Chapter 327 Deleted Without Regrets (Part Two)
Just the other night, he had taken her hand in his and told her that he had been searching for peace of mind. They'd built snowmen because he knew that it would make her happier. Because of the dangerous situation last night, he had asked her to believe that he would never allow anyone to hurt her.
Brian had always been so aloof, proud, and arrogant to her, and that was what she had kept in her mind. But no matter what kind of man he was in her eyes, eventually, it wouldn't even matter. He, just like everyone else, would be on Becky's side and once again, she lost out to that God's favored girl who might be her sister.
"Molly!" Brian shouted agitatedly. He had never expected that Molly would behave like that. Watching her leave away in distress, Brian lost his usual calmness. He couldn't name that mixed feelings of nervousness, anger, and fear, but it seemed as though he was about to lose something important.
Despite Brian's urgent call, Molly didn't stop, nor did she show any hesitation. The tears stopped welling in her eyes, and it seemed that she had gone numb with pain. She felt totally empty inside. Her eyes stared forward blankly, and her feet kept moving automatically. She didn't even think about where she was going, nor did she pay any attention to the sharp gaze from behind.
Blood started to drip out of the wound from her fingers, and they dropped on the pathway paved with cobblestones as she dragged her feet heavily. NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.
She didn't want to break her heart anymore, because nobody would even care to comfort her afterwards. Why would she allow herself to lick her own wound after causing it to bleed over and over again?
She didn't want to hurt herself for someone else's sake anymore, whether it was her family, her friend, or love. She wanted to start living just for herself. She had tried to pursue a life where she could be
loved and understood, only to find that she had not only bothered others but also embarrassed herself. Why then should she continue with her stupid dream?
She dropped her gaze onto the ground, and her lips curled up into a mocking smile.
Suddenly, she heard some quick footsteps coming from behind. She felt a strong force and right then, her arm had been grabbed by a warm hand. She stopped and slightly tilted her head to look towards Brian.
With tightened eyebrows, Brian asked coldly,"What's wrong with your fingers?"
Molly felt annoyed and somewhat disgusted with his question. He had asked her out to warn her because Becky had gotten injured. He made it clear to her that all he cared about was Becky, then why did he have to pretend that he even cared about her all of a sudden? 'This stupid game between you and me is over. Since Becky has already come back to you, then why don't you just leave me alone?' Molly shouted at herself silently.
She managed to draw her hand back from Brian's hand when he loosened his grip. Seeing this, Brian's eyebrows knitted tightly, and a shade of annoyance flashed in his eyes.
Molly pointed at her throat, and then looked at Brian with mockery in her eyes. Her non-verbal message was clear: Brian could keep asking her questions, but she wouldn't answer because she couldn't speak, nor could she type on her phone because her fingers got injured.
Brian was irritated by the mockery in Molly's eyes. The look in his eyes darkened as he was about to say something out, but he suddenly paused when he recalled Lisa's explanation earlier. He met Molly's eyes, and in a hesitant tone, asked her,"Molly, did you-"
Realizing what he was about to say, Molly frowned and the mockery in her eyes grew deeper. Choked with anger at Molly's expression, Brian failed to finish his sentence.
Suddenly, Molly pulled out her phone and typed on it quickly with her bleeding fingers, and then showed it to Brian who then stared at the screen. "Mr. Brian Long, as a servant of yours, I'm flattered by your concern about my little wound. Please allow me to make my apologies to Miss Yan. I didn't hurt her on purpose. After all, since I couldn't speak, I wasn't able to remind her beforehand. Please forgive me. I promise you that it won't happen again!"
After reading all these words, Brian's blood spiked up and he immediately burst into anger. He was now convinced that Molly was sent by God to test his patience and his control over his emotions.
Pretending that she didn't notice the fury strongly radiating from Brian, Molly turned to her phone and typed on it again. "I'm sorry but I have to get back to prepare the lunch, Mr. Brian Long. If you don't have other instructions and commands, please allow me to leave now."
Reading the words on the screen, Brian felt instinctively disgusted with Molly's unfamiliar tone and speech. He had called her his servant at the fit of his rage, and she seemed to have taken it too seriously.
A servant living in the room next to his?
And enjoying a free car service every time she went to work?
Could any servant live such a comfortable life?
Still lost in his thoughts, Brian then noticed that Molly was showing him her phone once again, so he looked at the screen.
"There's no need for me to use this phone anymore. Please take it back now."
Guessing that he had finished reading the words, Molly was about to put the phone in his hand when Brian replied coldly,"Well, now that you don't need it any more, you can just throw it away."
After finishing those words, Brian focused his gaze tightly on Molly's face. He knew for sure that Molly wouldn't have the heart to throw the phone away. When she left him before, she hadn't taken anything with her except for the phone, and he bet that it was because of that photo in it.
