Love Began with the First Meeting

Brian's handsome and angular face was full of gloom now. Tony, who was always one step behind Brian, nearly laughed at Mark's witty words, but he managed to suppress his urge when he saw Brian's heavy face.

Mark did not seem to notice that his father was on the brink of bursting out in anger. He blinked his clear, innocent eyes and said, "Just now, I heard Grandpa and Grandma talking about the rights of the candidate ruler. Then I got this from Grandpa Frank..." He took a black card out of his pocket and said,"Papa Brian, I think you should take this. It might help." Brian nodded gloomily, took the card and gave it to Tony, both knowing exactly the function of the card. Then, Brian left immediately.

As Tony hurried to follow his master and was passing by Mark, Mark winked at him with a smile. Tony smiled back as though they had a secret between them.

Brian first went to the Lustrous Hall to change clothes as he was thinking, 'Now, the news coverage is everywhere. So, Molly and Spark will not go to the usual places, which would be easy for them to be recognized.' Then, he ordered, "Tony, focus on the high-end western restaurants..."

"Yes sir," Tony replied firmly as he relayed the order to other staff. Then, the staff begin to search all the high-end western restaurants in Dragon Island.

Half an hour later, Brian stood outside the western restaurant, Blue Sea, with a rather gloomy face. Looking around the restaurant with heavy eyes and seeing there was no reporter or paparazzi nearby, he walked in. It didn't take him long to spot the place where Spark and Molly were sitting.

"Tony, ask all the irrelevant people to leave the restaurant now!" Brian ordered, his voice exuding with authority.

Tony gave a positive reply and then turned around to find the manager of the restaurant. Without a single word, he just took the black card that Mark handed to Brian earlier. As soon as the manager saw the black card, he was surprised and quickly began to arrange his staff to ask the clients to leave the restaurant politely.

Under Tony's instruction, the manager and the working staff of the restaurant soon asked all the people out politely, leaving only Spark and Molly. The manager didn't want to offend Brian, so he personally went to ask Spark to leave politely.

Brian was standing at the door, looking at Molly, who only gave him a single glance, and then she never looked back at him, just as what he had done to her before.

After talking to Spark for a moment, the manager of the restaurant's tone was becoming increasingly polite, and then he turned to Brian without asking Spark to leave anymore.

The manager walked over to Brian. "Mr. Brian Long," the manager of the restaurant said, taking a glance at Spark, who was talking to Molly. "Mr. Spark Su has the special grant of the ruler, and we have no right to interfere with his freedom and rights in Dragon Island." Brian narrowed his eyes and thought, 'If such a thing happened outside of Dragon Island, it would not be a problem at all for me. However, this is Dragon Island, even if I have the power to do whatever I want to do outside, at this place, I still have to take into account my status as a member of the Long Family and I shall not challenge the authority of the ruler of Dragon Island."

"Mr. Brian Long, what about..." The managed was thinking of an alternative solution. "Would you like to have dinner first?"

Brian took his gaze off Molly and walked over to a table, sitting down. The table he had chosen was not too far from the Crystal Table, just a few steps from Molly's table.

Molly glanced at Brian, rolled her eyes, and said ironically, "Oh, some people always think they could blow hot and cold as their wish...but they did not expect that there were things that were out of their control."

Spark listened to her words, wearing a smile that was both charming and wicked, giving Brian a nonchalant glance before resuming his conversation with Molly. Molly and Spark seemed to be lost in their conversations, totally ignoring Brian's presence. Their topics changed from their first meeting, to their re-encountering, then to the birth of Mark...

"Do you remember?" Spark's eyes took a distant look to them as he was grabbing the memory of the birth of Molly's son. "Mark didn't cry even though the doctor was patting him a lot. Everyone was so nervous and anxious. Actually, I didn't know what I was thinking at that time, but I just thought the little baby in front of me was so fragile... So I just wanted to have a try." Spark smiled. "Unexpectedly, as soon as Mark was in my arm, he cried out loudly... Mol, from that moment on, I realized the meaning of life."

As they were talking at their own table, Brian sat alone at other table, holding a glass of wine, the stem between his fingers, his mood changing from anger to deep guilt, which anyone could see by looking into his eyes.

He had always treated Molly in his own way, thinking that it was good to her only in that way. However, he had always ignored her opinions and wishes. Two years ago, when they met again, he blamed her for leaving without saying goodbye, but he never thought how difficult her life was after she left in that way!

Slowly, Brian turned, looking at Molly's smile. Her smile seemed to tell him that although her life had been hard in the past, she was better now, calmer and at ease.

All of a sudden, Brian's heart lurched.
