Chapter 339 Tension In The Air (Part Three)
Justin smiled and said coldly, "Everyone should be prepared to risk their lives for the sake of their country." Justin softened his tone and continued to speak before Rory could interrupt, "I will consider your needs, but remember to never take Brian lightly again. You'd better make no moves without careful planning. If you ruin my plans, even though you are my brother, I will not forgive you."
Justin hung up. He asked Jona, "How is everything going with Howard?"
"Two men dead and two injured," Jona replied.
Justin turned around slowly and said, "This Brian... we underestimated him."
Jona nodded, "Vice president, should we send for the special troop?"
"No," Justin sneered, "The leaders at the top have their own means of doing things. They sent Howard to take care of their business, and I believe that Jonny will be worried. I heard that Jenifer is also in A City?"
"Yes," Jona nodded, "She is with Edgar."
"Huh, she is still dead set on following him," Justin snorted in contempt. In his eyes, people who did things they were not supposed to do for the sake of love were all stupid. "I wonder how Edgar feels about Molly now."
"I'm afraid it's not that simple."
"It's more interesting that way," Justin said and laughed, "Brian, Edgar, Molly and Jenifer..." Justin paused and took out a cigarette. He lit the end and took a puff and then slowly blew out the smoke. "Maybe, we should change the direction of our plan a little bit."NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.
Justin sat back on the sofa. His eyes were focused on the television screen and they twinkled with fresh ideas. Maybe this time, he could not only solve the matters of the past, but also change the current situation between the old and new party.
Justin's lips curved into a cunning smile. Everyone around him were just pawns, pieces he could use to win his game.
As time passed, gambling in the Grand Night Casino gradually drew to an end. At long last, the gambling ended with Adele's huge victory. She successfully won the luxury liner from Melvin just as she had wished. Everyone involved in the gambling wondered why Adele was so lucky that night. In fact, if Melvin had dared to put in more stakes, it was highly likely that she could have won most of the stocks of Qin Group. But why did she only want to get the liner from Melvin all this time?
As everyone thought about the possible answers to this question, Adele, wearing a fascinating smile, tore the letter of assignment in front of all the gamblers. She threw the torn pieces of the letter at Melvin and left with the words, 'Something from a jerk caused sores on my hand'.
It made Melvin a laughing stock in the gamble. But as far as Melvin was concerned, it aroused his interest in her.
Brian smiled gently when he heard Jason's report on the gambling result. He said, "When women become ruthless, they can be more aggressive than men."
Jason grinned. His thoughts drifted to what Tony had said the day before. It made him kind of emotional. No matter where or when he heard things about love and women, his heart would go back to his sorrowful past. He tried to take his mind off it and continued with the report, "When Adele left, she asked me to say thanks to you from her side. And..." Jason looked a little hesitant. He paused and continued, "she also said that...she hoped you...you...wouldn't... follow in the footsteps of... of that jerk. Err...I will be getting off work now. Mr. Brian Long, don't think too much about this."
Jason hung up as soon as he finished saying that. He was sweating all over. Even though he was inside the room, he could still feel a cold wind blowing from somewhere. It sent a shiver down his spine.
Brian frowned. His face became sullen after the call ended. How dare Adele compare him to Melvin?
Brian narrowed his eyes, a sharp light emanated from them. Sharp enough to kill anyone in its path.
His phone buzzed again. Brian glanced at the screen. He clicked the answer button furiously and asked, "What's up?"
"You seem down," Victor's graceful voice came through, "Did Adele cause trouble for you ?"
"It's okay," Brian said coldly, "But I will have you return this favor."
"Okay, I will take special care of your woman."
Victor's words sounded ambiguous, but Brian didn't think further about it because he was pretty upset already. Victor really meant what he said. One day, he would make good on his promise.
They chatted for a while and then Brian hung up. Outside, the darkness of the sky was dispersed by the morning rays. A new day was upon them as the sun rose once again in the horizon.
Molly rolled over uneasily. She was sore all over her body. The swelling in her face had reduced, but it made the finger marks on her face more distinct.
She licked her dry lips. She furrowed her brows, out of pain and discomfort.
Brian's eyes darkened after seeing her painful expressions. He reluctantly sat on the side of her bed and took the glass of water from the bedside table. He dipped a cotton swab in the water and moisturized her lips. He had never done such things before and his movements were awkward. He almost dropped the swab into her mouth several times.
Molly, though she was still unconscious, voraciously licked her moisturized lips with the tip of her pink tongue. Brian inadvertently smiled at the cute movement of her tongue. He wet her lips again and she immediately stuck out her tongue to lick the water. He repeated this over and over again and watched her swallow the little amount of water on her lips. He thought it was kind of funny. He felt a surge of lust from the lower part of his body. The fiery desire claimed the better of him and he couldn't control himself anymore. Stopping his hand in mid-air, he slowly lowered his head and pressed his forehead onto hers. He looked hungrily at her luscious lips and tongue and he knew that he wanted her.
He brought his face closer to hers. Molly's thirsty tongue anxiously moved around searching for more water and Brian lowered her head deeper. Just a moment before Brian could touch her lips, Molly suddenly opened her eyes. She was still in a daze and she looked at Brian's handsome face blankly. Why was his face so close to hers?
