Love Began with the First Meeting
Chapter 718 Brian Suffered From A Memory Loss (Part Two)

Molly began crying again, feeling empty inside. In her mind, the word 'divorce' kept popping up. Even though that's what she said she's always wanted for a long time, now that it was really here, she realized she really didn't want it. Meanwhile, Richie and Eric stood in the corridor just looking at the mess and Molly who was crying. Both of their faces were unreadable.

"Brian's going too far," Eric mumbled angrily, clenching his teeth. He ran after Brian wanting to know what the hell he was doing.

"Molly, you should stop crying because your eyes... Well, won't it hurt your eyes?" Shirley was so worried because Molly had been crying too much these past few days that it might damage her eyes again. And when Brian finally recovered, she didn't want Brian to replace that her wife had gone blind again.

Molly couldn't hear anything at the moment. From dropping tears in silence to sobbing, choking, and then... Suddenly, she felt dizzy so she closed her eyes and took a deep breath. She opened her eyes and found that she was still dizzy-her world had seemingly turned upside down in front of her own eyes. Then suddenly, everything went dark and she fell in a heap.

Shirley dismally looked at Molly who was lying on the bed. "Richie," she said as she turned around to look at Richie who was sitting on the sofa and asked, a bit peeved, "Can you be honest to me right now? Did Brian really get amnesia?" "What do you think?" Richie said, throwing back her question to her.

"Of course not! What are you talking about?" Shirley said angrily with gritted teeth. "He loves Molly. I refuse to believe that he would forget her just like that," she said, getting angrier by the second.

"Well, you also didn't recognize me before..." Richie said slowly.

Shirley rolled her eyes and said, "Richie, we're talking about Brian and Molly now. Can you stop bringing up the past? This isn't the time or place for that!"

Richie grinned at her, got up, and pulled her over to his side. He glanced at Molly and said, "Well, we can't know for sure."

Shirley looked at Richie doubtfully. She didn't understand what he was talking about.

"Shirley," Richie looked at her and said, "Whether or not Brian really did get amnesia, I really don't think they should be together anymore."

"What do you mean?" Shirley was stunned. She was so anxious to hear what Richie was going to say that her heart was beating so rapidly.

Richie's eyes were dimmed as he spoke gently, sighing, "What happened to Wing and Brian getting amnesia now should be enough reason for them to get a divorce! If they stay together, sooner or later, something like this is going to happen again."

Shirley's heart sank when Richie mentioned Wing, "But I just want them to be happy." Even if the whole incident with Wing didn't happen now, something similar would've still happened sooner or later. We're all very aware of the situation. And because we all know that, we cherish each day we spend with her. And Brian, well, we know what he's gone through and now, he knows exactly what he wants...' Richie kept his thoughts to himself because he didn't want to worry Shirley anymore.

"But because of who Brian is, he's actually really not allowed to be with Molly." Richie said slowly, "And if Brian really did get amnesia, to be frank, I'm happy for him. At least he won't get hurt when they do divorce." But if it's not true, Brian's surely hurting right now and no one else would be able to understand what he's going through, ' but again Richie kept his thoughts to himself.

"But I stayed with you! How came they can't be together?" Shirley argued.

"Shirley, "Richie frowned and said," Molly's different from you." As strong as you are, you still suffered a lot when you were alone. And just so you could have a quiet life, I bowed out of the political game in Dragon Island. And since you know very well what kind of culture we had in XK Intelligence Agency, you developed a stronger armor which made me feel more secured because I knew you could handle yourself.'

Richie's mind was racing as he stared at Molly's pallid, tear-stained face. He sighed, 'Brian's so used to witnessing all the shady dealings in the Agency. And Molly? She's just an ordinary person. Even she comes out of this stronger, she would still be unable to protect herself on her own. So how could Brian force them to be together and put her life constantly in danger? Only when they finally let each other go can they finally live their lives as they were meant to.

An angel and a demon... Even if they were two people who were meant to meet, so what? At some point, they may have thought that they were going to stay together but they had to face the fact, they can't be together, 'Richie concluded in his mind.

