The Law of Attraction

Chapter 593: My Lips As Your Prize

Daryl stayed quiet as he listened to her talk. He slowly walked towards the car. He understood what Kenzie was saying. He should be happy that Kenzie finally learned to be more mature and would not bug him anymore but somehow something inside of him felt unsatisfied.

"I understand you Kenzie and it's good that you are growing up now. I hope you do well in the company and if you need any help you know you can always call me…" Daryl weakly replied.

Kenzie smiled and tightened her hold around his neck. "Just make yourself busy at work Daryl. I will come back to you soon if you're still single…" Kenzie teasingly whispered, making Daryl chuckle as he shook his head.

Kenzie did not want to force him to wait for her but she could not stop dropping hints on Daryl hoping he would remain single till she settled out everything because she knew it would take time and she herself could not tell how long.

"Focus on your battle and don't get distracted Kenzie. Besides, I really don't have plans in getting involved with anyone romantically. I have no time for it as well…" Daryl answered.

Kenzie had a naughty grin and said, "Good boy… Rest assured I will not keep you waiting for long so please be patient."

Daryl laughed and said, "Hey, don't assume anything. I'm just saying that it's not my priority right now."

Kenzie pouted her lips and buzzed, 'Denial King'.

"What?!" Daryl asked.

"Nothing, I said you should drop me to the mansion instead because I'm staying there behind closed doors. By the way, make sure you keep my father's condition to yourself. No one knows that he's in the hospital." Kenzie reminded him.

"Noted, Kenzie. We're here." Daryl said and stopped at the passenger side of his car and opened it as he turned around and gently bent so Kenzie could sit there.

Kenzie subconsciously bit her lower lip when Daryl leaned closer. She even closed her eyes, thinking she would have a kiss.

'Stupid, open your eyes,' her inner self scolded when she heard the seatbelt being pulled to her. She opened her eyes and leaned closer to give Daryl a peck on his lips.

Daryl stared at her, astounded.

She smiled and whispered, "Thank you for the piggyback ride. Do you want more rewards? How about having my lips as your prize?"

Daryl? moved back so quickly that he hit his head, making Kenzie chuckle.

His face was too red as he quickly turned to walk back to the driver's seat.

Inside the car, Kyle turned and said, "You did great…"

Sarah timidly answered, "Thanks. This case was actually really easy to win since the evidence related to it was almost spoon-fed to me. Daryl troubled himself too much for it…"

Kyle chuckled and commented, "Well those two look like they have something going on between them. Kenzie could ask Daryl to help her with the company matter as well right?"

"She won't do that. She wants Daryl out of the picture so she can focus more…" Sarah answered. Kyle got the grasp of the situation and nodded.

"Do you have any plans for tonight? Do you think you can spare some time to have dinner and watch a movie with me?" Kyle asked directly.

Sarah gulped, feeling the excitement all over her body but she did not want him to know it so she whispered, "Hmm…"

"If you have plans then we can do it some other time," Kyle uttered next because he did not want to pressure Sarah if she did not want to go out.

"I don't think I have any pending work in the apartment so we can go out now. Sorry, it took me a while since I have to recall my work and remember if there are any important things I should attend tonight," Sarah explained, making Kyle smile brightly.

"Let's have our first date today then," Kyle professed. It had been a while since he felt this excited being with a woman. He hoped Sarah had the same enthusiasm as him so that both of them could enjoy their first date.

Sarah was honestly squealing inside but she pressed her lips together to suppress herself from doing in front of Kyle. It was their first date!!

Kyle brought her to the most high-end mall in the Capital City and they checked the movie theatre first.

"What type of movies do you want to watch? I will let you pick this time but next time we will watch something I prefer if it's okay with you," she heard Kyle comment. She looked at the screenplay and thought, 'Should I choose a horror movie since it is very common on dates?'

Her face flushed at the thought of how she heard that dates in cinema could get sweeter with cuddling and kissing once the lights were off.

'But who in their right mind would do that? It sounds so shameless. Cinema is still a public place,' she mused.

Kyle smiled seeing Sarah was in deep thought so he asked, "What type of movies do you usually watch?"

"Hmm, suspense and horror. I prefer any of those two," Sarah honestly answered since she loved thrilling and suspense movies where she felt like she was on a roller coaster of emotions because of all the twists and turns.

"I thought most women liked romance," Kyle commented.

Sarah turned at him and asked, "How about you?"

Kyle smiled before he bashfully answered, "I like romance and drama."

"Seriously? Not action movies?" Sarah asked in disbelief.

"Is it weird? I guess I am a little weird then," Kyle said with a chuckle.

'He looks so cute,' Sarah gushed, staring at Kyle who had a blushing face and timid smile.

"It's not weird but I thought most men are into action-packed movies you know," Sarah said with a smile.

In the end, Sarah picked a horror movie and Kyle bought the tickets.

Sarah offered to buy some snacks but Kyle did not let her move and bought their snacks as well. They went inside the theatre and soon the movie began.

Sarah was not scared of horror movies so she was really stunned to see Kyle covered his eyes whenever a ghost would appear. She could feel his body stiffen as well and she was really caught off guard.

"You don't like horror movies?" she asked. She was aware that most men did not prefer this type of movie but she never saw any man reacting the way he did while watching a horror movie. Her twin brother for example maintains a blank expression and would comment, 'That's scary' but Abram never covered his eyes nor did his body tense up.

"I'm not a big fan of it. Those ugly scary ghosts get on my nerves," Kyle honestly mumbled.

Sarah chuckled and said, "Wow, I can't believe it… You're a big man scared of ghosts?"
