At the same time, he quickly pulled Joyce, whose body was already half out the door. While he was shocked, the bitterness at the bottom of his heart became more intense.
The feeling of powerlessness in his heart pulsed through every vein and gradually spread to his whole body. All he felt was weakness and helplessness.
Even his hand that was holding onto her trembled slightly.
Joyce was willing to accept Nathaniel’s date and was willing to add random guys on social media, but when it came to him, she would rather jump out of the car and risk her life than stay with him.
Tristan could no longer keep his gentle facade. Painful remorse flashed across his eyes that were darker than the night. “Joyce…” His voice was low, raspy, and extremely humble.
Joyce did not get to jump out of the car.
She just sat there and cast a sidelong glance at Tristan. Her gaze was as cold as the cold wind in the night.
‘Remarry him?! Bloody impossible!’ Joyce did not like Tristan’s proposal, not even as a joke.
Tristan’s eyes were deep and dark, blending into the night.
“Why did you lie to me that it wasn’t you? The woman in the photo is clearly you…” ») ‘Why won’t you admit it? Why won’t you ‘ admit that you saved me?’ Tristan thought.
The moment Tristan confirmed that it was Joyce, he felt indescribably relaxed and vaguely happy. Joyce laughed. “So what if it’s me? What can you do with this knowledge?” [inv. She had him at a loss.
‘Yeah, what could I do…?’ At that moment, Tristan’s expression was clearly stagnant. The corners of his lips were tightly pressed into a straight line.
Tristan, who had always been calm and steady, seemed to be on the verge of collapsing. a ( Joyce hooked her lips into a faint smile.
Her red lips parted slightly as she said, ‘ Mr. Beckett, can’t you see that I’m lying to you because I don’t want to have anything to do with you anymore? That’s all in the past, and I’m someone who will never look back.
Not to mention remarriage, I’ve never reconciled with friends that I’ve cut off contact with, Mr. Beckett, just move on. We don’t have anything to do with each other anymore, so we can marry whoever we like.
No matter who you’re with in the future, I’ll certainly prepare a generous gift to congratulate you.”
She was obviously smiling, but the words that came out of her mouth were like sharp nails that densely pricked Tristan’s heart.
It hurt so much that he could not speak. ‘Was it all in the past? I knew nothing about these, yet she just drew the line at these things and classified them as a clear-cut past?’ Joyce said her piece and wanted to get out of the car without looking at him.
Tristan’s voice was clear and cold, but with a hint of affection as he said behind her. “Joyce, I saved your life. Do you not want to admit this?” Joyce froze in an instant.
Her hand was propped on the door as she turned back to look at him. Tristan’s faint smile seemed to carry a trace of bitterness.
“Fine, I won’t mention remarriage again, but there’s no need for you to avoid me like the plague, right? Didn’t you say that everything’s in the past? So can’t we just be regular friends?” Joyce glanced at him with knitted eyebrows.
Her subtle change in expression was instantly captured by Tristan. Tristan maintained a gentle and frank smile and hid the emotions deep in his eyes.
The corners of Joyce’s lips twitched.
If Tristan had not saved her life, she really would have just opened the door and left. ‘What game is this Tristan Beckett trying to play…?’ Joyce thought.
Tristan withdrew his gaze. His long, sculpted fingers tapped the steering wheel gently.
“Since I’ve saved your life, why don’t we watch a movie that I’ve invested in that just premiered today? As regular friends …” )) He said the last two words through clenched teeth.
Joyce scrutinized Tristan’s expression. As long as he did not mention dumb things like feelings or remarriage, she was willing to get along peacefully with him. ») “Fine.”
She sat back in the car again. Her eyes looked straight ahead and pretended to be generous and forgiving.
When they arrived at the cinema, Joyce, who was wearing a formal dress, immediately captured a lot of attention, She was so stunning and eye-catching like she was a movie star attending a premiere.
Soon, a suit jacket was draped over her body, blocking the burning gaze of the crowd.
“Don’t take it off unless you want to be in tomorrow’s tabloid headlines again.” Joyce looked too outstanding and would be recognized sooner or later, so perhaps this jacket would make her more low-key.
Joyce’s outstretched hand retracted upon hearing this. She raised an eyebrow. “Then let’s go buy a ticket. Mr. Beckett, which movie did you invest in?” Joyce swept a glance.
‘None of today’s movies are new. This lying son of a b*tch! I Tristan swept a glance and said in a light tone, “I invested in all of these…” ) Joyce was speechless.
Tristan walked up to the ticket counter. His outstanding handsome features soon became the focal point.
The attendant blushed and recommended him some romantic comedies.
He did not care much for it and chose the movie with the closest showtime.
When he glanced to the side, he saw the couple next to him holding a large bucket of popcorn and a Coke and frowned slightly.
Joyce was bored sitting on the side with her chin propped up on her hand as she scrolled through her phone.
She was looking at the group chat messages, where Yvette and Julie were discussing where they should go for a ski trip.
Joyce wanted to give some inputs, but if they found out that she was out at the movies with Tristan Beckett, their eyes would probably pop out of their sockets.
Next to her, a college-looking guy came over with a shy face. “Excuse me, Miss. May I ask if you’re from U of A? Which department are you in?” Joyce was stunned.
‘Right… U of A is just nearby… She instantly felt a little giddy with joy for being mistaken as a college student. “I…” Joyce was just about to explain when the college student handed over his phone.
“Can I have your contact? We have a play a that’s in need of a female lead at the a moment…” Joyce smiled at him with squinted eyes. Her eyes were glimmering like the stars.
The college student was so enchanted by Joyce’s smile that he did not notice the cold aura from another person behind her.
The man placed one hand on the back of Joyce’s chair like he was declaring sovereignty. His eyes were gloomy as he stared at the boy.
A familiar and cold voice with a compelling moroseness came from behind Joyce. “What are you guys talking about?” He had such an awe-inspiring and reserved temperament.
The Patek Philippe on his wrist was enough to end someone else’s lifelong struggles. Without having to speak, anyone could tell that this man was no ordinary person.
The college student’s eyes dimmed as he withdrew his phone in defeat. He hurriedly apologized and fled the scene.
Joyce looked at the college student with regret. Her smile also faded. Tristan noticed her change in expression. His gaze darkened. His heartfelt like it was soaked in ice water.
It was frozen and gloomy. Joyce turned her head expressionlessly and was a little stunned to see what Tristan was holding The bucket of popcorn and Coke in his hands were so out of place with his limited-edition expensive cashmere coat.
When Tristan saw Joyce’s expression, he pursed his lips unnaturally and said, “It came with the tickets.” Joyce immediately believed it.
After all, Tristan did not look like someone who would buy such childish things. When they entered the hall, Joyce saw the ticket in his hand. ‘Hah! Horror movie?’ Joyce walked in expressionlessly.
There were only two couples in the entire hall, them and the young couple in front of them. After all, comedies were all the hype now, followed by literary films.
Thus, there was not much of a market for horror films. Tristan intended to sit next to Joyce when she placed the large bucket of popcorn on the seat between them.
