“Thomas, do you have time after work tonight? There’s a new movie that everyone says is really good. How about watching it with me?”

After much hesitation, Molly finally gathered the courage to ask Thomas out.

However, Thomas opened his eyes and shook his head. “No, thanks. Maybe another time.”

He couldn’t afford to have the leisure to watch a movie right now. The news about Olivia dating was spreading like wildfire outside. No one knew which family would target her next. He had to protect Olivia around the clock.

As for watching a movie with Molly, he decided it would be better to wait until this matter was put to rest.

Thomas tried to refuse several times, but it was in vain. He had no choice but to yield.

After dinner, Olivia washed the dishes, bid Thomas goodnight, and went upstairs to rest.

It had been an exhausting day of work. She was even dozing off when she was in the middle of cooking.
