Love Began with the First Meeting

Brian gently stroke her swollen cheeks with his fingers. She had slapped him out of anger. When the anger was gone, she wept and passed out in his arms. Even when she was unconscious, she still frowned at the pain as he touched her face. Brian's heart ached.

Yes, she blamed him. And she was right in doing so. He should not have made her come back to the Grand Night Casino. Worse, he should not have made her come back to work in such a dangerous situation. He should have locked her up in the cottage, at least she wouldn't have been humiliated again.

"Find out who sent those people," Brian said as he looked affectionately at Molly who was a total mess now. His voice was arctic cold.

"Okay!" Tony replied, as the car arrived at the hospital.

Brian carried Molly out of the car and took her to the doctor. Two hours passed after the doctor had examined her and gave her medication. Brian was struck by mixed feelings as he watched her sleep comfortably and peacefully on the bed after a tensed day. It felt as bitter as goldthread root one moment and as sweet as honey the next. These two different kinds of feelings intertwined in his heart, confusing him. He didn't know what to do with Molly.

Tony's phone rang. "Mr. Brian Long, Adele and Melvin are on," Tony said in a low voice.

Brian's eyes were still focused on Molly. He took Molly's hand in his big palm and examined it. Minor scratches were scattered throughout her hand, making her hand look all the more rough. Nevertheless, holding her hand, Brian felt a sense of satisfaction. The feeling was much like... Yes, it was happiness.
