Molly was frightened as if she was standing on the edge of an abyss…
... ...
Brian heard Molly frantically yelling," You're totally insane!"
'Am I insane?' Brian asked himself inside.
He then revealed a meaningful smile on his face and thought, 'Ever since I took over the XK, despite the objection of my father, I have been leading a cruel and bloody life.. What happened tonight is nothing unusual.'
Brian then sneered when he saw that there was only a mastiff with green eyes left in the TV.
Then he thought, 'David drugged Molly and set her up. But he shouldn't have let her into my room... It was a fatal mistake for a man in the underworld to let that happen. He deserves to die!'
Brian picked up the cup, took a sip of tea that had been cooled, and then gazed meaningfully at the TV. On the screen, the mastiff was seen lazily squatting on the ground while looking angrily at the mutilated man. It appeared to be distressed and enraged because it was not allowed to kill David.
Brian grabbed the remote control and turned off the TV without showing any emotion on his face. Then he turned the disk player on which played soft piano music...
Meanwhile, Molly was vomiting into a flower bed outside the house. Nothing was coming out from her mouth because she didn't eat anything the whole day. She groaned in pain and her face twisted because of her convulsive stomach.
While the cold night wind was blowing, she trembled, and her body shivered uncontrollably. She looked pale and vulnerable and her eyes were red as she couldn't hold her tears any longer.
"No, no, no..." cried Molly.
She squatted on the ground in spite of her convulsive stomach. Traumatized by what she had seen, Molly buried her face between her knees and started to cry... David's heartrending cries and the last bloody image in the video kept haunting her and she couldn't help but tremble in fear.
The cold night wind and her helpless sob echoed in the night.
One couldn't tell whether she trembled because of fear or because of the cold wind outside... Perhaps it was because of the fear which ravaged inside her, and not the cold weather. She was terribly tormented and mortified as the brutal scenes went playing like a loop in her mind.
