Chapter 374 The Game Unfolding (Part One) (1/2)
”Brian,” Molly called his attention, skepticism apparent in her tone.
”Is it true that you haven't pursued a woman before?
Am I right?”
She spoke with her eyes wide and alert, her head slightly slanting to the side as she gazed at him.
Brian's attractive profile made her smile, a warm caress?akin to the sunlight that she welcomed.
He was angry at first but seeing her smile gave him relief. Slowly, he took a few steps towards her and helped her put the jacket on. ”Aren't you assuming?too much about it?”
”What other choice do I have, anyway?” she asked, freezing at his words.
”Indeed,” Brian replied as he glanced at her, looking calm and collected.
Molly agreed at once.
There was a momentary pause between them as she pondered about it, making her frown.
”I don't need you to follow me because I told you before I'm not going leave. Don't you realize?it's weird for a big hotshot guy following an odd girl like me?” she asked, licking her parched lips after.
”No,” came his quick reply.
His gaze went down to his wrist, specifically on the teeth mark Molly had inflicted on him.
The bite was strong. It almost seemed?like she had put all her strength into it. It was still raw and torn. He might need to stitch the gaping wound.
And yet, the expression he had was far from being in pain.
'A meek woman like Molly could sometimes bare her teeth, ' he thought, smiling to himself.
As she glanced at him, Molly noted the unusual expression on his face. When she followed?his gaze, her heart was suddenly filled with regret and fear. The angry wound she made looked painful and disgusting.
”You may not be the first woman I'd chased but you certainly be the first to bite me,” he said, looking at her.
Shocked, Molly moved a meter as she stared with guilt, stuttering with her words.
”I... I…It's your fault! You should've let me go.”
”Are you saying I deserve this bite?”
He asked as he stared at her with a raised brow.
Embarrassed, she pursed her lip and nodded. Her?voice was almost like a whisper when she spoke.
