Chapter 543 Departure From The Past And Longing For The Future (Part Four) (1/2)

As always, he never liked skirting around the subject.

”Yes. I've just sent him into the drug control center,” Eric replied candidly. He didn't intend to hide that from Brian. ”I originally planned to take him to Molly first but then after that conversation with you, I kind of forgot...”

His voice trailed off, he was still partially scared of Brian. After a short pause, Brian said, ”That's okay. When we go back to QY Island, I'll take Mol to see him.”

”You're taking Molly to QY Island?” Eric cried, rather shocked.

”Why? Any objections to that?” Brian asked.

”No, no. Not in the least,” Eric instantly realized he had slipped and smiled sheepishly.

”I'm taking Mol and Mark now for dinner. You want to come with us?” Brian noticed his tension so he let the subject go and invited him gently.

Eric started to ease up. He rolled his eyes casually, ”Brother, you don't want me to be the third wheel again, do you? It's better if you and your family just spend some time together alone,” Eric said. There was a trace of sadness in his voice.

”Well, no one gives up until it actually hurts,” Brian commented, ”Eric, listen, at least think about it, okay?” His voice was soft and tender. Brian didn't wait for Eric to respond before hanging up the phone.

Lenny continued to drive in silence. Every now and then, Lenny would look over to Eric quickly, who hadn't said a word since he got off the phone. Lenny sighed, she couldn't help but feel pity for Eric. 'Young Master, you must be very sad. It's difficult to fall in love with the same girl as your cousin has. Even though you try to pretend that you're okay, I understand the pain you feel.

It's not your fault that you fell in love with her. Love knows no right or wrong - not even on you or Brain. It's understandable with all the issues that you've carried over from your history. But who really knows how much you're hurting right now?'
