Chapter 73


    After ending the call, Marilyn looked at Isabe with an apologetic expression.


    Her boss had called at a really bad time.


    “Work is important. You should go back since your boss just called. I can watch the movie another


    time,” Isabe said understandingly.


    After Marilyn left, Isabe was not in the mood for a movie anymore.


    However, she could no longer return the two movie tickets that she had already purchased.


    After thinking for a moment, Isabe decided to listen to Marilyn''s advice and called Harold.


    “Are you free for a movie?”


    It was her first time inviting a man to the movies. As she was feeling rather shy, she spoke in a soft


    voice.


    In fact, she nned to hang up if the person on the other end of the line hesitated.


    “How can I reject my darling wife''s invitation to watch a movie? Tell me where you are. I''lle over


    right now,” Harold said with a serious expression as he crouched in a corner of the cinema.


    In order to make his lie seem more convincing, he deliberately tried to stall for time.


    He even bought a drink for Logan when he spotted thetter arriving at the movie theater.


    As for Marilyn, when she arrived at the parking lot, she realized that the keys to her car were still with


    Isabe.


    She quickly jogged back to the movie theater to find Isabe. However, just as she turned around the


    corner, she saw two familiar figures standing in front of her.

    One of them was the mysterious man who had saved them at the hotel. The other was Harold, who


    was Isabe''s husband on paper.


    She knew how Harold looked, as Isabe had sent a picture of him to her before.


    A confused thought immediately popped up in her mind. Why are they standing there together?


    However, as she was rushing to get back to her office, she merely stopped for a few seconds to nce


    at them and then turned to leave.


    Harold felt someone''s gaze upon him and turned around, but all he saw was the back of Marilyn''s


    figure.


    As it was almost time, Harold came out of his corner and walked over to Isabe.


    He walked past Marilyn, who had gotten her keys.


    “Why did you invite me to watch a movie, Darling?” Harold asked on purpose as he walked up to


    Isabe.


    “If I invited you to watch a movie, then just watch it. There''s no need for so many questions. Come on,


    the theater just opened.”


    Isabe was slightly embarrassed by Harold''s question. She deliberately rolled her eyes and put on an


    annoyed expression to conceal her slight nervousness.


    She then walked toward the movie theater with the two tickets in hand.


    Harold was not angry with her attitude at all but followed her into the theater.


    Soon, the movie started. It was a major motion picture in which many famous celebrities appeared.


    At that moment, Isabe noticed that most of the viewers consisted of couples who were passionately


    in love.


    It was fortunate that Harold was next to her. Otherwise, she might have been given weird looks.


    Halfway through the movie, there was a steamy scene between the male and female lead. The couple


    sitting next to Isabe seemed to have been influenced by it, for they started kissing passionately in the


    dark theater.


    Moreover, the girl started making sounds that would make anyone blush. The couple''s actions were


    even wilder than what was happening on the screen.


    Isabe felt incredibly awkward and could not help turning her head to re at them.


    As if they could feel her stare, the couple stopped what they were doing and nced back at Isabe


    with a look of mockery.


    Harold also noticed what was happening next to him. When he saw Isabe''s awkward expression, he


    reached out and took her soft hand in his.
