Love Began with the First Meeting

Chapter 364 Facing Her Own Feelings (Part Three)

If not today, if not now, she still had to leave one day, didn't she?

"Why are you so sure that Brian doesn't love you back?" Wing realized that both Molly and Brian were stubborn as fuck. They were both afraid when it came to love. They just kept complaining about their feelings without doing anything to make themselves happy.

"Wing, I think you know why. He is in love with Becky." Molly's heart turned bitter as she spat those words out loud. She really wanted to ignore the hurtful truth that the man she was in love with would never return her feelings.

Wing rolled her eyes. "Have you ever told him that you are in love with him? If you haven't, then how can you be so sure that he doesn't love you?"

"I...I told him once." Molly thought of the snowy night she had shared with Brian. They had strolled in the snow, holding hands with each other. She had a feeling that the peaceful and silent night would forever be a distant memory for her.

Wing was a bit surprised by Molly's answer. She asked, "And how did he react?"

Molly's smile was very bitter. She laughed at herself. She should have known all along that Brian would never return her feelings. "He is in love with Becky."

Saying those words aloud again to Brian's sister was like sticking a knife deep into her heart. Molly grabbed onto the cup in her hand tightly, trying hard to hide that she was miserable and embarrassed.

Wing didn't say anything for a while. She lowered her gaze to glance at her phone, then slowly asked, "What if I tell you that Brian is, in fact, in love with you? Are you willing to try to be with him?"

Molly didn't answer her immediately. She was deep in thought. After a few seconds, she finally said, "No."

"Why not?" Wing asked, confused. She couldn't understand what Molly was thinking.

Molly smiled, but anyone could easily tell that it was forced. "You don't have to be with someone to love them. I just want to live an ordinary life, really. When he ultimately becomes bored with me and wants me to leave, I will go to some place where no one knows me, even if I end up being alone."

"You are not willing to be with Brian? Even if that means you might end up being alone for the rest of your life?" Molly nodded her head and Wing felt a bit helpless. She asked again, "Then what about Eric? I can tell that he has feelings for you." Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

"Eric?" Molly mumbled, "I don't know... To be honest, I didn't really like him very much at first. But every time I was lonely and in need of help, Eric was the first one to appear and help me. Wing, do you understand that feeling? It's like grabbing onto the nearest piece of driftwood when you are drowning. Eric was like the only hope for me."

Both of them remained silent for a long time after that. Wing's heart broke for the girl sitting in front of her. She could tell that Molly was only pretending to be strong, but the truth was that she was so vulnerable.

Wing glanced at her phone. She regretted her decision to secretly call Brian to help him realize his own feelings by making Molly admit her feelings for him. Was she too cruel to this sweet and precious girl in front of her?

Wing disconnected the call without Molly noticing.

The private Dragon Empire Group hospital.

Brian slowly put down his phone after hearing the click on the other end. His emotionless face darkened as he thought back to what he had just heard. Tony, who was standing far from him, could easily feel the chillness radiating from Brian.

The door of the examination room was pushed open and Elias walked towards Brian as he took off his medical mask. But before he could even get close to Brian, he already felt the depressing atmosphere around Brian which almost choked him.

Brian slowly raised his head and stared at Elias, eyes sharp like an eagle. Elias, who was about to speak, closed his mouth nervously and gulped.

Brian didn't say a word. He just looked at Elias with a dark look on his face. Elias had a feeling that if he delivered any kind of bad news at that moment, then he would surely be doomed.

"Well..." Elias's voice trembled, but he continued, "Miss Yan's retinal nerves are almost necrotic. The only way of healing her is to find a new retina for her as soon as possible. But the tissues of her retinal nerves are quite special, so finding a suitable retina for her..." Elias backed up against the wall after seeing Brian's eyes darken. He gulped and continued, "...will be extremely difficult."

When he saw Brian's murderous stare, Elias quickly added, "But that doesn't mean we won't be able to find a suitable retina for her! I will make sure that her condition stays stable first."

Though Elias said that to avoid a confrontation with Brian, deep in his heart, he knew that it was almost impossible for Becky to regain her vision because he had read Felix's reports. That was, unless they found a very suitable retina for her. But considering how special her retinal nerves were, it was practically impossible. He was really good at his job, and he was also good at developing modern medicines. But even the most effective medicines could not help with Becky's situation because there really was no other solution to her medical condition.

Elias's eyes suddenly flickered with a trace of hope. He looked at Brian and asked with expectation, "By the way, do you know if Miss Yan has any brothers or sisters? If she does, then there is a possibility to transfer that person's retina to her. But if we choose to do this, then this other person might face a few problems. Though there might not be any lasting complications, there is still a

possibility that this operation might decline their visual acuity, which will end up in them needing a new retina as well."

Hearing his words, Molly's figure flashed through Brian's mind. But as soon as it appeared, he frowned deeply and said in a stern, cold tone, "No, she doesn't!"
