Love Began with the First Meeting novel Chapter 265

Brian suddenly frowned tightly. He stopped his work at hand immediately and looked at Tony. Tony nodded to confirm his words, which made Brian frown even more deeply.

"What shall we do next, Mr. Brian Long?" Tony asked. Brian Long had already anticipated what Justin might do and had planned to address the problem at once. However, things would be different should Mr. Eric Long get involved. Brian had to consider and think whether his move would be too aggressive since getting Eric involved meant getting Dragon Island involved. But he would never allow anything to interrupt the business of Dragon Island.

"We have to stop it for now," Brian said distantly. There was no emotion shown on his cool face at all. He cast a sidelong look at Tony who was about to say something yet refrained it and then lowered his head to concentrate on his work. Finally, he raised his head when he finished all the papers and said slowly,"Tell Vincent to give absolute authority to the special soldiers. I don't like it when things are delayed."

"Yes," Tony replied firmly and then left.

After Tony left the room, Brian took out his phone and dialed. He spoke fluently when the phone was answered by someone,"Sam, this is Emperor."

"Hello, Emperor," Sam replied in a low voice then continued,"I heard from my secretary that you have called me many times!"

"Yes, I did." Brian leaned against the back of his chair slowly. He knocked at the desk with his long fingers and said,"I'm still trying this time."

"You made it! How could someone like you who are in high standing in the society be so interested in me, a doctor who's already had his license revoked?" Sam teased.

"I don't mind it whether you have a license or not. I don't consider that important," Brian's voice sounded indifferent and calm. "I only care about those who are useful to me. I would not save my sincerity even for a beggar."

Sam was obviously thrilled to hear that. However, he kept his happiness inside his heart deliberately and pretended that he was not moved at all. He asked in a seemingly distant tone,"So, what can I do for you?"

"I have a very important friend who is unable to speak since someone has drugged her…" Brian emphasized the words "very important" when he said it deliberately and then stopped, waiting for Sam's response.

Sam was not a fool and he knew what Brian meant, of course. He smiled coldly and mocked,"That kind of drug is developed and made by those brazen guys. They didn't research on it to contribute but to take advantage of it illegally. The compositions are quite pungent. Since there is nobody seeking for the antidote, no one has ever made any research on it so far either."

"That's why I am calling you!" Brian did not take Sam's words seriously and merely restated his reason for calling him. He said domineeringly,"You can ask anything you like from me. The only thing you have to do is to make her be able to speak!"

Sam was silent for a while. He did not expect that Brian would be so aggressive even when he was talking to him through the phone. He felt so stressed while Brian was speaking to him that he almost forgot to breathe. He swallowed a bit and then replied,"I need a fully-equipped research laboratory."

"Okay! Someone will discuss it with you later," Brian promised briefly without hesitation.

"Do you know what I mean by a fully-equipped laboratory?" Sam asked in uncertainty. His doctor's license was revoked because of one failure in the past, and thus he was piped off from the medical field afterwards. Time flew fast and it had been already almost seven or eight years. He was once called a wizard in the medical field, but now he was almost completely forgotten by most people. Nowadays, it was very seldom to hear his name compared to his colleagues who are now very successful in their respective medical fields. Therefore, nobody was willing to provide fund for him to make any researches. He had no reputation and no license, after all.

"I'll provide everything you need no matter what you mean by that!" Brian's cold voice still remained calm and distant. However, Sam trusted him and even he himself had no idea why. Brian continued speaking before Sam could gather his thoughts,"But I have to remind you of this; if you can't make her speak, there will be consequences. You wouldn't want to know what they would be because they are going to be worse than death. And by the way, I never make a joke with people who are not my friends and apparently, you are not my friend."

Sam could not help but tremble in his heart. He suddenly shivered and looked around with the phone still in his hand. He felt that the air suddenly froze, which made him difficult to breathe. He swallowed with difficulty and said,"I'll definitely work out the antidote, and I can promise you now."

"Yes. Aside from that, I don't want the antidote to harm her body," Brian warned.

"Ok!" Sam answered in a happy tone. The moment he made the reply, the dial tone went busy afterwards. He always considered himself to be a talent. Now he could not help but feel upset because of Brian's arrogance. There was nothing he could do but curse a bit secretly. Suddenly, the phone rang again. He rolled his eyes and answered the phone,"Hello, this is Sam."

"Emperor asked me to discuss with you about the laboratory," the voice on the other end of the line said.

Sam opened his eyes wide in surprise. He never expected that Brian would act so quickly.

It was getting dark. Brian pressed his eyebrows. He felt a bit tired now because he did not sleep last night. Plus, he was dealing with all his works from different departments. It was almost dark when he called Sam.

"Knock, knock!" Someone was knocking at the door.

"Come in," Brian replied.

Lisa opened the door and walked in then said,"The dinner is ready, Mr. Brian Long."

"Okay," Brian responded briefly. After Lisa went out, he took a glance at the stock chart of M Country on his computer and then walked out of the office.

A variety of delicious dishes were served on the dining table. Brian sat in his seat and ate quietly. Somehow, these dishes which usually tasted delicious seemed to have lost the flavor now. He could not feel how tasty they were at all right now. Brian frowned slightly and unconsciously, looked into the seat where Molly sat in last night. He stared at the seat, seemingly lost in his mind. He even imagined seeing Molly passing the bowl to him.

He frowned deeper. He tore his gaze from that direction distantly, his face full of coldness. He moved his bowl a bit and suddenly felt like he lost his appetite. Finally, he put the bowl down, took his coat and walked out of the villa.

Seeing the disappearing figure and looking back at the food on the table which were rarely eaten, Lisa sighed slightly.
