Love Began with the First Meeting novel Chapter 387

Located at the boundary between A City and L City, Phoenix Mountain was more beautiful during summer. Many people often visited the mountain to climb, exercise and go for a picnic. Above anything else, it was said to be the most favorite spot for camping. Thus, it was considered to be the place where most love affairs take place in A City and L City. Even during winter, people continued to come here crazily. During such cold days, what they were here for was as clear as daylight.

Not uttering a single word, Brian continued to drive head-on while taking a glance at Molly every once in a while. Molly became more reluctant on her plans as they approached the mountain. All this time, Brian was patiently waiting for Molly to tell him the truth.

However, when they arrived at Phoenix Mountain, Molly remained silent and didn't even open her mouth. She just bit her lips hard with her hands rotating ceaselessly.

Brian stopped the car at the foot of Phoenix Mountain. With an empty face, he glanced at Molly who was staring blankly at the sight of the mountain that was in front of her. He got off the car and looked around. His eyes turned deep.

After getting off, he took out the bag that Tony sent from the back seat and opened it. He indifferently threw an outdoor jacket to Molly and slowly said, "Put it on, unless you want to be frozen to death."

Still uneasy, Molly grasped the jacket and continued to look around the somewhat desolated Phoenix Mountain from being covered with snow. While Brian was putting on his outdoor jacket, she said without any hesitation, "Bri, how about we go back?" Molly could no longer continue to pretend.

Brian slightly raised his eyebrows, while a trace of joy flashed in his eyes. But as he turned around to look at Molly, he covered his emotions and stared blankly at her to maintain his coolness. He then asked, "Why? Don't you want to climb the mountain?"

"It is getting dark," Molly said meekly. "How about… how about going back now and coming back next time?" Molly said without any hesitation. While her hands were slowly starting to freeze, all she could ever think of was how to get Brian to drive her anywhere away from the mountain.

Brian left out an evil smile. He looked at Molly with his deep eyes and saw how worried and entangled she was by her emotions. With an empty expression, Brian said indifferently, "Never mind." After saying that, he threw the bag into the car and put on his outdoor jacket. While grasping one of Molly's hands, he pulled her and walked towards Phoenix Mountain.

On the contrary, Molly was somewhat passive at the moment. As they continued to head uphill, she could feel her heart beat rising to her throat. She looked around wearily, as she didn't know why Jenifer told her to bring Brian here. All she knew was that something bad was bound to happen.

It was getting darker and darker. Due to the impact of the weather, everything was in darkness, and not a single star could be seen from the sky. Molly said, "Bri, let's go down the mountain this instant."

Brian tightened his grip on Molly's hand and said, "I am truly curious about this place and wonder why people love to camp here even during winter. And since we're already here now, it would be a pity if we would just head back half way."

The words he uttered sounded relaxed and intimate, but she felt even more distressed. The more relaxed Brian was, the more worried she was of what could possibly happen.

Perceiving Molly's uneasiness, Brian tightened his grip on her hand once again. He then wore the glasses he held in the other hand. This pair of glasses might look ordinary, but with his sculptural face, Brian looked even more handsome and scholarly.

After putting on his glasses, the darkness around Brian became more visible. He quietly looked around with his sharp eyes, just like an owl on a black night. He calmed his face and said to Molly in a low voice, "Mol, are you nervous?"

Molly's heart continued to beat crazily. She tried very hard to swallow her saliva and said, "No, not a bit!"

Hearing her reply, Brian smiled indifferently. They continued walking and he decided to take a different route. They walked into a path in the forest nearby instead of taking the main road. Puzzled by the sudden decision of Brian, Molly asked, "Why are we not taking the main road?"

"Well, do you prefer camping in an open area?" he answered. Brian seemed serious about this whole camping idea.

Upon hearing that, Molly's mouth quivered out of embarrassment. With Brian being near to her, she became more worried. She then asked for another time, "Bri, let's just go back, okay?"

At the moment, Molly forgot what Jenifer had said to her. She was only afraid that something dangerous would happen to Brian soon. Nothing else was more important than to bring Brian back to safety. That was the only thing she could think of during that time. However, it seemed like Brian was so persistent about "camping" and was not even willing to go down the mountain.

After hearing her sincere and worry-filled words, he stared at Molly and asked, "You asked me to accompany you. But now, are you just going to escape after lighting the fire?"

Those words made Molly more anxious so that she was about to burst in tears. She said without any hesitation, "Bri, I brought you here on purpose. They threatened me with Daniel's life and forced me to bring you here. Please, I beg you. Let's go back, okay?"

After hearing the truth, Brian's eyes were filled with happiness. But because it was too dark and fog covered their path, Molly didn't see his reaction. Molly's anxiety grew even more.

"Mol," Brian raised his hand and softly brushed Molly's cheeks, which was blown cold by the night wind. His fingertips were reluctant to leave her beautiful face. When yesterday he had made it clear how deeply he loved Molly, he had promised in his heart that he would continue to treat her well unless she would betray him. Different from the promise he had made to Becky, this one was rooted from his heart. He then said softly, "Now that we're here, it would be a pity if we go down now."

After saying his words, there was not enough time for Molly to think about what he meant when a faint light flashed behind Brian, speeding towards him.
