Love Began with the First Meeting -
Chapter 1064 Extra Story 45 Of Sweetness Between Bri And Mol Being In Love
"So, all we could do right now is wait and see what happens?" Brian murmured in a peaceful yet helpless tone, as he laid on the couch.
Helplessness also crept up on Jason's face. It made it reappearance after it had gone so fast the moment everyone in A City was watching them. They could not put blame on both the public and the media, Actually, they needed to protect them. Once something unexpected happened to them, they would blame everything on Mr. Brian Long even if he did nothing wrong.
Although Brian couldn't give any more damn, in all actuality, Dragon Island was what truly mattered. Public opinions were deadly, especially for a businessman like him. That was why he refused to be reported by media and didn't allow them to publish any news about him. Jason shrugged helplessly. "Brian, the truth is, it doesn't mean a lot to meddle in. I'm just worrying about Molly." Molly had worked as Jason's subordinate for such a long time. Although he might not fully see the whole scope of her personality, he was sure that her cowardice never changed since she was a waitress at the casino, and when she fell in love with Brian.
Also, Brian was such an excellent businessman. He was terrific in terms of appearance, personality and financial success. Besides those who had bad intentions, perhaps no one would agree that Molly was a perfect match for Mr. Brian Long.
Yet it was a different story when it came to Molly, a super confident girl.
Jason had a complicated mix of opinions towards her, even though he believed it was right for them to be together. One was strong, while the other was tender. They were well-matched to each other.
Looking at Jason, Brian smiled. In Jason's view, since their marriage, Brian often cracked a smile like this. At the very beginning, they had felt uncomfortable when they saw him doing it, highly afraid that if he became upset, their careers would end right then and there. But now, they had already gotten used to it.
"She won't!" Brian exclaimed, one hundred percent confident.
Sometimes Jason couldn't figure out how he could be so confident. As the saying goes, "A leopard cannot change his spots". Molly's character was shaped by both nature and nurture. A lie, if repeated often enough to her, would be accepted as the truth. Even if it was not real, it would be considered as the truth anyway.
However, Jason was totally wrong this time. Perhaps, Molly was a coward, timid, and shy girl. But she had been able to accomplish all the cruel training for Brian at the five Golden Flower. All of those indicated her true feelings and intentions for Brian.
In the past, while she knew that Brian was in love with her, she didn't think that she was a perfect match for him. Now, however, all these second-guessing were gone. In her heart, she knew that Brian did love her. Also, she now believed that she indeed suited him well. From her perspective, the only difference laid in whether you had any love for the other person, rather than if you could match him or her.
Staring at the man opposite her, Molly's face lit up. While she was used to Brian smiling warmly, it still makes her feel so good. From time to time, she brought her cup to her lips and slowly sipped coffee from it.
Luis was excited at the development that was taking place, as the he came to the place with ready to burn bridges. If Brian took revenge, Public Voice would be done. However, with Molly's support, he might feel better.
After getting out of the office that morning, he called Molly and made an appointment to meet her at this cafe. Molly knew nothing about him, but she still agreed to meet him. The whole meeting was for Molly to listen to him explain the reason why such a report was published in the newspaper. When Molly came, she held a copy of the newspaper with her.
After ordering coffee, she questioned Luis directly, "Are you going to tell me the truth, or do you just want to test and make me angry?"
Upon hearing that, Luis was taken aback. With such a face, he didn't expect Molly to be so straightforward. Despite his efforts in reading into Molly, he just couldn't gain full understanding of the woman. She used to be a waitress at Grand Night Casino. It was reported that she got involved with Brian because her father was in debt.
Most of the journalists like him had to make bold assumptions about respondents and verify them cautiously. And Molly's reaction somehow proved the speculation Luis made yesterday. She seemed to know the woman in the photo.
"I did come to visit you, Ms. Molly, for something." Luis decided to be straightforward as well. "I'm not sure whether my report was true or not, but judging from your words when you picked up the phone, I guess it was close enough to what the truth really is." After pausing for a second, he continued with a smile, "I intended to trigger some rage from you, but now I have changed my mind."
Luis stopped for a few moments and wondered whether it was possible for him to persuade Molly.
Lowering her eyes, Molly began stroking the handle of her coffee mug. The gesture wasn't anything out of the ordinary, but somehow it made Luis nervous and on edge.
Molly and Brian had been together for eleven years now. After going through so many things together, her sense of a mix of being both weak and strong should have faded away, and she should have turned into a woman who liked to boss people around. It was a pity that with the passage of time, her feelings towards Brian and her sense of happiness only became even more stable, and her unpredictable temperament still left others an impression that she was vulnerable.
But at this moment, she lowered her eyes and a sweet smile showed on her lips. Luis actually felt moved by what she did, and it dawned on him that maybe he should take into account retiring from the job he had and replace another one back in his hometown. If Public Voice failed, chances are that his career of being a journalist would also came to an end.
As moments dragged on by, Luis' stomach started to get filled by butterflies. Seemingly knowing the right time to do something, Molly suddenly raised her eyes and looked at him, and asked slowly, "I've heard of your newspaper before." As Luis was about to reply, she raised her eyebrows and questioned him, "Your real purpose is to protect Public Voice, right?"
Upon hearing this, Luis' mouth twisted. While he was prepared to cover his true intentions up by saying something else, he finally gave up and nodded, recognizing that what Molly said was right.
"Don't you think that it is ridiculous?" Molly continued, her voice started sound like she's challenging Luis. "You manufactured a story to report on my husband's extramarital affairs and other violence." While she stated whatever she wanted to say, a sweet smile was plastered to her lips, "Your claims are at best pure fabrications and at worst a deliberate attempt to slander our good reputation. It not only embarrassed my husband, but also made me depressed. Considering what you have done before, isn't it ridiculous to ask me to do a favor to save your newspaper?"
Luis shrugged, remained silent for a few seconds, sat up straight, and looked at Molly earnestly, "But the most important thing is, Mrs. Long, that we are adding a circulation today, which is ten times more than before."
