Chapter 113


    “Movie? That’s an interesting suggestion. I’ve never watched a movie before, actually. In fact, I have


    never been to the cinemas,” Tobias admitted.


    Skr’s eyes widened in surprise. “You’re telling me that you own several cinemas, but have never


    watched a movie yourself? Don’t try to fool me.”


    Tobias shrugged off her exmation.


    “I don’t have the time,pany, or interest to watch one.”


    Nopany? If you wanted to watch any movie, including those explicit ones, I bet a flock ofdies will


    make themselves avable to be with you in an instant.


    But going back to the main topic, Skr conceded after seeing how disinterested Tobias looked. “I’ll just


    catch it when it’s uploaded online. Let’s go.”


    Tobias observed her silently, noting how thedy appeared significantly more enthusiastic about


    watching a film than getting herself new handbags and clothes. He also noticed how her gaze parted


    from the movie poster with great reluctance.


    After a moment’s hesitation, he said, “Maybe we should watch that movie instead. Suits your age better.”


    Skr followed the direction of his pointed finger.


    He was gesturing to a kids’ movie.


    Skr sighed at his childishness. “Forget it. Let’s go. Horror movies don’t appeal to everyone, and I


    understand that.”


    Tobias pulled her back. “Are you sure you want to watch the horror movie? What if I get a heart attack


    during the film? You do know that I’m getting old, and that my heart can fail me anytime, right?”


    Old? You’re only thirty!


    But thedy made no actual reply. She merely stood there with tentative anticipation, hoping that the


    man would change his mind. Eventually, Tobias could not resist her pleading look and gave in.


    “I’ll go get the tickets. Wait over here.”


    Seated at the lounge area, Skr pulled the hem of his shirt, holding him back. “I’ve already said that


    this is my treat.” Then, she pulled out a brand new note ceremoniously and handed it over to him.


    The note was part of her hard-earned part-time wages.


    The man kept the note in his pocket, but paid using money from his own wallet instead. Instead, Skr


    watched the man at the ticket counter with amusement.

    Does he not know how to use mobile payment? He really needs to keep up with the times… Skr


    chuckled to herself.


    When Tobias returned, he caught sight of a couple seated near Skr.


    “Honey, I want popcorn,” said thedy.


    Her partner pinched her cheek affectionately. “What vor do you want?”


    “They only have the original vor here. Oh by the way, I’m scared of horror movies, so you need to hold


    me tightlyter on, alright?”


    The conversation prompted Tobias to take a look at Skr. Thedy seemed nonchnt, or even


    unaware of the sight happening before her. He sighed internally. Oh, the disparity. Why can’t she be


    more forting like that?


    The couple’s exchange also reminded Tobias of something else – they did not have any drinks or snacks


    for the movie. Instinctively, he went off and got thergest popcorn box and two cans of soft drink.


    Before heading into the movie hall, Tobias asked once again, “Are you sure about this?” In response,


    Skr merely taunted, “What? You’re already feeling the jitters?”


    Tobias chuckled. “Oh please. Fear is not in my dictionary.”


    It was not an exaggeration. The man had offended too many people, but still lived fine in the end. As a


    result, he been sé about things like vengeful ghosts and monsters. I’d be dead by now if they can


    actually harm me.


    When they entered the screening hall, Tobias immediately realized his mistake – he had booked the front


    row seats. It was a greatly wasted opportunity to do certain things amidst the pitch ck environment.
