False Love After BetrayalChapter 1

I stood still in front of the cinema, feeling the cold wind made me shiver. It was Valentine's Day and I was patiently waiting for Hendrix Jennings to arrive so we could celebrate this special day.

I had already called him four times, but he didn't respond. When I tried for the fifth time, he finally answered the call.

"Hey, the movie has already started for two hours. Where are you?" I asked, puzzled.

"I'm so sorry, but I forgot we have an appointment tonight," Hendrix reasoned on the other line.

The background noise on the other line was a bit noisy, almost making him almost not audible.

I closed my eyes and added, "Gosh. We booked movie tickets a week ago. How did you forget it? I've been looking forward to this movie premiere for a long time, yet you just forget."

"That's why I want to apologize," Hendrix replied. "I am so sorry, but I am a little busy here. Maybe we can talk about it later."

Suddenly, a charming female voice was heard on the other line, confusing me a lot.

"Hendrix, the doctor, had just called us," said the woman.

However, I couldn't hear further as the call suddenly ended, leaving only the busy beeping sound.
