Chapter 329 Moving In (Part One)

Elias was doing the last experiment in an extremely high-end laboratory when Brian gave him a phone
call. Around him were all the hallmarks of the latest tech: automated biomolecular interaction analyzers,
a cell harvesting system, biomarker monitors, and various other pieces of equipment and
instrumentation.

He picked up the phone excitedly and could not help but boast about what he'd done.

He smiled and said in English,"Emperor, the final phases of the medicine are complete. The product
should be ready for testing. As per your requirements, it does the least harm to human body."

"So you're saying I can have it?" Brian was eager too. This was better than he expected. All of a
sudden, joyfulness filled his dark black eyes. He wanted to know how quickly he could get his hands on
it.

Elias stared with his blue eyes at the pharmacological analysis numbers displayed on the monitor in
front of him. With a look of insolent pride, he said arrogantly,"I'm doing the final LADMET analysis,
which will be finished in two or three hours at most. Those tests will measure how good it is at its job.
Besides, I've booked an airline ticket. I'll be at the airport tomorrow afternoon unless something
unexpected happens. And I'll need a ride."

"And you'll have it. Looking forward to meeting you!" Brian said simply while walking upstairs. "See you
tomorrow! By the way, you'd better not disappoint me, because I hate being disappointed. Things get
complicated when I'm disappointed, and they have a tendency to spin out of control. And we don't want
that, do we?" There was more than a hint of menace in Brian's voice.

After saying that, he hung up the phone, without waiting for Elias to respond. There was only one
response he wanted anyway, and he didn't have time to wait around for Elias to say it. He walked to his
bedroom, put his hand on the doorknob without hesitation and entered the room as soon as the door



was opened. He was confident like that. Every action he made was his alone. Becky hung up the
phone when he walked in.

"Bri?" Becky asked in a soft voice.

"Hm?" Brian answered while walking towards his bed and sitting down. His sharp eyes glanced at
Becky's injured leg and hand, which had just been bandaged. He gently picked up her injured hand and
held it in his. He said in a low voice,"You'd better stay at the villa so I can look after you."

This was the best news she could have heard. She was so happy, but didn't want Brian to know that.
Instead, she lowered her head and pretended to be depressed while saying,"I don't want to put you out
if I stay here..."

"I've told you before. It won't put me out. I've been trying to get you to move in here anyway!" Brian said
affirmatively. He regarded the woman before him now, who didn't want to trouble him with anything. He
felt sorry for her. But he was still depressed and angry. Was she still testing him after all these years?

Becky played with his thumb with her non-injured hand and nodded,"Bri, please don't blame her..."

And of course, like clockwork, the image of Molly staring at him like she wanted nothing more to do with
him sprang unbidden to his mind.

As Brian kept silent, Becky gradually developed a worried look on her face and said,"It wouldn't have
happened if I were able to see. It's not her fault."

Brian fixed his gaze on Becky's eyes. They used to be bright and inspiring but now were pale and
vacant. Brian's heart was hurt deeply by the change. He raised one of his hands and slightly swept his
fingers across Becky's eyelids. She closed them reflectively and looked even more lovely. He said in a
faint voice,"Tomorrow there's a medical wizard coming here. With any luck, he'll cure you. Where
everyone else failed, he might find a way."



"Really... ouch..." Becky gasped in pain as she tried to grasp Brian's hand with her injured hand. She
was so excited to hear about the possibility of a cure that she forgot the wounds underneath her
bandages. They didn't hurt unless you did something to them. Because they were so fresh, the merest
touch caused her pain.

"Don't do that, it hurts," Brian teased. "But seriously, be more careful, okay?"

Becky bit the inside of her cheek, as if she felt she did something wrong. However, she couldn't be
happier, because she found that Brian still cared about her so much. She was so happy that she even
forgot her original goal.

Right now the most important thing was to get her sight back. Once she regained her sight, she'd be
confident enough to keep Brian's attention, and no one else would be able to touch him.

"Get some rest. I have something I need to deal with," said Brian. He gingerly placed Becky's hands on
the bed. He was about to stand up and leave when he heard Becky gave a weak "yeah." And one more
thing came to mind before he left. He turned around, looked at Becky and said,"Molly can't speak, so
just go to Lisa or Yoyo if you need help. It'll be easier."

Becky was surprised to hear that. She asked,"She's dumb?"

Brian didn't like the word "dumb", though he did not think about why. He frowned and corrected
her,"Mute. And it's just temporary."

"Then..."

"Then you don't need to know more," Brian interrupted. "I told Lisa to prepare your meals according to
doctor's orders. She'll bring some up later."



Beck suddenly folded her uninjured hand into a fist under the quilt, but she only nodded with a tender
and graceful look on her face and said,"Okay. Just remember me while you're working."

Brian left. Just like in the past, he wouldn't have business on hold for anything, while Becky understood
that. Of course, it was possible that now there was a more selfish motive -- to get Brian to pamper her.

The door was closed. Becky lay on the bed weakly and said slowly,"Yoyo, grab John and fetch my
luggage from the hotel."

"Ok," Yoyo answered, picked up her bag and heading out of the room. However, she looked at Becky
while walking. Before Mr. Brian Long came in, Becky was talking on the phone with someone. She
didn't say much, but the conversation made her look sad.. She hung up quickly when Mr. Brian Long
came in, like she didn't want him to know about the call.

Yoyo exited from the room in confusion. Despite her curiosity, she knew her duties well. A good
caregiver should put the patient's condition first, and not allow anything to distract her. She should also
pay attention to things that might affect their health.

Now there was nobody except Becky in the room. She took out her phone and rang up Cindy with the
number by experience.

"Becky..." a somewhat tired voice came through the receiver.

Just judging from Cindy's voice, Becky guessed that Cindy might stayed up late last night. They
exchanged pleasantries, then Becky said,"You were right, Cindy. I got hurt in front of Brian, and now I'm
staying here. I'm in the villa," she paused, and then added slowly,"in his bedroom, on his bed..."
