Chapter 533 I Only Did It For You (Part Three)

She held back from stomping her foot, but snarled at him, "Eric, you're really infuriating!" Molly almost hit the roof because of his malicious behavior. "Are you happy when you see me feeling terrible?"

"Why would I feel that?" Eric shot back. He quickly shed the reserved look and focused his eyes intently on Molly.

What I feel for you isn't just because I like to compete with Brian. If you feel horrible, I will be sorry for you. If you feel sad, it will break my heart. Do you understand what I'm saying?"

His sudden confession took Molly by surprise. She forced a small smile as she stammered with her reply. "You… I… Don't say that to me," she appealed.

"What then should I say?" Eric asked coldly. "Molly, I have more than just a terrible crush on you, and I'm very serious about my feelings for you."

It was all so confusing for Molly. Her heart and mind were a mess. She felt as if her thoughts were a ball of yarn that a playful kitten tangled up. Her eyes went blank, and she now didn't know what to say or how to act. But subconsciously, Molly wanted to resist Eric like she did Brian.

Deciding to focus on business first, Eric said, "Something is wrong with our project." The primary reason why he was at the villa was because of the urgent matter in QY Island. He knew that the only way to provide Molly with strong support was to be powerful enough to compete with Brian. "Word from the Shadow Organization is that someone intends to target our entertainment center," Eric reported.

His cousin slowly leaned back against his chair. It seemed that Brian's suspicions that morning had been confirmed. 'Humph. I knew he'd showed up in our casino intentionally to get our attention."

Eric eyed him carefully, trying to piece together the puzzle. "You mean this matter is related to that man who made a hit in your casino in Las Vegas?" He had heard about that incident and the culprit behind it.
