Love Began with the First Meeting novel Chapter 782

For the most part of my life, I was like a kite without a rein; I did not know where I was headed. But I never stopped flying, because I loathed the idea of falling to the ground.

"I have made the decision to pursue Little Molly once again. You're not going to stand in my way this time, are you, Brian?" Eric asked, taunting him. Despite his suited and executive look, the glint in Eric's eyes was that of the young and arrogant boy in the Sophia Grant Hotel many years ago.

Brian glared at him and tucked his fists into his pant pockets. He asked, "Weren't you supposed to go to T City?"

"I should have gone today. But when I heard that Little Molly and Mark had come back, I just had to drop by and see them." As he spoke, Eric shifted his glance from Brian to Molly with a nasty skittish smile on his face. Then he shifted his gaze back to Brian and the smile faded from his face. He said slowly, with a serious expression, "But to my surprise, as soon as I got off the plane, I heard about what happened last night. Brian, it is hard to believe that Little Molly and Mark could get caught in such a dangerous situation in your turf." Eric stood up slowly to show his dissatisfied face to Brian. His voice became lower and more outrageous, "I'm not sure if I should start doubting your authority here or..." he gritted his teeth and continued, " if I should believe that Molly is really not important to you anymore. "

His words stung Brian and he was aware of Eric's anger and disappointment. Eric, who stood in front of him, was the power holder of the Dragon Island, not the childish and arrogant boy from the past. Now, he was on par with Brian in both power and competence.

However, Brian chose to disregard his offensive words and replied in an insensitive manner, "Say whatever you want. I don't care about your opinions." His words displayed no emotions. There was none who could detect his real feelings which were hidden and locked away. Brian threw a sideways glance at Molly and walked past Eric in a steady pace, leaving Eric and Molly to look at his cold and nonchalant back.

As Brian got into the elevator, Eric furrowed his eyebrows. He shook his head slightly and put Brian out of his mind as he headed to the inpatient ward.

As soon as he entered the room, a brisk little voice yelled, "Uncle!"

Mark ran into Eric's arms with a huge smile. Eric caught him and threw him into the air and caught him with his strong arms. He examined him from head to toe and said delightfully, "Ha, Mark! You have grown so much in just two years. You are a tiny adult already."

Hearing his uncle's praise, Mark beamed with pride, "I'm the tallest in my class, Uncle!" He raised his tiny chin and puffed out his little chest. For a moment, he forgot all about the problems around him.

Eric kneaded Mark's small nose playfully and laughed with him. He then walked towards Molly. He felt a little angry when he noted her pale face and scolded, "If you want to be strong enough to be around Brian, you should pay a lot more attention to your health."

Molly shrugged her shoulders and passed him a bottle of water. She said in a calm tone, "It's nothing serious. Given that situation, I couldn't let the robber trigger the bomb."

"Hm..." Eric breathed a sigh, shaking his head. Looking at her with his brooding eyes, he thought to himself, 'Little Molly, don't you understand that if you get injured, Brian would move farther away from you?'

"Eric," Molly called him back from his thoughts, "Did you know that Brian had not lost his memory two years ago?"
