Dare To Love The Chubby Nerd CHAPTER 181: GROWING PAINS
CLARA'S POV"No," I said. It came out so fast that I almost didn't hear myself. "No, you have the wrong person."Philip tilted his head. "Are you sure? You look just like him and the picture on his—""I'm sure.""Sorry, it's just that you could be a younger version of my boss. Same face, same eyes." He rubbed the back of his neck and laughed. "Matthew Adene. Do you know him?""I don't know any Matthew Adene," I lied, my voice turning stiff and sharp. "Excuse me, I have to go."I pushed right past him through the door, the small bell chiming loudly behind me.I hurried outside and got into the back seat of the black Hilux. John looked at me through the rearview mirror, but he didn't ask any questions. He just pulled out into the street and drove back toward the estate.That man knew my father. I thought as we drove home.Just hearing his name out loud made my hands shake. I didn't want him back in my life, or at least not right now. I didn't
Dare To Love The Chubby Nerd CHAPTER 180: A FAMILIAR FACE
CLARA'S POVWe both froze, staring at each other.Mrs. King pulled her hand away from her mouth, her face turning pale as she quickly wiped her cheeks with the sleeve of her robe. I took a step back, my heart pounding, ready to turn around and run back upstairs."I'm sorry," I stammered, holding my phone tight. "I thought Becca was in here."I turned to walk away, but I stopped at the door. I looked back over my shoulder at her. Her eyes were so bloodshot, and her shoulders were shaking softly under her expensive silk robe."Mrs. King?" I asked quietly. "Is everything okay?""I'm fine," she said, her voice raspy and thin. She grabbed a paper towel from the counter and pressed it against her eyes. "I'm completely fine, Clara. Go back to your room."I didn't say another word. I slipped out through the swinging wooden doors and ran right into Becca, who was walking out of the staff quarters with a stack of clean aprons."Clara?" Becca whispered, her eyes
Dare To Love The Chubby Nerd CHAPTER 179: NEW WAVE
CLARA'S POV"Hi," I said. "Hey. Um."I laughed at myself and started again. "Okay. Hi, my name is Clara. I'm a student, an artist and a fashion designer. This is my first video, so please be nice."I pushed my hair behind my ear. "I'm one of the fifteen finalists in the Sterling Heights Youth Fashion Collective, and I have a brand called Aura Sports Collection. I make sportswear. Last night I made a whole pink tracksuit set in one night, and today I delivered it to a customer, and it fits perfectly."I held up a scrap of pink fabric and showed it to the camera. "This is my first video, so please subscribe, like and shop with us. Thanks."I pressed stop and watched it right away.It was terrible. My hair was flat on one side. The lamp turned my whole face yellow, and the dark circles under my eyes looked painted on. My forehead was cut off at the top of the screen. I said "um" nine times, and my voice shook so much that I sounded like I was about to cry.
Dare To Love The Chubby Nerd CHAPTER 178: RIGHT ON TIME
CLARA’S POV"We can just run to the fabric store right now," Jaxson said, looking down the street. "The large craft warehouse down by the town square is still open for two more hours.""What about Lily?" I asked, looking down at her. "I can't just leave her, and your mum will kill me if she finds out."Lily squeezed my hand hard and looked up at me with wide eyes. "I promise I won't say a word, Clara! Cross my heart! Please let me go with you!"Jaxson walked over to the black Hilux idling at the curb. He knocked on the driver's window and talked to the driver in a low voice for a minute. The driver looked back at Lily, nodded, and hit the door unlock button."He said it's fine," Jaxson called back. "We just have to be quick so we get back before five thirty."We all jumped into the back seat of the Hilux. The driver stepped on the gas, turning out of the estate and heading straight toward the town square.We made it to the craft warehouse in ten minutes. I sprinted inside with Jaxson
Dare To Love The Chubby Nerd CHAPTER 177: PINK TROUBLE
JAXSON’S POVOn top of the flyers was a small white box tied with a blue ribbon.I opened the lid, and a row of tiny, hoodie-shaped sugar cookies lay inside. Each one had AURA iced across the front in neat letters. In the corner of the box sat one extra cookie, a little bigger than the others, with a pink L."Every house gets one," I said. "Maya and I made them as a surprise. People remember sweet things."Lily stared at the pink cookie, and her whole face lit up. "For me?""The one with the L, yeah, that's yours," I said, handing it to her.“Awww, this is so nice,” Clara said, smiling. "Thank you so much, Jaxson.”Under the cookies sat a neat stack of thick white business cards. I lifted them out and handed the pile to Clara.They had her name, AURA SPORTS COLLECTION, her email, and a tiny QR code printed right in the middle.Clara looked at the cards, then at the flyers, her eyes widening. "Jaxson... how did you pay for all this? Business cards aren't cheap. And Maya's ...""I stil
Dare To Love The Chubby Nerd CHAPTER 176: FIRST STEP
CLARA’S POV"What’s the idea?" I asked, a little nervous."We go outside and tell people about it," Lily said. "We just tell them.""Lily, that’s not how it works. You can’t walk up to strangers and...""Then we start with my walks." She held up one finger. "It’s spring now, so it isn’t cold anymore. I want to start my walks again. I already told Mommy, and she said I can do whatever makes me happy, since Jaxson isn’t around."She said it so simply that my eyes stung. "Wait," I said slowly. "That’s actually a good idea.""I told you.""We could walk around the estate, and people would see us, and...""And you can draw your clothes in a little book," Lily said, talking faster because she was excited. "You’re good at drawing. You put your designs in the book, and we give pages to people we see on the road. We tell them you can make those clothes, and you can sew things for them."For a second I couldn’t speak. Then I grabbed her, lifted her right of

He stared at me. I stared right back. Our eyes fixed on each other. The world did not end, though it felt like it should have. His mouth opened. "What the hell?" he screamed. "Adene? Is this a joke? Are you stalking me now?" "Jaxson." Maria appeared behind him, but her eyes moved straigh

I stared at the screen until the light burned my eyes. Removed from the W******p group. Then from the squad. What for? What was my offense? My phone rang out. Maya was calling. I picked up. "Clara? Are you seeing this?" Maya’s voice was frantic. "I just saw the notification. I tried to message

I couldn’t speak.“She’s fading, Clara,” he continued. "Every hour we wait is an hour we don’t get back. If we delay much longer, she might not make it.”The doctor walked away to check on another patient."I’ll get the money, sir. I’ll try," I whispered as he went.My phone buzzed in my hand. I lo
