Love Began with the First Meeting novel Chapter 122

Earlier Molly had comforted herself, but now when the man stood at the door, she was so scared that she even forgot to breathe.

She just bit her lip and kept her eyes wide open.

In contrast, Shirley was unruffled.

From a young age, she'd had many horrifying experiences, especially during her time under the XK Intelligence Agency. Thus perhaps she wasn't afraid in the current misfortune.

"Little Molly, don't be afraid. I'm here with you," Shirley comforted in a soft voice, sensing Molly was very frightened.

Biting her lip, Molly turned her head to look at Shirley. As their eyes met, Shirley put on a smile for her. It calmed Molly down slightly. Lately, in her darkest hours, it seemed she always had heard someone say those same words.

But from different people the words gave her mixed feelings. Overbearing, mischievous, and insincere attitudes, she always read in those words. They made her feel unreal. But Shirley sounded genuine and her words were reassuring.

Shirley then flashed Molly a big smile. While fixing her eyes on the man at the door, she tried to untie the rope which bound their hands.

The strong, tall man turned on the light and walked into the room. Immediately, Molly and Shirley realized he was a foreigner. They stared, not knowing what to expect.

"It seems I am the target," Shirley muttered in confusion.

After she heard Shirley, Molly gnashed her teeth, held back her fear and bravely said,"Aunt Shirley, as you said just now, we are in this together. Come what may."

Shirley smiled, seeming not to care that she was in danger, even as the foreigner approached. And she was impressed by Molly's fortitude.

Liking a person was a simple thing. But what she felt towards Molly was more than that.

"Gary, our boss asked you to take her to meet him!" Someone outside the room said with a foreign accent. Shirley and Molly realized there was one more foreigner of medium build standing at the door.

Looking at the second man who was about to come in, Shirley calmly said in their language,"No matter who you are, you had better let go of us. Otherwise, your actions will have serious consequences!"

Gary sneered, casting her a cold glance as he thought about Shirley's recklessness. She was in danger and still dared to threaten them. He suddenly stretched out his hand and gripped Molly's arm to pull her up.

"Ah!"

Molly screamed in pain as she was pulled up. Gary noticed the rope, which was used to tie their hands together, had loosened.
