Love Began with the First Meeting novel Chapter 1076

"I have always thought that you are Brian's right hand. Since when have you become Molly's slave?" With a put-down tone on her voice, Cora jeered while darting a look at Vincent with her disdainful glance.

To her surprise, he didn't seem to be angered by her words. He just shrugged and casually replied, "It doesn't matter who my master is. What's important for me is, I enjoy life to the fullest. No matter what I do, as long as I feel happy about it, then I will do it. Don't you agree? Miss Ke?" Cora's face turned dark. He seemed to find joy in that and put up a meaningful smile without even the slightest expression of annoyance on his face. Then he continued, "Oh sorry, I almost forgot, that you are not happy with your life. Perhaps, whatever you do, nothing can make you feel happy at all."

The irony in Vincent's words immediately lit up her anger. Minutes later she was so into him because of his outlook in life, and then all of a sudden he looked like a bitter curd to her, so annoying both in sight and in taste. Not wanting to elicit a misunderstanding, she didn't argue back. After glaring at the mischievous man, she diverted her eyes to Brian, who was standing near his car, at some distance away from her. Looking at him from a distance, she knew that he was such a cold-blooded person by nature, but she didn't know that he could be so cold-blooded to her of all persons. He even treated her so indifferently, completely disregarding the close relationship between their fathers.

"Stop looking at Mr. Brian Long." Nudging at her side, Vincent reminded her, "In this world, no one could make him change his mind, except for the women in his family and his beloved wife Mrs. Molly Long. But you…" Looking at Cora from head to foot with a snarl, he shook his head. "You can't!" He paused for a brief moment and slowly let out a sigh. "Actually, I have a piece of advice for you. After you go back, never appear in front of Mrs. Molly Long again. I can assure you that Mr. Brian Long is not going to look for you."

More disdained at him this time, Cora just sneered at him trying hard to hold her grudge towards him lest she might punch him in the face if he kept on insulting her.

That put Vincent in a conundrum. 'I don't get her. What kind of creature woman is? I made it so clear to her, why wouldn't she listen to me. If not for the time we worked in the XK Intelligence Agency together, I wouldn't have been so kind to her. But she doesn't seem to appreciate, ' Vincent thought.

"I have told you everything." His voice was filled with helplessness. "I don't want to do this, but I have no choice." No sooner had he finished his sentence than he stepped back for a couple of steps. Then he lifted his chin a little as a signal to the men in black just behind them. The men in return got the cue and moved towards Cora.

Seconds later, the commotion began. In the corner of his eye from afar, Brian saw how the men attacked Cora together. Actually, Cora wasn't really a skilled fighter. Moreover, she had rested for so long and her skills were a bit rusty by now. Even though she had gone through some training in the past, she still couldn't match up with the people from XK, not to mention she had to fight against five people on her own.

In just a few seconds, Cora was kicked at the abdomen by one of the men. Then her body was thrown backward. She lost her balance and grasped for some air as she took the painful blow. Holding her abdomen, she scorned in pain as she struggled to straighten up.

"Well, well…" Looking down at her, Vincent found Cora too pitiful, being beaten like that. He couldn't help but curse the man who had kicked her in his heart silently—how could he be so brutal to such beauty? Of course, the most he could do was curse inwardly. Deep inside he had no sympathy for Cora, not even the slightest affection towards her. Living the life he had, he had learned that in this world, there was no such thing as sympathy. There was no room for sympathetic, weak and vulnerable men. Only the strongest, the fittest and the wisest would survive.
