Chapter 1136

Michelle paused for a moment. She knew she’d only been affectionate with Nathan because she wanted to get pregnant. But the longer they spent together, the more she noticed Nathan’s qualities.
He really was a wonderful man. With his status and his looks, he was the best she could have hoped for in an arranged marriage.
Nathan opened the passenger door for her like a gentleman. “Get in.”
Michelle got in the car. Nathan walked around to the driver’s seat and hit the gas. The vehicle then sped off.
Half an hour later, they arrived at the movie theater. It was a weekday, so there weren’t many people there to see a movie.
Nathan was holding the tickets when he suddenly spotted the popcorn stand. “Do you want popcorn?”
Michelle had only been to a movie once, when she was very young. She went with both her parents.
Sabrina held her hand back then. When Michelle saw the popcorn stand, she said to Kyle, “Daddy, I want popcorn.”
Kyle said, “I’ll go get some then!”
He really did leave to buy it, but then his phone rang. He just took off after taking a call, leaving her and Sabrina in the theater.
Later, she learned that Madelyn was born on that very day.
As she stared at the popcorn stand now, Michelle’s thoughts were pulled back to the past-back to the deepest wound in her heart.
Nathan let go of her hand and went to buy popcorn. That was when two pretty women saw Nathan and squealed, “Look, a hottie!”
“The hottie’s buying popcorn for his girlfriend. Don’t even get any weird ideas!”
Soon, Nathan came back, carrying a large bucket of popcorn. “Here.”
Michelle took it. “Thank you.”
She picked up a piece of popcorn to eat. As she chewed, that sweet, buttery flavor spread through her tongue. The popcorn was really sweet.
Nathan looked at her. “Is it good?”
Michelle nodded. “It’s good.”
She held up a piece of popcorn to Nathan’s lips. “Try some.”
Nathan opened his mouth and ate it. Michelle then asked, “Is it good?”
He nodded. “Yeah.”
Michelle smiled. She knew perfectly well that Nathan didn’t like sweets at all.
Nathan said, “The movie’s about to start. Let’s go in.”
“Okay.”
They went into the screening room. It was just the two of them inside, as Kelvin had booked a private couple’s suite.
After they sat down, Michelle asked, “What are we watching today?”
Nathan said, “I asked Kelvin to book a romance film.”
The movie started. The male and
female leads fell in love at first sight, but the woman’s mother
The
disapproved of the marriage. The two of them could only part with tears.
That part was quite moving, so even Michelle teared up.
Nathan handed her a tissue.
“Thank you,” Michelle said.
Nathan found it amusing. “What’s there to cry about?”
Michelle said, “Don’t you think it’s really touching?”
Nathan shook his head. “Not at all. Between them, they don’t even have a thousand dollars, Instead of wasting time on romance, they should focus on making money first.”
Michelle was speechless. What kind of logic was that? But then again, Nathan was
a business mogul.
Soon, Michelle noticed something off. The movie’s plot had begun to shift.
The leads couldn’t bear to part, so
they clung to each other. They started undressing and then went wild on each other.
