The Prodigy Boy Is Actually A 25 Old Girl!?

Roxy laid on the big bed facing the ceiling. When she decided to tell Declan everything, the man invited her in and was now in this room.

Of the many rooms, only this room was ready to be used as if Declan did tell the workers to complete this one room in case they wanted to be here.

Alas, someone called Declan, and now the man is answering his phone outside. Roxy tried to summon her alter ego while waiting for Declan, and as usual, she couldn't reach her.

'Where are you, Kaylee? I can't do this alone.'

Not long after, the bedroom door opened, and Declan walked in with an incomprehensible expression.

"What is it? Who contacted you?"

"I'll tell you later. What do you want to talk about?"

Roxy bit her lip to ease her doubts and fears about what the man's reaction would be like. Without realizing it, Declan had sat down next to her and pulled her lower lip down to release the biting.

"Don't bite it again. Your lips are almost torn off." Declan lowered his head to suck her lower lips gently as if he wanted to heal torn lips.

Roxy's heart rumbled and quivered in sweet delight as she received the man's attention.

What is she worried about? Hadn't she promised never to doubt his feelings again?

"Dec, do you remember Louisa telling me about your first love?"

"Yeah?"

"Will you believe if I told you I know who the girl is?"

"I will," answered Declan while taking a lock of Roxy's hair to tuck behind her earlobe. He massaged and stroked her earlobe as if giving Roxy's stiff muscles a stretch.

His gentle touch reached her heart and gave her courage.

"Aren't you curious?"

"Rather than me feeling curious, it seemed you wanted to tell me but felt reluctant."

Roxy couldn't answer it as his guess was accurate.

Declan positioned himself leaning against the headrest while stretching his hands toward his wife. "Come here." he wrapped his arms, enveloping the petite figure once she arrived at his range.

Roxy rested her head on Declan's chest and smiled slightly when she heard a steady and firm heartbeat. The gentle caress on the top of her head made her sigh in pleasure. This man's affectionate caring made her felt like she was in an incomparable serene place.

"To tell you the truth, I thought you were that girl. You play the same song, and the painting in your sketchbook shows me lying in the hospital. I was thrilled when I found out."

"What did it give away?"

"Every time we look at your work in your sketchbook, you always close it again before we reach the last page. And when you heard I met the girl in Spain, your face got blue. I knew right away that girl wasn't you."

"So… that's why you said she wasn't your first love? Because you don't want to make me sad?" Roxy raised her head to see the man's expression.

Declan shook his head in response to the question. "At first, I did think of her as my first love. I had never been in a relationship with anyone before and had never been in love. When there is someone who accompanies me and persuades me not to give up, I feel like someone is taking me out of my world of despair."

"You? You felt despair?"

"Of course, I'm not god. I haven't told you the reason I ran away from home, have I?"

Roxy shook her head. She remembered that Declan had promised to tell her, but they had forgotten about it, and Roxy had not sued him.

"Then let me tell you that first. It happened around ten years ago. It was my first day as a manager at BPE, and my father gave me a big project."

Declan felt capable of completing the project his father gave him because he had been trained by his father to continue BPE. He was too arrogant for an amateur and couldn't see human nature behind their fake masks.

When Declan managed to get two of the largest investors in the country to sponsor his project and was close to signing the agreement, his secretary informed him that their appointment venue had been changed.

He didn't know that his secretary had been bought by Victoria and set him up to thwart his meeting with the two investors. After waiting for several hours at the appointed place, Declan heard the news that two investors he was supposed to meet were now giving their funds to other companies.

Declan was shocked and didn't think that the two most expected investors would reject his offer because he didn't come and believed that Declan was not serious about the project he was offering.

Declan tried to contact his secretary, but that traitor has disappeared without leaving a trace.

His father and other shareholders highly anticipated this project. If no investors provide an injection of funds, this project must be postponed or use their funds.

Either way, they suffered losses significant enough to make the board of directors questioned Declan's ability to lead a company.

In addition, the fact that Declan was not Mr. Old Black's biological son got everyone against Declan to become the CEO of Black Pearl Enterprise.

Declan tried hard to be someone who deserves to be the only child of a Black, but the pressure of becoming one was too heavy for him. He felt he was aiming for unreachable goals because he knew he would never be a real Black.

But if he gave up now, wouldn't that mean he'd admit to the whole world that he wasn't a Black?

His biological mother had abandoned him, and he did not know where his biological father was now. He didn't even know if his father was still alive or not. The only thing he had was Letti, a sweet baby sister who accepted and adored him for who he is.

He knew his father and mother loved him now, but he didn't miss the look of disappointment from his father when the older man learned he had failed to secure the biggest investor.

The disappointment of Mr. Old Black must have been doubled because he was not his biological son.
