Chapter 137 Asleep In His Arms (Part Three)

Molly felt a bit disappointed when she saw him leave, but she quickly restrained her feeling.

Brian went back to his own bedroom, took a shower, changed his clothes and went downstairs.

Tony was still waiting for him downstairs. Seeing him come down, he greeted him respectfully,"Mr.
Long!"

"How is it going at the Emp Exchange now?" Brian coldly asked as he walked outside.

"Harrow hasn't done anything," Tony briefly said. "He cannot make minute adjustments to the stock
market index!"

Without saying anything, Brian walked out of the house and got in the car. Tony silently stared the car
as it drove outside towards the Emp Exchange at high speed. There was less than an hour left before
the share prices were fixed.

For that very reason, people waiting at the Exchange were getting increasingly excited and nervous.
Everyone there was holding their breath in anticipation of the final moment.

Brian took the private elevator and arrived at the central control room. Harrow had already left, but
when Tony told him that Brian was going there, he quickly came back.

The moment he entered the center control room, he saw Brian, who was frowning and furiously typing
something. Brian looked calm, like a domineering and confident king who could do anything he wanted
to.

Folding his arms across his chest, Harrow leaned against the wine cabinet and quietly watched the
data flash across the screen. When he looked up at the clock, he found that there was ten minutes left
before the closing quotation was set.



He felt very nervous. He thought that it was impossible for Brian to make those slight and subtle
adjustments, but was still hoping for a miracle to appear. He was really nervous, hopeful, and excited at
the same time.

Brian's face was straight and devoid of any emotion. His fingers were tapping on the keyboard so fast
that they appeared a blur. The clock on the wall was ticking the atmosphere of the room into something
oppressive. But Brian didn't feel that.

Harrow got even more nervous and almost couldn't breathe. At the beginning, he was leisurely leaning
against the wine cabinet, but now he stood straight. He glanced again at the clock. Only three minutes
were left.

Harrow gradually lost hope, thinking that there was no time for Brian to make any change.

Even though he felt hopeless, there was still some nervousness and stifled feeling behind his eyes.

Tony just sat aside and watched silently because he didn't know much about this field. Even though
Harrow and Tony had been in a spat this morning, Tony knew that he, Harrow and Vincent were loyal to
Brian and were experts in their fields. Each of them was responsible for their own duties respectively,
but they complemented each other, pursuing the same goal.

Time ticked by and there was only one minute left.

Harrow almost gave up, believing that Brian could no longer achieve his goal. There simply wasn't
enough time for that.

"Ding!" A prompt tone broke the silence of the room. Before Harrow could even think of anything, his
eyes lit up. Holding his breath in excitement, he asked,"Have you finished?"



"Yes!" Brian replied in a cold, calm voice. Right then the share price was fixed and the stock market
closed.

Harrow breathed a sigh of relief, staring at Brian who slowly stood up and looked aloof. He admired his
ability very much once more and promised himself that he would work for Brian his whole life.

Some people would pursue wealth all their lives and some would pursue status. As for Harrow, he just
wanted to spend his whole life pursuing a bosom friend who was good at playing some exciting games!

Harrow opened the wine cabinet and fetched a bottle of wine and three glasses. At the moment, he
didn't want to say anything and just wanted to drink a glass of wine with the men in the room for
celebrating his correct choice and the lucky thing that he had found his bosom friend.

After Richie left, Shirley sat still on the sofa, lost in her thoughts. She had hoped earlier that Richie
would not be angry with her and would come back, but he didn't.

The more Shirley thought about it, the angrier she became. She believed that she wasn't wrong and
didn't cheat on him. He had just misunderstood her. Over the course of all these years, he knew clearly
that she loved only him. So why hadn't he trusted her this time?

Shirley wondered why he had even doubted her love for him!

She got more and more indignant and didn't want to think about the reason why he distrusted her. She
stood up, changed her clothes and went out of the room with her handbag.

"Mrs. Long!" Antonio greeted her respectfully.



"Don't follow me!" Shirley coldly commanded. She pressed the button on the elevator, got inside and
watched the doors close in front of Antonio.

Soon as the doors touched each other, Antonio calmly took out his phone and issued an order,"Follow
Mrs. Long in secret. Mr. Long told us to protect her and try not to disturb her."

Shirley went out of the hotel with rage boiling up in her. She even didn't notice that Park Shin Chun's
nanny van had stopped in front of the hotel gate. She just walked to the roadside alone and hailed a
taxi. After she got in the car and told the driver where she wanted to go, she took out her phone.

"Aunt Shirley..." Molly said over the phone, with a touch of embarrassment in her voice.

In her extreme anger, Shirley didn't notice her embarrassed voice. She just asked,"Little Molly, are you
still in the villa right now?"

Molly closed her lips and then confirmed that she was still there, feeling a bit guilty.

"Please wait for me there. I'm be there very soon!" After she finished speaking, Shirley hung up the
phone.

Stunned, Molly heard the busy tone from the phone and immediately got nervous.

She was also very worried, wondering whether Shirley was going to blame her for her secret and
abnormal relationship with Brian.

Molly silently put down her phone and wiggled her fingers restlessly, waiting for Shirley. She had
prepared herself for the worst.
