Chapter 2191


    Dan remarked casually, "I''ve noticed Gabriel and Sylvia seem pretty tight these days."


    Baron''s eyes shed dangerously, "Sylvia is mine."


    Downstairs, Sylvia and Gabriel were unfazed by the drama, finishing up their dinner in peace before


    settling the bill and heading out.


    Stepping outside, a brisk wind greeted them, but Sylvia felt invigorated by the chill. ncing at her


    wristwatch, she turned to Gabriel with a spontaneous idea, "How about we catch a midnight


    movie?"


    Gabriel raised an eyebrow, "Aren''t we a bit early for a midnight showing?"


    It was just ten o''clock at night.


    "It''s a good half-hour walk to the nearest theater, and by the time we get there, we''ll only have to


    wait a little," Sylvia reasoned. "What do you think?"


    "Sounds good to me!" Gabriel agreed with a nod.


    "Then let''s hit the road!"


    With a smile, Sylvia took the lead, striding across the street with Gabriel quickly catching up to walk


    beside her on her left.


    Despite the cold night, the streets were still bustling with life. Under the bright lights, there was


    already a hint of holiday cheer in the air.


    Sylvia tucked her hands into the pockets of her coat, her long curly hair casually swept up, her


    stunning beauty and ethereal presenceplemented by the tall and handsome Gabriel at her


    side. They drew many admiring nces as they walked.

    A sudden thought struck Sylvia, and she asked, "Have you ever been to a movie theater before?"


    Gabriel shook his head, "Nope."


    "Me neither!" Sylvia eximed.


    They shared a look and after a few seconds, Sylvia burst intoughter. "I''ll look up what we need to


    do so we don''t make fools of ourselves."


    "Sounds like a n," Gabriel chuckled.


    Sylvia pulled out her phone and started searching for the movie-going protocol.


    As she was engrossed in her phone, two yful youths came rushing by, one pushing the other


    who stumbled straight towards Sylvia''s back.


    Quick as a sh, Gabriel pulled Sylvia into his arms, avoiding the collision. The young man


    stumbled forward before regaining his bnce.


    Realizing his near miss, he turned to apologize, but upon seeing Sylvia''s face, he was struck


    speechless by her beauty.


    Sylvia smiled gently, "No worries. Just be careful where you''re going in a crowd."


    The young man, who seemed to be a college student, blushed and nodded before hurrying off with


    his friend.


    Gabriel released Sylvia, "Did you find out what we need to do?"


    Sylvia looked up with a sparkle in her eye and a hint of triumph, "We need to buy tickets first!"


    Half an hourter, they arrived at the cinema. Sylvia collected the tickets, and they joined the others


    waiting to enter the VIP lounge. The lounge was sparsely filled with couples and a group of girls


    who hade together, all there for thete-night feature.


    Noticing that the other girls were clutching snacks, Gabriel asked Sylvia, "Want something to munch


    on?"


    Sylvia nced at the concession stand but shook her head, "I''m good."


    Soon it was time to enter. As everyone stood up to have their tickets checked, one of the girls


    deliberately leaned towards Gabriel.


    Sylvia had noticed the trio eyeing Gabriel earlier, whispering among themselves. She moved closer


    to him and took his hand.


    Gabriel''s expression remained unreadable as he gently enveloped her slightly cold hand in his, a


    silent gesture of unity.
