Love Began with the First Meeting novel Chapter 620

I am not strong. I always knew that. But despite recognizing that I was weak, particularly around Brian, there were times when I had to act tougher than I really was.

"Brian!" Molly yelled hysterically, shoving him away but to no avail. Her eyes were filled with anguish. Several thoughts crossed her mind all at once. 'I can't believe this. Why did I go back to him?' She thought furiously to herself.

Eventually, Molly stopped resisting his strong grip. Brian watched her carefully as she trembled. She seemed to be on the verge of a breakdown and the sight of it crushed him.

They remained still for a while. Molly looked up at the face which had been carved in her memory and grew short of breath.

Then she blinked and averted her eyes. She was worried that the sight of him would make it difficult to suppress her emotions and burst into tears. Molly hated being a coward around him.

Brian released her hands. His eyes were drawn to her slender body as she curled up on the bed in defeat. Her hair, which had been tied in a ponytail, was now a mess, making her look rather disheveled.

"Molly," Brian called. While Brian's tone may have been cold as usual, deep inside, his heart was shattering.

But Molly didn't respond.

Brian looked at her with a frown.

He raised a hand and grabbed her by the chin, forcing her to look at him. A pale, tear-stained face with bloodshot eyes greeted him. Molly seemed dispirited, like she was somewhere else despite being physically present.

Seeing her like this pierced his heart.

Fear of losing her got the better of him. Before he knew it, he placed his lips firmly against hers. The soft feeling of her sweet tender lips calmed his nerves yet it didn't help relieve his heartache.Not even the kiss could make his worries go away. He was scared to death that she would leave him again, leave him all alone before he could do anything to stop her.

The kiss, however, didn't affect Molly at all. Wearing a passive look, she offered no response. Brian gazed deeply into her eyes which were only inches away from his, but appeared to be terribly distant at the same time. Her cold and indifferent eyes were shutting him out. He was quite annoyed by it. Subconsciously, he gripped her chin tighter, hoping it would elicit any kind of response from her. Even if it were just to reject him. But even with his efforts, Molly didn't give him the satisfaction. She remained emotionless.

He turned frantic and felt at a loss. Her detachment drove him to kiss her more passionately. The kiss was so crazy, so intense, that it seemed like he were about to devour her.

Had this happened in the past, Molly would have definitely pushed him away due to her hedgehog-like personality. She was never a fan of being deeply smothered. But this time, it was different. Instead of pushing him away, she grinned wickedly. She continued to let his actions remain unrequited. Brian thought he was kissing a soulless body.
