Love Began with the First Meeting
Chapter 840 You Will Understand Life When You Understand Love (Part One)

"I want you in my life forever! I want you in my world forever! You're the most precious thing in my life.

You are my world."

Molly gazed at Brian for a long time. His words were like a catchy tune that stayed in your head. Her nose grew sore and tears formed in her eyes.

He almost never talked so sweetly. But why did she remember it every time he did so? How could he move her so deeply? How could he make her feel so sweet, like there was honey in her heart?.

Eric and Wing were taking a peek at the outside of the Glamour Hall. And Mark wedged his head between them. When Mark saw how the Glamour Hall had changed, his mouth opened wide. You could have fit a pigeon's egg in there.

"Well," Eric sighed while shaking his head, "Brian is not one for grand gestures. But this? This is beyond the pale!"

Wing was actually relieved. She had worried about Brian and Molly for a long time. She stroked her chest and said, "Oh wow. I thought I got it wrong. They punked me. Look at all this!"

Eric laughed heartily and looked at Wing, "Brian knew we were following him. He's not dumb. So he put on an act, and fooled all of us!" Looking around at the decorations in the yard, Eric went on, sighing, "Looks like Brian asked someone to decorate the Long Family Mansion after we took off." Good show, brother!' Eric said to himself, 'Not only did you pull off a miracle, but you scared us in the process!'

Wing was all smiling and said, "I'm so jealous. My guy doesn't have a romantic bone in his body! Molly is a lucky gal!"

"But Aunt Wing," Mark said, disagreeing. "This is all old-hat."

"..." Wing froze, with a strangely immobile smile on her face. Mark didn't notice. He was still peering around the place, still in the middle of his critique.

He pursed his lips and said, "You can see all this when you watch TV. It's nothing new..." Frowning, Mark looked at Brian, then turned to Molly and said, "But Mommy seems to like it."

Eric chimed in, "Pipe down, rugrat. Say something nice for a change." Eric gave Mark a disapproving look. "As long as it works, it doesn't matter," Eric added.

Mark just twitched his lips, and said nothing. He seemed to disagree with Eric, but finally decided to keep it to himself. After all, Mark was only a kid.

Molly was still drowning in the sea of romantic emotions that Brian had stirred up, when a strong light shone down before her. She raised her head and through her tearful eyes, she saw a white grand piano, with a bouquet of lilies. The flowers looked so beautiful in the shiny blue wrapping paper.

Tears flowed freely. Molly was deeply moved and her heart skipped a beat thinking about what Brian had done for her. Molly sniffed and gazed at Brian, doing nothing else.

Brian's lips curled and he gave her a slight smile. He put his hand on Molly's face, gently wiped her tears, and said in a soft voice, "I'll give you whatever you want. All I want is you in my life every second, every hour, and every day from now on."

Molly still said nothing, and just smiled with tears in her eyes. Though her vision was blurred by tears, she saw Brian go over to the piano and sit down. While he gazed with affection at her, Brian positioned his tapered fingers on the black-and-white keys. Brian's fingers danced on the keys, his performance flawless, his execution technically excellent. Were these hands the same ones that wielded instruments of death?

While Brian gazed at Molly emotionally, he started to sing along to the tune he was playing:

"Look into my eyes, you will see what you mean to me.

Search your heart, search your soul, And when you replace me there, You'll search no more.

Don't tell me it's not worth trying for, You can't tell me it's not worth dying for.

You know it's true.

Everything I do, I do it for you.

Look into your heart, You will replace there's nothin' there to hide.

Take me as I am, take my life.

I would give it all, I would sacrifice.

Don't tell me it's not worth fightin' for.

I can't help it, there's nothin' I want more.

You know it's true.

Everything I do, I do it for you.

There's no love like your love.

And no other could give more love.

There's nowhere unless you're there.

All the time, All the way.

Oh! You can't tell me it's not worth tryin' for. I can't help it.

There's nothin' I want more.

I would fight for you, I'd lie for you!

Walk the wire for you--I'd die for you!

You know it's true.

Oh, everything I do, I do it for you."

Brian's magnetic voice was soft and full of emotion. The words seemed to have a magic power, and each word was full of heartfelt devotion, of passionate love. Like Bryan Adams before him, Brian sang 'Everything I Do' to show his love for Molly. Molly was still in tears. She pursed her lips tightly to control her tears, but how could she stop?

Everyone in the Long Family had come to the Glamour Hall already, including Hawk Long, though no one saw him much anymore.

The song 'Everything I do' summoned memories for everyone.

Shirley looked at them with a smile. She remembered the day when she was to become the first lady, when Dragon Island became a fairy land in purple. Richie Long sang the same song for her with a bouquet in his hand. And the Official TV channel broadcast the ceremony live.

Shirley watched Brian singing, and remembered when Richie sung her for the first time. All though so many years had passed, her heart would beat faster whenever she thought about it.

"Richie," Shirley could not help but call Richie's name. She turned to Richie and held his hand.

Richie did not speak, and just folded Shirley in his arms gently. No words were needed for them at this moment.

When the last note of the music faded, he stood up and took the lilies in his hand, then walked over to Molly slowly and deliberately. He stood in front of her. In front of every member of the Long Family, Brian got down on his knee slowly.

"I won't lock you in anywhere, except in my heart, and I want the key to yours." Brian gazed Molly firmly, and his voice was magnetic and low. "I still want to hear your answer, here, in front of everyone. We both know the answer, but... Molly, will you marry me?" Although everyone knew that there was only one answer to Brian's question, but as usual when this question was asked, the tension was so thick you could cut it with a knife.

Molly smiled, but tears kept running from her eyes and she couldn't control it at all. She looked at the man on one knee. The man in front of her could die for her, could suffer everything for her. Now he was getting down on his knee for her. If she could have such a husband who loved her so much, what more would she ask for?

"I do..." Molly answered firmly. Her voice was choked with sobs.

A smile found its way onto Brian's face. He stood up and took out a red little box from his pocket and opened it slowly. To Molly's surprise, the ring with the Soul of K was in it. Brian took the ring and put it around Molly's finger and said, "My love has never changed from the very beginning... My love is bound with the Soul of K. I will protect you and your happiness with my blood forever."0000000
