Love the Second Time Around

Chapter 65 To Gain An Experience

I was mostly afraid of causing trouble for Nicholas. After all, the fashion show had to be swarming with journalists.

I thought about it for a while. In the end, my curiosity prevailed.

I used to watch male and female models walk the runway on television, so it would definitely be a thrill to have a chance to watch it live.

After we reached an agreement, I left.

When I returned to the hotel, it suddenly occurred to me that I never told Nicholas that I wanted to be at the set. So how did he know about it?

I figured he must have heard it from Flash and thought nothing more of it.

After dinner, while my father was chatting jovially with his students, I waved at Mom and stole softly out of the room.

Dad never saw me leave, but someone else sure did. Louis followed behind me and came running after me.

I told him to go back, but he refused. He said that if I didn’t take him along with me, he would go back and report to Dad. If that were to happen, neither of us would be able to leave.

I was speechless for a moment. In the end, I decided to give Nicholas a call.

I can’t bring my brother along without asking Nicholas.

I spoke with Nicholas on the phone, and without another second of delay, he agreed to have my brother tag along. He asked me to wait at the hotel entrance, and he was going to come and pick us up.

After the phone call, I glared at my brother fiercely and said, “Someone will be here to pick us up. Once we’re there, stay close to me and don’t wander around. I’ll skin you alive if you cause any trouble.”

Louis replied nonchalantly, “How old do you think I am, Lili? Why do you think I want to follow you? I don’t want to stick around with Dad, and it’s boring to be alone. Why are you acting so mysterious anyway? Are you going on a date with a celebrity? Or are you meeting up with country leaders?”
