章 550: An electric chair

"Nick, what are you doing here?" Jacob asked first, anxious to hear his answer.

He was not expecting Nick to appear in front of him. If he was not so distracted by that kiss, he would have seen him a mile away. He could have hidden behind a pillar or a wall before his brother had a chance to notice him.

But it was too late for him. He had no other choice but to find a way out of this mess. On the other hand, it was also his chance to determine if his brother was onto him. If he had any idea of what his secret was.

"I should be the one asking you that question." Nick smiled at his brother, confirming that he was hiding something from him. 

He could see a few telltale signs that he was nervous, but Jacob had a way of appearing calm. However, he was not leaving him alone until he got some answers.

"Well, I ask first." Jacob insisted as they stood in the middle of the lobby, acquiring a few stares from the few people lounging in the area.
