    Chapter 568 It Caught Your Eye?


    As expected, Nicole obediently nodded once she learned she was too young to apply makeup.


    “All right. I’ll stay here.”


    Mary waved her hand in dismissal at ric and Victoria. “Go ahead. Don’t worry about Nicole and


    Nathan. I’ll look after them.”


    Once ric and Victoria were out of sight, Nicole raised her head and looked at Mary.


    “Grandma, can I use makeup when I grow up?”

    Mary flicked her granddaughter’s nose in affection. Her voice and tone were gentle when she said, “Of


    course. You can dress up however you want when you grow up.”


    Mary’s words reassured Nicole, who was already looking forward to such a promised future. “Grandma,


    you’ll buy many cosmetics for me in the future, right?”


    Almost every girl fantasized about buying a whole lot of cosmetics once they were older.


    “Of course. I’d be d to buy cosmetics for you. How do you like that, Nicole?”


    The girl replied with a kiss on Mary’s cheek.


    The airport was spacious.


    ric and Victoria were an attractive couple. When the pair walked among the crowd, the people


    around them. couldn’t help but turn their heads in the pair’s direction.


    A girl couldn’t help but take out her phone to film the couple.


    Feeling the girl’s gaze on her, Victoria whispered to ric, “Somebody is filming us.”


    At that, he followed her gaze and looked in the direction of the onlooker. True enough, a girl was filming


    them


    with her phone.


    Getting caught red–handed, the girl turned away in embarrassment.


    ric nced at her once before withdrawing his gaze. Since the pair didn’t outrightly protest, the girl


    once


    again pointed her phone at them.


    ric shifted his attention back to Victoria. He lowered his head and asked, “Do you mind?”


    She pursed her lips. “I don’t mind it. What about you?”


    After all, she wasn’t some kind of celebrity. Besides, they were in public. Therefore, she had no qualms


    with a


    stranger filming her.

    However, just because she was fine with it didn’t necessarily mean ric agreed with her.


    To her surprise, he curled his lips and chuckled. “What a coincidence. I don’t mind it either.”


    Victoria blinked a few times. Since both of them didn’t mind having their pictures taken, she saw no


    point in stopping the others.


    She looked in the girl’s direction. Suddenly, the girl got all excited. Before Victoria couldprehend


    the sudden change in the girl’s mood, she felt ric bend down. Then, he lowered his head and gave


    her a peck on


    the lips.


    The tender sensation and his hot breath surprised her..


    When her senses returned, she raised her head, meeting his dark eyes in confusion. He knows they’re


    taking pictures of us, yet he…


    Locking eyes with her, ric smiled. “Since both of us don’t mind, I feel like kissing you even though


    people are filming us.”


    Victoria was speechless upon hearing that. Well, I indeed don’t mind them filming us. However, it


    doesn’t mean I’m fine with them filming us kissing.


    She involuntarily turned in the girl’s direction again as the thought struck her.


    This time, the girl wasn’t paying attention to them. After she caught the scene–in which ric kissed


    Victoria -on her phone, she shared the video with herpanion. The two were screaming in


    excitement as if the


    contents of the video thrilled them.


    When Victoria saw that, she shook her head in resignation. Whatever! It’s not a big deal. Besides, it


    seems like the girls mean no harm. They only took pictures of us because we looked like a good


    match, right?


    Fortunately, ric aimed for the corner of her lips for a kiss earlier. Will I be okay if the video spreads


    around the web? Yeah, I will. I’m not ashamed if some strangers see it.


    Victoria could tell ric was doing it on purpose. He only kissed her for show as he had discovered


    that somebody was filming them.


    Once his intention became clear to her, Victoria stared at him in disbelief. “Who are you? A celebrity?


    What’s the point of such a disy of affection? We’re just ordinary people. Even if she shares the video


    online, nobody is


    interested in watching it.”


    ric shrugged at that. “It doesn’t matter. I don’t care about the views. What matters most is that I get


    to see


    them.”


    Then, he let go of her waist and walked toward the girls. “Wait a moment.”


    Victoria initially wanted to follow him, but his words rooted her to the spot. Fine. I’ll keep out of it and


    just wait here. I’m tired of walking around, anyway.


    Therefore, she watched him walk away.


    At first, the girls were looking at the phone in excitement. However, their smiles froze on their faces


    when they. noticed ric was approaching them. The owner of the phone hid her phone behind her


    without a second thought.


    A few secondster, the girls realized that their behavior was improper. Therefore, once ric stood


    right before them, the pair handed the phone to him with dejected expressions.


    Victoria watched them, and questions arose in her mind. Wasn’t he putting on a public disy of


    affection? Why is he approaching them? Is he trying to delete the video? If he’s asking them to delete


    the video, he could’ve forbidden them from shooting a video from the very beginning. What does he


    want?


    She wasn’t near enough to hear their conversation, but she saw his lips move as he talked to the girls.


    As he talked, smiles reappeared on the girls‘ faces. Their eyes were twinkling in wonderment, and they


    looked as if they couldn’t believe their ears.


    After that, ric took out his phone. The first girl talked to him as she looked down at her phone.


    Victoria frowned slightly at the sight. She wasn’t aware that she had pursed her lips into a thin line.


    She was familiar with the scene. It was one where someone would hit on the other party on the streets.


    They would then exchange contact information.


    ric and the girl are doing the same, no?


    The unexpected kiss earlier gave Victoria butterflies. However, her mood immediately darkened as she


    looked at their interaction. A thunderous expression appeared on her face as her patience


    disappeared.


    What is taking him so long? You know what? I’m not waiting for him any longer. I’ll go get the lipstick


    myself.


    At that, Victoria scanned her surroundings. There was a cosmetic store nearby. Ignoring ric’s


    reminder, she


    went over to the store.


    She had no patience for the man anymore and decided to shop on her own.


    There weren’t many people in the store. Every staff member was attending to a certain customer at the


    moment, so they paid no mind to Victoria when she came inside. As for Victoria, she was fine with no


    attention


    on her. She walked along, browsing through the lipsticks.


    There were various colors of lipsticks to choose from these days. Even the same color scheme could


    develop


    nto different colors for different asions.


    Victoria followed some makeup influencers on TikTok. When her gazended on one of the lipsticks,


    she


    recalled the influencer’s remark on it, which said such color could charm a guy easily.


    It had a rosy tint to it.


    She zoned out as she looked at the lipstick. At that moment, a low voice interrupted her thoughts.


    “It caught your eye?”
