Nick was too shocked that he couldn't find the words. Never did he imagine Lydia would understand what he was saying and heard all the conversations he had with the person on the other side.
"You… you can understand what I was saying earlier?"
"My grandmother came from the south, so sometimes we speak the language. So why Mr. Larson wants you guys home? Isn't Mr. Larson lives in LA? He doesn't need to kidnap your sister, right."
"..." Nick didn't answer and went back to chewing his food deliciously as if Lydia hadn't asked him.
"Nicholas, I'm asking you."
Nick gave a full of mystery smile before turning to ask. "Will you marry me?"
Lydia's pair of brown eyes widened when she heard the young man's question. Aren't they discussing Wendy's leaving? Why did the young man suddenly propose to her?
She hadn't even reciprocated the young man's feelings yet!
