Chapter 596

Juan was surprised that Debra knew his favorite movie.

Debra remained completely unaware of his sudden change in demeanor. She casually selected the movie and pressed play. When she turned to glance at him, their eyes met, and his suspicion was plain as day.

It suddenly dawned on her. That was something Juan had mentioned before her rebirth.

She remembered clearly. Before her rebirth, on their first wedding anniversary, Melody had been pushing them to get closer. She had demanded they go on a date to the movies.

Debra had been thrilled. She asked what movie he wanted to watch, and he had casually mentioned‘ Absurd World‘. It had just come out back then. That night, after the movie, he had smiled at her for the first time while leaving the theater, saying it was a good film.

But after her rebirth, Juan had never mentioned his favorite movie.

Seeing the skepticism in his eyes, Debra quickly explained, “I remember Joe mentioning once that your liked this movie, so I figured I’d give it a shot.”

Her excuse, however, didn’t fool Juan. The film had just come out. He’d watched it before the p release since it was produced by his own company.

Joe wouldn’t have known, and the way Debra’s eyes darted slightly didn’t help. She was clearly hiding something.

Though Juan said nothing, doubt began to take root in his mind. Debra settled next to him, her heart pounding.

She had already watched this movie countless times before. In her past life, because Juan liked it, she convinced herself that liking what he liked would bring them closer. Even though this type of film wasn’t her thing, she forced herself through multiple viewings.

As they reached the halfway point, when she was finally starting to relax, Juan suddenly asked, “What happens next?”

“The male lead dies,” Debra blurted out.

Immediately, she regretted it.

“You’ve seen it before?”

“Yeah, I saw it in theaters. How else would I know the plot? Right?”

Debra forced herself to smile, but her stomach twisted with anxiety. She couldn’t help but notice his gaze growing even more peculiar,

“Who did you watch it with?” he pressed.

Debra had no idea how to answer. Just then, the crackle of fireworks erupted outside, and the previously dark living room suddenly bathed in brilliant flashes of light.

The noise broke the tension.

“I’ll go check it out,” Debra said, eager to escape the awkward conversation.

Juan grabbed her wrist. “I’ll come with you.”

He wasn’t about to let her wander off alone, not in an unfamiliar place like this.

“I’m just going to the door,” she protested lightly, but seeing the determination in his eyes, she relented.

Outside, they watched the fireworks bloom across the dark sky. It wasn’t something Debra saw often, an she found herself momentarily lost in the beauty.

“It’s beautiful,” she said. “Did you prepare it?”
