1/2
Joshua was confused and asked, “Overname?”
What were they supposed to overcome?
As he tried to figure out Cynthia’s intentions, she turned on the TV and stopped at the
movie section, glancing at him, “Are you scared of gory things or ghosts?”
“Huh?” Joshua began to act clueless.
At this moment, he understood that Cynthia probably wanted to watch horror or
suspenseful movies with him.
“If you’re not sure, we’ll watch one type at a time.”
Cynthia calmly started selecting a movie, choosing the scariest thriller suggested online.
“Coincidentally, I m also scared, so let’s overcome it together.”

“Are you scared of ghosts?” Jeshua asked skeptically.
Cynthia nodded calmly. “Yes.”
“Cynthia, you’re joking, right? You don’t seem like someone scared of these things.”
Joshua got a bit closer to her.
Cynthia had remained calm since Nadia appeared. Even when she saw the things in the
room, she never showed any signs of panic or fear.
That kind of reaction meant she was scared, right?
“People who don’t know me think I’m not afraid. But in reality, I’m terrified of these things.
I could handle it calmly just now because I have a responsibility to protect you. If I’m
scared, what will you do?” Cynthia confidently lied.
Joshua was taken aback
Was she really scared?
“II;
I you had observed carefully just now, you would have noticed that my palms were
covered in cold sweat when I saw the things in your room. And when Nadia appeared, my
heart was pounding, and my whole body went stiff,” Cynthia continued
with her bes.
She gambled that Joshua was too caught up in his act earlier to notice the details, and he
had no idea she was lying to him now.
Upon reflection, Joshua had indeed overlooked a crucial detail
According to Joshua’s current personality, even if it were a facade, he would have asked
who Nadia was when she appeared in his room and wondered how she got into his room.
However, he did not.
Throughout, he was only focused on being scared and telling Cynthia that he was afraid.
He seemed completely indifferent to Nadia’s appearance.
“Coincidentally, we’re both scared, so let’s overcome it together tonight. Cynthia brought
two blankets and gave one to him while starting the suspenseful movie,
“Wait!” Joshua grabbed the remote from her and pressed pause.
Cynthia glanced at him, still appearing indifferent. “What’s wrong?”
Joshua changed his mind, looking at her with a particularly serious paze. “Tus not scared
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmanymore. Cynthia, from now on, protect you.”
Cynthia raised an eyebrow. Just as she suspected, he was acting.
“Weren’t you scared just now? Cynthia did not expose him. If he wanted to act, she would
play along with his act
I’ll
“I was scared, but when there’s someone to protect, I can overcome those fears. From
now on, with me around, you can leave
those things to me,” Joshua sald with genuine seriousness.
Cynthia looked at him as if doubting whether he could do that.
Her acting and Joshua’s were different.
Joshua was purely seeking Cynthia’s attention, wanting her eyes to be only on him, which
often led to loopholes in his act. However, Cynthia was different. She took her time, paid
attention to all the details.
“If you don’t believe me, I can watch this movie with you till the end and prove that I’m
not lying, Joshua said earnestly, completely opposite to the scared person he was a
moment ago.
