Love Began with the First Meeting

When Eric's car stopped outside the manor, a waiter came and opened the car doors for them. Eric gave his car keys to the waiter to have the car parked. Then, he walked to Molly's side, stretched out his arm and, wearing a playful smile on his face, beckoned her to hold his arm.

But Molly didn't budge as she was hesitating. Baffled, she looked at Eric's arm and then looked at his eyes.

Ignoring her embarrassment, Eric grabbed her arm and wrapped it around his own. Raising his brows towards Molly, he said like a naughty boy, "You're my female companion tonight. Do you mean to walk in separated ways with me?"

Without giving Molly the chance to say anything back, Eric had already pulled her to walk inside the manor.

As they walked through the crowd of people, Molly saw a lot of beautiful and elegant women and all kinds of celebrities there. Gradually, a sense of inferiority rose in her heart. She nervously gnawed on her lower lip and clenched her hands.

Eric seemed to have sensed her nervousness. He gently pinched her cold hand and, slightly furrowing his brows, he said in an attractive voice, "As long as you are confident in and of yourself, you will be the focus of this party. Do you understand?"

Molly looked towards him and saw the serious and affirmative look in his eyes. She slightly pursed her lips together which were painted with pink lipstick, and nodded her head.

Smiling, Eric held Molly's hand even tighter and urged, "Hurry up. It's so cold outside!"

Rubbing Molly's cold hands to give her warmth, Eric picked up his pace and walked toward the hall.
