Chapter 422
Hera was currently taking selfies with Samantha by the lakeside while Bernard and Shaun were sitting by the grassy fields, chatting. The atmosphere was warm and relaxed.
Hera looked into the distance and saw Nicholas dragging Wayne aside. She couldn’t help but wonder what they were talking about.
If she remembered correctly, Wayne did not like Nicholas. But for some reason, he seemed particularly attentive toward Nicholas today.
“I think I know what’s happening. They must have grown closer throughout these two days together and formed some sort of brotherhood between them,” Samantha said.
Hera was skeptical. Why did she feel that Wayne was either being bought over or being threatened now?
At that moment, Nicholas marched over angrily. “Hera, help me take a few photos,” he said while handing Hera the camera.
Samantha watched them and quickly moved away.
Nicholas immediately took a liking to Samantha for giving them some space.
Then, he proceeded to do all kinds of poses, wanting to show off his masculinity to Hera. Seeing that Bernard and Wayne were not coming forward to stop him, he continued to pose gleefully.
Although he wasn’t as tall as Bernard, he had four-pack abs.
The sound of the camera’s shutter echoed through the air.
Nicholas posed for about half an hour before happily running back to Hera. He flipped his hair coquettishly. “What do you think? Aren’t I handsome?”
“Why don’t you take a look at the photos yourself?” She handed the camera back to him.
He took the camera happily but was immediately dumbfounded by the contents.
“Who on earth are these people?”
Hera replied, “They’re you.”
She had always been a bad photographer, but her skills had improved greatly after Bernard offered to teach her last year.
Bernard had never once called her a bad photographer!
She said unhappily, “I just took them based on how you look.”
“I’m six feet tall, yet I look like I’m five feet two in your photos! How can you think that I look like that?” Nicholas was furious.
Hera was speechless. She took a look at Nicholas before looking at the photos on the screen again.
Oh, it did seem…
Bernard just so happened to be walking toward them. Hera handed him the camera so that he could also have a look at the photos she took.
Bernard looked at the photos taken and said, “You took quite good shots. He’s just
nitpicking. There’s no need for you to bother with such an ungrateful person. Come and help me take a few photos instead.”
With that said, he took Hera’s hand and left with her.
Nicholas was flabbergasted. Was he nitpicking? Was he acting ungrateful? Motherfucker, was Bernard blind or was he the blind one here?
But he finally understood why Samantha had given them space and ran away. It was also no wonder that no one had stopped him even while he was posing.
It was because Hera was a terrible photographer!
Well then, he would wait and see how well a terrible photographer like Hera would take photos of Bernard.
Bernard did not rush or immediately ask Hera to start taking photos of him. Instead, he patiently taught Hera how to frame a shot before handing her the camera.
Hera nodded after listening to Bernard’s explanation. Her mind understood what he was saying, but her hands just couldn’t do it.
Even so, the results were somewhat normal.
Nicholas went over to take a look and immediately exclaimed, “Holy shit! I just realized your bad photography skills vary depending on the person!”
“Her photography skills aren’t the problem here. It’s the model,” Bernard said firmly.
Hera looked at the two sets of photos and nodded in agreement. “You’re right! I knew my photography skills had improved significantly!”
Nicholas was left at a loss for words.
They set up a grill by the lakeside for dinner while Wayne went to a supermarket nearby to buy some tools and groceries.
Having learned from previous experience, Bernard didn’t dare to let Hera on the grill once again. He decided to take things into his own hands.
Seeing Bernard preparing to cook by the grill, Nicholas immediately followed and stood beside him. He grilled everything that Bernard grilled. Wayne, who had returned, stood by the side to help.
