    Chapter 1164


    Nics popped a cherry tomato into her chattering mouth, “You don’t understand. I’m getting to know


    the enemy. How can I go into battle without understanding them?”


    Trisha swallowed the tomato, then huffed, “You’re just jealous of their earnings and want a piece of the


    pie, aren’t you?”


    Nics, smiling, pinched her face, “Your little brain, how did it suddenly be so smart today?”


    Trisha shook off his hand, “Don’t I know you? The sight of money makes you lose control”


    Nics chuckled, “Shouldn’t that describe your good friend?”


    Trisha lightly kicked his shin. “Letti may like money, but she would never hurt a friend. What about you?


    How many times have you hurt Liam?”


    Nics defended. He was willing Leaming skills alwayse with a price”


    “You’ve only got rotten ideas in your head What skills do you have?”

    Nics smiled, “No matter how rotten my ideas are, as long as they work He picked up a piece of cut


    steak from the te and offered it to Trisha, “Why aren’t you with your good friend, but following me


    instead? Miss me?”


    Trisha paused, looking a bit guilty


    Nics thought he guessed her thoughts correctly and grinned, lowering his voice, ‘Could it be that you


    missed me the moment we were apart?”


    Trisha red at him, “Miss your head!” She hesitated, then stuttered, I’m scared Letti will hit me”


    “Why would she hit you?”


    Nics was confused. After asking in detail, Trisha told him what had happened


    “I tell you, my mouth can’t keep shut when I’m curious. Now Liam must be grilling Letti After he and


    Letti sort it out, Letti wille to settle the score with me


    As she spoke, she pped herself on the mouth.


    Nics quickly pulled her hand away, “You’ve said it. It was bound to happen. If you didn’t say it and


    Liam found out himself, he would be insanely jealous, and then all of us who know the truth would be in


    trouble.”


    Trisha still felt incredibly guilty but also a bit relieved, whispering, “Really?”


    Nics wrapped his arm around her shoulder, smiling, “What’s there to be afraid of? If the sky falls, I’ll


    hold it up for you.”


    Trisha’s guilt eased a little She turned to look at Nics, feeling a bit strange inside


    “Nics” She softly called him.


    Nics was tickled pink by her soft, mellow voice and tried to y it cool by lowering his head, “What’s


    up? Think I’m a real dish?”


    Trisha giggled, “From now on, we’re gonna be the best of pals. If you’ve got a problem,e to me. If


    I’m in a bind, Flle to you. Sound good?”


    Nics was speechless.


    His painstakingly constructed image just got friend–zoned?


    His previous courting tactics might have been off, as Trisha clearly wasn’t thinking along the lines of a


    romantic rtionship.


    Trisha nudged him gently with her elbow, “Hey. I’m trying to have a conversation here


    Nics came back to earth, gave her a nce, and suddenly reached out to cup her chin, shing a


    small smile, “Do you even know what pals‘ means?”


    Trisha was taken aback, not understanding his point.


    Nics leaned in close to her ear, “Pals could mean friends, but it could also mean bed buddies‘


    Trisha’s eyes bulged, and her ears quickly turned red. She hastily pushed Nics away


    Nics barely smirked, “Don’t just casually bandy about words like ‘pals with guys. In their ears, this is


    what it means.”
