Love Began with the First Meeting novel Chapter 398

A terrible thought crossed Molly's mind.

She stared at Becky with her fatigued eyes dulled to a red color.

"What are you trying to say?" Molly questioned Becky, her voice shaking.

"What am I trying to say?" Becky snorted and stepped forward aggressively. Molly backed up a few steps in a futile attempt to avoid her, and reached out a hand to steady herself against the wall. "You still don't know what I'm trying to say?" She curled her lips and looked down at Molly as if she were better than her, above her, superior to her.

"No!" Molly shook her head in disbelief. 'She's lying! Don't believe her and just trust Brian. He wouldn't do that to me.' Molly talked herself into believing that Brian wouldn't hurt her, but she had a hard time believing herself. Why did Brian take her to the hospital to have her eyes checked?

A myriad of thoughts flooded her mind. She shook them off and said through gritted teeth, "Becky, I don't believe a word you've said."

After Molly said her piece, she turned around and made her way to the stairs. She was in such a rush that she hit Yoyo so hard she almost fell to the ground. Yoyo grabbed her by the arm to steady her.

"Miss Xia, are you all right?" Yoyo asked worriedly. Yoyo didn't know what Becky had said to Molly, but based on Molly's face, Becky must have said something really harsh and mean.

"I-I'm all right!" Molly stuttered back. She pulled her arm free and hurried downstairs. She was going to confront Brian about what Becky had just said. 'Brian wouldn't do this to me! Becky's just lying because she's jealous of me and Brain, ' Molly told herself.

Molly was frantically running around trying to look for Brian, but to no avail. She felt dejected because Brian had said he would wait for her outside the examination room and take her to Daniel, but now he was nowhere to be found.

Molly was suddenly struck with a sense of grief and loss that filled her eyes with tears. She stumbled to a bench and sat down, staring blankly at the floor. Not knowing what to do or where to go, she felt so lonely.

It was already afternoon by the time Brian arrived at the hospital. He had just barely gotten out of his car when his phone rang — Becky. He frowned upon seeing the name and picked it up.

"Brian," she said with an oddly enough calm voice, "where are you?"

"I just arrived at the hospital," he replied as he walked towards the entrance. He had never really gotten around to shaking off his feelings of guilt for Becky and he would do everything he could to make it up to her. "What can I do for you?" he asked.

"I'm on the rooftop and I want to see you now." She sounded so meek on the phone.

"You know, it's pretty cold outside. What are you doing there?" Brian asked, frowning.

"I wanted to feel the wind," Becky murmured, laughing softly. "Yoyo said it was snowing outside..."
