Love the Second Time Around Novel

Chapter 45

Chapter 45 Contrast

Nicholas stared at the microphone in surprise for a moment before saying with a smile, “Sure! I’m pretty good at this song!”

Oh, that’s right! Nicholas is very good at both acting and singing! Crap, am I overestimating myself by inviting him to a duet with me? I don’t want to end up embarrassing myself in front of him!

James didn’t expect me to invite Nicholas to a duet; he was evidently stunned for a brief moment. He then tried to snatch the microphone from me, but I stepped out of the way before he could reach it.

“What? You wanted me to sing, didn’t you? Why are you trying to stop me from singing now?”

“I’m trying to save your dumb ass right now, Liliana!” James muttered with a solemn look on his face.

I instinctively turned toward Dominic when I heard that, and he looked like he was about to explode from anger.

What the hell is his problem? Is he that angry at me for not singing with him? I mean… He didn’t say he wanted to sing, so…

“Hey, Liliana! I’ll restart the song, okay? We missed the first part,” Nicholas spoke up all of a sudden.

“Okay!” I replied without any hesitation, only to feel a chill travel down my spine.

James let out a helpless sigh as he watched from the side, much to my annoyance.

What? I’m singing a song like he asked me to! Why can’t I sing it with someone other than Dominic?

The music began playing once again, and Nicholas shot me a glance to remind me of it starting.

I nodded at him in acknowledgment. Despite it being a fun session, I simply couldn’t shake the pressure of singing with someone like him.

Suddenly, I felt a warm sensation on my left hand that was trembling from nervousness. Nicholas had gripped my hand with his own.
