Love Began with the First Meeting novel Chapter 44

"You.....what are you doing!" Molly shouted in outrage at Brian as she closed her lips tightly. Whatever was happening was beyond her expectations and she had no spontaneous idea about how to react.

"Molly, is this the way to behave with me? Do you know how much I've taken care of you these two days? This is not the right behavior for the lamb I require."Clearly, he wasn't angry with her reaction at all. Instead, his tone indicated dalliance and happiness.

He was looking at her deeply, as if he wanted to discover why she was so interesting and attractive. Molly was also looking at him, and discovered that there was a slight smile on his attractive face in spite of the coldness he pretended to have.

She looked at him, surveying him up and down, trying to figure out what he was thinking. But no matter how hard she tried, the mystery was incomprehensible to her. Controlling her temper, she asked directly," Are you mental or something? Do you have some disease or disorder like split personality?"

The question arose because the man had showed a highly volatile nature in just a few days. Sometimes he would be violent and cruel, and sometimes gentle and tender. It was like... you could never truly comprehend this man or understand his character. The mystery was, sometimes he acted like a desert whose boundaries could not be seen, and sometimes, like a vast ocean with all those underwater secrets and undercurrents one could not observe.

"What do you think?" The question itself brought another one on her.

To Brian, making fun of Molly was an interesting pastime, and gave him a lot of pleasure.He had been a bit upset and angry just now due to some other matters. But Molly's question had made him laugh under the table and he felt much better. The annoying matters from a few minutes ago now felt like a piece of cake.

Molly looked at him cautiously, thinking twice, thrice, or many times before saying," How about you giving me a small hint next time when you are in a bad mood? So I can behave properly."

Sneering on her request, Brian asked curiously," And what would you do after such a hint?"

Although his words were peaceful, Molly sensed that if she didn't give the right reply, he was sure to get enraged and she had to bear the consequences.

"In the beginning, we met by accident. But now, I want to get along with you for as long as I am here. Anyway, you have helped me a lot and I appreciate that. The world is usually unfair, but I think we need to think fairly in this case. Since you've helped me, I should pay you back with what you want."

She had only planned on saying something nice to butter him up but when she opened her mouth, all her emotions and thoughts flowed freely from the heart. Leaning against the backrest, she closed her eyes to prevent her tears from bursting out. Her face was pale and helpless as she continued," Brian Long, I don't know how powerful or omnipotent you are. I am just an ordinary low-life girl, who can barely survive and has a hard life. I could never pursue what I desired or wanted."

He stared at her in silence. There was a mixed feeling arising in his heart, as he finally saw her genuine thoughts, which were filled with fear.
