Love Began with the First Meeting novel Chapter 150

He looked at Molly guiltily, but he believed that he had no choice but to do what he had to do, even though she might misunderstand or even dislike him.

Steven tried his best to refrain from moving his eyes away. He looked miserably at the daughter whom he should have protected, but who had to pretend to be strong for their sake. His heart felt like it was being pricked by a million needles. It hurt so much that he was suffocated.

Shirley sighed deeply. Seeing how determined Molly was, she felt very sorry for her. She already knew how this was going to end.

Shane finished shuffling quickly and put the cards on the table. As his thumb slid over them, the cards were lined up in an extremely trim order.

"Casino War!" Molly tried hard to keep calm as she said that.

Brian frowned slightly, but did not object.

Molly took a deep breath before she walked to the cards. Then she looked at them on the table, closed her eyes for a second and opened them again. She was so nervous that she gulped. Her hand trembled and hesitated while sliding over the cards. Finally, holding her breath, she picked up a card and turned it over.

Ace of hearts!

Molly's eyes brightened, while her heart, which was a moment ago ready to burst out of her mouth, leaped in joy. She tried hard not to look excited and then she said to Brian,"It's your turn."

After a quick glance at the card chosen by Molly, Brian walked forward to the rest of the cards. He contemplated for a while, picked one of them seemingly at random and turned it over with his slender fingers to show it to Molly, as he said indifferently,"I win."

Seeing the Ace of spades in Brian's hand, Molly was quickly furious and yelled,"You cheat!"

Brian smiled cunningly and everybody's attention was on him. He said arrogantly,"Molly, I have seventy-eight casinos all over the world. How could I manage them all if I didn't have at least this much ability?"

Molly's face fell immediately. Her heart could not handle such back to back attacks. She staggered back in panic. What a terrifying man! It seemed like there was nothing he couldn't do, even though he was only four or five years older than her.

Brian's soft fingers gently slid over Molly's pale face, to which he had taken a liking recently. He wanted to feel the air around Molly which somehow seemed different from the others. It was supposed to be comfortable, but when his fingers touched her face, he became influenced by her emotions and by her sadness.

And at that moment, he was very unhappy.

It was he who had set the trap for Steven, but he had not expected Shirley to bring Molly there. So he had to change his plan as soon as they had entered the scene. He wanted Molly to be desperate. However, now that she was, he was extremely unhappy to see her pale face. Why?

Molly laughed at her situation. Once again it was Brian's win. She asked him with poison in her voice,"You have destroyed my hope once again and I have nothing left. Are you happy now? Are you satisfied?"
