Love Began with the First Meeting

"Yeah. And Mr. Long seems to like her. A lot." Lucy acted all childlike and innocent. But secretly, she was enjoying the reaction she was getting from Becky. She might get her drama after all. "There was a snowstorm the other day, and Mr. Long even built a snowman with Molly in the middle of the night."

Lucy paid close attention to Becky's facial expressions when she spoke. And when she saw Becky was clearly not happy about what she said, she added even more fuel to the fire. "Molly took off once, and hoped to leave for good. But Mr, Long brought her back here. I don't know why. He maintains she's a maid, but her bedroom is right next to his, and she doesn't really have much to do. Not very maid-like."

Becky's breath came in short gasps when she heard Lucy's words. Red-faced, she clenched her hands into tight fists, and trembled as she gritted her teeth. Then she opened her mouth again, but she couldn't even get the words out properly. "Brian... Last night, Brian..."

"Last night he went out with Molly. No clue where though, or what they did. But dad went to pick them up and brought them back here." Lucy chose her words carefully, deliberately leaving out other parts of the story. She felt elated to see Becky now. The girl was practically shaking with fury, and Lucy was extremely happy about it.

'Hey, Molly. Now that Becky's back, where will you go? You can't stay here now. So, wanna bet me how many days he'll let you stay here before you get kicked out?' Lucy thought viciously.

Right when she had this thought, Molly came out of the kitchen with a glass of orange juice in her hand. Lucy then told Becky,"Miss Yan, Molly has your juice." After a second she added,"Mr. Long has been busy all morning..."

Becky knew what Lucy was suggesting, and she smiled.

Naturally, she recoiled and drew her hand back. A normal reaction. But her sudden movement knocked the glass from Molly's hand, and the glass dropped to the floor. The clear sound of shattering glass could be heard, and juice and broken shards scattered everywhere.

"Ah--"
