Chapter 205

"Does a movie date sound good to you?" Lola paused as it was already eight in the evening. Wouldn't itbe too late for a movie?

Thomas noticed her look and laughed. "I have officially resigned from my job. I have plenty of time tohave dates with you from now on!" Harry had turned his back from her. Everything should be back tonormal, right?

Was this true? He resigned? But his job was very important to him. Lola stared at Thomas in disbelief."Why did you quit your job? You have already invested so much of yourself in it." She was secretlyhoping that he did it not because of her.

Lovingly stroking her long hair dyed in wine color, Thomas gave her a big smile. "It was too tiring. Itwas time for me to leave anyway. I have no regrets."

He was already thirty five years-old. He has devoted all his time and effort to the government and thecountry. He felt that he should do something for himself now.

Lola felt relieved as she found out that she shared the same sentiments with Thomas. She had beenfully occupied these days herself. She nodded in agreement, "Good for you. It has been the same forme too."

The chauffeur took them to Grandix Mall. Thomas had his sunglasses on as he walked side by sidewith Lola. There was an obvious awkward connection between them. Together, they went up to the topfloor.

Inside Grandix Cinema.

Yolanda and Joseph didn't do film together anymore. They each had their respective films in the primetime shows.

Without any doubts, Lola chose to watch the film Joseph starred in. It was a comedy.

Lola told Thomas to wait for her as she went to get them popcorn and soda.

She smiled at him and explained: "They are essential for watching a movie! Popcorn and soda! Withoutboth of these, it will be really boring just sitting and watching." Thomas smiled in glee when he saw hercharming, enthusiastic look.

"This is the first time I came to watch a movie. I don't know about that!" The old version of him hadabsolutely no time for this kind of activities. He was traveling between countries and cities, dealing withall kinds of public affairs. It was a time-demanding work.

His presence in the cinema turned several heads. Some young girls seemed to spot him and they keptcasting flirting glances at his direction.

The movie would start soon so they hurried into the viewing hall.

He had an eventful past and now the only thing he wished for was a simple life. He wished for a lifewhere he get to accompany the one he loved, occasionally go to the mall with her and enjoy a movie ortwo. This was what he longed for.

On their way to the hall, Thomas held the popcorn between his arm and chest so that he could hold the

soda in his left hand and use the right hand to hold Lola's hand.

Lola blushed and tried to get free from him. She could not deny that this was very sweet. However, heinsisted, so they walked into the hall hand in hand. The hall was almost full. Most of the audience weregirls and some couples were there as well. They came to watch Joseph, a very famous actingsuperstar in the entertainment industry.

Lola sighed in silence. She would like to clarify something with him before it was too late.

The movie started. Joseph's role in the movie was a young man whose previously rich family becamevery poor. Joseph's character in the movie went to Dubai to replace his loved one when his family went intobankruptcy. Gone were the days when he was just a spoiled brat with huge wealth. He was now ahumble man who had to work with his bare hands.

He met a girl on his way. All kinds of funny incidents happened along the journey Finally, he found hislover in Dubai but it turned out that she was already married. She turned her back on him when shefound out that his family has ran out of money. He became depressed but found solace in the girl thathe met on his way there.

This was a romantic comedy. The girl on their way to Dubai confessed her love to him but he turned itdown.

With a broken heart, Joseph returned to his own country. Starting again from scratch, he made hisfortune through several years of hard work. In the end, he became a self-made billionaire. His ex-girlfriend changed her mind upon seeing him become successful again. The girl he went to Dubai withaccompanied him during his days of hard work. But she left him without notice when he finally becamesuccessful. It was all very ironic.

Joseph's role came to a conclusion when the girl who accompanied him when he had nothing wasactually the one he needed to cherish most in the world. He looked for her everywhere and after twoyears, he found her working in a restaurant somewhere abroad. The movie had a happy ending.

The early parts of the movie were very amusing while the latter part was quite emotional and moral.Joseph did a great job in playing the role. He interpreted the main character vividly. The audience wasenchanted by his fine acting.

The movie was indeed a success. Lola overheard some comments from the audience when she wasslowly leaving the hall with Thomas. Their compliments to her brother made her heart jump with joy.

It was almost eleven in the evening now. The streets had hushed to sleep and most of the stores hadclosed. They didn't go straight to the car. Instead, they strolled on the road while the chauffeur followedthem not far from behind.

"Mr. Herren." Lola opened her mouth. She drew out all her courage as she knew she had to face thismatter urgently.

Thomas turned his face to her and smiled gently. He could tell from her look what she was about to sayto him. He had prepared for this.

"Yes?" He had a fun evening. He was willing to accept whatever came in his way. His smile faded as heturned his head away from her.

"I still can't forget about him. But at least you can forget about me! I'm sorry." She spitted it all out asshe bravely looked up at his handsome face.

Sure enough!

Thomas's face was expressionless. He paused, stared at Lola for a moment, and opened his mouth:"Even though he is going to get married soon? Lola, you have to move on too."

"Thomas, sometimes, I really wish that Yolanda could disappear from the world. She has taken somuch from me." It was because of her that she could not be with the one she really loves.

Thomas held her trembling hand tightly as he gazed at her pale face. "Lola, don't be silly, you still haveNicole! You have to be contented with that because she also needs to see you happy and fulfilled."

Of course, she knew. Her sweet Nicole. If she ever killed Yolanda, she would be brought to justice andthen Nicole would no longer have her as her mother. But she can't be that kind of a mother and aperson that Nicole would follow…

Sadly, she couldn't help but freak out when the thought of Harry came to her mind. He occupied hermind completely. She missed his sexy lips, his profound gaze, even his unpredictable temper. Shemissed every bit of him. Even the bad parts of him.

He really went out to save Nicole's life without thinking about his own safety. The thought of Harry'sheroic move made Lola's heart hurt. They both loved each other so much. Why couldn't the universe letthem be with each other? Why?

He didn't know yet that Nicole was his own daughter. But he would sacrifice his life for hernevertheless. If he ever found out that Nicole was his own daughter, would he give her everything inthe world?

Lola also regretted that she didn't agree to his proposal the other night that the three of them couldleave everything behind and move to another place like Echo Bay and live happily there.

Thomas looked at Lola and felt her pain. He thought for a moment and then said to her in a determinedvoice, "I know you are concerned about Nicole. You are worried that Harry's family would not acceptyou and would rather take Nicole away from you. What about you have two Nicoles?"

Things might change a little bit, right? If two "Nicoles" were not able to make Harry and his familychange their minds, probably Lola fell in love for the wrong person.

He would definitely not be worthy of Lola's tears...

Lola was absolutely shocked when she heard his words. She studied his face seriously in the dim light.

The street light was shedding warm glow on him and he looked bright and angelic.

Two "Nicoles"… he meant two children...

"Harry's wedding is scheduled in two months' time. It should be enough for you!" Swallowing down hisown feelings, Thomas gave Lola a reassuring smile.

He was not happy at all when he saw the sadness on her face. But he could not do anything than justbe with her through this hard and difficult stage of her life. He would only feel happy once she cheeredup.

Lola's eyes were getting a bit teary as she murmured to herself in a small voice, "But he is now in

Uthana. He won't give me the chance!"

Thomas gazed at her pale face and could tell she was now desperately relying on him for an answer.

He sighed deeply, saying, "Instead of you going after him, why don't you trick him into seeing you? Itwould work. Just trust me, Lola."
