Chapter 32 Mind Reading

Aware of Brian's reaction when it came to Becky, Wing changed the topic and chatted on with Brian for a few more minutes before hanging up.

As the call ended, Brian put the phone back in his pocket and turned slightly towards Molly. She was staring blankly at him, with furrowed brows, and lips moving slightly. She seemed to have been immersed in her own thoughts.

Somehow, her expressions made Brian displeased and his eyes became deeper and sharper.

The tension in the air filled the entire car, and Molly suddenly came back to her senses as the atmosphere became heavier still. Right about that time, she met Brian's deep eyes, and her heart trembled in fear. This was so awkward!

"What...what's up?" she enquired cautiously. In her mind, she had witnessed something unreal. That a man with an aura as cold as Brian could possibly treat someone gently? Was it real?
