Love Began with the First Meeting

Chapter 28 I Am The Law

Molly was frightened as if she was standing on the edge of an abyss…

... ...

Brian heard Molly frantically yelling," You're totally insane!"

'Am I insane?' Brian asked himself inside. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

He then revealed a meaningful smile on his face and thought, 'Ever since I took over the XK, despite the objection of my father, I have been leading a cruel and bloody life.. What happened tonight is nothing unusual.'

Brian then sneered when he saw that there was only a mastiff with green eyes left in the TV.

Then he thought, 'David drugged Molly and set her up. But he shouldn't have let her into my room... It was a fatal mistake for a man in the underworld to let that happen. He deserves to die!'

Brian picked up the cup, took a sip of tea that had been cooled, and then gazed meaningfully at the TV. On the screen, the mastiff was seen lazily squatting on the ground while looking angrily at the mutilated man. It appeared to be distressed and enraged because it was not allowed to kill David.

Brian grabbed the remote control and turned off the TV without showing any emotion on his face. Then he turned the disk player on which played soft piano music...

Meanwhile, Molly was vomiting into a flower bed outside the house. Nothing was coming out from her mouth because she didn't eat anything the whole day. She groaned in pain and her face twisted because of her convulsive stomach.

While the cold night wind was blowing, she trembled, and her body shivered uncontrollably. She looked pale and vulnerable and her eyes were red as she couldn't hold her tears any longer.

"No, no, no..." cried Molly.

She squatted on the ground in spite of her convulsive stomach. Traumatized by what she had seen, Molly buried her face between her knees and started to cry... David's heartrending cries and the last bloody image in the video kept haunting her and she couldn't help but tremble in fear.

The cold night wind and her helpless sob echoed in the night.

One couldn't tell whether she trembled because of fear or because of the cold wind outside... Perhaps it was because of the fear which ravaged inside her, and not the cold weather. She was terribly tormented and mortified as the brutal scenes went playing like a loop in her mind.

Suddenly, someone put a hand on her shoulder. Startled, Molly looked up immediately. It was Brian who looked indifferent as usual...

''Ah... Go away!" shouted Molly. Extremely frightened, she tried to step back. But having squatted on the ground for a long time, she lost balance and fell down as she pushed Brian away.

She looked at Brian and retreated with her hands on the ground as support. Fear was growing every second in her red eyes.

Not a bit offended by what she had said, Brian, squatted on the ground as well and casually looked at Molly who was trying to get away from him. Then he asked slowly, ''Um... Didn't you like my present for you?"

Molly didn't answer. She clenched her teeth in fear and the sound it made was pretty strange and uncanny in the wind.

"I thought you'd like it..." groaned Brian. He frowned and continued," If it weren't for him, your father wouldn't be in such a heavy debt right now. And you would've never been drugged and had sex with

me... Am I right?"

Brian whispered as if he was talking to his lover. But his soft voice and the evil smile on his face made her tremble violently. A tingling sensation ran through her spine as fear escalated quickly.

"You're a monster!" said Molly word by word. Still couldn't stop herself from trembling, Molly said," He is still human!"

Brian seemed to enjoy being called a monster. He sneered at Molly's concern and said slightly," So what?"

Molly stared at him and her mind recalled the bleeding flesh and broken bones. She tried not to think of them and said," It's against the law... I will sue you!"

"Sue me?" Brian asked smiling.

He raised his eyebrows and a wicked smile formed from his face. But soon... He fixed his gaze on her and reached out his palm towards her. Seeing his movement, Molly inched her way backwards. Brian said casually," The law is in my hands! What I said is the law. And what I did... is lawful!"

He spoke as if he was saying something common and usual. However, his domineering nature made it impossible to question what he had said. He was a powerful man who overlooked and overpowered others. His confidence exuded against the dim light.

The power he had was beyond imagination. Whatever he wanted, he got it!

Suddenly, the tension in the air seemed to freeze Molly. She looked at Brian. At the moment, she couldn't think of anything else. The only thing she knew was... 'I've fallen into the abyss... and there is no way out!
