"Here, hold this. I’m going to make a call."
Walker Grant walked ahead, a Coke in one hand and his phone in the other.
Chloe Reed lowered her gaze slightly, looking at the popcorn in her arms. ’They aren’t kids anymore. What does he think he’s doing? Does he think I can’t see what he’s up to?’
She collected her thoughts and followed him into the movie theater.
She wasn’t in the mood to eat, so naturally, she wasn’t in the mood for popcorn either. She focused all her attention on the movie.
She kept hearing a crunching sound and couldn’t help but look over.
She saw that he was the one eating the popcorn.
’Oh, well.’
’So he was the one who wanted it after all.’
She silently averted her gaze and went back to watching the movie.
The animated movie was heartwarming. The cute protagonist went on an adventure, overcame difficult challenges, and finally reconciled with their partner, leading to a deep, mutual understanding. She was completely engrossed.
By the time the movie was over, she felt a bit more relaxed, both mentally and physically.
Everyone else was leaving one after another, but she remained in her seat, not moving.
Walker Grant didn’t get up either. Half the popcorn in his lap was gone, and so was the Coke.
When almost everyone had left the theater, he looked at her and asked, "What are you thinking about?"
Chloe Reed lowered her gaze slightly and said softly, "What’s your plan now? Can you tell me?"
Hearing this, Walker Grant picked up a piece of popcorn and held it directly to her lips.
He didn’t speak, but his meaning was obvious: he wanted her to eat it.
The sweet scent of popcorn wafted to her nose. Chloe Reed stared at it for a long moment before reaching out and taking it.
Walker Grant said calmly, "As long as you stay by my side, nothing will happen to you."
