Love Began with the First Meeting

Chapter 586 The Return Flight (Part One)

At least once in our lives, we meet that someone who will make us forget about ourselves, selflessly, without caring what may happen in the future, without hoping that you can be together, without expecting that he can be yours, and even without wishing for him to love you back. What we want is only to meet him, to love him, to get hurt, to miss him, to be stupid, in the best years of our lives...

Molly shook her head slightly. Looking somewhat distressed, she lowered her eyes and said, "I'm not sure, maybe... In fact, he treats me very well. In the beginning though, our relationship was mixed with so many issues that cannot just be ignored. Therefore, even though he's treating me so well, even though I'm trying my best to accept him, I'm still afraid somehow." She raised her eyes to look at Ximena, "Can you understand what I'm saying? He is always by my side, but because of the gap between us, plus the fact that I had to compromise, I've always felt that I'm in the shadow of something. I want to get out of it, but I always fail."

Hearing that, Ximena suddenly smiled with bitterness, her slender fingers gently stroking the cup and her eyes looked down at the black tea in the cup. After quite a while, she said slowly, "Perhaps love is not as simple as we think it is. There may really be no distinct boundary between love and not love. That's why we're always swayed by consideration of gain and loss." She raised her eyes slowly. Her eyes were shining with a smile that looked like self-mockery, and after a pause, she continued, "Or maybe, love only exists in our fantasy. Perhaps we've never loved or been loved at all."

Looking at Ximena, Molly slightly frowned, as she felt like Ximena was talking about herself, wasn't she?

Seeing that Molly's originally clear eyes seemed confused all of a sudden, Ximena could not help but smile. She said, "Well, everybody can see that Mr. Brian Long treats you very well. Where ignorance is bliss, 'tis folly to be wise. Let's just enjoy what we have now and stop thinking nonsense," she saidContent © NôvelDrama.Org.

while picking up the cup. "Why do you have to worry about troubles that may not come? It's okay to be happy at present..."

Hearing what Ximena said, Molly smiled too. She liked the big-hearted and broad-minded Ximena very much, who lived her life well even though she was unhappy. She was so different from Molly, who was always immersed in something. Maybe everybody had different life experiences, but God distributes it equally to everyone. It was always up to oneself to keep holding to it or move on.

Molly decided to stop thinking about anything she was unable to understand. Instead, she just let the time pass by talking with Ximena. As they continued to tell their stories, Ximena learned that Molly got together with Brian because of her father's gambling debt. Molly, on the other hand, learned that Ximena and Aaron began with a "romantic encounter". But it was not until later that she found out that it was only because she had been keeping the jade seal of the Leng Family. It seemed that once love began for a reason that involved an intent to benefit or gain something, both parties would eventually end up have a wound that could not be healed in their hearts. Was it true?

Both women kept chatting until it was very late, but Brian and Aaron still weren't able to finish what they were doing. Obviously it was complicated, and Brian's men in QY Island were mostly sent out already. Brian decided that Molly should just stay at Aaron's villa. He had come up with the decision upon considering three things. First, her safety could be assured; second, Brian needed not to divert his attention to her, thus he could focus on what he should deal with; and third, with Ximena to accompany her, Molly might stop thinking about nonsense things.

Three days had passed in an instant. Neither Molly nor Ximena had seen Brian or Aaron in those three days. Brian did not contact Molly except for a call before she got to bed every evening. If he wasn't able to call her, he would send a short message instead, in order to help her fell asleep peacefully after being worried the whole day.

One morning, Molly and Ximena were having breakfast under the sunshade on the lawn of the villa. It seemed that Ximena had been used to Aaron's absence, while Molly still felt quite uncomfortable, not quite used to Brian's absence because he had been with her everyday before. However, what she was more afraid of was that the incident at the amusement park had not been solved. She had kept an eye on the news report for the last few days, but to her surprise, there was no news released about the incident at the amusement park. Molly was not a fool. Of course she knew that it was well concealed, and she knew quite well who had such power to do this in QY Island.

"Are you thinking of Mr. Brian Long?" Ximena asked with a smile.

Molly sighed slightly and then smiled bitterly.

Looking at Molly with a tinge of envy deep in her eyes, Ximena said softly, "I don't think there is anything that could not be done by Aaron and Mr. Brian Long together."

She knew that Aaron was ruthless, while Brian might be equally as savage as him. The two working together should send those people who had provoked them into hiding.

Just as Ximena had expected, in just three days, all those people involved in placing those bombs in the amusement park, as well as those snipers, failed to leave the island. Each one of them faced a tragic ending that anybody at their feet would rather wish to die right away.

"In fact, it doesn't matter to me whether you speak or not," Brian said plainly without any emotion in his voice, while sitting in front of their captives and looking at the bodies of badly mutilated people in front of him. "But what I just can't stand is anybody daring to show superiority in front of me."

After saying that, Tony gave a hint, then the two men in black dragged and bound one of the men onto a chair. Before the man could even think of what was about to happen, Tony kicked the man together with the chair, and in a second, the man's head was touching the ground.

"I'm giving you one more chance," Brian said in an apathetic voice.

Blood was all over the man's face as he snorted from his throat. Brian squinted slightly with his falcon eyes, from which two tinges of cold and cruel light came out. He said slowly, "I wonder how many means of FBI confession extortion you can stand."

As soon as he finished saying that, a bucket of water was poured fiercely to the man's face, with water rushing into his nose and mouth, and even eyes. All of a sudden, he lost his breath and seemed choked to death and he kept coughing with all his strength. However, since he was upside down, the more he coughed, the more fiercely he was choked, feeling ten times worse than a pepper spray irritating the throat by accident.
