Love Began with the First Meeting novel Chapter 272

"Shit! Are you blind?" The bulky man yelled at Molly as he was already in a bad mood.

Molly immediately bowed and scraped for him, nodding apologetically.

The man got more furious when she didn't properly apologize. He roared,"Don't you have a fucking tongue? Can't you even say that you're sorry?"

Molly bit her lower lip bitterly. She could do nothing but bow in front of him.

Seeing this, the man grew more irritated. He pounded on the gambling table with his heavy hand. 'Bang!' The sound drew everyone's attention to the table.

"Speak! Stop playing dumb!" The man pointed at Molly's forehead with his bulky finger. And his face became red with rage.

Molly felt a pain in her forehead where he poked her. Even though she nodded apologetically again, it seemed that the man was in no mood to let her go.

The scene had attracted many gamblers to their table. Although such things happened frequently at the casino, many people found delight in watching the show.

"I'm sorry, sir!" The leader of the main hall had just received the order from Jason who was watching the scene where Molly was being bullied. He hurried over to her. He caught a glimpse of her secretly and said to the man,"Sir, I am very sorry about the bad experience you've had here. The little girl can't speak. In order to express our sincere apology, we have prepared ten thousand chips for you. We hope that you can forgive her and enjoy yourself."

"What the fuck! I don't want your ten thousand chips! Do you know how much this suit is worth?" the man roared. He hadn't expected that the foreman would give him compensation to make him shut up. He was even madder now. He sneered and said,"This is a joke. The Grand Night Casino, such a big casino would hire a dumb woman to be a waitress. She has made a mistake and you are trying to shield her. Bah! I insist that she make a verbal apology to me right now!"

Molly's lips trembled. She was unable to speak out even a single word. She could only droop her head sadly and hold the tray in her hands tightly. Even though she was extremely embarrassed, she didn't run away.

The foreman glanced at Molly again. Although he didn't know about the special relationship between Molly and Brian, since the manager had ordered, he tried again to smooth the matter over. He said,"Don't you think your requirement is impossible for her, sir?"

"So what?" the man sneered.

"Sir, let's move somewhere else so that we don't bother the other guests. We can come to a satisfactory solution," the foreman said. But the bulky man did not budge,"No way!" The bulky man thought that he had gained the upper hand. So he got even more aggressive,"She must apologize to me in words here."

The foreman frowned. For such customers, who made trouble out of nothing, he would usually have the bouncers throw them out of the casino and then give them a good dressing down. No one could make trouble in the Grand Night Casino. However, Molly was someone whom Jason had personally informed him to take good care of. If he didn't handle this matter well, how could he explain himself to Jason?

Molly gripped the tray even tighter. She made a low bow, hoping the matter wouldn't get worse. Anyway, she was just a nobody. No one would care about her even if she sprawled on the floor begging.

Molly had done so much, but the man still refused to give way. The foreman stepped aside and reported the current situation to Jason. Jason pondered for a while, then issued an order.

After he had received Jason's order, the foreman walked in front of the man and said coldly,"On behalf of the Grand Night Casino, I apologize to you, Sir!" His voice was much steadier than before.

He took the name of the Grand Night Casino! Most of the people in the main hall were stunned. The frequent visitors of the Grand Night Casino were all aware of what it meant. The matter was not just concerning the attendant anymore, but the Grand Night Casino itself was involved.

The bulky man was also a frequent visit to the Grand Night Casino. Of course, he understood the meaning of the foreman's words. If he insisted on troubling her, he would make enemies out of the Grand Night Casino. He was just in a bad mood because he had lost money. And he had thought that he might get more compensation if he pounced on her. But now, it was clear that his expectations had come to naught. He bristled with anger, gritting his teeth and looked down at Molly, who was still bowing with the tray in her hand. To vent his rage, he picked up a glass of wine from the tray and poured it over Molly's head before anyone could react. And then he threw the glass onto the tray and said arrogantly,"I'll let her go as a favor to the Grand Night Casino."

Molly did not move. The wine ran down her forehead and wet her eyelashes. The lashes fluttered to keep her tears from dropping. Her hands clasped the tray, even as her knuckles turned ghastly pale.

The foreman looked at Molly and heaved a sigh. He told the person next to him to take Molly away to tidy herself up, and then he said to Molly,"You may get off work early today."

Molly took a deep breath and tried to pull on a fake smile. But she couldn't and finally gave up. She nodded at him and walked towards the dressing room.

The little performance didn't cause any more trouble. With the departure of that bulky man and Molly, the main hall became clamored again as if nothing had happened. Everything went on just as usual. Eric was standing at the entrance to the main hall. He had witnessed the whole incident. When he saw the man spill wine over Molly's head, he resisted the urge to chop off his hand.

Eric squinted slightly with a stern look which gave off a formidable aura. His lips curved into a dangerous smirk. Anyone would shake in fear if they saw Eric the way he was now.

Eric looked towards the direction in which Molly had left. After assuring that she was safe, he turned and walked out of the Grand Night Casino. As he left, he pulled out his phone.
