Love Began with the First Meeting novel Chapter 255

Molly looked at the message on her mobile phone.

She stayed silent for a moment, and then she seemed to have remembered something important.

She hurriedly replied,"Dad, what happened?"

Steven's reply came back quickly,"Once you come back, you will know."

Molly looked at those simple words. There was an ominous premonition in her heart. Regardless of the sadness she was going through, she wanted to run upstairs. She raised her head and saw Eric looking at her doubtfully. She opened her mouth slightly and then lowered her head to type on her mobile phone. She showed it to him. "I have something important to do. I need to go out for a while."

"Where do you want to go?" asked Eric. He noticed that Molly was a little nervous. He asked,"Shall I take you to the place you want to go?"

Molly shook her head and hurriedly typed,"I want to go home. It would be inconvenient if you followed me!"

Eric gazed at Molly. But Molly had no time to wonder about Eric's thoughts. She quickly ran upstairs and changed her clothes. Then she ran back downstairs with her backpack. When she passed Eric, she slightly pressed her lips together, but did not say anything.

Eric did not move at first. He just looked at Molly who was running out of the house. The next second, he followed her out and said to her,"Little Molly, it will take a long time for you to walk down the mountain. How about I drive you downtown?"

Molly stopped in her tracks and thought for a while. She needed at least half an hour to reach the bottom of the mountain even if she ran there. And then she still needed another half an hour to take a bus and go home. So it might take more than an hour to reach home. Weighing her options, Molly nodded and followed Eric to his car.

Along the way, they kept quiet as Molly could not speak and Eric did not say anything because of what had happened at the villa. He quietly drove the car and dropped Molly at the bus station where she could get a bus that would take her home.

"Do you really not need me to drive you home?" Eric asked again before Molly got out of the car.

Molly shook her head indicating that she did not need him to take her back home. Her hand was on the door handle, but she did not open the door yet. She thought for two seconds and took out her phone, typing a few words for Eric. "Thank you, Eric. I need to move forward alone in the future, no matter what. So today, I don't need you to go with me. I can deal with it myself. You and Brian will always be in my memories. No matter where I end up in the future, I will not forget you, my evil friend."

Eric looked at the words on the phone. His eyes sunk. He turned his eyes to look at Molly. Molly slightly pressed her lips together and then got out of the car. The bus arrived just in time. Molly got on the bus without turning around to look at Eric.
