Love Began with the First Meeting novel Chapter 1071

"Who says that I'm not part of this Casino?" Wearing a helpless look on her face, Molly stepped out. Gazing at the woman, she slowly uttered, "Miss, the one forbidden thing in gambling. Is to deny the result!"

The harsh words from Molly made the woman's face change colors. She bit her lower lip, as if trying to infuse herself with some courage, and raised her head. "My—my grievance is with him, not you," she stuttered.

Molly sighed and shook her head. Turning around, she said to Shane, "I'll leave her to you. Don't waste too much time on her. Your time can be better spent doing other things." She then gave Shane a friendly wink. "I'm going upstairs now."

Grinning, Shane nodded to show his acknowledgment. Before Molly walked towards the lift, she glanced at the woman once again.

It wasn't really necessary for her to confront that woman. Surely Shane knew the number on the dice. However, Molly hung back observing the woman for quite a while, and she could tell that the woman didn't seem to want to cause any trouble here at all. Nevertheless, Molly couldn't figure out why the woman was taking a stand.

Neither could Shane. Either way, he had his job to do and responsibility to keep order. Even though the woman wasn't trying to create a disturbance here, he still had to think of a way to block her from entering Grand Night Casino. The reason why Molly intervened was to make the process seem more natural. Sometimes, things had two sides and even though she understood what kind of business Brian was engaged in, she couldn't be as cold-hearted as he was.

A 'ding' sounded signaling that the lift had reached the top floor.

Molly walked out of the lift and went to the master control room. To her surprise, she didn't see Brian there.

She scanned the security screens in the room and frowned when she couldn't see Brian on any of the screens. "Where is he?" she murmured.

Molly took out her phone and dialed his number. A few seconds later, he picked up. "Bri, you're not in Grand Night Casino?" "No,"

Brian gently replied with a slight smile. "I have something urgent to deal with. Just wait for me there. I'll be there in half an hour."

"Okay." Molly nodded and hung up. However, when she did, she felt a sense of apprehension. It slowly rose like a hand and began to grip tightly around her heart.

Standing in front of his car, Brian slid his hand into his pocket. He was in a remote area of A City but close to L City. There was a vast piece of land between the two cities. Brian leaned casually against his car with his eyes fixed on the land in front of him. If it wasn't for the dim yellow glow that the old street lights emanated in some areas, nothing could be seen in the dark of the night.

After several minutes some car lights could be seen heading his way from the L City direction. Shortly after two dark vehicles parked near him.
