Love Began with the First Meeting

Chapter 120 Got Used to Being Kidnapped (Part Two)

At the thought of it, Shirley immediately closed the photo and angrily threw her phone aside. She would forget her unhappiness as long as she didn't see his photo anymore.

"Aunt Shirley!"

A happy voice interrupted Shirley's thoughts. Shirley turned her head around and saw Molly waving at her. Molly nodded to the waiter and picked up her pace to Shirley's table. Cheerily, she greeted,"Hello, Aunt Shirley!"

"Little Molly, come! Sit here!" Molly's presence brought back the happy smile on Shirley's face. "Please have a seat," Shirley urged gently as she rang the bell, asking the waiter to take their orders.

Like Molly, Shirley also wasn't given to indulgent luxuries. So both of them placed simple orders and ate their food happily. According to Shirley, a shared meal was delicious, as long as you enjoyed the company with whomever you were having the meal. If she liked the person, even instant noodles would be a delicacy. Likewise, disagreeable company would turn the rarest delicacies to something unsavory.

"Little Molly, have you got a boyfriend?" squinting at Molly with a smile, Shirley asked. She got excited again as she remembered her question earlier when she asked where Molly was, and Molly answered that she was at home. Did she mean Brian's villa was her home?

Hearing Shirley's question, Molly paused in a daze. She shook her head and said,"No, not yet."

"I can't believe it. You are such a good girl! Is it true that you don't have a boyfriend?" Grabbing the fork in her hand, Shirley leaned towards Molly, eager to know the answer.

Molly grinned and shook her head.

"Oh, you're such a nice person. How much I hope that you can have a chance to get together with my son. I am sure you two will have a happy life!" Shirley said with a sincere look in her eyes.

Although this was only their second meeting, Shirley believed that Molly was the perfect match for Brian. Brian was a demon, and Molly was an angel. They would be just a match made in heaven!

At least, she thought that Molly was much better than Becky Yan. Although Becky also was good- looking and mannerly, still, not knowing why, Shirley didn't like Becky very much.

But, of course, no one could make a choice for others when it came to the matter of love. If Brian really loved Becky, she would do nothing to prevent him. However, much to Shirley's surprise, Brian had kept Molly by his side after Becky went away. It was possible that Brian had some special feelings towards Molly.

Shirley decided to poke into it later. If Molly would become her daughter-in-law, then they could worship the superstars together.

As Shirley pictured the happy scenes in her mind, she couldn't restrain her laughter.

Looking at Shirley's sudden laughing face, Molly frowned in confusion and called,"Aunt Shirley..."

"Oh, oh. I am okay!" Shirley realized her strange behavior and said smilingly. "I was just thinking if you were my daughter-in-law or my daughter, that would be so wonderful. We could worship our idols and talk about gourmet together. My daughter and my son are always very busy. They don't have much time to keep me company."

Touched by Shirley's words, Molly thought, 'The ties of kinship might not be that strong in those rich families.' She had experienced something like this in her once wealthy family. In her childhood, she hardly saw the so-called father, except once a week. Back then, she only had a nanny to stay with and that woman who always wanted to drive her away.

"Little Molly, if I want us to hang out next time, would I have your company again?" Shirley asked with anticipation in her eyes.

The word 'yes' was on the tip of Molly's tongue, but she refrained as she thought of leaving the city very soon. It felt bad that she might not be able to hang out with Shirley again, but in order not to upset her, Molly answered,"If the time is okay, I will come and be your company again."

The sadness beneath Molly's words was perceptible to Shirley, so she didn't press. Instead, she changed to another topic.

However, Shirley still kept playing interesting scene in her mind. If Molly would become her daughter- in-law, they'd work together to sabotage Richie and Brian, those two men who always wore a poker face.

The happy hours always flew fast. Unknowingly, Shirley and Molly had already been chatting happily at the restaurant for the whole afternoon. It wasn't until Antonio informed her of the time that Shirley remembered the concert was about to begin.

A City was a leading metropolis in the world, with a highly advanced economy. The city's legalization of gambling contributed to the growth of hotel, tourism and entertainment industries, making the city alluring, especially for the super-rich who enjoyed luxury and extravagant spending. Although gambling also made the city a dangerous melting pot for organized crimes, still, it didn't dampen the allure of A City.

In the Star Public Stadium

Hosting a concert for Park Shin Chun, arguably the most popular celebrity of the day, huge crowds of people started gathering outside the stadium from very early in the day. By the roadsides, a lot of vendors were selling their merchandise. Braving the cold weather, the gathering crowds were simply ecstatic.

In casual clothes, Shirley made trips among the groups of roadside vendors, holding Molly's hand. Within a short time, they had already bought all the necessary items they'd need for the concert tonight.

Molly's light-complexioned face had turned pink in the biting cold weather, making her exceptionally cute. A bright and pure smile spread across her face; her eyes turned in a beautiful slight curve to the smile. Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

"Flashlights, light boards..." Carefully checking all the items in their hands, Shirley nodded in satisfaction and said,"All complete!"

"Aunt Shirley, this is my first time ever to a concert. I am so excited!" unable to control her excitement, Molly yelped happily. She soon blended into the carnival atmosphere like a violin blending into brass in a symphony.

Shirley smiled at Molly's excited look, yet, a dash of bitterness flashed through her eyes. She suddenly thought of those difficult years when she was around Molly's age. At that time, every day, she had to wash a lot of plates and bowls in a smelly, narrow lane, while carrying Wing on her back. Her hands were sore and swollen - the effects of soaking in the water all day long. Despite the pains, she had no other option, seeing that she had to raise Wing by herself.

At that time, she had never expected that she would have the luck to find the most admirable love in the world. She was so fortunate to have owned Richie's love for her.

Looking at the increasing crowds of people outside the stadium, Antonio slightly furrowed his brows with worries and stared at the two women in front of him. They had only two tickets, which were initially for Shirley and Antonio. But now, due to Molly's appearance, he had no ticket to follow them in. He tried to buy one on the spot but failed, because Park Shin Chun was so popular now that his tickets were like gold dust.
