Chapter 390 Allowing You to Forget Me Once
The studio fell silent in an instant.
Everyone held their breath, staring blankly at Isolde and Joshua embracing each other.
Isolde and Joshua were also stunned.
Just now, Joshua had instinctively reached out to catch her, but didn't expect to be bumped by her instead.
He lost his balance and fell straight onto the bed behind him.
Feeling the softness in his arms, Joshua's expression became dazed for a moment.
Joshua's palm around her slender waist felt soft and warm beneath it, making him reluctant to move away.
Isolde was the first to react, quickly getting up from him.
But her dress was too long. When she got up, she didn't pay attention and tripped again, falling back down.
A muffled groan came from above her head. Isolde wished she could find a hole to crawl into.
So embarrassing!
What on earth was she doing?
Joshua was the first to react. He gripped her waist with both hands and steadily lifted her off him, setting her aside.
"What are you all looking at? Get back to what you're supposed to be doing. Don't you have work to do?"
Joshua's angry shout scared away everyone who had been watching.
Although gossip is human nature, work is more important.
Joshua's gaze swept around the set. Seeing that no one was looking their way anymore, he felt relieved.
"Think about it yourself. When you're filming, don't let your mind wander. You must put yourself into the character."
He cleared his throat and reminded her seriously.
Isolde hunched her shoulders and mumbled a response.
Joshua looked at her deeply. A smile flashed in his eyes and disappeared, then he turned and left.
It seemed that Isolde hadn't realized he liked her yet.
But that was okay. He had plenty of time to wait for Isolde to find out.
……
Benjamin watched the rest of the movie feeling down, looking at Sophia with eyes full of resentment.
Sophia found it funny. "What's wrong with you now?"
Benjamin right now was like a little kid who needed to be comforted.
Of course, he was also easy to comfort.
She handed him the snacks she was holding and reached out to touch his hair.
"Be good, it's just a movie. It's not like I really died. Look, I'm still right here beside you."
The last scene of the movie showed the third female lead and third male lead dying in each other's arms in the snow.
Ever since Benjamin watched that scene, his whole body had been surrounded by a low pressure, with a deep sadness rising in his heart.
He reached out with his long arm, pulled Sophia from the chair next to him onto his lap, and held her tightly.
He wanted to merge her into his bones and blood.
He gently nuzzled Sophia's cheek and said softly, "I'm sorry..."
Besides those words, he didn't know what else to say.
Even though the scene just now was only a movie, Sophia's acting was so good that it seemed real.
The feeling of watching the person you love lose their breath bit by bit right in front of you was too painful.
He had always said he couldn't bear to let Sophia get hurt even a little.
But in the end, the person who hurt her the most was himself.
Sophia, being held tightly by him and feeling his body trembling slightly, finally understood that he was still blaming himself.
She gently patted his back and said with a light laugh, "This time I'll count it as you owing me. Remember to pay me back later."
Benjamin looked down at her with confusion.
Sophia explained, "To be fair, since you forgot me this time, you have to allow me to forget you once too."
Benjamin raised an eyebrow. "You really won't take any loss at all."
"Of course not."
Sophia hugged him, buried her face in his shoulder and nuzzled it, a hint of mischief flashing in her eyes.
Benjamin smiled indulgently. "Okay, I'll allow you to forget me once too, but not for too long... just one day."
"One day isn't enough. It has to be 756 days."
Two years and two months.
Not a day less.
"That's too long, Mrs. White. Can you be a bit flexible?" Benjamin gently tugged at her sleeve, showing a hint of grievance in his eyes.
Seeing him lower his stance, Sophia immediately said, "757 days."
"Just 756 days, not one day more."
The vein on Benjamin's temple twitched, feeling like he had fallen into Sophia's trap.
Sophia leaned in his arms, smiling like a little fox.
After they made this agreement, the topic was completely closed. Actually, neither of them really took it to heart.
Sophia said that just to have some fun with words.
Although her relationship with Benjamin hadn't gone through many heart-wrenching ups and downs, their love had long seeped into each other's hearts bit by bit.
By the time they realized it, they found that this love had already been carved into their bones.
Although they were separated for two years, it was also a test of their feelings for each other.
In many films and shows, when the main character loses their memory, they forget the person they love most.
Perhaps Benjamin was unique.
He did forget her, but the love carved into his bones never changed.
As long as it was her, no matter how much time passed, no matter whether those so-called memories existed or not, he would fall in love with her again.
Benjamin's embrace was too warm. Sophia gradually felt sleepy.
She quietly yawned and buried her face deep in Benjamin's neck, nuzzling it.
"Sleepy?"
"Yes."
Benjamin gently rubbed her hair, picked her up horizontally, and left the screening room with light steps.
"Sleep then."
"Okay..."
Sophia mumbled a response and fell asleep in Benjamin's arms.
Benjamin carried Sophia back to the bedroom and bent down to place her on the soft bed, only to find that Sophia had already fallen asleep.
He smiled helplessly, lowered his head and kissed Sophia's smooth, full forehead. "Good night, Sophia."
Perhaps because she was too tired, Sophia slept especially well that night.
When she woke up, she found it was already raining outside the window.
Benjamin had woken up long ago and was leaning against the headboard handling documents.
A thin laptop was casually placed on his lap, his deep eyes staring at the computer screen without blinking.
Noticing the movement beside him, he slowly shifted his gaze from the computer.
"You're awake?"
Sophia rolled on the bed and hugged his strong waist, acting cute. Her voice was soft and charming, with a bit of hoarseness from just waking up.
"Honey, hold me!"
A faint smile flashed in Benjamin's eyes. He immediately put the laptop on the bedside table and wrapped his arms around Sophia's slender, soft waist, pulling her into his embrace.
Then, a soft touch landed on the corner of his lips.
It was Sophia taking advantage of him leaning close, wrapping her arms around his neck and kissing him on the lips.
"Mr. White, good morning."
"Good morning, Mrs. White."
A title that was obviously quite ordinary made them both feel great.
Sophia pointed outside the window and asked him, "It's raining today, so we'll have to postpone our trip to the amusement park."
Benjamin said leisurely, "We really can't go. Finn called and told us to hurry over to the White Manor."
Actually, it was mainly for Sophia to go.
