Love Began with the First Meeting
Chapter 1042 Extra Story 23 Of Sweetness Between Bri And Mol The Competition

Totally embarrassed by what had happened, Edgar's face grew pale and sweaty. With his deep, dark and keen eyes, Brian guessed roughly what Edgar was thinking. After all, it was his talent-reading people's minds. Thinking how to handle the matter, Brian remained calm and composed while saying indifferently, "It's just a cook. I don't think General Gu will be so stingy about this matter, don't you?"

Upon hearing his question, Edgar's mouth began to twitch, but his teeth were secretly gritted. Right at the very moment, he was struggling to hold back his urge to have a good fight with Brian. His hands that were holding a pair of chopsticks were clenched in a tight fist, almost breaking the chopsticks in halves. This man was lucky last time that I spared him because of Molly. I came into few contacts with him. However, when it comes to physical fights, there is no real competition between us. In the past, what I had for him was only hate for stealing the heart of the one I loved, but now, I will suffer from the pain of losing my cook. Hmmm, that's too much already. Brian, you must be dreaming!' Edgar thought.

Smiling and fixing his eyes at Brian, Edgar stopped himself from feeling angry, calmed himself down and laid the chopsticks on his plate before saying, "Mr. Brian, you are kidding. It's just a cook. The cook, himself is not worth your attention. Besides, the catering team of the Dragon Empire Group recruits nearly all the chefs with great cooking skills around the city and even internationally. Maybe there is no need for you to hire this cook. One cook would not make any difference, after all, right?"

"But, Uncle Edgar, look at Evelyn," Charlie said at this moment, looking at Edgar with a serious look on his face, "It seems that Evelyn enjoys this meal prepared by the cook. Uncle Edgar will be happy to let Dad take the cook back home."

Hearing what Charlie had said and looking at the child's begging eyes, Edgar couldn't help but be moved by the child's behavior. At Charlie's young age, he was so selfless to think about his twin sister and beg in her behalf.

Edgar was extremely shocked and puzzled at the same time. 'Molly and Brian have done a great job in raising their kids up,' he thought silently. Thinking silently, an old cliche came into his mind. Indeed it was like father like son. 'Charlie is such a thoughtful person, cunning, and clever at the same time just as his father. On the onset, Charlie is cute, lovely and harmless. But when he speaks, you will sense that his measure of intelligence was beyond his age, ' Edgar wondered.

Seated on the other side of the table, Daniel and Cathy who were busy munching on their foods looked at each other and both grinned at the sound of Charlie's pleas. In the eye of Daniel and Cathy, Edgar was a powerful man and he could exert significant influences on the enemy either in real combat or in large-scale military exercises. It was no exaggeration to say that he was a nightmare for the enemy forces! However, when Edgar met Brian, the situation turned totally different. People around them couldn't understand what was with Brian that intimidated Edgar, but they knew clearly that the general had found a match in Brian. This proved the saying that there was always one thing to overcome another. Needless to say, in this case, it was Brian for Edgar.

Proud at his son, Brian slowly leaned against his chair and glanced at her daughter Evelyn with a spoiled smile. She was really enjoying the delicious food and was so fond of the meal that she was brimming while eating. Seeing his child genuine happiness, Brian looked at Edgar before saying, "As you wish, the result is the cook..." He spoke so euphemistically that his eyes grew deep as he stared at Edgar. His remark was a statement rather than an inquiry. Brian implied what was on his mind and what he wanted to happen. Left with no choice, Edgar gave a knowing smile towards Brian. In this world, there were only a few people who were blessed to understand you even without saying a lot. Edgar knew that Brian was among one of the chosen blessed. As years passed by, Edgar and Brian's treatment towards each other had changed a lot. They were in a tit-for-tat state at the beginning, later they maintained close and complex ties with each other. Today, however, they simply appreciated each other. Many things remained unchanged with the passing of time, but the passion for someone that was deeply rooted within your heart was probably the hardest one to change.

"Someone does not yet know. It doesn't seem to make much sense for Mr. Brian to win or lose." Saying these words, Edgar wore a happy smile on his face, masking the indifference he felt deep inside.

Brian slightly shrugged his shoulders and said, "Well whether I take the cook away by then or not depends on my ability."

"Okay!" The crazy hormones in Edgar's body were already running wild and his restless and manic heart was thrilled to finally put up a good fight with Brian. "See you at Daniel's training ground at 9 p.m."

This competition was by no means just simple Chinese boxing. Excited at the thought of beating Brian up, Edgar also wanted to know how capable Brian was.

As innocent as she was, Evelyn was enjoying her delicious food and didn't know that her request had triggered a long-forgotten struggle between Edgar and Brian. Although the two got along well with each other, they also wanted to gauge their own strengths as matched with each other through this competition. Thus, both of them knew that it was necessary to carry out this fight and no one wanted to refuse against the challenge.

Sensing trouble, Molly thought that the fight was totally unnecessary. She frowned slightly, looked at Edgar and Brian, and said with disapproval,"Bri, what do you think are you doing?" There was some irony in her words and the cold expression in her eyes gave Brian a message that she was not happy about the matter.

However, Brian was so eager to prove himself that he didn't mind what Molly said. He just gave her a faint smile and whispered, "Sometimes, some things must come to an end."

Confused at what he meant, Molly frowned even harder and rolled up her eyes on him. She didn't want to see them compete, least seeing her husband being beaten up or her husband beating others up, which would be too violent for her. 'Bri is the leader of the XK Intelligence Agency. Besides, I also witnessed the intensity of training there. If it happened in the past, I wouldn't object to it. But after five Golden Flower training, I'm confident that because of the painful pieces of training she had grown more persistent.

As for Edgar, he is the best in the courtyard when he was young, and then he goes through so much in the field. The army training is also cruel. It is absolutely a feather in the cap for him to achieve his position. Such two people are to compete...' Molly wondered and couldn't finish her thoughts as she imagined what was about to happen.

The more she thought about it, the less she wanted them to compete. Stressed and worried, her brows were twisted together and lost her appetite when they were halfway through their meal.

Unlike Molly, Daniel's eyes lit up when he heard that Brian would compete against Edgar. In his mind, he anticipated the fight and his eyes grew bright as he felt excited at the upcoming event. During the meal, Daniel wanted to express his desire to watch both of them compete several times, but when he wanted to say something, he was feared by Edgar's sharp eyes. Daniel failed to achieve his goal, so he grew more and more anxious. This time, however, realizing that what he wished for would eventually happen, Daniel was thrilled.
