Chapter 34: Movie About Vampires
Samson smiled slightly when he heard Lucasta’s constant questions. Fortunately, she’s grown up so she doesn’t ask as many questions as before.
If Calantha had met Lucasta ten years ago, perhaps the rich lady would have run away because she felt annoyed.
Calantha’s patient explanation made Samson have a pretty good impression of her. He loves Lucasta, so he appreciates everyone who treats her well.
He feels happy because his sister also knows how to choose good people to associate with.
– Samson, help me hold this. Lucasta called out loudly when she saw Samson entering the cinema door.
– Why did you buy so much? – He asked as he took two bags of popcorn from Lucasta’s hand.
She smiled brightly and continued to receive another bag of popcorn from the salesperson’s hand.
Just like what Calantha described, the smell of popcorn was very fragrant and its crunchy, sweet taste made her salivate continuously.
– Calantha bought them. I’m just waiting to receive them. She was busy answering the phone.
Lucasta had just finished speaking when Calantha also returned. Although she was still smiling, Samson easily realized that she was in a bad mood.
If he guessed correctly, something was wrong with her.
The future heir of Workday is not easily affected by the pressures of work, so he thinks she is sad because of her love life.
The ticket for him originally belonged to her boyfriend. He didn’t know what that man had that was so important to handle that he let his girlfriend go to the movies alone.
– Let’s go inside.
Calantha spoke up and went in first. Samson and Lucasta also quickly followed her.
The blonde girl was extremely excited when she saw the huge TV screen broadcasting the introduction of the main characters.
– Samson, that vampire guy is really handsome, he has the same eye color as you. Lucasta leaned into Samson’s ear and whispered.
Although Samson knew Lucasta was only saying what she saw, he was a little worried.
He didn’t answer her, but just nodded slightly and put popcorn in his mouth, his eyes still looking towards the big screen.
It was not unexpected for Samson because the name of the movie said it all. In human imagination, vampires have always been assumed to be evil and cruel creatures.
The content of the film revolves around the journey of the main character, a human boy, who goes to rescue his sister who is imprisoned in an ancient castle by a bloodthirsty vampire.
The image of the character in the movie is completely different from Samson himself and the vampires he used to know.
Perhaps that character is just like a vampire in appearance, tall, handsome, and blindly in love with a human girl like him and Vincent.
– It’s scary, he killed a lot of people and drank their blood. – Lucasta whispered and held Samson’s hand tightly out of fear.Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
– They’re just acting, it’s not real, don’t be afraid. He softly reassured her.
One hundred and twenty minutes pass and the film closes with a satisfying ending.
The student successfully rescued his sister by placing crosses blessed by the priest at all the doors and windows in the castle.
The mysterious light emitted from there made the vampire struggle and then disappear.
– Let’s go eat something. Suddenly, I want to drink some wine. Calantha spoke up as soon as all three of them walked out of the movie theater.
– Okay. I also feel hungry. Lucasta nodded in agreement.
– But I can’t drink wine. Samson honestly said.
– It’s okay, you and Lucasta just need to eat. I need someone to sit with me.
The luxury car quickly took them to a popular restaurant.
It’s not because Calantha is stingy, but right now she absolutely doesn’t want the rich to discover her and come to say hello because luxury restaurants are where they often go to dine.
She needs private space just for her and her two new friends.
The restaurant’s classic decor reminded both Samson and Lucasta of their castles.
However, Samson’s greater nostalgia is placed on Lucasta. As for her, she only wanted to go back to the castle occasionally and didn’t want to live her whole life in the deep, lonely forest.
– You two choose your food. The food here is very delicious. Calantha pushed the menu towards Samson and said.
– Order your food, Lucasta. I will eat with you.
– Are you also allergic to garlic like Lucasta? Calantha looked at Samson and asked.
– Right. Both of our parents are allergic to garlic, so we don’t eat it either. Its smell is very foul.
The menu continued to move from Samson’s hand to Lucasta’s.
While the blonde girl was looking intently there, Calantha was staring intently at Samson.
If she remembered correctly, Harvey also said that he was allergic to garlic and that there was no garlic in the meal that day.
– Previously, I went out to eat with Aurora and I ordered a dish with garlic but I couldn’t eat it because the smell made me uncomfortable. Lucasta spoke up.
Calantha greatly admires Lucasta because she has a brother who is almost perfect in both appearance and personality.
Lucasta’s rather childish personality proves that she is very pampered and cared for by her brother.
