Love Began with the First Meeting novel Chapter 539

"Spark..." Molly kept sobbing in Spark's arms. He had been there for her for all those four years even when she was feeling depressed all over again, even until she had gone into labor and until they found out that Mark couldn't speak, Spark had always stayed by her side. He never left her, always encouraging her and supporting her. She didn't love him but he held a very special place in her heart, one that couldn't be replaced. She just hoped that she didn't hurt him too much.

Spark held Molly tighter as if he could read her mind, bitter tears streaming down his face. He said firmly, "Don't blame yourself, Molly. I don't care if you left me or if you don't love me because that doesn't change the fact that you're the only love of my life. Please live your life as happily as you can. You should be happy, Mol. You deserve to be happy."

Spark broke into a smile, his eyes swollen. Soon after, tears started falling down his face again.

Eyes closed, Molly bit her lips. She had run out of words - this was too much for her.

Outside the hospital, Brian was still waiting. He was leaning against his car, hands in his pockets, legs crossed, and eyes down.

His crisp suit and fancy car only added to his appeal. Brian, the handsome and cold man that he was, was such a sight for sore eyes.

Everyone who had passed by Brian kept staring at him - whether it was medial staff, visitors, or even patients themselves. They were curious about what such an attractive man was doing in the hospital. He was too good-looking to not be talked about.

The crowd were already wondering why he had looked so familiar. It occurred to them that he was the man who held the press conference earlier that afternoon.

"Wow, that's Brian Long, right?"

"Yes, I think so. He looks so good," A woman said. Then as she thought back to the press conference, she speculated, "If Brian is here, then does that mean Spark really is in this hospital?"

"But if Spark was admitted here then how come I didn't see his name anywhere? Or even heard about it?"

"But if Spark's not here then what's Brian doing here?"

The crowd started buzzing. But knowing who Brian was and knowing what kind of person he was, they had to keep their mouths hushed. They couldn't discuss it as publicly or as loudly as they would like to. As they continued to look at Brian, they realized how mixed their feelings were toward him.

Brian didn't dignify their stares and gossip by noticing them. He never really was the type of person concerning over how others think of him.

He took a cigarette out, put it between his lips, and lit it. He took a long puff before removing the cigarette. He moved so smoothly and gracefully that it showed how used he was to being alone.

Brian only smoked when felt dispirited. During these days, he only smoked when he really needed to. Molly had been inside for over an hour now. As time continued to pass by, his anxiety grew along with it. Now, he was having trouble breathing.

He rarely regretted anything but now it seemed like he was regretting sending Molly in there.

Today was Mark's first day at school and he didn't keep his promise of picking him up after school. Instead, he drove Molly to meet with Spark. The man she was married to.

This enraged Brian. He took a couple more puffs, brows furrowed together.

There was nothing he could not get or not be able to do. But something about this moment made him feel helpless and thus, agitated. His stomach was turning at the idea of Molly disliking him even more after talking to Spark. But mostly, it was his fault - he never should have driven Molly here.

'Brian, this is what you get for being so weak for her. You're always giving in to what she wants. Karma's a bitch, huh. Five years ago, you let her down and broke her heart. Now it's her turn to do the same to you, '

Brian thought anxiously in his mind. His face, though, remained as steely as it always was. He tossed the cigarette away and put a foot on it to put it out. He started to stare at the door impatiently but of course, Molly still hadn't shown up.
