'Molly, if it was a mistake to meet you then I'd be stupid to learn from my mistakes.' Brian thought to himself.
Molly froze when Brian asked her to divorce Spark.
She glared at Brian, "Never!" she snarled.
"Never? Really?"
Brian murmured as he dropped his gaze. He looked up at Molly, one of his eyebrows raised. Coldness emitted from him as he scoffed, "I don't want my son to have a slut for a mother."
"Brian!" Molly growled, "Mark is my son and that's never going to change the same way I'm never coming back to you!"
She squirmed out of Brian's grip as soon as she finished talking. She was able to open the door with the intention of leaving when Brian suddenly grabbed her and pulled her back into the car. Brian pinned her down in her seat, his hands locked on her shoulders. She tried to get up only to be pushed back again and again.
Molly glared at Brian, her teeth grinding. Her eyes were bloodshot because she hadn't had a good night's sleep in so long yet they were filled with resentment and anger. She was just a simple woman who longed for nothing but stability and silence in her life. But Brian, this man, just wouldn't leave her alone. Even though she was starting to get a bit confused, she was very sure that she didn't want to get back together with him. She admitted to herself that she never would have the courage to confess to him again like she did that one winter night.
"Molly," Brian said coldly, "Let's just wait and see. You'll be back sooner than you think. Hmm. Or not."
Molly sneered at him, "Mr. All-Powerful, you have no power over me. You can't control me. You can't will my heart into doing as you wish. Now that my heart doesn't belong to you, I don't have a problem leaving you. And I'll just have to figure out a way to get away from you. So why on earth would you want me to come back?"
Brian felt his heart twist at Molly's words. With his face filled with disdain and his eyes fixed on Molly, he asked in a cold voice, "You really want to get away from me?"
"Yes," Molly replied without skipping a beat. She wasn't just throwing a tantrum - this was truly how she felt. She'd rather be alone than be with Brian.
"Why?" Brian asked before he could stop himself. They both froze instantly because Brian was just as surprised as Molly was at his bold question.