– Samson, how old are you? You look younger than me. Calantha asked while turning off the phone.
– Ah. I am thirty years old. He replied.
– Are you a vampire? It’s unbelievable. If Lucasta hadn’t introduced you as her brother, I might have assumed you were a teenage boy.
– I’ll take it as if you’re praising me.
– What work do you do? Are you also an employee of Star Corporation?
– He just stays home and cooks for me. He is very rich and does not need to make money. – Lucasta quickly answered on behalf of Samson.
Samson’s regal aura helped Calantha realize that he was not middle class from the moment she met him, so when she heard Lucasta say that, she was not surprised at all.
Truly wealthy families are usually very secretive, so she didn’t ask for more details.
She really didn’t expect that the girl who didn’t have enough money to take a taxi was actually a rich lady but she worked to make money like any other normal worker.
– Calantha, are vampires real? Lucasta suddenly asked.
– I think there is. I’ve heard old people tell stories about Dracula. Calantha’s voice became ghostly.
– Oh my God. How do we recognize them? We will only recognize them when we have been captured by them, right? Lucasta clearly showed fear.
– Come on. Don’t be so worried. Dracula is just a fictional vampire in novels. From the time I was born until now, I have never seen any vampires. Calantha laughed.
Even though Calantha said so, Lucasta still believes that vampires are real. Every time a handsome guy walks into the restaurant, she stares at them and observes their every move.
If Samson was not her brother, she would probably suspect that he and Harvey were vampires because they were so handsome and much younger than their real ages.
Vampire hunting activities are always held secretly to not scare people, so Calantha and those living in the city are completely unaware of the existence of this bloodthirsty creature.
Only a little vague information leaked out, so they thought that vampires were created from old people’s stories to scare children when they were too stubborn and disobedient.
The meal ended when the clock struck ten at night.
Because Samson and Lucasta insisted on taking a taxi rather than bothering Calantha, she had to say goodbye to the two of them here and then drive back to her luxurious villa.
The phone was turned on by Calantha and the messages kept appearing.
Calantha didn’t read them because she knew all the messages were from her boyfriend. Time has changed the gentle and honest guy.
Since Eric graduated from school and went to work, the time he spent with her became less and less.
Furthermore, he continuously borrowed money from her under the pretext of needing to build relationships to advance at work so he could get married and take care of his children.
She was blindly in love and didn’t think about anything until the detective sent pictures of Eric embracing another girl to her phone, then she realized she had been betrayed.
He used her money to flirt with a girl whose status and education were not inferior to hers.
– Ridiculous. Calantha, you should be happy now that you’ve realized his true nature. Why are you so sad?
Her tears flowed down, wetting her beautiful face.
Also because she didn’t want Eric to feel inferior when he knew she was the daughter of the president of Workday company, she hid her golden identity.
She intended that when the love between them was strong enough, she would tell him the truth, but it seemed like she no longer had the chance.
Turns out, he is also a bad guy, passionate about material things and disdaining love.
When Calantha returned to the villa, Samson and Lucasta had just entered the yard. Lucasta kept looking into the dark corners of the yard because she was worried that there was a vampire lurking waiting to suck her blood.
– If I knew you would be scared like this, I would have stopped you from watching that movie. If you keep this up, you’ll get paranoid. Samson frowned and grumbled.
– Please buy a cross for me. Buy a cross, bring it to church, and ask the priest to sprinkle holy water on it. As long as I have the cross, I’m not afraid anymore. She clung tightly to his arm and begged.
– Lucasta, our parents only worship the sun god Apollo. He won’t be happy if you want a cross.
She let go of his arm and quickly returned to her room and closed the door.
He had never talked about the god named Apollo with her and now he used Apollo to refuse to give her a cross.
Samson stood silently in front of Lucasta’s room for a long time. Every time his hand lifted up to knock, his reason forced him to retract his hand.
Actually, he doesn’t worship Apollo. More accurately, Samson hated Apollo because Apollo was the one who caused his life to fall into tragedy by a curse in anger.
The family’s religious beliefs were the only thing that could keep Lucasta from bringing things that would make him and Harvey miserable.
He couldn’t imagine Harvey’s appearance if she brought the cross into the company and pulled it out in front of that platinum-haired vampire.
At Star Group, there has been a long-standing rule that when anyone steps through the gate, religious-related items will be left outside.
The reason is because the top leader is inherently an atheist and he does not like to see those items appear before his eyes.
