Chewing that piece of popcorn.
The overly sweet taste filled his mouth, and he felt a bit uncomfortable.
He didn’t really like sweets, especially something as sugary as popcorn.
Koa Jackson picked up the cola beside him and took a sip.
Even the straw tasted sweet.
Earlier, Mia Ginger had come in holding the popcorn, chattering away non-stop along the way.
Actually, it didn’t matter whether or not she watched the movie.
Or rather, being with Koa Jackson, how could she focus on the movie?
She couldn’t concentrate at all.
It was past nine in the evening.
Koa Jackson had sent her to the school gate.
Just as he was about to drive straight in, Mia suddenly spoke up: "There’s no need. Brother Jackson, just drop me off here. I want to buy something across the street."
"What are you buying so late?" Koa Jackson slowed down and asked.
"Just... something for girls," Mia whispered.
Koa glanced at her unexpectedly, seeming to understand a little, and nodded: "Buy it and go back early."
She unbuckled her seat belt and got out, standing by the roadside, waving goodbye to him.
Koa Jackson drove off.
She stood there silently, staring in that direction for a long time.
Dallas Taylor had stood not far behind her at some point.
He had come outside the school to buy something and saw this little girl as soon as he stepped out.
Standing on the roadside steps, waving goodbye to someone.
Now, even though that person had been gone for several minutes, she was still obstinately looking in that direction?
So reluctant to part?
Dallas really couldn’t stand it anymore and said sternly: "Mia Ginger!"
Mia seemed startled, suddenly turning around to look at him, her expression flustered, her face as pale as a ghost.
Dallas was also taken aback, not expecting her to be so easily frightened.
After a silent moment, he rarely smiled, somewhat apologetically saying: "Did I scare you?"
"It’s okay." Mia let out a breath and smiled faintly, "It was just so sudden."
"I saw you standing there for a while," Dallas gestured towards the direction Koa Jackson had left, "What were you so lost in thought about? Did your boyfriend drop you off?"
A boyfriend who drives a limited edition Bentley...
