Chapter 146 Watching A Movie
As the sunlight hit Christina’s fingertips, sending a jolt of warmth through her, she woke up suddenly and sat up in bed.
It’s Saturday. Nathaniel and I have agreed to go shopping today.
She glanced around the room hastily, but Nathaniel was nowhere to be seen. Has he forgotten about our date as he’s too busy?
Feeling dejected, Christina had decided to change her clothes and head back to the office to work when she heard a gentle knock on the door.
Nathaniel appeared at the door, dressed in a sharp suit that was impeccably pressed. A black jewel adorned his crisp white shirt, making him look like a prince. His commanding presence quickly filled
the room.
“Are you not ready yet?” His lips curled as something glinted in his gaze.
Christina was momentarily stunned by Nathaniel’s dashing appearance. It took her a few moments to regain her composure, and then she asked hesitantly, Nathaniel, are you planning on wearing that on
our date?”
Nathaniel knitted his brows. “Anything wrong with my outfit?”
He usually wore suit jackets, and his wardrobe consisted mostly of them. As for accessories, he tended to favor expensive watches.
Christina a**essed Nathaniel’s outfit from head to toe. “You look tall and handsome in that outfit, but we’re going shopping, and it’s a casual day out. So, you don’t have to wear something that formal.”
Nathaniel’s presence was already imposing, and if they were to go shopping together, he would undoubtedly attract attention wearing a suit.
Most importantly, she wanted a casual day out instead of a formal date.
Seeing how eager she looked, he asked, “What do you think I should wear?”
As he had acquiesced to changing his clothes, Christina perked up and replied confidently, “I’ll pick your outfit!”
Half an hour later, they both reemerged in fresh clothes.
Christina’s hair was tied into two ponytails, giving her a youthful and lively appearance. She had on a blue vest and a white skirt that revealed her fair calves!
Nathaniel, on the other hand, was dressed in a way that was different from his usual style. He had on white slacks, a white shirt, and a dark blue checkered jacket that matched Christina’s vest.
His lazy gaze was icy and indifferent, making him look like a fairy who had descended on earth accidentally. People would stare at him from afar as he seemed untouchable.
The housekeepers nearly failed to recognize Nathaniel in this particular outfit. However, it was clear by the color choice that they were wearing matching outfits.

Mr. Hadley maintains his usual cold demeanor, but Mrs. Hadley’s innocent and charming appearance perfectly balances his intimidating presence. Together, they make a perfect couple.
Christina blinked and flashed a sweet smile. “Come on, let’s go. I’m going to eat all I can today!”
Nathaniel’s face was devoid of expression as he allowell Christina to drag him out of the house.
The black Maybach soon came to a stop in the commercial district. After parking the car by the street. Sebastian turned his head over his shoulder. It still felt strange to see his employer dressed in a casual
outfit.
Mr. Hadley still looks handsome, but I just can’t get used to it. He’s a ferocious beast, but Christina gave him an outfit that makes him look like a docile mastiff. It feels like Tn dreaming.
In a low voice, he asked, “Mr. Hadley, are you sure I don’t have to come along?”
Christina was exasperated to see how worried Sebastian looked. We’re just going shopping. Is he worried that I’ll kidnap Nathaniel?
A cheeky expression crossed her face as she suggested, “Sebastian, it must’ve been ages since you last went shopping, right? Come on, join us.”
Sebastian felt a chill run down his spine when he saw her expression. It was obvious she was up to no good. When Christina dragged Nathaniel out of the car, he followed behind them.
The sun was shining high in the sky, and the air seemed like it was filled with a sweet, almost sugary
scent.
Christina’s heart raced as she held Nathaniel’s hand tightly. It was their first official date, and she couldn’t help but feel giddy with excitement.
Compared to the other pedestrians, Nathaniel stood out with his confident stance, drawing attention. from pa**ersby. However, he seemed uninterested in the scenery around them as his gaze was fixed solely on Christina.
Christina was like a bird freed from its cage, flitting around excitedly. She bought every snack she saw, taking a single bite and leaving the rest to Nathaniel.
Behind them, Sebastian was stunned.
What does Christina think Mr. Hadley is? Her recycle bin?
It was only a short distance, but Sebastian had been forced to watch their PDA several times. He promptly regretted tagging along on their date. It seemed like a waste of his weekend.
“Mr. Hadley, I’ll wait for you in the car. Have fun!”
Christina stretched her hand out. “Give us the car keys, and you can leave.”
Sebastian gave the car keys to her readily and turned to leave.
They both strolled along the street like any other ordinary couple before heading to the top floor of the shopping mall to watch a movie.
Christina clicked on the cinema’s webpage and showed it to Nathaniel. “Which movie would you like to

watch?”
Nathaniel rarely watched movies, so he told her, “Any movie will do.”
Christina stared at her phone intently for a while before picking a newly released local thriller movie.
As they stood in line to purchase tickets, pa**ersby couldn’t help but stare at the couple. Nathaniel’s striking good looks and confident demeanor attracted attention from all around, leaving many gazing in admiration.
Nathaniel stood behind Christina, ignoring the gazes directed at him. His eyes turned to blocks of ice when he noticed someone was trying to take photos of him secretly.
Christina’s lips curled into a polite smile as she spoke up. “I understand my boyfriend is handsome, but please refrain from taking photos of him. It’s not appropriate,” she reminded the crowd, making it clear that she expected their compliance.
The person who tried to take photos of them awkwardly pocketed his phone.
No wonder Nathaniel hates visiting crowded places. If I face the same problem, I would hate leaving my house.
Soon, it was their turn to purchase tickets. Christina informed the ticket seller of the movie they wanted to watch, and the seller displayed the seating chart for them to select their seats.
“I’ll reserve the entire hall,” Nathaniel declared coolly as he pulled out his black card.
The cashier was stunned, for it was the first time she had ever met someone who was rich enough to reserve the entire cinema hall.
After a pause, she said hesitantly, “Mister, I’m really sorry, but we’ve sold some tickets, so you can’t reserve the entire hall.”
Christina held her head in exasperation. Even though he wasn’t wearing a suit, Nathaniel still acted and looked like a CEO.
She wanted to watch a movie just like any other ordinary couple.
“I’ll take the rest-” Christina covered Nathaniel’s lips before he could finish his sentence.
She told the cashier, “I’ll get these two seats in the middle.”
After getting their tickets, Christina dragged Nathaniel away from the ticket counter.
A few minutes before the hall was opened for seating, Christina bought soda and popcorn before heading into the hall.
The hall wasn’t crowded. Not long after they sat down, the lights dimmed.
Right before the movie began, two figures entered through the back door discreetly and settled down in the seats in front of Christina and Nathaniel.
