Love Began with the First Meeting
Chapter 496 The Bubble Bursts (Part Five)

At that moment, Mark's indifference was torn from his small face. His emotions overflew and tears burst forth from his bright and lovely eyes. The great anger and grievance that he had kept bottled up in his chest for three days finally found release. He stretched out his hands and gesticulated excitedly and fiercely, "I don't want to part with mom. I don't want that man to be my dad. I just want my own mom and dad. I don't want a strange dad!" Mark cried so hard that he couldn't control himself. His small body was racked with sobs and his mouth opened and closed incessantly as if he wanted to expel the words from his mouth. However, no sound escaped his lips.

As Molly looked at her son's crying form, she couldn't control herself either and tears poured down her face. Her tears were drenched with bloody streaks because she had exhausted them in the last three days. She clasped Mark into her chest tightly and sobbed, "Mark will never part with mom. Mom will never allow that to happen!"

The weeping mother and son filled the atmosphere with sadness and anguish. The audience was enveloped by great sorrow and empathy. As all the people inside the room were moved by that pitiful sight, nobody noticed the silent figure who left the room. He walked towards the dimly lit hall with his arrogant back straight and stiff as an arrow. Everyone paid their pathetic attention to Molly and Mark, while was oblivious to the anguish and sorrow in the solitary man's face. Standing in the dimly lit corner, he comforted himself silently. Who should be more woeful than him?

From the beginning, he had wanted to risk his life and all he had to protect her and give her the life she wanted. But she had left him ruthlessly and determinedly when he had been badly hurt and after he had begged her to stay. Who would be more anguished than him?

During the three and a half year's hellish life, she was just like a white ant eating into his heart every hour, every minute and every second!

Who in this world would have a more complex and entangled emotions than him?

He didn't want to lose her... and he couldn't bear to lose her. But he wanted her to have the freedom and ability to pursue the life that would make her happy. So, he let her be... Finally, however, he found out that they were all lies. Who would be more miserable than him?

He had made up his mind to let her go while secretly keeping in touch with her life without letting her know. She was like a kite that he let go to roam freely in the sky. A colorful kite that was never out of sight and always with the strings attached to his hands. He had no idea that Molly had conceived his child and never told him. He never thought she could be cruel and ruthless like that. He had lost the opportunity to bond with his son and support him with his strength and presence during an important period in his life. Now, Mark would not accept, Brian, his real father, who was robbed of his son for four years!

'Molly, since you treat me like that, if I didn't pay you back for all that I have suffered, what a tragedy will I be?'

There were hot tears roaming in his red and sad eyes. Brian closed his eyes and clenched his teeth as if biting a bullet to stop from feeling pain. Closing his eyes stopped the tears from falling. Pulling himself together, a tinge of sneer appeared on his face and the coldness came back to his eyes.

Tony stood in silence, looking at his young master as he tried to hide his suffering. He had never seen Brian torn like that before. Even from where he was hiding, he could see the glitter of tears on his eyes. Obviously, Brian was on the verge of crying out. He gave a sigh of relief as he observed Brian getting his emotions under control. The savage smile on his lips and his cold eyes reassured him. 'Molly, what kind of woman are you... That you are capable of hurting Mr. Brian Long so deeply? You are just like the Achilles' heel of Mr. Brian Long. You are born to torment him!"

Tony clenched his fists by his side. His eyes were gloomy and murderous. At that very moment, he had an urge to kill Molly right now to protect his young master from further anguish. After killing this annoying woman, he would kill himself for expiation! "How is the survey on Jenifer going?"

As Tony was on the verge of venting his anger on Molly, suddenly a calm and authoritative voice drew him back to reality. There were no sorrow and anger in Brian's voice. He had muffled all his mixed emotions just like he always did.

"We have almost finished the survey and collected enough evidence." Tony answered mildly, putting his evil thought of killing Molly at the back of his head. After he had come back, he devoted himself into investigating who had leaked the information to the press. To his surprise, he had found that Jenifer has become the vice-mayor of T City. She was responsible for administering the politics and law system of T City. It seemed that everything was destined already. They all thought that everything had ended four years ago. But fate had brought them all together in a curious gathering and nobody knew how it was going to play out.

Brian didn't say a word. He just walked directly to his lounge, waiting for the court to open the session.

Ten minutes later, a closed court hearing was held in No. 5 Court. The related personnel, juries and recorders for both parties came into the court. There were ten lawyers on Molly's side to form an intimidating group. On the contrary, there was only one lawyer on Brian's side. That was Spencer.
