Chapter 552 Misunderstanding Hurts (Part Two)


    *


    At the hospital.


    Harrow had no idea that Brian wasing for a visit. He looked at Spark who had just woken up, and


    then at Brian. Awkwardly he said, "Mr. Brian Long..."


    Brian threw a re at him, and Harrow shut up tacitly. Brian turned to Spark who looked weak, but


    angry. Harrow sighed, then said, "I''ll go buy some fruits and water."


    Then he quickly left the room.


    Tony was waiting outside, and Harrow walked over to him. He nced at the ward once, then probed,


    "What''s Mr. Brian Long doing here?"


    "No idea," Tony''s answer was curt. Seeing Harrow''s brows knitted in worry, he coldly added, "Spark


    and Miss. Mol...Mrs. Long are just strangers now. As long as he stays away from her, Mr. Brian Long


    will do nothing to him."


    "Mr. Brian Long and Molly...


    They are getting married."


    Tony was startled, his mouth opened wide.


    "Mr. Brian Long said that it''s for Mark." "I think it''s to bind Molly to him," Tony scoffed.


    Harrow looked at Tony''s discontented look, sighed, then sat on the chair outside. Slowly Harrow said,


    "It''s for the best. Molly should be with Brian. Another man is not an option for her anymore. They


    should all let her go now."


    Tony scoffed again.


    Harrow knew that Tony was biased against Molly. After all, Mr. Brian Long had gotten himself injured


    thrice for her, and Tony cared and worshiped Brian too much to let him get injured or debase himself.


    Brian was a god-like figure to him.


    Inside the ward, the air was solemn and silent.


    "Molly... How''s she doing?" Spark asked after an extended silence.


    "Do you think that she is not doing well?" Brian quipped. At the sight of Spark''s angry look, Brian


    added, "Don''t worry. As long as she is with me, she will be well taken care of."


    Spark was also a man. He could tell that Brian really loved Molly, which just upset him even more. If


    Brian didn''t truly love her, he could have waited for her; he would have had a chance to win her over.


    But that wasn''t possible anymore. Brian loved her.


    "Brian, don''t ever let her down; don''t ever let her be lonely in the snowy streets again," Spark''s eyes


    were sad and desperate. He remembered the scene in the London subway entrance where Molly had


    been crouching like a stray cat, "She deserves better, much better."


    "I won''t let that happen. She''ll never be alone again," Brian''s tone was calm, but resolute. It was his


    promise to Spark, "I could have chosen not toe here today, yet here I am. I wanted to thank you for


    taking good care of Molly and Mark for the past four years," he paused and continued, "Molly is smart,


    but she can be stupidly stubborn. You might be aware."


    Spark smiled bitterly, but didn''t answer. He was waiting for Brian to spell out the real reason for his visit.


    "I want you to leave. Out of sight, out of mind. If you don''t show up in front of her, she won''t feel guilty


    anymore."


    "Is that so?" Spark asked, "You...You don''t quite know her."


    Brian frowned and looked darkly at Spark.


    "Molly is not a silly person. She is smarter than most girls. But her surroundings always prevent her


    from being the best. She is afraid of being harmed, so she ys dumb," Spark cast a mocking look at


    him, "Brian, you don''t know her." He looked at the wall in front of him and added, "I''ll not leave. I''ll stay


    here as her friend. I won''t leave till Molly finally finds her true happiness."


    Brian stared at Spark for a long while, then said, "Fine, suit yourself."


    With that, Brian walked out of the ward. Seeing him, Harrow and Tony hurried over to greet him. He


    turned to Harrow and ordered, "I''m going to QY Ind tomorrow. Keep an eye on things here."

    "Yes, sir," Harrow replied. He tried to restrain himself from being nosy, but decided to ask anyway, "Mr.


    Brian Long, Spark..."


    "Since he wants to stay, let him be," Brian''s tone was detached and neutral, "Hopefully, after Wing and


    Weston''s concert, he will think things through again."


    Brian threw another look at Harrow, then left with Tony.


    Harrow stared at Brian and smiled bitterly. Harrow had tried to persuade Spark, but the truth was that


    he was totally ignored by Spark even before Brian had arrived. The atmosphere was rigid even when


    Manny had gone to deal with the visa issue.


    Harrow turned around and walked into the ward. Spark was sitting up, with his back against the bed


    board, his eyes hollow. Just as Harrow opened his mouth, Spark interrupted him, "I won''t leave," he


    announced resolutely, his look bitter and sorrowful, "I just have to make sure that she is happy here. I


    want to see it with my own eyes. That''s all."


    His words filled Harrow with grief, " Spark, just give up."


    Brian directly went to the Emp from the hospital.


    After assigning some tasks to Tony, he went straight upstairs, his leather shoes ttering loudly on the


    floor. Molly was shuffling through the business books on the shelves when she heard the sound and


    turned towards the door. Hastily, she put down the book and moved to the door as Brian pushed it open


    and walked in.


    Molly stopped, then blushed as Brian stared closely at her.


    He closed the door and moved towards her. He asked gently, "You visited Daniel?"


    Molly nodded and said, "Bri..."


    "Um?"


    Molly bit her lips nervously. Ever since she had found out the truth from Eric, she was eager to meet


    him and get to the bottom of it. But now that he was in front of her, she didn''t know how to put her


    emotions into words.


    Sensing Molly''s hesitation, Brian frowned, pulled her to the sofa and asked worriedly, "Is Daniel''s rehab


    not going well?" Molly didn''t answer. He continued, "It takes time. After he gets through this phase,


    things will be fine. Letting him out now will only harm him."


    His tone might have been cold, but it warmed Molly''s heart. She looked at Brian, nose twitching bitterly,


    then choked out the word, "Sorry."


    Her actions made Brian''s heart sink. Instantly, a sense of concern swallowed him. Coldly, he warned,


    "Molly, whatever happens, don''t ever think about leaving me."


    Tearfully, Molly shook her head and asked, "You injected that drug into Daniel to save his life, didn''t


    you?"


    Brian was surprised. He wondered how Molly knew. She couldn''t suppress her tears anymore. She


    cried fiercely, "Brian, why didn''t you exin it to me? You''ve been wronged."


    Instead of replying, Brian pulled her into his arms. He slowly asked, "Exin? Even if I had exined it


    to you, would you have believed me?"


    His question made Molly''s heart ache. She had no idea what was going on between Brian and her now.


    She pushed him aside and cried, "But you should have tried to exin, or did you want me to


    misunderstand you like this forever?"


    Brian sighed and wiped her tears, his face still detached and emotionless. Heforted her gently,


    "But you know the truth now."


    "You..."


    Furious, she struck Brian''s chest. He didn''t dodge, but only held her neck and pulled her into his arms.


    Molly sobbed as she drenched in his warm hug. She was touched by his affection, but also afraid of it.


    She feared that she might end up in a more lousy ce if she lost her heart to him again.


    That was not a scenario she could afford to be in.
