Love Began with the First Meeting novel Chapter 190

Brian looked keenly into Molly with his deep and attractive eyes as she sat there, with brows knitted. She was not happy at his statement that she was his girl. He somehow liked to see her sulk. He felt that it made her look lovely and amusing. Watching Molly narrow her eyes lightly and staring at him in ire, his eyes glistened in a wonderful, cunning smile. All of a sudden, he lunged forward and grabbed her in the arm, pulled her closer and kissed her fervently on her lips. Molly, completely stunned by the sudden kiss, was momentarily unable to move, then instinctively tried to scream out. However, he did not give her any chance. The second she opened her mouth, his lips caught hers and he devoured them, blocking any sound and savoring her mouth until he was satisfied and let go.

The kiss lasted long and was intense. Molly gasped slightly for a moment. Her face blushed all the way to her neck as an electric feeling rushed all over her body. Though she felt utterly abashed, she stared fiercely at Brian.

Brian paid no heed at her ire. He just got up from the bed and put on his suit. "I will be busy all day long. You don't have to wait for me for lunch. But I will come back and have dinner with you." and without another word, he walked out of the room and was gone.

It was not until the door closed behind him that Molly came out of her trance. She grumbled unwillingly and in a mild fit of rage, she buried her face into the pillow, furious at Brian's ignorance of her feeling. Then she turned over and got off from the bed. She was going to wash when her phone rang. It was a text from Aunt Shirley...

'Little Molly, no matter how difficult the road ahead might be, you must always believe that there is a beautiful twilight gleaming and waiting for you, guiding you to a happy, wonderful life!' Reading the text, Molly's heart felt warm and fuzzy with gratitude. A flash of warm light flickered in her eyes. She was happy and grateful.

It was a pure gleam of gratitude. She felt very lucky to have someone who cared so much about her and was concerned about her. She closed her eyes as she smiled softly, warmly...

'Thanks Aunt Shirley, I will. No matter how difficult the road may be... Nothing could stop me. Where there is a will, there is a way. Just like you said, there will always be different kinds of scenery waiting for me, guiding for me to a brighter life. And I believe I will get to it when the right time comes...' Holding the phone close to her heart, Molly was lost in her own thoughts. Her big, bright eyes glistened with determination. Her whole heart and mind lapsed in the yearning of the bright future.

It was the day Richie and Shirley departed for South Africa. A luxury private jet was waiting for them on the tarmac. After saying farewell to the others, Shirley climbed slowly up the boarding ladder. As she reached the top of the steps, she stopped and turned around. She could see the row upon row of high-rise buildings of A city, with their shiny glass walls, glistening in the sunlight, not far off in the distance. She didn't know why, but she had an odd feeling. She felt something was amiss, as if something bad was going to happen...

Noticing her concerns, Richie reached out and held her hand. There was no special emotion on his face. He had the same deep and esoteric eyes as Brian. Where else would Brian get it from? He knew what Shirley was holding her thoughts to. He also knew that there was no way they could turn back. "Go on!" he tried to speak over the sound of the plane engine as well as the noise came from other planes landing and taking off at the adjacent runways.
