Chapter 169: No Crying

"Stop watching it, you don't look too happy," Eric said as he gently took Ella's hand and led her outside.

Ella figured the movie was nearing its end anyway, and with only a little time left, she didn't feel the need to finish it.

"Is that really the ending?" Ella asked softly, sensing that Eric didn't want her to stay and watch. She had a bad feeling about how it might conclude.

Could the ending… be even more tragic?

Eric raised an eyebrow, looking at her seriously. "Are you sure you want me to spoil it? It's a very sad ending. Do you really want to hear it?"

Ella bit her lip slightly, her soft red lips making Eric feel an overwhelming urge to kiss her.
