Chapter 173 Coincidence Increased The Misunderstanding (Part Four)

The woman was taken aback by Spark's angry rant. Indeed, she was extremely guilt and yet grateful
that she found her daughter, so she hastily said,"Sorry. I'm so sorry… I will definitely pay more attention
next time. Thank you so much for taking care of Cathy…"

After expressing her gratitude to Spark, the woman was all ready to take the little girl away. The crowd
gradually returned to the chaotic state once they saw the matter was settled. The tear stains on the
little girl's face were still clear and visible. She suddenly tugged her mother's hand, raised her head and
stared into Spark's eyes. "Elder brother, my name is Cathy Xiang. You played the violin so well and I
absolutely loved it," Cathy said in an innocent tone.

Cathy Xiang didn't know how to praise him or thank him, so she did all she could and described her
own feelings about it.

Spark looked at her and smiled. He squatted down to meet her gaze and gently pinched her little face,
which still had tears on it and said,"If you encounter a situation like this again, you must remain strong.
Okay? Crying will never help you solve problems, irrespective of what the problem is!"

The little girl tilted her head a bit to one side, gazed at Spark retrospecting, and finally nodded with a
serious look.

The woman finally lifted the girl off the ground and took her away in her arms. Spark's smile gradually
turned to a bitter one. Noticing his wry smile, Manny too got upset and sighed. He thought to himself, 'If
Spark hadn't got lost, if his mother had found him in time, then he probably would not have been found
by the Su household and taken back to their family, and his mother wouldn't have been driven crazy,
because she couldn't get him back, and then…'

Manny was too distressed to go on thinking and recalling everything. He just walked up to Spark,
forced a smile and said,"Spark, let's go. It's getting so cold here and I'm freezing."



Spark stopped looking at the little girl's receding figure, as he finally stood right up. He then put the
violin into Manny's hands and walked forward without any resentment. Of course, Manny, following him,
began to whine again.

Meanwhile at the party...

Just as Eric had expressed, even though Brian didn't need to accompany Wing, he didn't have the time
to accompany Molly either. It was not only him, but Shirley and Eric too didn't have time to accompany
her. A very important guest for the Long Family had just arrived at the party. He was a leading
professor specialized in the study of sepsis and had just developed a new drug. His appearance was a
vital and critical thing for everyone in the Long Family, and nothing else could compare with it, right
then.

There was an ice bucket placed in front of Molly and two slender wine glasses strategically crossed in
it. While one was a pink one and the other one was a rosy, and there were many tiny bubbles in them.
They looked really cute and beautiful. Molly couldn't help herself from the temptation so she took one of
them out of the bucket and had a small sip. The sweet fruity flavor with bubbles popped into her throat,
and left the light aftertaste of wine in her mouth.

Molly smiled happily. She really loved the whole experience from the taste to the appearance of it all.
Her clear crystal-clear eyes blinked and greedily glanced at the glass of wine in her hand. She then
took another few sips and found a liking towards the delicious concoction. It was definitely subtler than
juice and yet more delicious than carbonated drinks. She then simply chugged it down, grabbed the
other one from the bucket and drank it up too in one breath.

Molly then drank another seven or eight glasses of wine like that, all from the reserved bucket. The
people standing around her were stunned by the way she drank brazenly. Even the bartender was
surprised by her capacity. He seldom saw anyone drinking sparkling wine in such a hasty manner.



"Even though the alcohol content of sparkling wine is very low, you may get drunk if you consume way
too much and that too so fast!" An elegant voice came through with a touch of seclusion.

Molly turned her head, frowning a bit and found that Edgar had approached the bar counter too. He
then said to the bartender,"A glass of Long Island Iced Tea, please."

The bartender nodded in sync and went to concoct the Long Island Iced Tea cocktail. Edgar watched
Molly, who already started to get a little dizzy, with restrained loving look in his eyes. His sharp
eyebrows frowned, and said angrily,"Don't drink so much in public! It's not decent."

Molly looked at Edgar and felt a knot in her stomach. She bit her lip hard and held back the sadness
that instantly filled in her heart. "Thanks for your reminder, Mayor Gu!" said Molly blatantly disregarding
him.

When Edgar heard the way she addressed him, his eyebrows knitted together tighter. "Have you been
doing fine all these days?"

He had heard the news that Steven owed over five million dollars to Grand Night Casino. Although
Steven had given up hopelessly after leaving the military, it was still impossible for him to owe such a
heavy debt when Molly was in such a situation then. Someone must have plotted it all against them.

But he still needed to figure out who was the person behind such a devious plan.

Molly forced a smile on her face and said with bravado,"Not bad!"

"That's good!" replied Edgar. Although he had a lot of words in his heart that he wanted to express but,
there was no way for him to say them now in such an environment. It was not only the occasion, but
also the mood did not seem to be in his favor.

"Sir, here is your Long Island Iced Tea, please!" The bartender pushed the cocktail towards Edgar.



Edgar gestured, as he held the glass up and said sincerely,"If there's any way that I can help, please
don't hesitate to approach me at any time."

"What kind of help will my woman need from Mayor Gu?"

Brian's cold voice interrupted Edgar just as he was about to finish speaking, and right before Molly
could refuse him yet again. He then reached out and pulled Molly into his arms.
