Love Began with the First Meeting novel Chapter 385

Upon saying her last few words, Becky could no longer stop her tears from falling and started to cry her heart out. Her vacant eyes looked even more sorrowful.

"Becky, listen to me," Brian said in a comforting tone. Brian stood up and squinted slightly. He looked at her with his deep eyes and said in a cold tone, "You mustn't go anywhere until you get your eyes fixed. You are not allowed to go anywhere without me. Got it?"

After saying his words angrily, he walked past Becky and left the room with a complex expression on his sculptural face. As his hands touched the doorknob, he heard Becky's faint voice from behind. She sounded so heartbreaking and desperate.

"Bri, aren't you a bit too cruel to me?" Becky asked with tears streaming down her face. The pain she was feeling could no longer be hidden. Despite being in tears, Becky let out a laugh filled with mockery. "I clearly heard what Elias said. If I can't find a suitable donor for my retinas, something more complicated and dreadful will happen. Worst, I will never be able to see. So now, tell me. Tell why should I not leave?" Becky said. "I am no longer of any use to you now. Will you just let me live here and slowly watch your heart wither away from me?" she further added in hopes to let him understand how she felt. "Be honest with me, are you punishing me for keeping a lukewarm relationship with you for all these years?" her words pierced in Brian's heart like a stab of a knife.

Upon hearing that, Brian tightened his grip on the doorknob so that his strength let out a sound. Becky's words sounded like she was digging her own pain, but all of them directed to his aching heart. For so many years, she had been the only woman he had ever loved so dearly. He had even once sworn to love and pamper her for the rest of their lives. But now...

"If by chance you'll never be able to see again all your life," Brian said calmly without any expression on his face, and continued, "I'll accompany you. I'll be your eyes for the rest of my life!"

After giving his words of promise, Brian pulled the door and left the ward. Becky could only hear the loud sounds of the door abruptly closing and Brian's footsteps slowly fading.

The sadness on Becky's face gradually disappeared and was replaced by worries as a result of letting out the anger and fury in her heart. She folded her hands tightly into a fist, gritted her teeth and mumbled to herself, "Ruby Yan, not only will I get your retinas, but I will take everything away from you! This is the price that you and your mother have to pay for stealing the happiness from me and my mother!" Becky swore to herself like this.

Brian went directly to Molly's ward after getting out of Becky's. However, Molly was nowhere to be seen.

Worried, he took out his mobile phone and dialed Molly's number. He didn't immediately realize that Molly had broken her phone in front of him until he heard the sweet yet mechanical prompt tone, "The number you dialed can't be reached."

With his face starting to turn gloomy, he turned around and entered the elevator. He pressed the key heading to the ground floor level. As soon as the elevator stopped, he immediately stepped out of the elevator and walked out of the hospital. After a few strides, Brian suddenly stopped as he looked to the right and saw a familiar petite figure sitting on a bench at the small garden. The familiar face was looking ahead blankly and thinking of something.

A cold wind blew at Brian's face. He took a slight frown while looking at Molly's perplexed face. He slowly approached her, but Molly didn't show any reaction even when he was already standing in front of her.

"It's so cold outside. Why are you sitting here?" Brian gathered the strength to finish his words despite the cold weather. Despite the cold weather, Molly's reaction was even colder. Brian's voice sounded hoarse from the cold.

Upon hearing a voice, Molly shook her body out of instinct and searched for its source. She raised her head and stared blankly at Brian's sculptural face before asking, "Why are you here?"

After hearing that, Brian pulled a long face and asked her in reply in a sarcastic tone, "Well, can't I come here?"

Molly tightened her lips. Her tangled emotions that she had kept almost made her heart explode after seeing Brian. As time went by, her suffering was growing every second and every minute. On one hand, she was worried about Daniel. While on the other hand, she didn't want Brian to go there.

Brian easily felt that Molly was absent-minded. He looked worriedly at her freezing hands slowly turning red from the cold. He grasped her and pulled her towards the parking area without saying a word. Molly did not resist. As soon as her hand was held into his big hand, the touch of warmth passed to her heart. For every step they took, her heart sank continuously.

Upon reaching the car, Brian coldly threw Molly into the car and started the engine. They soon left the hospital.

Not being able to knock out of her own anxiety, Molly remained not quite herself until they were quite far away from the hospital. "Where… where are we going?" she asked with a puzzled face.

"I'm sending you back to the villa," Brian said coldly. "Wing might have been bored for being alone!" he added.

"What about you?" Molly replied. "Where are you heading after?" as soon as she let out her words, she immediately regretted asking her questions.

Brian took a glance at Molly and saw that she turned her face away from him nervously. With an almost invisible smile at the corner of his mouth, he said, "I have something else to do!"

Molly did not expect that Brian would answer her question. She turned her head towards him and looked at him. She was hesitant to speak and was pushing and pulling threads for several times before finally giving up. She dropped her shoulder and sat on the seat limply, with her fingers rotating ceaselessly. She did not know what to do.

Brian looked at Molly with his sharp eyes. Her expressions betrayed herself. While withdrawing his sight ahead, he said slowly, "You don't want to go back to the villa, do you?"
