Chapter 562 Asking Him For Pocket Money (Part One) (2/2)

”You're my wife in name only, on paper only. My heart and love will never be yours.”

Edward made it clear to Daisy that she was nothing to him. They were both victims of family greed -- the marriage was arranged for them.

Six years passed. She remained quiet, gaining a reputation in the army as a tough-as-nails colonel. When she walked into his life again, Edward fell in love with this woman...

t love you... even though I hate you, I never wish to see you give up your pride, especially for my sake.”

Brian focused his gaze on Molly as if he was afraid that she would disappear in a wink. He stretched out his hand and tried to wipe off her tears, but Molly took a step backwards and moved away from his touch.

”Mol...” Brian called out her name softly. His mind was a mess. He had only wanted to protect her, but why did things turn out like this and why was she so sad again?

Was it totally wrong of him to be her shield?

He merely wanted to show his tenderness towards her and he would never behave this way to anybody except her.

”Bri,” said Molly, sniffing her nose, ”I beg you. Don't put yourself in danger for my sake anymore.” She thought to herself, 'I'm afraid that your tenderness would become the cause for my sadness some day. I'm afraid of getting used to your protection. I'm afraid that once you abandoned me again one day, I wouldn't be able to live without you.'

She squatted down, hugged her knees and then burst out crying.

Some people who were passing by watched them curiously and thought them to be a quarreling couple. Some sympathized with Molly, while others laughed at her weakness.
