Chapter 80 Being Restless (Part Two) (1/2)

Secretly Molly glanced at Brian who still looked aloof. In her mind, she scolded Eric, indignant at his tactless manner. If she massaged Brian's ego with feigned obedience, she realized he'd be nice to her. Lately, it seemed to work, just fine. Lisa had once told her that Brian was a nice person. Now, as she thought about Lisa's words, she seemed to understand. The problem with Brian, was power. Power corrupts; absolute power corrupts absolutely, they said. The corruption for Brian was that with all his power and money, rarely did he get people who contradicted him. As such, Brian had never learnt tolerance for dissenting opinion.

”I can't?” There was a marked touch of indifference in Brian's voice. ”I can do whatever I want to!” he continued.

'Anger is not necessary at the moment, ' Molly thought to herself. As she struggled to control her breathing, she tightly gripped Brian's coat which she was wearing. ”I have complied with your rules. Absolutely, I have been obedient to you. What else do you want from me? Brian, do you have to be so domineering?”

”Yes!” Even though Brian gently blinked with a faint, sarcastic smile,
