Chapter 44 Inexplicable Sympathy
"You.....what are you doing!" Molly shouted in outrage at Brian as she closed her lips tightly. Whatever
was happening was beyond her expectations and she had no spontaneous idea about how to react.
"Molly, is this the way to behave with me? Do you know how much I''ve taken care of you these two
days? This is not the right behavior for themb I require."Clearly, he wasn''t angry with her reaction at
all. Instead, his tone indicated dalliance and happiness.
He was looking at her deeply, as if he wanted to discover why she was so interesting and attractive.
Molly was also looking at him, and discovered that there was a slight smile on his attractive face in
spite of the coldness he pretended to have.
She looked at him, surveying him up and down, trying to figure out what he was thinking. But no matter
how hard she tried, the mystery was iprehensible to her. Controlling her temper, she asked
directly," Are you mental or something? Do you have some disease or disorder like split personality?"
The question arose because the man had showed a highly vtile nature in just a few days.
Sometimes he would be violent and cruel, and sometimes gentle and tender. It was like... you could
never trulyprehend this man or understand his character. The mystery was, sometimes he acted
like a desert whose boundaries could not be seen, and sometimes, like a vast ocean with all those
underwater secrets and undercurrents one could not observe.
"What do you think?" The question itself brought another one on her.
To Brian, making fun of Molly was an interesting pastime, and gave him a lot of pleasure.He had been
a bit upset and angry just now due to some other matters. But Molly''s question had made himugh
under the table and he felt much better. The annoying matters from a few minutes ago now felt like a
piece of cake.
Molly looked at him cautiously, thinking twice, thrice, or many times before saying," How about you
giving me a small hint next time when you are in a bad mood? So I can behave properly."
Sneering on her request, Brian asked curiously," And what would you do after such a hint?"
Although his words were peaceful, Molly sensed that if she didn''t give the right reply, he was sure to get
enraged and she had to bear the consequences.
"In the beginning, we met by ident. But now, I want to get along with you for as long as I am here.
Anyway, you have helped me a lot and I appreciate that. The world is usually unfair, but I think we need
to think fairly in this case. Since you''ve helped me, I should pay you back with what you want."
She had only nned on saying something nice to butter him up but when she opened her mouth, all
her emotions and thoughts flowed freely from the heart. Leaning against the backrest, she closed her
eyes to prevent her tears from bursting out. Her face was pale and helpless as she continued," Brian
Long, I don''t know how powerful or omnipotent you are. I am just an ordinary low-life girl, who can
barely survive and has a hard life. I could never pursue what I desired or wanted."
He stared at her in silence. There was a mixed feeling arising in his heart, as he finally saw her genuine
thoughts, which were filled with fear.
Giving a bitter smile, which made her dry lips crack, she said," These days, I''ve been thinking about
why you want me as your woman. Is it really because of what happened that night? I mean a man as
wealthy and powerful as you is sure to have an assortment of women avable anywhere, anytime. But
you chose me!"
The doubt and anger in her voice were increasing uncontrobly. When her eyes met his coincidentally,
she saw they were stark ck but calm and silent like a peacefulke. Like an elegant gentleman, he
was carefully listening to her with tenderness and seriousness.
She continued saying," You must have your own intention for selecting me as your woman. I don''t
know what your purpose is, but I have a feeling that you treat me kindly not because I am your woman
but because you have some ulterior motive."
She panted as she had said it all in one breath, and also, she had been sleeping the whole time for the
last two days due to high fever and was yet to recover. After trying to recover her inmed throat, she
continued," Nevertheless, I am not interested in your purpose. All I know is that I owe you 200
thousand dors, so whatever you want me to do this month..."
She bit her lips, lowered his eyes as though she had finally given up, and said softly," I will do my best
to fulfill your wishes. No matter what you want me to do!"
Suddenly she flushed as though it had taken all her strength to speak.
All of a sudden, Brian reached out his arm and held her close to his chest. He wanted to soothe her but
Molly became stiff in his long arms, which made him frown. Both her reluctance and his own reaction
were confusing to Brian.
He wasn''t a sympathetic person and rarely ever embraced others. But Molly had be an exception.
He had chosen her merely to enrage Becky, but now, it seemed things had changed totally beyond his
imagination.He had no idea why he sympathized with her. Was it because her heartfeltmunication
had made him feel sorry for her?
The thought of such an emotion made him angry and his face slowly started regaining its coldness and
indifference. Suddenly, he shoved Molly so fast she could not react to his sudden change. Then
standing up hurriedly, he left the room.
While leaving, he mmed the door hard. Molly looked at it in confusion. She had no idea what had
happened to him and mumbled to herself," That guy sure has a mental disease. Ten to one it isExclusive ? material by N?(/v)elDrama.Org.
schizophrenia!"
As Brian went downstairs, he saw Tonying from outside, who wanted to greet him. Tony saw that
Brian was enraged and upset and he had no idea why.
Before he could speak, Brain indifferently warned him, putting a hand in his jeans pocket," Don''t follow
me!"
He went to the parking area, and started the engine in his car. Shifting the gear quickly into drive, he
drove away rapidly.
As his car was about to leave, a man''s face showed up from the back of the tree, which was so thick
that it would have taken three people topletely give it a hug. The man had witnessed what had
happened outside the vi, and it had given him a gloomy smile and satisfaction.
