After hearing this question, Molly laughed at herself subconsciously without answering the question.
Brian suddenly turned the steering wheel and pulled over. Then he slightly turned his body and stared
at Molly, as if his sharp falcon eyes could see through her.
Being stared by Brian, Molly felt goosebumps all over her body. She leaned towards the car door
unconsciously, compressed her lips and asked weakly, "What...what are you doing?"
Feeling uncomfortable at the sight of the frightened Molly, Brian couldn't bring himself to tell her that
Sharon has died. In the first place, it wasn't appropriate to tell her with her current condition. Otherwise,
he couldn't imagine what would happen. He was afraid that he would not be able to control the situation
well and worse, hurt Molly even more.
Brian silently frowned. He slowly moved towards her, while Molly leaned further away. Seeing her
reactions, he stopped and said slowly, "Since you don't want to go back, where do you want to go?"
The words he uttered sounded teasingly for Molly.
Having no clue of what was going on, Molly could only let the words, "I…" Extremely stressed to be
stared at by Brian, she crossed her hands tightly and swallowed her saliva several times before saying,
"I…I… Could you accompany me for a walk?" Molly finally found some words to say. "I just want to take
a walk and relax. Maybe you want to accompany me, perhaps," she added defensively.
Looking at the slightly shining eyes of Molly, Brian raised his eyebrows and answered, "Okay! So where
do you want to go?" While waiting for her reply, Brian stared lovingly at Molly' nervous face.
Brian's words came in a low and deep tone. His attractive voice was similar to that of a mellow wine,
which people would naturally sink. Molly looked at him in a daze, as if her nerves were aroused, and
said slowly, "Phoenix Mountain!"
Puzzled, Brian paused for a while and slowly raised his eyebrows. An invisible smile was curled in the
corner of his mouth. He stared at Molly with his black eyes and said slowly, "Are you going to Phoenix
Mountain for camping?" Brian said teasingly and added, "Really? On such a cold day? I didn't know
you could be so romantic, Mol!" Brian couldn't help but tease the embarrassed Molly.
As he finished his words, his face was already inches away from Molly's. The warm air from his breath
and the minty scent scorching from his body was all over her face, creating an intimate mood.
Molly, surprised by the actions of Brian, was dumbfounded by how close he was. "What…what…Just
what are you thinking?" Molly said in an embarrassed tone while trying to move away. Despite not
being able to think clearly from her embarrassing situation, Molly suddenly realized that Phoenix
Mountain was actually a popular spot in A City for lovers to go camping. This explained Brian's actions.
Teasingly, Brian wore a faint smile and said, "What can I possibly think about?"
"I…I…," Molly was lost for words. Nervous, she kept leaning backwards, away from Brian, until she
was cornered and had no place to retreat. "I... just want to...," Molly added as she continued looking for
the best words to say. "I just want to climb the mount. That's all!" finally, she was able to come up with
an excuse.
The smile Brian wore at the corner of his mouth slowly turned into a playful smirk. It was very attractive
and seductive at the same time. His black eyes were so deep that every expression Molly wore could
not escape from his sight. Brian recalled the data investigated by Tony. He had learned that this little
woman was sent back by Edgar's car after going out of the hospital yesterday afternoon. Remembering
such unsightly memory, he said, "Okay, since you want to go there, I will accompany you today."
As he said those words, he moved back to his seat. Finally freed from Brian's intimate moves, Molly
could now finally breathe. She quietly took a deep breath and suddenly, her mouth started to frown.
With compressed lips as she stared at Brian, Molly couldn't stop herself from asking, "You… you said
that you have something important to do, right? Aren't you going to do that first?" She said that in an
unhappy tone.
After hearing her worries, Brian looked at Molly with his deep black eyes which looked dangerous. His
eyes were comparable to a vortex rose found in a pit, trying to absorb everything around it. Noticing
how Molly was starting to get nervous again, he slightly squinted to hide the sharpness of his sight. A
faint smile appeared on his thin lips and he said indifferently, "But it's more important to accompany
you."
Surprised by his words, Molly was overwhelmed by the sincerity and sweetness of it. She stared at
Brian with her bloodshot eyes, as if she just saw a monster. After a while, she asked drearily, "Perhaps,
are you possessed by a spirit?" "You feel so different. It's so unlikely of you to say such words," Molly
added.
Upon hearing that, Brian pulled a long face, sneered and said, "Molly, I shouldn't have been kind to you
for a minute."
After saying that, Brian took a cold glance at her and started the car. He continued, "Let's have a meal
first, then I will accompany you to Phoenix Mountain."
Feeling like there was no going back, Molly bit her lips while her face slowly started to get pale. "Are
you really willing to go there? With me?" she asked.
"Yes. Got a problem with that?" Brian answered. After saying his words, he took a glance at Molly and
slowly added, "Mol, from now on, I will take part in everything you're involved in." Brian paused and
continued, "And you just have to remember one thing. That is to never betray me. Otherwise…"
Upon hearing his words, Molly felt like her heart skipped a beat. She was confused by the meaning of
his words. The words "never betray me" kept on resounding in her mind.
Noticing how puzzled Molly was, Brian decided not to finish his words. It was not until late afternoon
that they finished their meal. While they were having their meal, Tony brought something to them. At
first, Molly had no idea what they were and later learned that they were all cold-proof clothing and
some stuff for daily use.
