Love Began with the First Meeting

Chapter 224 Mist- Under Whose Control (Part Two)

They two had been talking until noon when at long last, the man stood up and left. But Steven did not move. He remained glued to the same spot, looking out the window, the same way he had done while waiting for the man. He did not look away from the window, even after seeing the man drive off.

"No!" Brian refused without thinking.

Molly frowned and typed in a hurry,"Why?"
