John was stunned. This wasn''t like Penny; she usually wasn''t this proactive. "Okay," he said.


    Raymond got in the car alone, chuckling softly.


    Meanwhile, Selena had just changed and was about to leave when Austin called, asking if she was ready. Thinking he missed her message, she repeated the movie theater''s location-fourth floor of a nearby mall. Austin''s eyes lit up, and he drove over immediately.


    But Raymond got there first.


    Raymond had never been to a movie theater and didn''t know the process, so he just stood and waited for Selena.


    A tall guy in a suit at a movie theater entrance was unusual. His model-like posture made him stand out.


    He didn''t notice. After ten minutes, he saw Selenaing up the esctor.


    His eyes showed a hint of emotion until he noticed the man next to her.


    They were chatting, and Selena even handed her phone to the guy.


    Seeing themugh, Raymond''s usually calm face showed anger, and his eyes shed sharply.


    Selena felt someone staring at her and spotted Raymond by the ss balcony.


    People bustled around him, but he stood still.


    Why was Raymond at the movie theater?


    She thought of the woman he had an affair with and smirked.


    Raymond was quick-an affair and now a movie date.


    She felt disgusted, more annoyed with him than ever.


    The man with her was Austin, but he wore a hat and mask since it was his movie, and most people there were his fans. Raymond stood out so much that people took pictures of him, ignoring masked Austin.


    "Austin, wait here. I''ll get the tickets," Selena said.


    Austin nodded, excited for his first movie with Selena, and went to buy popcorn.


    Selena, in a light purple down jacket and white scarf, looked cool and elegant.


    Raymond watched her get the tickets. She didn''t greet him but walked to the man with popcorn.


    Furious, Raymond strode over, ring at Austin like he caught them in the act.


    "Who is he?" Raymond asked.


    Selena was taken aback. It looked like Raymond was catching them in the act.


    People started to notice. Worried Austin would be recognized, she stood in front of him to avoid a scene.


    "Mr. Montague, this isn''t your business. Your date should be here soon. Please don''t disturb us," Selena said. Raymond, feeling jealous, couldn''t respond.


    Didn''t she invite him to the movie?


    "Penny, get rid of him, and I won''t be mad," Raymond said.


    Selena couldn''t hold back. She grabbed Austin''s sleeve and headed to the ticket check.


    Raymond, unfamiliar with the ce, instinctively followed.


    The ticket checker stopped him. "Sir, please show your ticket."


    Raymond didn''t have one.


    Great at negotiations, he often stumbled over simple things.


    He showed the staff the picture Selena sent and said, "Give me a seat next to them."


    "Sorry, this show is sold out. You''ll have to wait for the next one."
