Chapter 661


    Chapter 661


    Liam was tenderly gazing at an image on his phone.


    Nics shot him a message, “Sometimes stepping back ain’t a bad move, dude Look at your ex–wife’s


    face. She seems bummed you’re not around”


    This strategy was indeed Nics‘ brainchild.


    Initially, Liam had intended to personally send Celeste off. But Nics argued that a little distance


    could make her miss him more.


    So he gritted his teeth and refrained from seeing her off


    And thus, he witnessed the disappointment in Celeste’s eyes


    It was worth it.


    Liam sent a file over to Nics


    It was a project coboration proposal.


    After seeing that, Nics said, “you’re a real fickle friend, huh? All it took was one nce from Celeste


    to get you to do what I’ve been asking for ages”


    “Uncuff me!‘ Trisha frowned, “I need to use the restroom”


    Nics tossed his phone aside and chuckled, “Just go like this. We’re all friends here, what’s there to


    be scared of?”


    Trisha shot him a re, “Unlock these handcuffs, or I’ll make you my enemy!”


    Nicsmented, “Such a brute.”


    And with that, he started rummaging through his drawer


    Two minutester.


    “Have you found it yet?‘ Trisha asked.


    “Seems like it’s in a box.”


    Nics went on to search for the box.


    Five minutester


    Trisha was getting antsy. “Still haven’t found it?”


    Nics scratched his head, “Maybe it’s in the bedroom?”


    Ten minutester


    Trisha was fuming. “Where the hell did you put the key?”


    Nics awkwardly admitted, “I forgot.”


    So Nics dragged her along as they searched everywhere.


    Half an hourter


    Trisha was beet–red from holding in her pee. “You blockhead, are you doing this on purpose?”


    “I really forgot where it is, maybe I should call the fire department to open it?”


    “Do you want me to die of embarrassment? Trisha snapped


    Nics helplessly replied, Then what do you suggest?”


    Trisha looked miserable. She had no solutions, and she didn’t know how to pick locks


    Most importantly, she was about to pee. Whether or not she’d be embarrassed was secondary to the


    fact that she was about to explode.


    She kept silent, one hand pressing on the handcuffs while the other exerted all force to pull them off


    The handcuffs looked like toys but were incredibly sturdy Within a few moments, Trisha’s wrist was red


    Nics grabbed her hand, “Just go to the restroom first, I’ll close my eyes”


    With teary eyes, Trisha adamantly refused, “No!”


    N?velDrama.Org owns this.


    Just because he couldn’t see didn’t mean he couldn’t hear, right?


    Using the restroom in front of a guy, how could she ever show her face again?


    However, soon she realized that holding in her pee was a lot more torturous.


    Nics presented a pair of headphones, “How about I wear these?”


    He then turned up the volume to the max and let Trisha test it out, “Can you hear anything?”


    He then stuffed the headphones into his ears and tossed his phone onto the coffee table, “Let’s go, I


    won’t be able to hear anything”


    Trisha wanted to hold it in a little longer, but she just couldn’t


    She yanked Nics toward the restroom


    Nics had his back to Trisha with headphones on. He couldn’t see her, but he could sense her


    movements


    The music in his headphones was loud and stabbed at his eardrums, yet his thoughts uncontrobly


    drifted toward her


    Thinking about what she was doing, his ears suddenly felt hot.


    He rubbed his ears uneasily, trying his best to focus on the music
