Love Began with the First Meeting

Chapter 80 Being Restless (Part Two)

Secretly Molly glanced at Brian who still looked aloof. In her mind, she scolded Eric, indignant at his tactless manner. If she massaged Brian's ego with feigned obedience, she realized he'd be nice to her. Lately, it seemed to work, just fine. Lisa had once told her that Brian was a nice person. Now, as she thought about Lisa's words, she seemed to understand. The problem with Brian, was power. Power corrupts; absolute power corrupts absolutely, they said. The corruption for Brian was that with all his power and money, rarely did he get people who contradicted him. As such, Brian had never learnt tolerance for dissenting opinion.

Besides, he was an overly possessive man. Molly didn't know how he treated his other women, but it was obvious that he couldn't stand the thought of another man close to his woman. Was that what Eric was playing on?

"I didn't tell him my phone number!" Molly said, biting her lips.

"You seem to be busy..." Brian slowly said with a touch of sarcasm in his voice. He glanced at Molly with a sullen gaze, and an indifferent expression was revealed on his handsome face. "You want to leave me. At the same time, you wonder how to face Edgar and even try to seduce Eric." Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Infuriated, Molly rebutted, "That's not true!"

"Then what's the truth?" In a cold sneer, Brian went on, "Molly, I'm the one that started this game. The same way, until I say it's over, don't even think about leaving. Whether your one month is elapsed or not, I'm staying firmly in charge. And as far as I'm concerned, you might as well abandon any remote hopes of ever leaving me!"

That took Molly by surprise. In a quavering voice, she pleaded, "Brian, you can't do that to me!"

"I can't?" There was a marked touch of indifference in Brian's voice. "I can do whatever I want to!" he continued.

'Anger is not necessary at the moment, ' Molly thought to herself. As she struggled to control her breathing, she tightly gripped Brian's coat which she was wearing. "I have complied with your rules. Absolutely, I have been obedient to you. What else do you want from me? Brian, do you have to be so domineering?"

"Yes!" Even though Brian gently blinked with a faint, sarcastic smile, trying to spice up the response, it all sounded flat.

Many women would have fancied being his women, and they'd give everything just to be with him.

But not Molly. She counted the days, her anticipation of liberty growing with each passing count. The desire to leave at the end of the agreed one month was intense. In fact, she even wished she could escape, except that, with that option, the odds were stacked heavily against her. Brian looked at her, but she didn't notice. She just looked out of the window, lost in thought. He could see her slight smile because the corners of her lips were raised. In a similar curve, even the corners of her eyes were raised. She never smiled like that in front of him. Sometimes he saw her smile, but only when she was happy, thinking she could leave him.

When she told him that day that she was bored, he agreed to let her go out for work, and he had noticed how excited she was. At that moment, he really wanted to press his body against her, but he restrained himself, careful not to aggravate the wound on her back.

Since when did he start showing consideration for others?

"Brian, you're the devil incarnate!" Very upset, Molly said something reckless, but she ignored the consequence. She didn't care at that particular time. Perhaps, from the very beginning, Brian didn't intend to let her go at the end of one month as agreed. This was not her first experience with abusive and manipulative men. In fact she had been in Brian's bed before because she was drugged by others. A helpless, innocent victim she was. Was there anyone in the world who could help her out of all this?

The hurtful words of Edgar, earlier tonight came to mind. Then she heard Brian's words and also learned that he was the boss of the Grand Night Casino. The two discoveries had startled her, but she told herself not to care about some things.

The only thing that she needed to do was obey and please Brian and harmoniously live with him for the last ten days. After she left him, all of these people would have nothing to do with her.

At the end of her stint with Brian, she would leave this decadent city with her parents and go to another place to start a new life!

That new chapter would once and for all put an end to her father's gambling, especially if there were no legal casinos in the city. Her mother would also not have to worry about her father anymore, and she would get well and back to perfect health again. Everything would be better as long as she worked hard enough!

However, she learned from the pitiless expression in Brian's eyes that all of her thoughts were just impractical. She had a feeling that she might never get rid of this man in her life!

At the thought of this, Molly trembled. She gazed at Brian in despair and pleaded, "When will you ever let me go?"

"Until I'm fed up with you!" Brian replied nonchalantly, displeased that Molly had a strong desire for leaving him. At that moment, he burnt inside with tempestuous rage. He really wanted to shatter her into pieces.

Casting Molly a cold glance, he threw his arm around her and drew her close. He leaned towards her and began to kiss her trembling lips rudely.

After kissing her lips for a little while, he poked his tongue into her mouth boorishly, intentionally trying to spook her.

These days, he tried his best to restrain his sexual desire because of her wound. Whenever he met Molly, Brian would easily get sexually aroused. Even though he once received the sexual restraint training, it simply didn't work for him with this woman.

Earlier on, he felt like he wanted to shatter her into pieces, but now he was consumed with wild passion and lustful longing for her.

A struggling Molly tried break away from Brian's control, but all her efforts were weak. Left with no other choice, she had to endure his arrogance. The helplessness made her so upset that she broke down into tears.

The insult of Brian's rude kisses was more depressing than Edgar's indifferent glance. It was also even more upsetting than Edgar's caustic, embarrassed words. Tony was in the car, noticing Brian's recklessness. How could Brian be so supercilious to kiss her in such a situation?

On his part, Tony kept driving, snug as a bug in a rug. His expressionless face seemed to only look ahead, ignoring what was happening behind him.

Meanwhile, Brian kept on with his thoughtless indulgence, until he finally looked at Molly and only to find her in tears. Surprised, he instantly let her loose.

With her lips still trembling, Molly cried silently. When she lifted her face to look at Brian, anger colored her face.

Speechless, Brian sat beside her, brooding. He felt restless, uneasy with Molly's tears. Her eyes had an uncanny resemblance to Becky's. Becky had also cried in front of him before. However, Becky's tears had never moved him. He couldn't understand why the odd feeling he now had at the sight of Molly's tears.

"Ding!" Brian's phone suddenly rang. After casting Molly another glance, he pulled out his phone, quickly recognized the number on the phone screen, and answered without hesitation.
