Nora Scott was rendered speechless by him.
The murderous aura around her grew stronger, and Pedro Langley wisely stopped pushing his luck.
Lowering his gaze, he glanced at her slender hand under her sleeve, and instinctively reached out to hold her cold hand, then led her outside, "Let's go, I'll borrow your car and treat you to a meal."
His actions were too casual and natural.
His palm was warm and firm, and at that moment of being held, Nora's heart seemed to drop and skip a beat, creating an illusion of them actually being in a relationship.
It felt like an ordinary cold war, an ordinary quarrel, and then, an ordinary reconciliation.
This familiar feeling washed over Nora, causing a moment of hesitation. By the time she came back to her senses, Pedro was already leading her out of the row of seats.
Inexplicably, Nora did not shake him off.
She allowed Pedro to lead her all the way out of the theater.
