At the same time in the control room, Tony was surprised as the screens of the monitor suddenly turned black. He stared at the blank screens in utter shock and said, "What a tough lady she is! I've never seen any one similar like her before. Who is she?"
In the VVIP playing room.
On the plush velvet seat, Brian Long just sat there, his face still void of emotions like usual but his eyes hid something that couldn't be quite peaceful as he gazed at Molly. He glanced at the broken CCTV cameras in the room silently, as if he expected this to happen.
However, his mind was not peaceful as his face. 'The whole process, including both the action of taking out the gun and the way to load the gun, plus the movement to shoot, were extremely smooth. All the actions were well planned!
She acted swiftly, accurately and relentlessly!'
Now that the cameras were gone, Molly's lips curled into a charming smile as she looked at Brian. She got up from her seat and sauntered towards him, then leaned herself against the table in a seductive manner. She gazed at Brian like a sultry temptress and asked, "Are you sure that you want to see my face behind the mask, Brian Long?"
In turn, Brian snuffed out the last smoke from his cigarette and chucked it in the ashtray then said, "No, I don't need to now." His orbs looked at Molly in disdain but at the same time, he tried to memorize her face. His heart surprisingly felt strange. He then stood up and went outside, glancing at Molly through his peripheral view with a stone cold expression.
"Brian!" Molly immediately stood up and exclaimed as she watched Brian's back. However, the man just walked directly outside without any hesitation. This irritated her to no end. "Brian, are you really a man?" Molly stomped her foot in annoyance and yelled at him.
Her loud voice was heard throughout the room.
After a while, Brian paused in his tracks. He turned around slowly, and his eyes glazed over with coldness. He said, "You should know it very clearly whether I am a man or not, don't you?"
Before Molly could even retort back, Brian sneered at her and his cold voice said, "Molly Xia!"
She was momentarily petrified.
Molly was quite astonished. She gave Brian an incredulous look. She had disguised herself before she came here, and even wore a mask for extra precaution in fear of being recognized by others.
It seemed that it didn't work on him.
How did Brian know it was her?
Then, his deep voice spoke again, "Do you know what kind of women I hate the most?"
His hands were in his pockets, then he added, "Women throwing themselves at me!"
The words rolled slowly and indifferently off his tongue.
At this, Molly's hands balled tightly into fists but eventually loosened up again. Then she said, "Oh, I see. But is that true?
Why is it different in my memory?
At that time it was I who threw myself at you and you accepted without any hesitation. How can you explain that?"
In turn, Brian's eyebrows furrowed slightly, but the cold expression on his face did not change at all. "That was true," He spoke slowly, heavy sarcasm laced his voice.
