Love Began with the First Meeting novel Chapter 840

"I want you in my life forever! I want you in my world forever! You're the most precious thing in my life.

You are my world."

Molly gazed at Brian for a long time. His words were like a catchy tune that stayed in your head. Her nose grew sore and tears formed in her eyes.

He almost never talked so sweetly. But why did she remember it every time he did so? How could he move her so deeply? How could he make her feel so sweet, like there was honey in her heart?.

Eric and Wing were taking a peek at the outside of the Glamour Hall. And Mark wedged his head between them. When Mark saw how the Glamour Hall had changed, his mouth opened wide. You could have fit a pigeon's egg in there.

"Well," Eric sighed while shaking his head, "Brian is not one for grand gestures. But this? This is beyond the pale!"

Wing was actually relieved. She had worried about Brian and Molly for a long time. She stroked her chest and said, "Oh wow. I thought I got it wrong. They punked me. Look at all this!"

Eric laughed heartily and looked at Wing, "Brian knew we were following him. He's not dumb. So he put on an act, and fooled all of us!" Looking around at the decorations in the yard, Eric went on, sighing, "Looks like Brian asked someone to decorate the Long Family Mansion after we took off." 'Good show, brother!' Eric said to himself, 'Not only did you pull off a miracle, but you scared us in the process!'

Wing was all smiling and said, "I'm so jealous. My guy doesn't have a romantic bone in his body! Molly is a lucky gal!"

"But Aunt Wing," Mark said, disagreeing. "This is all old-hat."

"..." Wing froze, with a strangely immobile smile on her face. Mark didn't notice. He was still peering around the place, still in the middle of his critique.

He pursed his lips and said, "You can see all this when you watch TV. It's nothing new..." Frowning, Mark looked at Brian, then turned to Molly and said, "But Mommy seems to like it."

Eric chimed in, "Pipe down, rugrat. Say something nice for a change." Eric gave Mark a disapproving look. "As long as it works, it doesn't matter," Eric added.

Mark just twitched his lips, and said nothing. He seemed to disagree with Eric, but finally decided to keep it to himself. After all, Mark was only a kid.

Molly was still drowning in the sea of romantic emotions that Brian had stirred up, when a strong light shone down before her. She raised her head and through her tearful eyes, she saw a white grand piano, with a bouquet of lilies. The flowers looked so beautiful in the shiny blue wrapping paper.

Tears flowed freely. Molly was deeply moved and her heart skipped a beat thinking about what Brian had done for her. Molly sniffed and gazed at Brian, doing nothing else.

Brian's lips curled and he gave her a slight smile. He put his hand on Molly's face, gently wiped her tears, and said in a soft voice, "I'll give you whatever you want. All I want is you in my life—every second, every hour, and every day from now on."

Molly still said nothing, and just smiled with tears in her eyes. Though her vision was blurred by tears, she saw Brian go over to the piano and sit down. While he gazed with affection at her, Brian positioned his tapered fingers on the black-and-white keys.

Brian's fingers danced on the keys, his performance flawless, his execution technically excellent. Were these hands the same ones that wielded instruments of death?

While Brian gazed at Molly emotionally, he started to sing along to the tune he was playing:

"Look into my eyes, you will see what you mean to me.

Search your heart, search your soul, And when you find me there, You'll search no more.

Don't tell me it's not worth trying for, You can't tell me it's not worth dying for.

You know it's true.

Everything I do, I do it for you.

Look into your heart, You will find there's nothin' there to hide.

Take me as l am, take my life.
