Love Began with the First Meeting novel Chapter 696

The men slammed the door shut, locking Spark inside the car. Although he was now trapped in the car, it was noticed by some people who happened to pass by. Some were curious, and others were scared. No one could do anything else but stare helplessly as they drove away, accelerating out of the street.

With mouth agape, Little Cutie blinked excessively while watching the situation that transpired. For a while, she, too, couldn't find it in her to react to what was happening. When she finally composed herself, the business car was already too far, but still within sight. She hastily hailed a taxi, jumped into it, and told the taxi driver, "Please, follow that business car over there! Hurry!"

Little Cutie was breathing heavily. While she didn't know what to do exactly, she kept a close eye on the business car before them, urging the driver to stay close. Suddenly, she thought of Molly. 'Yes, ' she thought frantically, 'Molly would know what to do.' She took out her phone and dialed Molly's number. She listened to the phone ring while staring at the business car.

Her fingers trembled in fear, and for a few times, she would drop her phone beside her. Despite such crippling emotions overwhelming Little Cutie, she did her best to wait for Molly to answer.

Molly was sitting on a bench, looking at the sun move towards the west all day. She wore a dull and blank expression, deep in thought. Trapped, it was all she was allowed to do. Black Wolf whimpered from time to time, his big head always searching for a comfortable position. Looking at the men in black who walked in front of him, the dog blinked weakly. He changed his position a few more times before finally settling and closing his eyes.

Molly didn't eat the entire day, and neither did Black Wolf. While Molly's case was due to not having an appetite, poor Black Wolf was simply forbidden to eat. Molly didn't naturally consider whether Black Wolf ate or not. But this time, it was different because she might have had something to do with the dog's misfortune.

Before Brian left, he ordered everyone not to feed Black Wolf for three days. That they were only allowed to offer him water, and nothing else. Everyone was at a loss. It was such a severe punishment for Black Wolf. After all, he was the only animal that Brian really cared about. Some speculated that it was because Black Wolf attacked Molly. But people had come forward to deny the allegation, explaining that Black Wolf was only showing her affection in the only way he knew. During that time, while everyone was puzzled, Brian's facial expression grew darker. Only Tony could guess correctly why Black Wolf was really being punished. It was because he had his paws on a particular part of Molly's body, someplace where it had no business being there.

The afterglow of the sunset presented its final beauty, revealing the calm before the storm.

When Molly's phone rang, she pushed her empty thoughts aside and answered it. When she heard Little Cutie speak in a rapid and distressed manner, her facial expression changed almost at once. "What? Slow down, Little Cutie. What did you just say?" Molly asked. She couldn't believe her ears.

Little Cutie swallowed her anxiety and tried again, "Molly. Spark was taken away by Mr. Brian Long's people. But I can sense that something is off."

Hearing this, Molly almost couldn't breathe. Anxiously, she asked, "What happened?"

"I don't know either," said Little Cutie genuinely. "I'm following the car right now. Please, just come... oh no," Little Cutie sounded more worried, "I don't know where I am right now." Panicking, Little Cutie continued to ramble incoherently, "No. Maybe I should call the police first-"

"No!" Molly spat out immediately without thinking. All she knew was that she had to stop Little Cutie. She guessed that Brian really had something to do with Spark's kidnapping. The phrase that Brian told her earlier, "And the crueler things are waiting for you," echoed in her head. She said, sounding determined, "You can't call the police."

"But why?" asked Little Cutie, a bit surprised.

"Don't ask any more questions. Anyway, you really shouldn't call the police," Molly said hastily. "Little Cutie, you shouldn't have gotten involved in the first place. Don't meddle anymore, and keep your distance. When you know your location, just tell me. I'll find a way to be there."

Little Cutie looked at the speeding car, and then at taxi diver who was glancing at her. "Okay," she replied, "I'll keep following them then. Call you later."

"You need to be very careful, Little Cutie. Take care of yourself!" Molly said, and hung up the phone. Although Molly worried about Little Cutie, she knew that Brian wouldn't do anything to harm her. But as long as he had Spark in his possession, he also had his fingers wrapped tightly around her heart.
