Love Began with the First Meeting novel Chapter 544

A strange feeling struck Molly's heart as she watched Brian and Mark's bond. She remembered the old days again. 'This is all so new and amazing to me because the four years that Mark spent with Spark couldn't even compare to the bond that Mark has with Brian now - and all this from just barely a month of getting to know each other, ' Molly thought to herself.

"Don't feel like eating?"

Brian asked in a deep tone. Molly snapped out of her trance and looked up to Brian who was gazing at her. Molly's face flushed, she was embarrassed, "No, no," she said hastily.

"Good," Brian said as he held out his hand to replace her food with his own as if nothing unnerving or new was happening between them. He just started enjoying her food nonchalantly.

Molly tilted her head down to look at her plate of food. She was surprised to find that Brian had cut and sliced the food into tiny bite-sized pieces. She suddenly turned red again - she was moved by this, overwhelmed with appreciation. Molly raised her head and looked at Brian who happened to be reaching out to wipe off Mark's mouth that had been littered with morsels of food. She felt her heart glowing at the sight.

How beautiful this sight was! She couldn't help but feel strong affection towards Brian. She was still supposed to be mad at him over what he had just said about Spark and if it wasn't for Mark, she would have outright gotten mad at him. But as she watched Brian show nothing but love and care for Mark, she just felt all soft and tender inside. It was as if she had been dreaming of this moment to come and she just wished she could stop time and live in this moment forever.

Lost in her own reverie, Molly was silent the whole time, except only now and then she would raise her head and respond to Mark's questions in short and brief answer. She sat motionlessly there, listening to the father and son's random talk. Though most of the time, it was Mark who was leading the conversation, it looked wonderingly sweet and warm in her heart.

Since it was Mark's first day of school, he was naturally excited to share stories. Ever since he had started speaking, he seemed to be fascinated with being able to talk to others without using his hands and expressing his thoughts. Especially since he had such an exciting day, he had so many things to share. To Molly, it seemed that he had changed. He changed into a much brighter boy than he ever was and this change only happened when Brian came into his life. He was the reason why Mark had changed into this lively boy.

As Molly delved into her thoughts, her eyes rested on Brian. Her eyes twinkled with gratitude and fascination. His face was so lovely to look at - he was so handsome in his crisp suit and his deep eyes. He was the vision of perfection. She was almost overwhelmed.

She was grateful to be blessed with such a handsome husband and a sweet son. Everything would be picturesquely perfect if it weren't for their difficult past. Girls would surely be all over Brian and she would be the girl that caught his attention.

"Look! Isn't that Brian and Molly?" They were suddenly interrupted by a loud voice.

Brian and Molly instinctively turned to the voice.

It was Jennifer with Edgar by his side - her hand was looped around his arm and they were walking towards their table.

As they walked towards the table, Jennifer's eyes registered surprise as if she was delighted to see them having dinner together as a family. "Brian, Molly, what a coincidence! It's a surprise to see you here," she cried vibrantly with a smile painted on her face.

Brian remained silent and turned to Edgar who's been staring at Molly since they arrived. This infuriated Brian that his eyes had started to dim. "Mayor Gu, it's been a while. Good to see you again," he said blankly, his face expressionless.
