Nicole did not mind. It was just to pass the time anyway.
Clayton led her into the hall. The entrance was dark, and Nicole could not really see, so she followed after him and asked, "Are the seats you bought in the front o r back?"
Clayton did not answer.
When he got in front of the screen and there was enough light, he took out a thick stack of tickets from his pocket.
Nicole was shocked for a moment.
Clayton said calmly, "Feel free to pick any..."
He bought out the entire hall.
Looking at Nicole's shocked expression, Clayton's eyes turned gentle as he explained, "I was afraid that it'll cause a misunderstanding if others saw us watching a movie together, so I figured I might as well not let anyone see us. I'll wait until you're willing to be seen b y others."
No matter how heartless, careless, or unreasonable Nicole was, Clayton still accommodated her worries.
He had already thought about all the words that she could not speak easily.
Nicole lowered her eyes and felt particularly guilty for speculating that Clayton had dark thoughts earlier.' Clayton is such a good person. How would he deliberately use her? I'm the one with dark thoughts!’
Nicole's nose subconsciously stung as she raised her eyes to look at him.
"Such a considerate Mr. Sloan really never had a girlfriend before?"
Clayton was stunned before he laughed and said, "You don't believe me? My attentiveness is because I have a n additional naughty child that others usually don't.”
Nicole smiled. "It seems like Michael is a good excuse.”
Clayton said, "I want to cry foul, but I’m a little too happy that you care so much about my past.”
There was warmth in his smile, and his delicate face was gentle and calm.
Nicole was a little dumbstruck from being looked at b y Clayton like this. She was taken aback again.
She immediately turned around and went to the back seat. That position and angle was the best place to watch the film. Clayton followed closely behind.
The movie started.
At the title screen, two words "Mourning Curse” dripping with a layer of blood appeared on the screen.
