Love Began with the First Meeting novel Chapter 290

When Becky told Eric that she wanted to go there, he flat out said no. But today, Eric went there for this woman. To say that Becky was surprised was an understatement.

Becky really didn't want to do this but she didn't tell Cindy. When she hung up the phone, she sat at the sofa silently thinking about what Cindy was making her do and every small action of Brian today.

Brian was her man and hers alone. No one could get in between them and no one could take him away from her!

Becky squinted her eyes. She was suddenly feeling all the anger. She picked up the phone that Jason gave her before he left and put it on channel one. As she was about to speak, a voice came.

"Manager He, one of our waiters is sick. We need someone to take his shift but all of the staff is busy. Could you cancel Molly's noon break so she can cover a shift?"

"You can decide on your own. Go ahead. I have no idea what Brian is thinking so I'm giving you the go signal to decide on your own."

"Okay, I understand."

The voices were gone. Becky opened her mouth and was ready to say something, but she suddenly decided against it in the last minute. She thought back of the conversation she heard just now...

The waiter would never have called Jason like that if the situation wasn't urgent. But one waiter not making it to his shift didn't sound urgent at all. This didn't make sense. Why did he have to call Jason?

Becky tilted her head. She was confused. After a while, she realized something. She mumbled to herself. "Molly ?! Could it be her? Could it be the same Molly?"

But nobody was here to answer her question. She was gripping the phone tighter and tighter until she decided to turn it off as it wasn't helping her anxiety at all. What if this Molly was the same Molly that Eric had mentioned? If she was, then she would be around Brian all the time, right?

No! She wouldn't allow this! Not on her watch! She wouldn't let some random woman take Brian away from her! That was definitely not happening!

The night was growing deeper and deeper - not a single yellow star could be sighted. There was only the solitary moon hiding behind the clouds.

Tony was the one driving while Brian sat in the backseat, looking out the window. His face was hard, devoid of any emotion. No one could tell what ran through that little thick head of his.

Suddenly, there was a buzz. Brian silently withdrew his gaze from the window, took his phone out and answered the call.

"Emperor, the man you told me about is here with me. Elias reported to him, quite excitedly. "I made him drink the medicine that I developed. It'll take half a day for something to show up."
