Love Began with the First Meeting
Chapter 417 Parting Ways (Part One)

Five days had passed since Molly opened her eyes to see the world once more.

Standing by the window, she might as well still be blind as she stared without blinking at the snow-covered branches of the trees outside.

This morning, the sun was shining brightly.

But Molly just stood there, staring at the trees without any sign of appreciation.

It was already five days since she started seeing the world again. The eyes she had received were compatible and there didn't seem to be any side effects or rejection. It was almost as if these eyes were born for her. But still these eyes... were not her eyes. She felt strange wearing them.

Molly slowly blinked her eyes. When she first opened them five days ago, the first person she saw was Brian. She hadn't seen him for over a month. Her eyes misted as she recalled how he stood by her and held her hand while shuttling through the Phoenix Mountain. He was fearless and confident even though they were clearly outnumbered. Nobody on earth could beat his indomitable spirit. He was still the Brian who had the tyranny to take possession of her in the ward regardless of his injuries and his almost emaciated body... Once Molly could see again, Brian stopped coming to the hospital. It had been five days. However, he still managed to call the hospital every single day and inquire about Molly's progress. He knew that it was better for him not to come to the hospital. Molly asked Dr. He something about her present condition. The doctor had told her that she would be okay after today's treatment. As for the child... They would know the baby's condition only after it had taken shape.

She had been standing by the window for some time. Thinking a host of things, she needed to plan how to get away from this place. The only good thing was that she had nothing to take but herself and the baby in her stomach...

The thought of leaving Brian made her feel weak. The sadness and sorrow she felt in her heart were unbearable. Tears filled her eyes. And gradually her eyes turned red. She couldn't help but feel sad and heartbroken. For her, everything was over when Brian said, "Then change it". He agreed to give her eyes to Becky. At that moment, Molly knew that it was over between them.

'Brian Long, Becky Yan... I have paid all that I owed you. Now, I don't owe you two anything, ' Molly thought sadly.

It was extremely quiet in the ward. It was so quiet that Molly could hear the dull thudding of her heart. However, outside the quiet ward, some earth-shaking changes were taking place.

Brian had no more rights on XK Intelligence Agency which just meant that he had lost the ability to procure information in the fastest speed. In case of some current circumstance, he had trained new people who could help him get information. These people were outside XK Intelligence. These were Brian's personal arsenal. In light of the current situation, these people were beginning to be useful.

The State Parliament had issued an irrevocable order to the C Army Group to execute Molly this time without fail. But they didn't expect that the simple order would turn out to be more complex than the assassination of a head of state. For half a month, they had not even seen a shadow of Molly. She was an elusive target...

Unlike the last encirclement and suppression in Phoenix Mountain, Brian's resistance this time had become an obstacle to State Parliament. The nature of the two fights were very different. And the outcome of the fights also became different... Dragon Island, Glamour Hall.

Richie was looking tenderly at Shirley who was busy planting flowers in the newly cultivated flowerbeds at Glamour Hall. His deep eyes were full of satisfaction. How time has flown! He could still remember proposing to her in front of the media. And how she cried when she came back to the Long Family Mansion. His mind also drifted to the first time he brought her to Glamour Hall...

When Frank walked into the Glamour Hall, he saw Shirley planting flowers in the flowerbeds. Seeing Shirley always made him reminisce about the past. He laughed softly to himself and then quickly withdrew from the emotions that rushed up. He walked towards Richie, whose eyes were still fixed on his wife.

"Richie," Frank greeted, taking a seat beside Richie. Then he continued, "Just as you said, Brian was pretty angry this time."

"He is constantly making State Parliament feel pressure," Richie said. He withdrew his gaze from Shirley and continued, "Brian still didn't know how to tone down his actions... Did he think he could protect Molly by doing that all the time?"

Frank just smiled and said, "He could. It depends on whether you are willing to..."

Richie's eyes turned dark. He said coldly, "Eric might also be glad to see that. Those two are really troublesome."

Shrugging his shoulders nonchalantly, Frank looked at Richie thoughtfully. Maybe it was because they grew up with different backgrounds that their expectations on their children were also different. "Brian's ability is not inferior to yours. He has his own power. I think we're underestimating him... I'm afraid that soon the State Parliament will be after us."

This time State Parliament must be afraid of Brian. A man who was not afraid to lose his life in protecting his woman was a force to be reckoned with. The C Army Group didn't even manage to touch the gate of the hospital this time. How could they kill Molly? Brian didn't care about offending the State Parliament. He was also unconcerned about the political interest between the State Parliament and Dragon Island. However, it was not good that he didn't keep the face for the State Parliament on the international front.

"It is always harmful to keep Molly here..." Richie said. Suddenly, he got up to walk towards Shirley. Frank didn't notice that anything was amiss at the beginning. But Richie who had been watching his wife surreptitiously saw that she got hurt in the hand by the small shovel while planting.

Looking at the happy couple in front of him, Frank just smiled and didn't bother to investigate Shirley's injury. Outwardly he was smiling, but deep inside there was a sour feeling in his heart... but only he knew it.

Just as Frank had predicted, the people in State Parliament were indeed looking for them, and they found them quickly. It was Mr. Deng again. He came to the Dragon Island himself. Richie and Frank met him at the National Congress. There was only a few meaningful information exchanged between the three people. Mr. Deng was evidently upset by the way he spoke as he was the one who tasked with dealing with the problem. He had to consider the political friendship between State Parliament and Dragon Island. He could take neither an uncooperative instance nor show a weak attitude. D☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
