When The Family Reads The Fake Heiress Mind novel Chapter 183

Finished

Ludwig raised an eyebrow at her words, his tone lightly curious. He seemed to actually consider it, a faint gleam flickering in his sharp eyes. ”

Jean shut her mouth and didn’t say anything else.

“Actually, you look more like one,” Ludwig concluded after a moment, a smile tugging at his lips.

The two of them kept chatting non–stop as they walked blending right in with the amusement park crowd, completely immersed in the carefree, sunny atmosphere.

It almost made Jean forget what they were here for.

Plenty of passersby threw curious glances their way, eyes full of confusion and intrigue.

And no wonder — Jean’s current appearance was bound to draw attention.

She was holding a cute cat–shaped balloon, yet dressed head–to–toe in black, her face covered completely

Yeah, she probably looked like some kind of moody creep trying way too hard to look innocent with an out–of–place balloon.

That said, Ludwig wasn’t much better.

Though he’d insisted he didn’t need to hide his face, he was now wearing a mask and had pulled a baseball cap low over his head — not a single strand of hair showing.

“Wait a second,” Jean blurted out, eyes wide, “didn’t you say you didn’t need to cover your face?”

Ludwig shot her a lazy sideways glance. “I said not during the meeting.”

“Outside of that, I have to stay disguised.”

Fair enough.

Jean recalled how Ludwig had been hiding out in the Stellarford Academy art building all this time to conceal his identity.

Aside from their private meetups, he rarely ever showed himself in public.

With all these people around, even a casual outing like this could be a serious risk if someone recognized him.

“But don’t you think…” Jean lowered her voice, her tone self–mocking, “the two of us right now kinda look like… a pair of shady weirdos? I mean, look at that kid he looks like we scared the soul out of him.”

Ludwig let out a low chuckle, voice as cool and dry as always. “Good. I like scaring people.”

They kept walking side–by–side, speaking in hushed tones.
