The lighting inside the cinema was dim, making it hard for Gavin to see Jolie's face clearly. However, he could sense her stiffness. He glanced at her deeply before his gaze shifted back to the screen.

The movie ended, and their hands remained intertwined the entire time. The warmth on Jolie's cheeks had subsided as they stepped outside. Glancing at the tall, handsome man beside her, her heart skipped a beat uncontrollably. "Jolie?"

At that moment, a voice called out from not far away.

Jolie froze, not turning around. The voice carried a hint of uncertainty, and the person's companion spoke in confusion, "Are you sure? Didn't they send Jolie abroad?"

The speaker was Jolie's cousin, Rosalie Quin, from her uncle's family.

Frowning slightly, Rosalie replied, "But she really looks like her."

Her friend scoffed. "You must be seeing things. Wasn't Jolie sent abroad? Didn't you mention her family even cut off her cards? I still can't believe she'd go to such lengths over a guy." Rosalie lowered her eyes and said no more.

The truth of the matter was something she had learned by chance.

Jolie's family had hosted two banquets, both attended by Gavin. Sensing an opportunity, they schemed to have Jolie try to seduce him.

But Jolie refused. She even went as far as announcing her boyfriend during her birthday party.
