Love Began with the First Meeting

Chapter 397 She Is The True Love Of My Life (Part Three)

Brian stopped and turned around. He looked at Tony, "Make two fake IDs for Steven and Daniel to get them out of the country. I don't want Mol to see them anymore."

Tony looked at his boss' back with a surprised look on his face.

'What's Mr. Brian Long doing? What are his intentions? Is he flushing out all the people who might end up hurting Molly?'

Tony frowned. A horrible feeling swelled inside him like a venomous bubble.

Brian didn't return to the hospital. Instead, he went to the farm at Sunset Town. It had only been a few days since the last time he had seen Steven. But now he looked withdrawn and sorrowful as he sat in front of the mortuary refrigerator which had Sharon's body. His hair was matted. He looked gaunt with his thick beard. Life had broken him and he had grown old overnight.

Steven turned around when he heard somebody come in. When he saw Brian, he stood up instantly and stared fiercely into his eyes.

Brian felt disgusted after looking at him. But his face remained cold. He did feel grateful that Steven had been using him to protect Molly. After all, he only realized that he loved Molly because they had been through all of this fiasco. But he couldn't forgive him for hurting Mol so much.

"Mr. Brian Long," Steven said in a dry and hoarse voice, "Could you allow Molly and Daniel to come see Sharon?"

"Mol doesn't know that Sharon is dead," Brian said coldly, "And I don't want her to know it."

"Why?"

Brian sneered and said, "Although Sharon had never treated her like a daughter, Mol still loves her and wants her affection. If she finds out that Sharon is dead, do you think she will be able to accept it easily?"

"But this would be her last chance to say goodbye to her mom!" Steven clenched his fists, "She'll regret it for the rest of her life if she doesn't see her mother one last time."

"Regret?" Brian sneered, "I'll make up for all her regrets. And I've also asked my men to make arrangements to send you and Daniel abroad."

"No! I won't leave the country. I will not leave Molly alone!" Steven reacted strongly to Brian's orders.

The corners of Brian's mouth lifted ever so slightly. Walking slowly towards Steven, Brian said in a cold and indifferent tone, "You won't leave? You listen to me well... I'm not asking for your permission. This is an order and you will obey. I could just transport you out of the country by force. I'm only informing you this because I'll be telling Mol that you left the country on your own terms."

As Brian came another step closer to him, an invisible pressure swept over him and he started to suffocate. He finally realized that Brian had truly fallen in love with Molly. He said, "Okay, I'll leave. But I need to sort out my business here before I can leave the country."

With an arched eyebrow, Brian said, "I can't let you do that. I'll deal with your business and sort it out within a week. You must leave today."

"But why?!" Steven knew that Brian was perfectly capable of dealing away with all of Steven's problems even though he was just a young man. Although all the news about what had happened the other night had been blocked throughout the A city media, he knew well about Brian's family background. He could sort out any business out perfectly.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

"I don't have to answer your questions," glancing at the mortuary refrigerator, Brian said coldly, "I just want Mol to know that you and your family voluntarily left this country. Is that understood?

He looked at Brian, who also peered down at him with those beady black eyes. Opening his clenched palms, Steven asked, "I understand. I just want to know one thing before I leave."

"What is it?" Brian asked.

"You and Molly..."

"She's the true love of my life. And I'm gonna spend the rest of my life with her," Brian cut Steven off mid-sentence, "No one will hurt her again."

Brian's words surprised Steven. He knew that a man would do anything for his lover, just like how he would have done anything for his Sharon. But he hadn't expected that someone powerful like Brian Long would promise to spend the rest of his life with Molly.

"Since you have promised to love Molly forever, I can leave without worrying about Molly's life," Steven said with a bitter smile, "Although Molly is not my biological daughter, and though I used her to seek justice for my old army buddy, I still love her a lot."

"Do you think you would be allowed to stand and talk in front of me if I didn't think that you loved her?" Brian snorted with exasperation, "Just stay away from Mol for the rest of your life."

He shot Steven a cold look, turned around and left.

Stephen looked at Brian's back and the expression on his face reflected his complicated emotions. But in the end, his face remained enigmatic.

At the private hospital of Dragon Empire Group

The doctor had finished checking Molly's eyes. The initial checkup indicated that she was fine. So he prescribed some eye drops and asked her to use it till the test results of the optic nerves came out the next day.

When Molly walked out of the examination room, she looked around but didn't see Brian. She was bummed out and felt empty without him around.

With a small pained smile, Molly told herself, 'What are you expecting, Molly Xia? You have already decided to leave him. Why is your resolution staggering?'

Silently, she walked out of the eye clinic. Molly had no idea where Brian had gone. She wanted to take a short walk by herself, but she also thought about seeing Daniel. But she couldn't do either of those things right now because she was worried that Brian would come back and look for her. So she went up to the roof of the hospital to get some fresh air and take a break from all the chaos in her mind.

"Molly Xia!"

a familiar voice called her from behind. She reflexively turned and saw Becky. All she felt was a strong resentment.

Becky was accompanied by Yoyo. Yoyo looked at Molly, and then at Becky. She whispered something to Becky, and then left them alone.

"What are you doing here? What do you want?" Molly asked her.

Becky was standing in the shadows. Hearing Molly's words, she walked up to her with a smile on her lips, "So you have already had your eyes checked?"

Molly didn't answer her. To her, Becky's words always sounded sarcastic. Every time Becky talked to her, she felt uncomfortable. She hated that feeling.

"Did you get the result yet?" Becky asked.

"Why don't you just ask directly?" Molly said and took a step back, "There's no point beating around the bush. It's not like you to ask questions like this."

The smile on Becky's face disappeared. She looked at Molly with a smirk, "You must have really enjoyed it when Brian was on top of you the other day."

Molly's face immediately turned pale and her lips started trembling.

Becky didn't know what had happened between Brian and Molly the other day. But after seeing Molly's reaction, she kind of knew what must have happened. Becky clenched her fists, and said with a pretended ease, "It looks like Brian is really working hard on this," Becky paused for a moment and continued, "When the doctor finally transplants your retina into my eyes, everything Brian had done would be worth it."

"What do you mean?" Molly gasped.

Becky replied with a sneer, "You don't think they brought you to the hospital just to make sure that your eyes are alright, do you?"
