Love Began with the First Meeting novel Chapter 200

"Go and check whether Mr. Yan has come to A City," Edgar ordered Bill tersely. He had no doubt that it was him even though he just saw him briefly. His gut instinct confirmed what he saw with his own eyes.

Bill was dumbfounded that he asked disbelievingly. "Mr. Justin Yan? Did I hear you right?"

He got inside the car without saying a word, merely glancing at Bill. His brows furrowed as he got lost in his own thoughts.

Bill could feel the tension coming from Edgar in waves. He hurriedly got into the driver's seat and looked at the rear view mirror, waiting for Edgar's instructions. Edgar then ordered to start the car. Bill's thoughts roamed, 'Why would Justin come to A City out of the blue? Why was there no official news about his visit?'

Both were quiet on the way back to the Parliament House. Each immersed in their own thoughts. The minute they arrived, Bill set about doing the investigation. He was surprised, 'Even in private, the vice president's whereabouts always make it on the news.'

Looking out of the window in his room, the changing landscape of A City before him, Edgar frowned at the train of his thoughts, 'Now the situation has become more complicated. If Justin also got involved, I'm afraid that things will be out of my control.'

His mobile phone ringing cut through his pensive thoughts. He saw the name flashed on the screen and then answered brusquely," What's up?"

His voice was cold and indifferent. The person at the other end of the line responded with silence. Obviously offended at the tone of his voice.

"I'm busy." His tone implied that if there was nothing important just hang up.

"Edgar, do you mean if I have nothing important to say, you have no time to talk to me?"

Jenifer's cold voice was heavy with sarcasm, obviously piqued by the way Edgar was treating her. "Is Molly the only one you care about in this world? Except for her, you don't need other people to care for you?"

"Yes,"

Edgar answered coldly.

Jenifer's temper flared up and her pretty face crumpled at his reply. "Then it's a pity that she never called you even though you have given her your phone number.

Too bad, you are waiting for her call almost every single day, but she never does!" Jenifer said with venom in her voice.

Too angry to say a word, Edgar fumed silently and hang up the phone. He just couldn't take Jenifer's vitriolic remarks about Molly.

Meanwhile, Jenifer seethed with anger as Edgar abruptly cut her call. She was literally about to explode. Venting her anger at the phone clutched tightly in her hand, she threw it with full force in the direction of the flat screen TV. It made a cracking sound upon impact. The broken screen was enough proof that Jenifer was fast losing her patience with Edgar.
