"Well If you're speculating about my identity, instead why don't you think about how to deal with the old

goats?" Brian said in a confident tone with disdain. Emp Exchange and Casino were generally the two

places where most people indulged in luxury pursuits. Without immense influence and powerful

positions in the society, no one could run these places well and also draw out profits.

"It may seem like... I obviously do overthink matters." Aaron smiled and seemed to have a moment of

indulging in self-pity. However, within a few moments, after hearing what Eric had to say he turned his

gaze to smile at Molly, recollected himself, and said," If you need anything, just let me know, Mr. Brian

Long."

"No, you can relax as I assure you that I need nothing from you," answered Brian straightforwardly. "I'm

leaving QY Island this afternoon."

"Well what's the rush?" asked Aaron curiously. His eyebrows were knitted.

Brian heaved a sigh of relief and answered in a soft tone," My people will be responsible for building

the Casino. If it's done, I hope that you know how to handle and manage those old goats tactfully."

Aaron raised his eyebrows and smiled at Brian's remarks. "Mister, you may consider it done."

Brian did not speak any further as he stood up and walked right towards Molly.

Ken looked at Brian's receding figure. Also after getting annoyed with Brian's unwarranted arrogance,

he said to Aaron," Your Highness, clearly he has gone too far and handled matters rather arrogantly."

Aaron's mouth moved into a frown with his lips tilted slightly at the corners. He rolled his eyes and said

profoundly," Mark my words: He has the right to be as arrogant as he wants to be. I'll be seriously

harmed and fooled if I do anything to make him my enemy. He's too dangerous for us to fight and deal

with, so just buck up and deal with it. This being the case, I prefer to be on his good side as a friend."

Ken was confused by Aaron's observation. However, he respected his master without a wavering doubt

and would do whatever his master ordered him to do, no questions asked. Since his master thought

highly of Mr. Brian Long, he would not say anything further.

Aaron stood up and walked right out of the restaurant. However, he never expected Brian to become

vital in his role in gaining complete monopoly and control of the QY Island, due to Aaron's insights and

his conflicting attitude towards Brian. For Aaron, Brian was both a friend and an intimidating foe. By

that time, Ken would understand why Aaron said that Mr. Brian Long could remain proud and arrogant,

while others couldn't.

Brian returned to his seat and saw Molly type words on her mobile phone, and then give her phone to

Eric. She was so engrossed that she didn't notice Brian already sitting next to her.

Eric then understood that Brian finished speaking with Aaron, as he continued glancing at their

movements. He didn't intend to remind Molly of Brian's return. He just grabbed the mobile phone from

Molly's hand, read the sentences and couldn't help but burst into a laughter. He then said," Did Shirley

really tell you that bro has a poker face?"

Molly nodded in consent indicating her answer, and then she looked in the direction of where Brian sat

with a guilty expression reflecting her emotions. However, when she saw Brian sitting opposite her, with

a stern face, she couldn't help but get scared. She bit her lips anxiously and snapped at Eric furiously,

as if accusing him of setting her up without her knowledge or consent once again.

Eric shrugged his shoulder helplessly, indicating that he had done nothing wrong. "I've been wronged,"

he blurted desperately.

Molly cast an angry glance at him. She then pursed her lips as she wanted to comfort Brian. However,

it suddenly occurred to her that she couldn't speak right now. With a flush of embarrassment, she

drooped her head and remained silent. She picked up a spoon and continued to eat the tasteless

porridge.

Instinctively staring at Molly, Brian too was about to say something, but stopped on a second thought.

He felt a deep pang of sorrow growing in his heart suddenly. His annoyance suddenly disappeared and

was replaced with depression which began to cloud his mind: Molly was suffering. He sighed and said

to Eric quietly," We're leaving this afternoon. Keep your eyes open and don't miss any thing happening

here. Aaron's remarkable."

"He must be somebody important if he dares to take control of the parliament and also dominate QY

Island's economy." Eric raised his eyebrows as he assumed a serious tone. Even though he seemed to

be least concerned about Brian's conversation with Aaron, his deepened frown suggested otherwise.

Brian understood too well that Eric couldn't be fooled. So, he had nothing to worry about. His gaze was

fixed on Molly as he said slowly," If the porridge is that awful and you are struggling so much, please

don't eat it."

Molly lifted her chin and blinked. Before she could respond, her body was pulled up by Brian. She was

ushered out of the restaurant all of a sudden. The only thing she remembered was the mysterious and

wicked smile across his face.

"Brother, have you fallen in love with Molly?" Eric murmured as he saw their figures disappear. If that

weren't the case knowing you... You would have told her the truth ruthlessly without considering her

feelings, that the drug has seriously harmed her vocal cord, and there are more chances that she can't

speak again ever. If you don't love her, then why would you go to such lengths as to lie to her?

Is Brian really bothering to take care of another girl other than Wing?

Eric smiled as he wondered whether Becky would feel jealous if she found out how nicely Brian was

treating Molly.

If Becky found out about this, instead of gloating over Becky's jealousy, Eric was distressed greatly

thinking about her emotions, even though he didn't know why. Why? Perhaps, he just did not want to

follow in Frank's footsteps and end up being miserable and all alone.

After all, one could get burnt just playing with fire. He didn't like the idea of getting hurt owing to these

foolish pursuits.

Snapping back from his thoughts, Eric then stood up, paid the bill and left the restaurant.

Two bowls of fluid food were left on the table almost untouched as he set off at a brisk pace.

At the parliament building of A City.

Edgar was being briefed to all entirety on Bill's investigation report. Suddenly, he interrupted and asked

in disbelief," Are you really saying that you can't find the Vice President's movement records? Are we

really that incompetent when it comes to a matter of national security?"
