made those who met Lydia in person and threatened her to back off. Since then, Aubrey always appeared whenever Lydia went, and the two had become friends.

And a few days ago, Aubrey reported that someone wanted to target Lydia's grandmother to scare the girl. Luckily they reacted quickly and transferred Lydia's grandmother to a safer place. Nevertheless, they did not change the nameplate in the room and were forced to use another victim.

Not that Declan was heartless using other people as bait. By chance, he came across a patient who had been brain dead for a long time and had no hope. Her family had also given up and signed a letter of termination of treatment.

That's why Declan used this patient but kept her treatment running and protected her. Declan and Aubrey acted as if the patient in the room was Lydia's grandmother.

Unfortunately, despite being guarded and protected, this patient remained a victim of premeditated murder. No one knows how the perpetrator did it. Was he disguised as a doctor? Or the nurse injecting something into the victim?

"I hope her grandma is okay." a voice filled with worry echoed and broke Declan's reverie. "I heard she only had her grandmother at the moment. I can't imagine if she had to lose her only family member."

"You don't know?" Declan was surprised because it seemed that Roxy didn't know about Lydia's grandmother's illness.

"What do I not know?"

"Her grandmother only has about eight months to live."

"…"
