Love Began with the First Meeting novel Chapter 322

After the driver dropped Becky off at the villa, she dismissed him.

Becky then bade Yoyo to ring the bell for her.

Lucy walked over to the gate and opened it.

"Miss Yan?" Lucy's mouth dropped in surprise. But she shook it off. Why was she here? If Becky were able to see, she would have known that Lucy was actually quite delighted to see her here. It showed in her eyes.

Becky didn't have to see to know who she was talking to. She was still quite familiar with John's family. She recognized Lucy's voice right away. "Hi Lucy, is Brian here?"

"Yeah, I believe Mr. Long is still around." Lucy welcomed Becky inside the gate. "He got home last night, and I haven't seen him leave yet." As they were talking, Lucy saw something about Becky that she hadn't noticed before. Becky seemed to be led by Yoyo, who guided her around the gate, ensuring she didn't bump into it. Lucy stared at Becky's eyes and asked in a very small and hesitant voice,"Your eyes...they..."

Becky just smiled gently and hid the sadness she felt every time someone brought it up. "Retinal infection. I'm blind, for now..." She trailed off, not knowing what else to say.

"How did it happen?" Lucy's forehead wrinkled, but she got no reply. She didn't press her for details. "Does Mr. Long know?"

Becky just nodded while she gently bit her lip. Suddenly, she paused, standing there, marshaling her courage. She couldn't help but ask Lucy the question that had been on her mind for a long time. "Lucy, who lives here? Is there someone else here?"

"What?" Lucy was confused at first. But she saw the look on Becky's face and her hesitance, and figured it out quickly. Lucy was sharp. "Yeah. I get it. There's a young lady living here now. She left, but now she's back, as of yesterday. Not my favorite person."

Becky's eyebrows furrowed. And the pain in her heart suddenly surfaced again. She took a deep breath and asked again,"Did Brian... agree to this?"

"Mr. Long took pity on her," Lucy glanced at Becky then quickly added,"To be honest, it's really annoying. I'm not a fan. She's the only woman other than you who's been here."

But these indignant words only made Becky feel more and more nervous about what was going on. She knew Brian well. He was a cold and distant man who didn't give a fig about anyone who wasn't close to him. So who was this woman to him? How did it happen?

Becky's lips trembled, but she continued walking. Yoyo, who was helping her, clearly felt the sadness radiating from Becky. Then Becky asked in a small voice. "What... what's her name?"

"Molly," Lucy answered with venom in her eyes and voice.
