Chapter 774 Watching a Movie

Branden bought two movie tickets. He had checked online and knew that the most common way young people date nowadays was by watching movies and going shopping.

Knowing Catherine’s temperament and her dislike for shopping, he bought two tickets for the hottest movie.

Looking at the towering movie theater ahead, Catherine turned her head to the handsome man beside her. “Watch a movie?”

“Yeah.” Branden nodded. “Is that okay?

Seeing the bright smile on his face, Catherine didn’t object.

Whether it was the Duncans’ old mansion or the apartment, they both had top-notch home theaters. The equipment, costing up to seven figures, wasn’t inferior to those in the movie theaters.

Catherine just didn’t expect Branden to give up the private space and choose a public cinema.

Taking the elevator, they went directly to the fifth-floor cinema. Perhaps due to the holiday, the theater was crowded with people, mostly young.

When Branden led Catherine in, it attracted many eyes.

Branden, dressed relatively casually today, wore a casual white shirt on the upper body and particularly casual dark blue pants below. He exuded more of a recently graduated handsome senior vibe than a domineering president.

Catherine wore a long, light green dress, pure and beautiful. The two standing together looked incredibly matching.

The girls, who were initially attracted by Branden’s handsome face, quietly gave up the idea of approaching for his WhatsApp number when they saw Catherine standing beside him.

Catherine noticed the curious glances around her but was accustomed to such attention.

Branden, however, wasn’t as magnanimous. When he noticed several well-dressed, handsome college boys staring at Catherine, he subconsciously tightened the hand around her waist.

He closed the distance between them again as if asserting dominance, scanning those around with a cold light in his eyes.

Catherine noticed a long line ahead, wondering what people were buying.

Catching Catherine’s gaze, Branden led her to a nearby seat. “Wait for me here.

Before Catherine could understand what he was going to do, he had already stepped forward into the line.

This was the cinema’s snack counter. The cinema didn’t allow outside food, so everything had to be purchased there. Therefore, the line was quite long.

The moment Branden joined the line, he caught the attention of many. Some bold girls approached him when they saw him alone. “Hey, handsome, are you here to watch a movie alone?”

Branden glanced down. The question came from two young girls, even younger than Catherine.

Feeling somewhat helpless, he looked in Catherine’s direction and replied, ” With my girlfriend.”

The two girls followed his loving gaze, and when they saw Catherine, they silently gave up. “Indeed, a handsome man should be together with a beautiful woman,” they thought.

Although the line was long, the pace of the business was not slow. Branden quickly reached the sales window, and the female attendant, upon seeing his handsome face, instantly wore a much brighter smile. “Hey, handsome, what would you like to buy?”

Branden glanced carefully at the sales window and then looked around at the people nearby. Suddenly, he felt a bit undecided.

Being relatively enthusiastic toward good-looking boys, the female attendant proactively suggested, “If you’re alone, go for the single meal. If you’re with your girlfriend, our best- selling Valentine’s Day exclusive set is the best deal. It even comes with a little bear, very cost-effective.”

After hearing the suggestion, Branden made a decisive decision. “One Valentine’s Day exclusive set, thank you.”

His deep and magnetic voice was enchanting. Due to this, the female attendant gave him a slightly larger portion than others.

Carrying the Valentine’s Day exclusive set, Branden was about to return when he looked up and saw a child in front of Catherine.

He quickened his pace toward Catherine. When he approached, he lowered his voice and gently asked, ” What happened?”

Hearing this, Catherine lifted her head and smiled at him with a hint of helplessness.

The little girl in front turned around and, upon seeing Branden, froze. She had never seen such a handsome guy before, and he looked really good.

The little girl was very young, only seven or eight years old. She had a round face and looked extremely cute.

Seeing her staring, Branden softened his attitude a bit. “Little girl, what are you doing?”

The little girl didn’t dare to lie and explained the situation obediently. She said, “A sir bought a bunch of flowers from me to give to the pretty lady. He said if the pretty lady is willing to add him on WhatsApp, he’ll buy another bunch of flowers.”

Branden felt inexplicably upset. He had only been gone for a few minutes, and there were already men trying to get Catherine’s attention. He was pretty annoyed because of the high popularity of his fiancée.

Due to the little girl’s innocence, Catherine was reluctant to refuse her and accepted the flowers.

Branden, however, directly took them and threw them into the nearby trash can.

When the little girl saw the flowers being thrown away, her two faint eyebrows wrinkled together, and she looked a bit sad.

Just as she was about to cry, she suddenly heard Branden saying something beside her.

“Little girl, how much are all these flowers combined?” asked Branden.

“All of them?” The little girl looked up, a bit surprised.

Branden nodded, and the little girl seriously began to count. Because she was small, the bouquets in her hands weren’t many, and the total value wasn’t much.

Branden handed her a round number, bought all the flowers in her hands, and handed them to Catherine.

Then, he gently stroked the little girl’s head and, with rare gentleness, said, ” The flowers are sold out. You’re small; you should go home and rest early.”

“Thank you, sir!” The little girl’s face was filled with a sweet smile. When she left, she even turned back to praise Branden. She said, “Sir, I think you are much more handsome than the guy who bought flowers before. You and the pretty lady are more matching.”

Hearing the child’s sweet words, Branden showed a faint smile. When he turned around again, he found Catherine looking at him with a strange expression.

With a bouquet in her hands, she sat on the bench and looked up at him with eyes filled with a smile.

Bending down slightly, Branden used his finger to lift Catherine’s chin, and with their eyes locked, his eyes were full of affection. “Why are you looking at me like this?”

Catherine pointed to the bouquet in her arms and chuckled. “I didn’t expect you to do such things.”

Branden chuckled lightly, his gentle and melodious voice pleasant to the ear. “I can do more than just this.”

He took out the little bear from his pocket and handed it to Catherine. ” Like it? A Valentine’s Day exclusive gift.

The cute little bear had a heart symbol drawn on its belly. Although the craftsmanship was a bit rough, the shape was cute enough.

Thinking that a man his age would still do such things, Catherine found it amusing. “I like it! I like it all as long as it’s from you.”
