Chapter 147 Irresistible
The movie hadn't started yet, and people were still trickling in.
Nora suddenly realized she didn't even know what movie they were going to see.
She asked, "What are we watching?"
Aaron, sitting beside her, leaned in a bit closer, "Don't worry, it's definitely not a horror flick."
They were seated so close that his warm breath brushed the delicate fuzz on her ear, causing her heart to race.
Nora couldn't help but shrink back, shuffling to the side.
"Mr. Gordon, could you move over a bit? You're too close."
Aaron raised his eyebrows slightly, chuckling at her discomfort, "Nora, these are love seats. There's only so much space. Where do you expect me to go?"
Why did he have to book loveseats?
Nora inwardly complained, feeling the warmth of his arm and leg, and swallowed hard.
She was feeling the urge to flee. What should she do?
Finally, the lights dimmed, and the movie began.
Nora let out a sigh of relief, sitting up straighter and shifting to the side as much as she could.
Aaron noticed her subtle movements, arched his eyebrow, and shifted his leg a tad closer to her side.
Nora resisted the urge to speak up and started to focus on the movie.
That's when she realized they were watching a romance film.
Those little rascals were quite the planners.
Nora grumbled to herself internally.
"Here."
Aaron offered her the popcorn he was holding.
Nora reached out to take it but was stopped by him.
"I'll hold it for you."
Nora cast a glance at him, too lazy to waste her words, and grabbed a handful of popcorn, chewing it leisurely.
Aaron's lips curled into a smile as he took the popcorn back and placed it in its designated spot on the chair.
Nora continued munching on the popcorn, letting herself become immersed in the movie.
The movie was titled "Contract Lovers."
Its plot revolved around a man and a woman who, for their respective reasons, needed to marry and thus signed a contract. They entered into a sham marriage, only to fall deeply in love after starting with no affection for one another.
The lead characters had a love-hate relationship, making the storyline quite entertaining.
Nora watched with great interest, often bursting into laughter in tune with the unfolding scenes.
In the darkness, her bright almond-shaped eyes sparkled, drawing attention.
Aaron watched her profile, the corners of his lips slightly upturned as he offered her a sip of his drink.
Nora was engrossed in the film, didn't think much of it, and naturally took a sip through the straw.
A flash of amusement crossed Aaron's eyes.
He leaned closer and whispered in her ear, "Nora, the drink you just had was from my cup."
Nora was focused intently on the screen, watching the story progress.
Caught off guard by Aaron's words, she replied without much thought, "So what if it is? Don't be so stingy."
Aaron raised an eyebrow and then couldn't help but let out a soft chuckle.
He enjoyed her response!
"Here, have a bit more."
Nora opened her mouth and took another sip, only fully grasping the situation after swallowing.
She turned sharply to look at the drink, "What did you just say? This is your drink?"
This man, he did that on purpose!
"Yes."
"You..."
"Shh, watch the movie."
Aaron's slender finger touched his lips, signaling her to focus on the movie.
Suddenly, the screen shifted to a more suggestive scene.
The female and male leads, through continuous interaction, developed feelings for each other.
On a stormy night, they found themselves alone in a room, and, like a spark to Tinder, adult activities ensued.
The explicit sounds filled the room with their intensity, amplified by the sound effects.
The filmmakers had been bold. The passionate kissing scenes and even the undressing were depicted in great detail.
Nora's breathing hitched as her pretty face heated up involuntarily.
She looked away for a moment, only to find the couples around her kissing without restraint!
This atmosphere made her want to transform into a bird and swiftly escape this charged environment.
Nora swallowed hard, her body involuntarily shrinking down.
Like a quail, she seemed to believe that this might lower her presence.
A man's deep, magnetic voice reached her ears.
"Can you even see the screen from that position?"
Nora's heart skipped a beat, and as the man's handsome face encroached upon her space, she felt her mouth go dry.
The suggestive sounds coming from the screen persisted, and Nora swallowed hard as she looked at the handsome face of the man who was mere inches away from her. Abruptly, she stood up.
"I-I'm going to the restroom."
Aaron remained silent.
Such a shy young lady!
He caught hold of her hand, "Come with me, help me up."
Nora's eyes flickered, feeling the heat radiating from the large hand that gripped her own. She swallowed hard again, doing her best to steady her racing heart as she helped him to his feet.
Aaron immediately wrapped his arm around her shoulder and walked with her toward the restroom.
Once outside, the air felt eerily still, devoid of the suggestive noises, and somehow seemed fresher.
Nora couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.
However, just as she relaxed, she found herself pushed up against a wall.
Aaron's tall frame loomed over her.
Taken aback, before she could say a word, her chin was grasped, and his thin lips covered her blushing ones, his pleasant scent enveloping her.
What was he doing?
He was actually boldly kissing her!
Nora's eyes widened, and her mind went blank.
"Close your eyes," the deep, velvety voice of the man whispered, a hint of seduction in his tone.
Unconsciously, Nora complied.
A smile flickered across Aaron's eyes as he savored the sweetness he had long desired.
Memories of joyful moments slowly surfaced in his mind.
The sweetness of the girl made him want more, and he sought to pry her lips apart.
Nora's head spun, and she could feel the tension in the man's body.
As a doctor, she was well aware of the human anatomy and knew that, at this moment, the man was clearly moved.
Her dazed expression snapped back to reality.
She suddenly opened her eyes and pushed him away forcefully.
"Mr. Gordon, what are you doing?!"
Aaron's dark eyes were as deep as the night, his chest rising and falling.
He looked at her flushed face and swallowed hard his voice husky, "I'm sorry, I just couldn't help myself."
He was a man and was watching a romance film. How could he remain unaffected in the face of the woman he liked? Could he still be called a man if he did?
If there was a bed nearby, he would have taken her right there and then!
Nora's breathing was also uneven. She took a deep breath, trying to calm herself.
"Mr. Gordon, our relationship is merely that of a doctor and a patient. Wasn't your behavior just now a bit frivolous?"
Aaron gazed at the gradually fading blush on her face, leaning in a little closer.
"Doctor and patient? Nora, after all this time, do you think I can still see you as just a doctor?"
Nora's eyes flashed with a complex emotion, reflecting on their interactions over this period.
"Mr. Gordon, what you think of me is your business. I only see you as a patient."
