Love Began with the First Meeting

No matter how long the night, how bad the dream, a new day is always sure to come!

Molly slowly emerged from her sleep. She opened her eyes, looked around, and started to come fully awake.

She swallowed hard and tried to get up from the floor. "Ahh," she shouted and fell to the floor again. She had been sitting on the floor for so long that her legs had become numb and weak.

"Miss Xia, you're awake!" Lisa told Molly in a soft voice while smiling.

Molly looked at Lisa awkwardly with a light smile as she lay on the floor while rubbing her legs to reduce the numbness. Her eyes were all puffed up from crying overnight.

Lisa seemed to notice the sorrow and pain that Molly felt. She didn't ask Molly the reason why she slept below the stairs nor the reason why her eyes were swollen. Instead, she said in a low voice," Your breakfast is ready. You can clean yourself up and have your breakfast."

"Thank you!" answered Molly gratefully.

Lisa smiled at Molly and turned around to leave. Before taking a step, she remembered Brian's instruction. She turned back to Molly and saw her trying to get up from the floor, and said," Before Brian left, he asked me to tell you that you should not leave the house these days."

"Does he want to imprison me here?" Molly said carelessly. Seeing the surprised look on Lisa's face made her feel slightly embarrassed. The corner of her mouth twitched a little, then she said sheepishly," I mean… That's not what I meant."

Lisa was not the type of person who liked to meddle, so she just shook her head and said," That's what Brian asked me to tell you and I merely delivered the message to you."

quite difficult to see through him and his feelings. But after Lisa had spent some time with Molly, she started to think that if Becky didn't love Brian, then Molly could be a better choice for Brian.

She said sorry to Lisa for the trouble earlier and walked out of the house to breathe some fresh air. She stood in the garden and stared at the front gate with a strong desire to walk beyond it shining in
