Chasing His Scentless Mate (Caroline) novel Chapter 323

Chapter 323: Chapter 323 Movie Night Intervention

Antonio’s POV

While waiting for Louise to deliver the note, I immediately called Mia. When I asked her to join me for a movie, she agreed without hesitation. I suggested she bring her sister along too. Despite being twenty-one and in dental school, Mia’s sister never acted superior, she was actually pretty cool. I needed her help tonight specifically. Mia promised to ask her.

By pure luck, I caught a glimpse of Eleanor’s phone when she was leaving the office. A text revealed which theater and movie she’d be seeing with that Theo guy tonight. Perfect.

Just as I ended the call, Louise climbed into Uncle Joseph’s car with the note.

"Uncle Draven and the others saw me! Don’t let them tell my parents, hurry! Uncle Ryan has the same big mouth as me!" Louise rattled off in one breath.

"You’re getting bolder by the day," I complained.

"Mom says telling the truth shouldn’t be punished!" Louise shot back. This kid was stubborn as hell.

"It’s okay, sweetheart. I’ve already texted them to keep quiet," Uncle Joseph reassured her.

"What did the note say?" I asked.

"’Betrayal is unforgivable; if it could be forgiven, wouldn’t the devil be an angel?’" Uncle Joseph’s voice cracked slightly. "Damn, Ava didn’t hold back this time."

"At least she responded, right?" I tried to comfort him.

"Yeah..." he sighed, looking like someone had kicked.

After rushing home for a quick shower, I arrived at Mia’s right on schedule.

"Hey, beautiful!" I kissed my girlfriend’s hand before greeting her mother and sister in the living room.

"Will you be out late?" Mia’s mom asked.

"Don’t worry. Just a movie, some food, then I’ll bring the kids home," I answered confidently. "You’re not going to turn down my invitation, are you, Avery?" I turned to Mia’s sister.

"You’re cool, Antonio, but I’m not interested today," she replied.

"Come on, Avery. It’s that movie you’ve been dying to see!" I insisted.

"What movie? I don’t want to see anything," Avery needed some motivation.

I pulled out my phone, typed "Theo" on the screen, making sure her mom couldn’t see it, and showed it to her.

"See this guy!" Before she could ask questions, I jumped in. "Go change. We don’t want to be late, and I already bought the tickets."

Avery rushed to tell her mom she’d changed her mind. Thankfully, her mom let me drive, saving us time. The moment we got in the car, Avery bombarded me with questions.

"How do you know Theo?"

"I don’t, but he’s going to the movie with someone."

"Who?" she pressed.

"My uncle’s girlfriend." 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

"Ava’s cheating?" Mia gasped.

"No, my uncle betrayed her. They’re kind of broken up. She met Theo recently, he’s a friend of a friend’s brother. They went out yesterday and are meeting again today."

"Are they actually dating?" Avery asked.

"From what I know, nothing’s happened yet, and we’re making sure nothing will."

"I can get behind this plan," Avery said.

"Just so you know, she’s smoking hot," I warned.

"Yeah, Avery, Ava is stunning and super nice!" Mia added, making Avery deflate.
