Love Began with the First Meeting novel Chapter 100

That spoke volumes. Edgar fixed his complicated gaze on Brian while he said those words. Obviously, it implied someone in particular.

Brian knew what he meant, so he responded quickly in a cold voice but still with a poker face, "Sharp and perceptive. No wonder you are the best in the Wolf SWAT Team."

What Brian said was also full of implication. Then putting his arms around Wing, Brian left the hall together with her.

Edgar stared at their retreating figure until Brian and Wing were out of sight. Then, he gazed at the piano on the stage with his sharp eyes while still wearing the polite smile on his face.

All of a sudden, Bill said in a firm voice, "Mr. Mayor, that woman means a lot to Mr. Long." Bill nodded several times to convince Edgar of that.

The look in Edgar's eyes seemed to become colder. He remarked while walking, "Explain clearly and get ready for the concert. Inform the Cultural Affairs Bureau, Tourist Bureau, and the Police Station of the meeting. The joint performance of Wing and Spark will be a spectacular attraction around the world. It means a lot to A City and I hope to enhance our prestige in the world through this concert."

"Yes, Mr. Mayor, " answered Bill simply with a lollipop in his mouth, and then followed Edgar's steps as both of them left the hall. All of a sudden, a man in working clothes came out from an obscure corner. The man looked at the glimmering entrance with two dark eyes and the corners of his mouth twisted wickedly.

"The sunset is infinitely splendid, yet night is coming!"

An abrupt and hoarse male voice echoed loudly and clearly in the air all of a sudden. Passers-by around Molly and Eric looked at them in surprise and stared at them strangely.

Molly felt so embarrassed. She contemptuously glanced at Eric, who was enjoying the beautiful sunset with open arms. Holding a warm instant coffee in one hand, she said in a disgusted voice, "Conceited idiot!"

Eric turned around and caught Molly twitching her mouth. With a smile of a crazy weirdo, he explained, "Aha, I did it just for the occasion!"

"As you said, should I say 'appointment after twilight?" Molly said ironically.

Hearing what Molly said, Eric ran to Molly right away, and then sat on the bench next to her. He put his arms at the back of the bench behind Molly and stared at her with loving eyes. Afterwards, he came on closer and said in an enchanting voice, "So, you want to have an appointment with me after twilight?" Molly answered by instinct, "Yeah?" She didn't realize what he actually meant, but feeling uncomfortable when Eric was too close to her, she just responded automatically.

A faint coffee taste mingled with a musky scent of a man struck Molly's nose. She turned her head away in a hurry to escape Eric's approach. Then, realizing what he had meant, she said in an even more disgusted voice matched with a disgusted look on her face, "Sorry, I didn't mean that."

Eric lifted his eyebrows and then appealed pathetically, "Come on, I had street food with you before."

"Yeah, I still remember that you stole my food after finishing yours, " said Molly with her lips curled like a cute kid.
