Chapter 396: A Romantic Date
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
About a minute later, Samantha hung her head low and walked out slowly.
She did not look around but walked straight in the direction of the exit. Her entire figure was like someone who had lost their will to live.
“Hey.” The man’s voice rang from behind all of a sudden.
Samantha stopped walking. She turned around and looked up to see the man standing beside a large plastic doll at the entrance.
The man was so good-looking that he was practically surrounded by girls who were blushing and chattering about him.
A surprised look appeared in Samantha’s eyes and her voice was slightly hoarse. “You... You didn’t leave?”
Timothy looked into her eyes and felt as though his heart had been pricked when he saw her reddish eye sockets.
It was a very slight pain but he still felt it.
He did intend to leave because the date he originally envisioned was a normal candlelight dinner that he could easily get done with. The most that might be added to that kind of date was a car ride to the top of a mountain to see the nightscape.
When he saw that the date venue Samantha set was an amusement park, he was extremely displeased and averse to the idea.
He knew exactly what kind of trick Samantha wanted to use on him.
Just because he accepted it did not mean that he condoned such childish and pointless ruses!
As a result, he happily accepted it when she told him to leave.
For some odd reason, he stopped at the entrance and turned around to glance at her.
She seemed rather sad when she stood there.
He found it incredulous. He and Samantha had fought countless times and he nearly ended her several times too, yet she never showed any sadness on those occasions.
Did she feel that sad just because he was going to leave?
He could not comprehend it at all, but despite feeling that way, he was incapable of walking any further he reached the entrance.
It somehow felt like he should not leave her like that.
Timothy raised his feet and walked to her. His thin lips parted and his voice was a little awkward, “I’m a man of my word. I promised to go on a date with you today, so I won’t just leave halfway.”
Samantha could not help but smile when she heard his words. “Then...are you going to wear the devil horn headband?”
Timothy’s face turned cold, “Don’t you know when to stop, Samantha? Don’t expect me to parade myself in this place while wearing that thing! It won’t happen!”
Samantha no longer persuaded him but merely pouted and had a very sad expression.
Timothy took two deep breaths and closed his eyes. A few seconds later, he opened them again and seemed to have decided to go all out—he put the devil horn headband on his head.
There were shouts of acclamation from all around. “Ahhhhh, so cute!”
“Ahhhh, so handsome!”
“Ahhhh, I feel like I need a ventilator!”
Timothy seemed annoyed by that group of idiotic women and grabbed Samantha’s hand all of a sudden to lead her away.
Samantha was pulled several steps forward before returning to her senses and she could not control herself from smiling.
She guessed right.
Timothy’s second personality was unmoved by force or persuasion.
Showing him her weak side would elicit looks of disdain while being tough with him would only make him feel annoyed and more alert.
However, being soft when she should be tough and vice versa seemed to suit his tastes completely.
The principle that had she had to live by was: do the unexpected and take the road less traveled.
Samantha watched him hold her hand and took the initiative to hold him back. Her fingers were interlaced between his and their fingers were tightly clasped together.
Timothy seemed surprised that she would make such a move and stopped walking all of a sudden. He then looked down at their interlaced fingers.
His black eyes then glanced at Samantha.
Although Samantha looked at him with glowing eyes as if she knew no shame, Timothy could still see the slight blush on the tips of her ears.
It was something akin to teasing, but not quite exactly that. The feeling resembled one’s heart being tickled, but one could not pinpoint where exactly it was even though it could still touch one’s heart.
Timothy’s heart began beating inexplicably again.
His intention was clear and that was to shake off her hand, but he could only let her continue holding him because he was unable to move his fingers.
The two of them did all sorts of stuff in the garden. At eight o’clock that evening, they even found an excellent location to watch the dazzling fireworks together.
They blended in with the crowd like an ordinary couple.
Samantha then took out her phone and aimed the front camera at them both while saying, “Smile, Timothy!”
Timothy refused with a cold expression, “No pictures!”
Samantha did not heed him at all and her fingers reached out suddenly to both corners of Timothy’s lips, pushing them up as she snuggled beside him to take the picture.
Timothy looked coldly at the picture she had taken on the phone and reached out to grab them. “Delete that.”
“No!” Samantha hid the phone behind her.
Timothy’s long arms hugged her from the front as he reached behind to grab it.
Samantha stepped back a couple of times to avoid his hands from reaching her phone.
A little boy came out of nowhere and bumped into Samantha, making it difficult for her to stand steadily and causing her body to fall straight back.
Timothy’s first instinct was to hug her and pull her back.
He pulled her hard enough that she fell directly into his embrace. Her forehead was pressed against his chest and she was enveloped by the aura coming from his body.
Although he was obviously not the main personality, the aura coming from his body was the same as that of the main personality.
It was so familiar that Samantha’s eyes suddenly became teary. She unconsciously reached out to hug him and murmured, “Timothy...”
Timothy’s entire body was given a jolt when her low, hoarse, and emotion-charged voice entered his ears.
The feeling of an electric current coursing through his body made him lose his strength momentarily. He was unable to push Samantha away from him, so much so that...he wanted her to remain in his arms just like that.
Sometime later, an extremely beautiful display of fireworks burst into the sky and snapped Timothy’s consciousness back.
He raised his hand suddenly and pushed Samantha away.
Samantha staggered back a couple of steps and glanced up at him with a somewhat blank expression. “What’s wrong?”
Timothy’s expression had turned cold and so did his voice. “Our date today is over, right?”
They spent almost the entire day from nine in the morning to nine in the evening.
Although Samantha felt that it was a shame it had ended, she knew very well that the time had come. She nodded and said, “Yes. It’s over.”
She smiled at him. “I’m very happy today. Thank you.”
Timothy’s handsome face remained expressionless and he emphasized, “I’m just fulfilling my end of the deal. Let’s go.”
When he said that, he did not wait for her to say anything and turned around to walk away.
Samantha looked at his indifferent rear figure and could not hold herself back from making a huge grimace at him.
Once a scumbag, always a scumbag!
She clearly felt that his attitude had relaxed slightly, although it had managed to regain his composure in an instant soon after.
His self-control and vigilance were stronger than she had imagined. Theodore was right, it was a pain to deal with someone like Timothy!
She was fortunate not to have underestimated him because everything that happened in the amusement park was just the beginning. The highlight of her meticulous preparation came next!
The two of them walked out of the amusement park and toward the parking lot.
Since their cars were parked in different spots, they were like strangers and Timothy did not bother to say goodbye to her. He walked straight to his car, got in, then started the car and drove away.
He was the typical scumbag who did not own up after he was done with something!
Samantha was not at all angry when she watched his car drive off.. Instead, her lips curled slowly into a smile.
