Chapter 54
When we arrived at the cinema, Douglas looked at the couple's seat and awkwardly scratched his head. "Sorry, I didn't know..."Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
Our seats were in the middle, and at that moment. all the other seats around us were filled with couples.
Regardless, I put on a calm demeanor and said, "The movie's about to start. Let's sit down.”
During the movie, Douglas kept close to the edge of his seat, afraid to cross the boundary.
I noticed this and felt a wave of bitterness washing over me
I'd done such a stupid thing before toa, but the difference was that Douglas did it unintentionally, while I did it deliberately years ago.
I'd purposefully chosen a horror movie, and when the scariest part came, I intentionally snuggled into Bruce's arms, hoping that the statuesque man would fall for me.
But even until the end of the movie, Bruce didn't make a single move and maintained his dignified and cold demeanor. However, in retrospect, Bruce was only indifferent toward me because I was the wrong person
Just as I was lost in thought. I suddenly felt some warmth on my fingertips. Then, I looked down and realized that I had accidentally touched Douglas's hand while reaching for my hot drink.
Douglas paused, and surprise flashed in his eyes as he looked at me.
But just as I was about to explain myself to him, my phone vibrated, and I shifted my attention to it. Then, I took the opportunity to get up and left the theater.
However, upon seeing the caller ID, I felt a little dumbfounded
It was a call from Bruce. He probably had some instructions again.
I pinched my brows before politely answering the call, "How may I help you at this late hour, Mr. Harold?” Truth be told, it was only 9 pm. It could still be considered quite early.
Bruce cleared his throat before mockingly saying, "I remember you were always rushing to catch the last train, Ms. Fisher. What's with the change of routine tonight?’
I sighed and got straight to the point. "What can I do for you, Mr. Harold?"
"It's not a big deal. I just want you to help me set up a plugin on Facebook.” Bruce hummed So, it was about work.
I composed myself and asked, "What type of plugin?”
"Something like a couple's chat—a place where two people can upload their photos and videos.”
Bruce sounded indifferent as he spoke, as Sif he were discussing the weather. But on my end, I suddenly found myself at a loss for words.
A couple's chat.
That was once one of the hundred things I'd promised him.
At the time felt that a blog was tea normal, and many functions required payment. So, I bit the bullet and Said that I wanted to create a unique couple's chat just for us.
And now, he was going to start one with Cindy.
Suddenly, my heart was ripped to shreds.
For a moment, I didn't know whether to praise Bruce for being such a good boyfriend or to rudely curse him However, after thinking it through, I brushed it off as a mere coincidence.
Besides, the past was in the past. How could a busy man like Bruce still remember my promise back then anyway? So, I asked, "What style are you looking for, Mr. Harold?"
Bruce answered without any hesitation, "Something dreamy and romantic."
The same lines as Cindy’s—it was clear he was doing it for her.
"Aren't you going to ask what I'll be using it for, Ms. Fisher?" Bruce pressed on.
I chuckled. "Do I even need to ask? I'm sure it’s obvious enough."
"You're as smart as ever, Ms. Fisher," Bruce murmured indifferently.
"You flatter me,” I replied flatly.
After receiving the task, I was about. to hang ap when I heard Bruce say, "By the way, keep this a secret for now-You can discuss the details with me directly.” Content.belongs ike) -
Wow, not only did Bruce want to steal my idea, but he also wanted to surprise Cindy.
