Brian's dark eyes slightly narrowed, glittering with anger.
However, Molly just felt very tired!
She was very nervous yesterday. Even though she could get some sleep later, she was unable to relax.
She had just curled up in a corner and suffered nightmares until Brian had found her.
At the moment, she was in Brian's villa and the familiar environment, breath and smell were making her
feel slightly at ease. So she had fallen fast asleep. Since Brian had suddenly lifted her out of water, she
was so cold that she had been rubbing against him instinctively.
Brian glanced at her with a morose expression in his eyes.
"Hm... I'm cold..." Molly uttered in a low voice with dry lips. Then she rubbed against his chest once
again.
Brian stared straight at her wet body. Her large breasts kept pressing against his chest as she got
closer to him. The continuous rubbing slowly made him feel aroused.
Brian slightly furrowed his eyebrows and seized a bath towel to wipe her body. Then he went out of the
bathroom with her in his arms and put her on the bed.
"Hm..." Molly let out a pitiful groan again. She grasped Brian's clothes more tightly, not releasing it from
her grip.
"Take your hand off my clothes!" Brian slightly frowned, but she held his clothes even more firmly. With
his clothes getting wet, he stared at her. She abruptly furrowed her eyebrows and her lips also trembled
as if she was scared that he might leave her.
For some unknown reason, Brian felt happy about this. His mouth even twisted in a slight smile. He
then gently bent over and slid his finger across Molly's trembling lips. To his surprise, her lips gradually
stopped trembling and she even slowly loosened her grip on him. However, she continued frowning.
While Brian was gazing at her, there was a touch of sadness in his eyes.
Brian slowly let her go from his arms and was just about to leave the room when she muttered," Don't
leave me alone. Don't..."
Brian stopped in his tracks and stared at her who kept knitting her brows. Finally, he took off his wet
clothes, lay in the bed and held her in his arms.
Again feeling the warmth against him, Molly rubbed herself against him. Brian felt sorry for her and had
a sudden impulse to take good care of her from now on.
Brian looked down at Molly and found that she had stopped frowning and was wearing a pacified smile,
like a baby who had gotten her favorite teddy bear. Brian was infatuated with her attractive smile at that
moment.
He hadn't slept last night. After coming back, he had stayed in his study the whole night, stood in front
of the window and gazed outside until Eric had arrived at dawn. He wasn't sleepy, and the bad weather
was making him feel even more morose.
He hadn't gone to pick up Shirley and Molly since he knew that Richie, who was in A City at the
moment, would surely bring them back. He wondered who Mr. Shen was.
He held Molly more tightly but she gave a low moan and he loosened his grip. After seeing her fall
asleep again, he still remained absorbed in his own thoughts.
All these days, Mr. Shen had always made concessions to him. Even if he had done something to
provoke him and even killed Tyler, Mr. Shen had never taken any actions against him.
Edgar wanted to stir up conflict between Brian and the Sacred Domain, but Brian hadn't stopped him
from doing that. He just despised Edgar, and he liked the exciting game, since he felt that his life was
too boring now.
However, Mr. Shen pretended not to know what was happening. Even though a rumour had spread that
he was afraid of Brian, he remained indifferent to it.
Brian was more and more curious about Mr. Shen. He once speculated that he might have a special
relationship with his family because if Mr. Shen, who was a powerful man in A City, had been running
his business for many years and had nothing to do with Brian's family, he would not have tolerated
Brian's aggressive behavior
or made concessions!
Brian slightly blinked his eyes, his mouth twisting in a contemptuous sneer.
He hadn't expected that Mr. Shen could have a close relationship with Shirley.
Brian never saw Richie pull a long face and look so pensive like that before. Richie wasn't jealous of
Mr. Shen, but instead he hated himself.
He thought that he was not good enough to protect his wife. Also, no man could tolerate the fact that
when his woman was in a dangerous situation, another man was willing to protect her, while he didn't
stay by her side.
While thinking about this, Brian suddenly frowned because he noticed Molly's heavy breathing which
made him a bit shocked.
"Bri..." Suddenly, Molly gently called his name. "Help me..."
Brian furrowed his eyebrows more tightly. He put aside his thoughts and pressed his chin against
Molly's forehead, whispering," Don't be scared. It's just a dream..."
His low voice sounded a bit awkward, but his words made Molly become calm and quiet. She fell
asleep in his arms again, and moved closer to him.
Brian felt restless and anxious again. He really disliked these feelings and they disgusted him. He
seemed to have them so often lately just because of Molly.
Since he felt more and more morose, he tried to get rid of such annoying thoughts. He wanted to
release Molly from his arms, but when he had moved a little bit just now, she had begun to become
restless. At the thought of this, he had to hold her in his arms and sleep together with her.
Tony kept waiting for Brian downstairs. The minutes ticked past, but he still didn't come out. He had
been in Molly's bedroom for two hours. Tony got impatient and frowned, raising his head to look
towards the room located on the second floor.
Right then, his phone rang. He drew his gaze away and answered the phone. Before Harrow, who was
calling him, got any chance to speak, he said," Mr. Long can't go there now!"
"Hm?" Harrow was stunned by Tony's words. "Who'll help him control the share price and market index
today?"
Tony also furrowed his eyebrows and then looked towards Molly's bedroom again. "I'm afraid that if you
wait for Mr. Long, the best chances will be missed."
Harrow knitted his brows while looking at the stock market index.
Brian never delayed his work because of any woman. Even when Becky was staying with him, he had
always given his priority to his work. Today's stock market index was so complicated that he couldn't
have made any changes or adjustments to it. If he made a mistake, it would cause turmoil in the stock
market. And they would have to spend a heck of a lot of energy trying to clean up the mess.
