Love Began with the First Meeting novel Chapter 278

Brian sat there, unmoving.

He just stared with his deep eyes at Molly who was standing at the door.

His eyes went darker still, as if you'd get lost if you looked into them. He'd only gone one day without her. But why did it feel like a long time? He missed her a lot.

Things got oddly silent. Brian didn't say a word while Molly stood at the door. Jason just observed them, showing no emotion at all, and he chose to stay silent as well. When the man they caught tried to make a fuss, a nod to the guard signaled him to cover his mouth.

The man whined through the guard's hand, which brought Brian and Molly back to reality. Molly turned to look at the man and frowned. She walked over to him slowly in confusion. Then she stopped in front of him, looked at his torn clothing, then turned to Brian, asking him what happened with her expression.

Most of the people here worked in the VIP rooms upstairs. Apart from the foreman of the first floor lobby, nearly everyone knew about Molly and Brian. They weren't surprised to see Molly here. However, the foreman was apparently a bit shocked.

He looked at Brian who sat there casually and lazily the whole time, and then took a puzzled look at Molly. That man the guard was holding had been beaten heavily. The foreman thought it a normal reaction. Mr. Brian Long never allowed anyone to act up in his casino, so he might have had to be subdued when he resisted. But now he thought of another reason this man was detained. This might be punishment, considering Molly was here too. Did this guy do something to Molly?

Brian's handsome and distant face betrayed no emotion. The owner raised his eyes to look at Molly. He missed her a bit when he saw her at first. But somehow he missed her worse when she was right here in front of him. He really wanted to hold her tightly in his arms when he thought of her being bullied last night! She was so helpless and just stood there and took it.

Molly waited patiently for an explanation from Brian. However, she waited awhile and no one spoke. Obviously, Brian wasn't going to say a word. Molly couldn't take it anymore and looked around her. Everyone kept their eyes on her, as if they were watching a drama. That really started to grate on her nerves.

She brushed her hair away from her face with her hand and took out her phone. She typed something and showed it to Brian,"What can I do for you, Mr. Brian Long?"

Brian's distant face turned even darker immediately when he saw the words she wrote. His eagle-like eyes narrowed a bit and a cold light flashed through his deep dark gaze. He lifted his gaze from the phone slowly and looked straight into Molly's eyes as if he were trying to see through her soul!

Mr. Brian Long? What a distant address!

She did a really good job trying to stay away from him, especially when she'd only been gone for a day.

Yes... She told him they'd be strangers when they met up later. Good! Very good! She made it.
