Love Began with the First Meeting -
Chapter 907 Mol's Sweet Marriage Life (Part Five)
"I second the nomination." While nodding his head in approval, the Chief Commissioner was the first to rise to the occasion.
"I second that."
"I second that."
One after another echo of compliment came. Eric nodded and said, "Since unanimously adopted, it's settled. Chief Commissioner, I want you to show Addison around this afternoon." "Yes, sir." Standing at ease, the Chief Commissioner replied with a snappy voice.
After the ceremony, everyone had dinner together in a restaurant of the National Congress. The atmosphere at the dinner was much more casual than at the ceremony. There were still factions in the National Congress, but no one would be so silly to make trouble at the ceremony. After all, as three generations of the power gathered here, no one would ask for trouble at the big moment when the grandson of Richie, the predecessor in power, went into the National Congress.
Overwhelmed at the moment, Molly stood by Brian's side. Her eyes focused on Mark who was dealing with reporters and members of National Congress, and she suddenly asked, "What genes do you have in your family?"
"What do you mean?" Confused, Brian looked towards Molly.
"You and Wing are smart; maybe that's because your parents are smart. But why are Mark, Charlie and Evelyn also so smart?" The thought of the three children made Molly burst with joy. It was every parent's dream to see their children be outstanding among people and she was no exception.
"Well, thank God that they didn't get that from you." Looking at her wife, Brian answered in all seriousness.
Hearing his answer, Molly managed an artificial smile. With her eyes glaring at him and her teeth gnashing, she said, "I beg your pardon!"
Brian met her eyes squarely. Looking at her angry face, he said with sincerity, repeating it again, "Thank God that they didn't get that from you."
Molly responded with a grim smile. "Brian..." she said slowly and coldly. Seeing the evil smile on her face, Brian sensed trouble and got nervous. The more nervous he got, the more wicked her smile became. "I guess that you must have a lot of work to do today," Molly said with a meaningful look.
Confused at her remark, Brian didn't know what had she got up her sleeve.
"Well, Charlie and Evelyn had asked me this morning if I could sleep with them tonight," She added with a casual tone while looking at him with teasing eyes, "I think maybe I could answer them 'yes'." Upon finishing her words, she looked around. Seeing that nobody was noticing them, she lifted one foot and stomped toward Brian's.
Of course, Brian had sensed her intention and he would not give her the chance. He had read his wife's thoughts and had anticipated what she was about to do. He dodged his foot slightly, and Molly missed it, causing her feet to hit the solid floor. And she was slightly numbed with pain.
"Ah!" Not anticipating his move, Molly let out a cry of surprise, losing her balance and starting to fall. She looked scared, worried that she would fall down to the floor. Just then, Brian stretched out his long arm and held her up.
"How could you be so careless?" holding her by the waist, Brian said reproachfully.
"How can you blame me? It is all your fault." With furrowed brows, Molly snorted out a reply which sounded grumpy. The small dispute caught the eyes of those around them which embarrassed her so much, and she felt inclined to sink into the ground with shame. "It won't happen again." Showing his teeth, Brian chuckled at what she said, but the anger in Molly's eyes didn't go away. Neglecting the glances from those around them, Brian hugged her around the waist and headed for the resting area. He teased, "I'm only kidding. Why can't you take a joke?"
Frowning, Molly turned her head and looked at Brian. Of course, she knew he was only joking when he said that but Brian always had a poker face, and it was really hard to tell whether he was joking or serious. She asked, "Have you been out of conceit with me?" "Have I possibly been out of conceit with you?" Brian asked in reply.
"Yes, you have. I can see it in your eyes," Molly said irrationally.
Knowing that his explanation was useless, he followed Molly's words, "Yes, I have."
"Brian!" Molly roared out his name.
As they talked while walking, they had already entered the lounge. Brian gently helped Molly sit on a couch. Seeing the fire burning in her eyes as he bent down, he could not help laughing at her angry countenance and he said, "It is you who have given birth to my three children, and how could they only bear my genes? Whether a person is clever or not is not only judged by his knowledge and accomplishment. Understand?"
Not wanting to hear what he was saying and with a scorn in her face, Molly pretended that she didn't understand his words. She flung up her head and dived to the bottom of the subject, "So, am I smart or not?"
Shaking his head in her stubbornness, Brian smiled but he didn't answer the question. Then he turned away and left without saying a word.
Glaring at his back, Molly kept her mouth open in surprise. She yelled at his back, "Brian! Is it so difficult for you to praise me? Why are you so rude? Can't you be just romantic for once?" With that, she took her eyes off Brian in anger and murmured to herself, 'Why is it so hard to get a few sweet words coming out of your mouth?' The more she thought about it, the madder she grew. She cursed him bitterly in her heart.
With her back turned against him, Molly was whelmed in her thoughts and she didn't discover that Brian had come back. "Are you cursing me?" Brian asked. The sudden sound brought Molly out of her thoughts. She could no longer tolerate his stubbornness in ridiculing and playing jokes on her.
Obviously, she was not in the mood to bother with him, so she turned her back and did not answer him. She thought to herself, 'Although my father-in-law also wears a poker face all the time, he is obedient to mother-in-law. Why can't Brian be as nice to me as father was to mother? Where on earth does Brian inherit his haughty personality from?'
Suddenly, a low, rustling sound drew her attention. Turning her head, she beheld a scrumptious food in front of her, and joy filled her heart. She cast her eyes towards Brian delightedly when she heard him said, "Mol, all you need to know is that I love you. Perhaps I cannot satisfy your romantic dreams, but I know what's on your mind."
"I just hate it when you know my thoughts but you do nothing," said Molly with a pretentious pout. ☐☐☐☐