At an empty room of a department of the State Parliament, there was just a long table with benches on each side in the middle. At the top of the door, there was a small window carelessly covered with a piece of paper making the room poorly-lit.

"Edgar, Grandpa never should have trusted you," Jennifer snapped. She was handcuffed as she glared at the man opposite her, breathing heavily.

Edgar's long fingers beat on the table, smirking, "I've been working with Steven ever since Johnny threatened my future at the State Parliament." He paused, an evil smile playing on his lips, and said, "Jennifer, I was forced to give up Molly because of your entire family. I fucking hate them." He narrowed his eyes as he glared at Jennifer. They were cruel and vicious like two venomous snakes.

"Ha!" Jenifer sneered and said coldly, "So are you saying that you really did all of this just for Molly?" She tensed her jaw, "Maybe, at first, it was just for her, or maybe even until later but at the end of the day, what you did was to destroy my family. When the leadership of the State Parliament was under transition, you could've entered then! Just by sheer merit of your record in A City. And you'll succeed far more than what grandpa's offered to you!"

Yet, Edgar laughed grimly and said, "Jennifer, you think everyone's the same as your family? That as long as you want something, anything can be done about it? No matter what you have to give up?" Edgar slowly shook his head as if out of disappointment or pity, "Of course you think that way. You grew up with them so I won't expect any less from you. You don't know what true love is." As he spoke, he got angrier; piercing Jennifer with his vicious, cold eyes, "Ever since I was young, I've always been fond of Molly. But then you got jealous of her and insisted that I choose you over her. Even as you got older, you carried that with you. Do you even really love me? Or can you just not accept that you lost to Molly because you think you're so much better than her?"

Jennifer's eyes furrowed at this-she was trembling with anger because she knew in her heart that he was right. He slowly leaned in his chair, "Jennifer, I gave up Molly when I chose you and Johnny that year. I gave up Molly for my political career. Five years ago, I didn't expect to run into her like that and that slightly caught me off guard," he said, looking down as if he was just talking to himself, "Luckily, I was able to keep everything on the right track by the end." He paused, looked up, and continued, "The Zeng family after all has fallen down."

"Edgar!" Jennifer barked. Ever since she was invited to the Ministry of Defense, she knew that none of her secrets could be kept they definitely knew everything. And she didn't expect to walk out from here at all. Because her grandpa taught her as a child that winners took everything and losers lost everything. But she never expected that Edgar would be the one to bring her to her failure. Yet, what he couldn't understand was that she really did love him. She fell in love with him ever since that moment she carried the box that held her father's ashes and he was there.

After Edgar left, Jennifer glanced at the photo he left her. The photo was of him wearing a military uniform and being awarded the rank of Major General.

Jennifer laughed as tears came streaming down her face. She sneered as she stared at the photo, "Edgar, fine, you've done what you came to do. You're the youngest Major General in the military region and your future looks very bright but so what? You'll live your whole life in guilt. You say you love Molly but you made a shady deal with my grandfather and gave her up. You're taking advantage of her. You are where you are now by stepping on so many people and that's who you are now. Ha-ha!" Jennifer scowled. Then, the picture fell to the ground and so did Jennifer in her own pool of blood, her eyes wide open.

Gradually, her pupils turned black.

At the Smile Hotel of A City, Brian hadn't returned to the hospital since he left the other day. He stayed at the hotel because the villa was ruined by Hannah and it's not like he had any other choice.

He was in a coma for four months so he was busy catching up with everything that had happened.

"Molly," Eric said as he watched Molly squatting in front of Brian's room and Mark standing by her side, "Do you just want to wait here?" He spoke in a disapproving voice. After all, Brian really did have a lot of catching up to do so his schedule was loaded and Eric was sure that he wouldn't come back. And it wasn't very agreeable of him to just leave Mark and Molly hanging dry like this.

Molly looked at Eric, bit her lower lip and said, "I'm going to wait for him and have a proper talk with him. I don't want a divorce. No matter what happens!" She was gripping so tightly on the divorce papers in her hand-she clenched her teeth to keep herself from crying. "It's fine, I can accept the fact that he couldn't remember me. But what about Mark?

How could he not remember Mark?"0000000
