Chapter 178
Patricia looked back at him. "Am I that weak in your mind's eye?" Ladies were usually faint-hearted, but
she was different. She had always liked those horror stories since she was little. Not only that, but she
also liked to play horror games, with Escape Room being the game she wanted to play the most at the
moment.
Ryan smiled. "You've never been weak."
Patricia was happy when she listened to the former school hunk's compliment. However, she used to
be a real personality who feared nothing in the past, and now she was like this because of the cruelty
of society. She gave a sigh. Well, God took away what qualifies me to go my own way, but he gave me
three cute babies. It's a good thing, I guess. It's just that I became a little sophisticated, but with the
three kids being so cute, I'm fine with becoming anything. At the thought of this, she smiled and no

When they arrived at the movie theater, Ryan collected the movie tickets and bought two cups of fruit
juice and a box of popcorn.
Patricia took the popcorn while smiling at him. "To be honest, Ryan, how many girlfriends have you had
before?" He understands ladies so well and bought me strawberry juice. Young ladies seem to like
such sour and sweet fruit juice, and I'm no exception.
Ryan was startled for a moment. "I've never had a girlfriend before. If you don't believe it, you can ask
Selina about it." Selina was their former class monitor. Moreover, she had an upright character and
never lied, so she was the most suitable person to be mentioned.
Upon hearing this, Patricia smiled. "I'm just asking. Don't be so nervous." She picked up a popcorn and
tossed it into her mouth before entering the movie theater with him.
Ryan had wanted to buy tickets for a love seat, but he was afraid of scaring Patricia since they had just
started going out. Therefore, he decided to take one step at a time. He bought tickets for two normal
seats that were side by side with each other.
They sat down and chatted for a while about other ex-classmates before the movie began.
Taking a sip of her fruit juice, Patricia stretched out her hand to grab a few popcorn, only to touch
Ryan's hand. As soon as their eyes met after that, she immediately retracted her hand, and both of
them smiled.
Ryan leaned closer to her while asking in a whisper, "Aren't you scared at all? I can lend you my arms
for a moment." With that, he spread his arms and opened his overcoat, causing her to be greeted by a
gust of warm air.
Just then, a tall figure came in through the entrance and spotted their location precisely.
Isaac's expression changed when he saw how Ryan opened his overcoat to wrap it around Patricia.
Then, he turned around and stepped out of the movie theater.

and the lights came on. Not only that, but the fire alarm even went off.
Patricia looked around them. "Is there a fire or something?" Seeing how everyone ran outside, she
immediately stood up. "Ryan, let's get out of here."
Sitting in his seat, Ryan looked around coldly, but he didn't find any signs of smoke or fire. Thinking that
something was amiss, he frowned slightly and stood up, feeling that today really wasn't his day. He
wondered what had gone wrong. He and Patricia had been leaning closer together, and he would soon
be able to kiss her. How regrettable, he thought. Despite his reluctance, it was pointless for him to insist
that they stay in such a situation. It won't work, I guess. There's no way she'd go along with it. He took
her hand. "Let's go and have dinner." Since they couldn't watch movies, they could go to a romantic
restaurant. The atmosphere there was nice, so he would also be able to get a step closer to her.
