Love Began with the First Meeting novel Chapter 258

"Could you hug me for a while?"

The words appeared on Molly's phone screen.

Brian squinted at the screen.

His black eyes were fixed on Molly's words. He didn't react. He just stood there, staring at the screen. When the screen finally turned off, he raised his head and gazed at Molly.

Molly looked like a pouting child, seeking love from her negligent parent. She noticed that Brian didn't make any move. She hesitantly took her mobile phone back, and lowered her eyes, deliberately hiding her frustration and disappointment. Then she turned around and set off towards the villa.

But her arm was pulled back by a strong hand and she was embraced from behind.

Brian held Molly in his arms quietly. He tightened his grip on her shoulders, as if he was trying to prevent her from escaping. "Did you go back home?"

his deep voice came from behind her. Brian already knew the answer to his question.

Molly didn't answer. She closed her eyes and turned around towards him. She pressed her cheek closer to Brian's chest and listened to his heartbeat, taking in his unique scent. She kept her arms around his waist and enjoyed the sense of security she only felt when she was with Brian.

Tony stood beside the car and watched the two lovers embrace under the light of the setting sun. The sight was pleasant, yet sad. He admired the love between Molly and Brian, and he hated that sad aura they were emanating. He wondered what it would be like when he was in love with a girl.

The young couple remained locked in the embrace. Brian remained silent and stared into space.

Tony's mind drifted to a conversation that he had witnessed between Brian and Vincent earlier that day. His mind was soon clouded by darkness.

"Mr. Brian Long, the situation seems to have gotten tricky." Vincent's impassive face appeared on the monitor during the video call. "A few past incidents might be involved in the political conflicts between Dragon Island and Four-Nine City."

There was a brief silence before Brian spoke,"Justin once spent his holiday on his twin brother's territory. As the Chief Commander of the C Army Group, he was engaged in some secret mission during the time. Dragon Island was at the very edge of its political power, so nobody noticed him there. However, unfortunately, he was exposed and set up by an intelligence agent from X Country. His mission failed and he was also drugged with some potent philter. People who were affected by that drug were said to have no control over their thoughts, or their body. He was easily misled and manipulated."

Vincent's face darkened after hearing what Brian had said. He felt sick to the stomach.
