Chapter 85
Thomas’ phone rang at around 3.00PM. He held it up and saw that it was a call from Rose. “It’s been awhile, Thomas!”
“It sure is,” Thomas replied with a smile.
“Are you free tonight? My father would like to meet you.” Rose got straight to the point. She was havinga cup of tea with her father at home right at this moment. She had told her father all about Thomas, andher father was beyond elated to hear about him, and he insisted on getting to know Thomas.
Thus, her old man urged her to ask Thomas out.
“Tonight?” Thomas hesitated. He had intended to head out to murder Pontius from Minacia Oito thatnight. The initial plan had been to kill Pontius last night, but the people from the Yam Family haddisrupted his plans. The act would have to be delayed for two whole days if Thomas didn’t followthrough with it that night.
“You can come over to my house for a meal and a chat. Don’t worry; we won’t take up too much time.Two hours would be enough.” Rose tried to reassure Thomas after hearing the hesitation in his voice.It’s just two hours—I’m not asking him to spend the whole night here. I’m sure he’ll be okay with thissuggestion, she figured.
He thought about it for a while more and wouldn’t mind heading over as long as his plans for revengeweren’t disrupted. “Alright. Send me your address. I should be there around 8.00PM,” he mentioned.
“Great! See you then!” Rose felt as if a huge weight had been lifted off her chest then. She would’vebeen utterly embarrassed if he had ended up rejecting her. Deep down, she believed that Thomas wasno regular man, and she was sure he would become an impressive leader in society someday.
She wanted to strengthen her connection with him before he received more recognition. Rose trustedher gut feeling, as she had always been right! I’m waiting for you, Thomas. My father is really curiousabout you, so I hope you put up a good show for him. Don’t disappoint me!
Right after Thomas ended the call, Olivia stormed into the room. “Grab the car, Thomas. Molly, I needyou to pick out the documents relating to our partnership with Mr. Belvard. We will meet up with him ina bit,” she announced.
“Got it, Miss Pearson!” Molly replied in a clear and loud tone. She hastened her actions as she couldtell that Olivia was in a rush. About five minutes later, the car picked up speed as Thomas headed tothe location where Olivia had instructed him to go.
It was then Olivia realized how Thomas was driving a Lamborghini instead of his usual BMW Z4. Wait,that’s not right. How did he get a new car? I only gave him the keys to a BMW Z4!
“Did you change the car, Thomas?” she asked.
“Yeah!” He nodded and explained, “This is my friend’s car. I’m driving it for a few days.”
She thought about his words for a while. I guess it makes sense. Even Sean and William treat Thomasas their good friend, and people of their financial status could easily get a Lamborghini in Irieson. Oliviano longer thought or asked about this matter after that.
Once they arrived at the destination, Olivia and Molly headed up into the building while Thomas waitedin the parking lot.
About 10 minutes later, Molly walked over to the car and knocked on the window. Thomas opened thecar door and asked, “What are you doing here? Where’s Olivia?”
“Miss Pearson is still negotiating with Mr. Belvard about the partnership, and she told me to head offfirst. She said that we could find a spot to wait for her and that she would call us once she was donewith her business,” Molly said.
Thomas nodded and gestured for her to get into the car, but she remained in her spot with a ratherbashful look on her face.
“Would you be free now, Thomas? Why don’t we watch a movie? Miss Pearson’s discussion with Mr.Belvard is going to take a while, and I don’t think they’d be done in less than two hours. I know of acinema nearby that has a pretty nice environment…” This was a rare opportunity for Molly to spendtime with Thomas, so she wanted to take advantage of it. “You mentioned that you were busypreviously, but we’re at work now, so you shouldn’t be occupied by anything else, right?” she asked.
Thomas froze for a moment before he recalled something. I rejected Molly the first time she asked meto watch a movie, and I even promised her I would buy her movie tickets the next time. Well, I’vealready rejected her once—I can’t reject her twice, can I? He then nodded. “Sure. Let’s watch a movie.”
“Okay!” Molly’s cheeks turned pink, as she hadn’t expected him to agree to the plan so promptly. Itseems like Chloe was right—Thomas does have feelings for me! Oh, Molly, why are you conjuring allthese inappropriate thoughts in your head? What’s going on?! She ended up selecting a new comedymovie. They both had popcorn in their laps as the movie started.
Thomas barely paid any attention to the show. What’s this nonsense? This is a trashy film. It’s someaningless. He wasn’t a humorless person, but none of the scenes made him feel like laughing at all.After the movie was over, he stood up and stretched his limbs. He felt rather sore after sitting down fortoo long.
Both Thomas and Molly walked beside each other as they headed toward the cinema’s exit.
“Thomas? Stay right there!” someone shouted.
“Huh?” Thomas froze for a moment. Who’s calling for me? The voice sounds rather angry. He turnedaround to see the date he had met just a few hours ago. It was Fanny, Lilac’s sister. Beside her was ayoung man dressed in a white suit, and he seemed to be her date for the movie. Molly was shocked aswell. She had seen Fanny earlier; she knew Fanny was Thomas’ blind date and that things had turnedsour between them. However, Molly hadn’t expected to bump into Fanny so abruptly.
“What is it, Fanny?” The man beside Fanny knitted his brows as he reached his arm over to wraparound her slim waist.
“That’s the b*stard that scolded me in the restaurant this afternoon!” She pointed her finger in Thomas’direction as she was still fuming at the memory of what happened earlier that afternoon. Was thereanything wrong with my questions? How could one come out on a date if he doesn’t have money, ahouse, or a car? What kind of idiot would commit their life to a man like that? How dare you flip thingsaround to ask if I’m a virgin instead? You even asked about my body count. Is that any of your f*ckingbusiness? Look at that sister of yours! You guys are all poor, useless brats. You should be honored bythe fact that I even showed up for the date. How dare you complain?! What a joke!
“Oh, is that the b*stard you were talking about?” The man let out an icy scoff. He was trying to courtFanny, but Fanny had been complaining about this other guy since earlier. The man had promised herhe would get someone to deal with the said guy, but he didn’t expect to bump into Thomas so soon.Well, I guess you’re out of luck, young man. You dug your own grave, the man thought.
Then, the man pointed toward the staff members standing by the exit of the screening room. “I wantyou guys to clear this place out. Don’t allow anyone to come in!” the man ordered.novelbin
“Got it, sir!” The staff members uttered a few words into their walkie-talkies, and the whole space wascleared off after that. Thomas, Molly, Fanny, and the man were the only ones left. “I want you to avenge
me. Beat him up!” Fanny cried.
There was a cold glint in her eyes and a hint of malice in her voice. Since Lilac wasn’t around, Fannydidn’t have to worry about her sister’s reputation.
