Chapter 612 Getting A Job (Part Three) (1/2)
Brian quietly walked in the room with the sound of his footsteps muffled by the thick carpet. He stood by the bed Molly was sleeping in and gazed at her face in the dim light by the wall lamp. He leaned over to smooth over her knitted brows. He smiled at this bitterly and sat next to her just staring at her face. He was so near her yet their hearts were so distanced from one another.
Brian didn't know how long he stayed there but he eventually left. Before he did, he saw a bunch of newspapers on the bedside table with red marks scribbled all over. He was smiling as he walked out of the room.
The sun rose to welcome the morning.
Molly got up very early in order to look for a job. She quickly washed her face and brushed her teeth, and changed her clothes. She stuffed the newspapers in her bag and went downstairs. When she passed the dining room, she was surprised to see Brian was having breakfast there but she ignored him and just continued walking glancing only slightly.
”Don't you have manners?” Brian said coldly.
Molly paused, took a deep breath, and turned her head, ”I have to go get a job so I'm not having breakfast here. Enjoy, though,” she said simply. Then she turned around and left.
At that moment, Lisa was just coming out of the kitchen with a plate of steamed buns in hand. She saw the whole thing happen. She slowly placed the plate on the dining table and avoided Brian's gaze, sighing all the while.
”You don't have to cook so much,” Brian said flatly, ”Lucy must be expecting you and John to go there earlier. You can let John drive you.”
”Okay,” Lucy didn't see herself as an outsider in this villa at that moment. She knew Brian too well.
Brian finished eating, wiped his mouth with a napkin, and left. As Tony drove by, he passed by Molly who seemed to be in a hurry. The villa was in a secluded, private road that taxis didn't pass through.
”Mr. Brian, aren't we going to offer Mrs. Molly Long a ride?” Tony offered.
Brian felt his heart twist at the sight of Molly walking along the road in a haste, ”Let her be,” he said coldly.
