Love Began with the First Meeting novel Chapter 501

She tried so hard to finally be free from Brian but she, of all people, knew that Brian wouldn't give up just that easily. Even if he didn't really love her, he still wouldn't let anyone go near her with a ten-foot pole because he had too much pride for that. She wondered, 'Was it a mistake to keep Mark when I found out?'

Frustrated, she took several deep breaths and took her time as she collected her emotions. She continued her train of thought, 'Brian's already taken away so much from me and I'm done arguing whose fault it was but why won't he let me go? Because if he wants a son, he can easily get that from so many other women not to mention Becky. So why would he be interested in Mark? And why did he want to take Mark away from me so bad?'

Her eyes were starting to hurt so she closed her eyes for a few moments. When she opened them, her vision started to blur. After her eye operation, she had cried for all the things that were happening to her then. She was suffering from sequelae, she hadn't slept well in days, and her vision was only getting worse.

A car screeched to a halt a few steps away from her out of nowhere.

Molly's vision cleared as she cast a quick glance at the car. She saw a woman stepping out of the car - this sight made Molly freeze.

"Hey, I didn't expect to see you here," Becky greeted as she closed the door. A yellow chiffon skirt beautifully hung from her shoulders, its hemline dancing along the breeze. Her silky hair dropped just below her shoulders, beautiful and prancing. She was the image of elegance. Standing in the dim light of the street lamps, she looked like a fairy.

Molly was just in her plain, old T-shirt, cut-off denim shorts, and worn out sneakers, looking like a regular college student who was just passing by.

As soon as Molly snapped out of her trance, she turned around in an attempt to leave and ignore Becky. But before she could even take another step, Becky asked her, "What's up? Are you still scared of me?" Becky jeered at Molly, a mocking smile plastered on her face. "Since you came that way, I'm guessing you just came from Grand Night, right? Come to see your lovely son? No? Oh, how unfortunate!"

Molly tried to repress her temper as she continued to take more steps away from Becky.

"Ruby," Becky said meaningfully as that was Molly's name as far as the Yan family was concerned, "Dad has missed you. When are you coming to visit him?"

This was when Molly lost it. She swiveled to face Becky and stared her down, "I only have one dad! And it's definitely not Rory!"
