Yoyo looked at Becky, whose face was full of expectations, and she thought back to last night when
Brian had taken Molly's hand and had left the hospital with her.
So she hesitated for a short moment, then said, "Mr. Brian Long is busy working right now. He was
here the whole time last night."
Yoyo believed that lies which meant no harm might even be good for the patient's health. So when she
saw Becky smile sweetly, she shook her head fondly at her behavior. Women in love were all the same.
"Miss Yan, let me check your temperature please," Yoyo said.
Becky was clearly in a good mood because of what Yoyo had said, so she just nodded her head with a
smile and asked, "Did Brian tell you when he will come back?"
"Mr. Brian Long..." Yoyo mumbled, trying to find an excuse. And just at that moment, the door was
pushed open and Brian calmly walked in with Wing trailing behind him.
"Mr. Brian Long. Miss Long." Yoyo politely greeted them. She glanced at Becky, then looked back at
Brian, frowning silently. She was a little afraid that Brian might say something that would make Becky
realize that she had lied to her.
"Brian?" The corners of Becky's lips lifted into a large smile. Then she tilted her head in confusion when
she heard Yoyo greet another person. "Is that Wing?"
"Yeah, it's me." Wing stepped in and sat on the bed. She held Becky's hand, which was trying to reach
out to her. She looked at Becky, worried. "How did you hurt yourself like this? You really need to be
more careful."
"I can't see anymore, so..." Though Becky could not see Wing, she was still very excited to hear her
voice. "Why are you in A City all of a sudden? Did you just arrive? Was it Brian who picked you up?"
"I arrived last night." Wing did not know what had actually happened to Becky, and Brian also didn't tell
her why Becky and Molly were in the hospital at the same time. It was not until now that she saw the
bruise on Becky's forehead.
The smile on Wing's face froze for a second, but she quickly disguised it. Becky held onto Wing's hand
and excitedly chatted with her non-stop, even ignoring Brian.
Brian wasn't even surprised that Becky was ignoring his presence after seeing Wing. He told Yoyo to
take good care of Becky and left the room. He went straight to Elias's office.
But unfortunately, Elias was not in his office. Brian asked the nurse, and she told him that Elias was in
Molly's room at the moment.
Brian didn't think any further. He walked directly to Molly's room. It was only until his hand was on the
doorknob of her room that he hesitated, as Wing's words came to his mind.
His hand tightened on the doorknob, then he slowly let go. Brian peeked through the window into the
room. Inside the room, Elias was running some tests on Molly. He looked at Molly's peaceful face and
wondered, 'Am I really in love with Molly?'
He looked at Molly with unsure eyes. His heart tightened when he saw Molly smile shyly at Elias.
"Brian," Eric greeted, pushing his wheelchair towards him. He glanced at the closed door and asked,
"Why are you standing here?"
"I'm here for Elias."
"Huh," Eric smirked, then added, "I didn't ask you if you were here for Little Molly or Elias."
Brian's eyes darkened at Eric's arrogance. He opened the door and walked in without another word.
Molly and Elias turned to look at the door and saw Brian and Eric walk in. Elias enthusiastically greeted
them while Molly just calmly glanced at Brian, then turned her head towards Eric, who was behind
Brian. She gently smiled at Eric.
"Little Molly, are you feeling better today?" Eric asked, feeling smug that Molly's attention was on him,
and not Brian.
Brian's face was dark. But he didn't say a word. He just looked at her, then turned to Elias and asked
calmly, "Is she doing okay?"
"Yeah," Elias answered confidently, "I just checked her conditions. Everything's all right."
"What about the sequelae you mentioned earlier?"
"I can't say for sure right now," Elias shrugged a little, "But I feel that even if there were repercussions
from the past, they aren't likely to affect her ability to speak."
Hearing Elias's assurance, Brian and Eric both let out a silent sigh of relief. Molly looked at both of
them, feeling a bit lost. She couldn't understand a word they were saying because they were speaking
in English. She widened her eyes and stared at Eric in confusion, hoping he would explain to her.
Eric knew that she was confused, so he smiled and said to her, "Elias just said that there's nothing
wrong with your vocal cords."
"Really?" Molly mumbled, surprised and quite relieved. She accidentally glanced at Brian and he was
staring at her intensely. They looked at each other for a short second before Molly quickly turned her
head and avoided looking at him.
Molly's heart beat faster as the thought of the kiss they had shared at the door of the park last night.
But as soon as she remembered her awkward position between Becky and Brian, and her menial
existence, her eyes dimmed again.
Molly's expressions completely failed to hide her thoughts. Her emotions were laid open for the two
men to see clearly. Both Brian and Eric looked at Molly, but had different thoughts about her emotions.
Brian was clearly in a bad mood, while Eric was getting more and more bitter as he realized the effect
Brian still had on Molly. If he had known that he was going to follow the same path as his father, he
would never have paid any attention to the woman who was kneeling alone in the snow.
"Emperor," Elias said, not sensing the weird atmosphere in the room, "you mentioned that there's
another patient?"
"Yeah," Brian said, looking away from Molly. He then ordered, "Follow me."
Elias said good-bye to Molly and Eric, then followed Brian out of the room.
Molly's lips thinned into a tight line. She looked at the closed door, feeling disappointed.
"Becky is in the hospital too," Eric said slowly, watching Molly's expression turn from one of
disappointment to surprise, "Last night, while Brian was waiting for you to wake up, Becky fell down the
stairs accidentally. She was unconscious for a long time."
"How did that happen?" Molly asked in shock. Her voice was still a bit husky since she wasn't fully
healed. And it sounded a bit weird.
Eric scoffed. He then said, "Who knows?" After a short pause, he added, "She has only been living in
the villa for two days and she is already causing so much trouble ."
Molly looked at Eric in confusion. "What do you mean by that?"
Eric raised his eyebrows and asked, "Little Molly, does Becky know who you really are?" But before
Molly could reply, he answered the question himself, "Oh, Becky can't see right now. So she wouldn't
know yet."
Molly frowned at Eric's sudden change in subject. She glared at him, a bit angrily. "What are you trying
to say?"
