Love Began with the First Meeting novel Chapter 32

Aware of Brian's reaction when it came to Becky, Wing changed the topic and chatted on with Brian for a few more minutes before hanging up.

As the call ended, Brian put the phone back in his pocket and turned slightly towards Molly. She was staring blankly at him, with furrowed brows, and lips moving slightly. She seemed to have been immersed in her own thoughts.

Somehow, her expressions made Brian displeased and his eyes became deeper and sharper.

The tension in the air filled the entire car, and Molly suddenly came back to her senses as the atmosphere became heavier still. Right about that time, she met Brian's deep eyes, and her heart trembled in fear. This was so awkward!

"What...what's up?" she enquired cautiously. In her mind, she had witnessed something unreal. That a man with an aura as cold as Brian could possibly treat someone gently? Was it real?

However, he ignored Molly's question and moved his eyes back on the stock market indices with his eyes devoid of any emotion.

Hearing no response from the man sitting beside her, Molly sat upright again, but sneakily scanned and observed him from time to time. It was often said that women were highly volatile. But right now, Molly felt this man was changing his face even faster than a regular woman.

She was sure that Brian either had schizophrenia or a split personality!

The thought seemed to amuse her and she couldn't help but grin.

However, her heart froze the next second when she received a sharp stare from Brian.

She clenched her teeth discreetly in fear. Brian's eyes seemed to be like X-rays. They could see right through her. It even seemed like he could read her mind somehow!

"Mr. Long. We are here!" Tony's peaceful voice resounded in the car, breaking the awkward silence and tension. Looking in the rearview mirror, he looked at the two people in the backseat and let out a sigh.

"I might have schizophrenic illness... and a split personality too!" Brian spoke calmly as he looked towards Molly. Then switching his laptop off, he got out of the car.

Molly's mouth was left hanging open in shock! She kept sitting in the car while Brian got out and blinked her eyes. A terrible feeling was setting in her heart as she realized that Brian could read her mind; thoroughly and clearly!

Tony opened the back door and a gust of cold wind blew in. Then she heard his peaceful voice again," Miss Xia, please come out of the car now."

It was unclear whether she was shivering from lack of warmth in the wind, or the coldness in Brian's words. Biting her lower lip, she got out of the car. A strong smell of disinfectant as she followed Brian finally told her she was in a hospital. She was confused.
