Chapter 277


    “Sure,” Jonathan replied. Taking an extra child to the premiere wasn’t a big deal for him. “But are


    you sure he’ll understand the movie?”


    Rosalie pondered for a moment. The movie they were attending was advertised as suitable for all


    ages, even though Aiden was a bit younger and still unfamiliar with many aspects of auditory


    language.


    However, watching a movie would be a novel experience for him, and she could provide quiet hints


    or use signnguage to help him understand during the screening.


    Thinking about it, Rosalie found the situation even more intriguing. She was looking forward to


    seeing Aiden’s reaction when he watched the movie.


    So, Rosalie used signnguage to ask him if he had ever watched a movie before.


    Aiden shook his head, indicating that he hadn’t.


    “Would you like to go watch a movie with meter?” Rosalie asked, using both words and sign


    language to make sure he


    understood.


    Aiden nodded excitedly, his face lit up with anticipation.


    While his understanding of movies might be limited to their literal meaning, his expression clearly


    showed excitement.


    Seeing Aiden’s eager expression, Rosalie couldn’t help feeling a bit regretful. She wished they were


    watching an animated movie together today.


    However, she thought maybe next time, if Aiden showed interest in the format, she could take him


    to see an animated film.


    When they arrived at the premiere venue, they didn’t park at the main entrance. After all, there were


    quite a few reporters gathered there, and Jonathan knew that Rosalie didn’t like attracting media


    attention.


    Besides, he himself had never been fond of reporters.


    Instead, they parked at a side entrance where security guards were stationed. As soon as they saw


    Jonathan’s car approaching, they promptly opened the door for them.


    Jonathan, Rosalie, and Aiden got out of the car and entered the venue.


    Inside, there were no reporters, just celebratory wreaths and the people attending the premiere.


    Rosalie recognized many of the attendees. There were famous movie stars frequently seen on


    screens, renowned directors from the domestic film industry, and even some figures usually


    associated with political news.


    Rosalie was a bit bewildered. While Dominic’s fame was decent at the moment, it didn’t seem to


    warrant such attention.


    However, as she thought about it further, she realized that the director of this film was one of the top


    three directors in the industry, having also received numerous international des.


    This time, it was clear that many of the prominent figures attending the premie


    director.


    were doing so as a favor to this esteemed


    Back then, Rosalie had attracted quite a bit of attention at the previous banquet, and whispers


    circted about not offending Jonathan’s new girlfriend within certain upper-ss coterie.


    However, this hadn’t bemon knowledge yet.


    Therefore, Rosalie walking alongside Jonathan with a child had attracted quite a few curious


    nces.


    Especially those who knew Jonathan personally couldn’t believe their eyes.


    They wondered, ‘What on earth is happening? Why is Mr. Youngblood, who is usually so enigmatic


    and intimidating to everyone in Strico, attending such an event with a child?


    And who’s the woman by his side?’


    This situation easily sparked some gossipy spections, and Rosalie could feel the ambiguous


    gazes directed at her and the curious looks at Aiden. She realized what some people might be


    thinking.


    “Um… it seems like these people have some misunderstandings,” Rosalie whispered to Jonathan.


    Jonathan smiled faintly. “Misunderstandings? Misunderstandings about what?” His voice held a hint


    of amusement.


    “Could he not see people’s misunderstanding?” Rosalie blinked and stared at Jonathan, but at this


    moment, his beautiful eyes were clear, so clear that they seemed almost innocent.


    Rosalie clenched her teeth, her face slightly flushed. “They’re misunderstanding that Aiden is our


    child!”


    “Let them misunderstand then,” Jonathan replied with nonchnce.


    “Huh?” Rosalie was taken aback. Let them misunderstand like this? Was that appropriate? “But…”


    “There’s nothing to worry about,” he said. “In the end, we will have children, and whether they


    misunderstand us now orter, does it really make a difference?”


    Rosalie felt an inexplicable sense of speechlessness toward his words.


    “Alright, let’s go,” Jonathan said, taking Aiden’s other little hand and moving forward.


    This action only reinforced the beliefs of those who had been specting. A man and a woman


    holding hands with a child-it certainly looked like a family of three, didn’t it?


    However, Jonathan hadn’t publicly announced his marriage or the existence of a 3- or 4-year-old


    child!


    Could it be a secret marriage? Or perhaps just a casual rtionship? And was the child an


    illegitimate one? Suddenly, sympathy-filled nces were cast toward Rosalie from some attendees.


    However, there was more envy among the onlookers. After all, having a child meant having a future


    in their eyes. Even if she couldn’t be thedy of the house in the future, they could at least live


    afortable life in the Youngblood family!


    The director of this movie did recognize Jonathan, although when his secretary came to request


    invitations for the premiere, it had surprised him.


    However, now that he actually saw Jonathan here, along with a woman and a child, even the


    experienced director couldn’t help but be taken aback.


    “Mr. Youngblood, wee.” The director warmly greeted him. “And these two are?” He nced af


    Rosalie and Aiden.


    “This is my girlfriend, Rosalie; and the other is Aiden.” Jonathan introduced Aiden, only mentioning


    thetter’s name but not revealing his identity.


    However, this left some onlookers even more convinced that Aiden was Jonathan’s illegitimate


    child.


    After all, they couldn’t openly introduce an illegitimate child, could they?


    “Mr. Mercer, you’ve chosen the cast very well this time,” Jonathan said. “My girlfriend is quite a fan


    of Dominic Caesar. After the premiere, could you arrange for her to meet him? She’d like to take a


    photo and get an autograph.”

    “Huh?” Noah Mercer was stunned.


    A fan of Dominic? Wanting a photo and autograph? This sounded a lot like a starstruck fan. Why did


    he feel like Jonathan was attending the premiere today just to help his girlfriend who was Dominic’s


    fan?
