Chapter 336 Frame-Up (Part Five)

Panicked, the two gamblers looked at one another and tried to beat one another to defend themselves.
Their scheme was exposed, and they now knew who Brian was. His voice quivering, the fat man
explained while pointing to the assistant manager," We were only taking orders from him."

The man in question suddenly went pale. His lips trembled in panic, and he was too terrified to speak
clearly. "Mr. Brian Long…" he pleaded. "I am innocent." In his fear, he had forgotten his broken finger. "I
also…" the man stopped.

"Don't tell me you're also taking orders from someone else!" His eyes boring into the casino officer,
Brian snorted in contempt, and his mouth tilted at the corners. His look was meant to intimidate, and no
one in the room dared to look at him. "Don't lie to me! You had the nerve to cheat on our clients while
working for me?"

"No, I didn't! I…" Scared to death now, he stammered then stopped.

"And then you had the gall to hit my woman?" Brian was on a roll. He let out an evil laugh. Brian was
laughing at himself, but it sounded like he was also laughing at the others. Anyone hearing his laughter
would feel threatened. Right now, the feeling was like being trapped in hell. "Don't worry. I'm a fair man,
and I believe in justice. Whatever I owe, I always pay it back."

Slowly, he turned to Molly and looked at her with kind eyes. "Tell me, Molly, what will you do with
them?"

His tone was charming and at the same time frightening. Molly relaxed her hands as the rest of the
people in the room looked at her with imploring eyes, almost brimming with tears.

But her thoughts were not on what she suffered in these men's hands. Instead, she felt heartbroken
and suffocated. "My woman?" she murmured, repeating what Brian called her. Her head suddenly
snapped. 'I'm not your woman anymore! Why did you say that?' Molly cried out in her mind.



She bit her lips and felt the blood in the corner of her mouth, which made her appear sinister. Molly
threw Brian an inquiring look, and when he nodded, she pursed her lips and approached him until she
stood in front of him.

Everyone held their breath at the scene, especially the three culprits who conspired to frame Molly to
take the fall for their evil scheme. No one among the assistant manager, the fat man and the educated
gentlemen remembered their cruelty to Molly just hours before. But they watched her miserably,
begging for mercy.

They all waited for her reaction. Brian's eyes had darkened at the thought of her earlier ordeal. In the
past, he would have taken revenge on anyone who bullied or hurt Molly because he believed no one
could covet his possession and go unpunished. However, today was different because things had
changed. Furious and eager to take action against the casino bullies, Brian still wanted Molly's opinion
on how to handle her oppressors. He cared about what she felt. If the woman wanted the three men
executed, he would do it without thinking twice. And if she demanded that they be released, he would
let them go. The only sound in the room at that moment was breathing.

Brian could think of nothing or no one else but this woman that he adored. And for as long as she was
happy, he would be good. He would prefer, though, that Molly voluntarily said something to him.

She raised her head to look up at Brian's perfect features. Was it just minutes ago when he had pulled
her into his arms to comfort her after suffering in the hands of cruel guards? A sense of security that
only Brian could provide was so strong. Molly never felt that way before with anyone else, whether they
were men or women. But the fact was Brian was cold-hearted and a bully in his own right. And in his
heart, she was nothing but a toy. He could play with her whenever he pleased and easily abandon her
once he got bored.

The man stepped forward and urged," You can choose to do whatever you wish."



She smiled, but it was a bitter smile that made people feel sad when they saw it. The men in the room
waited for Molly's answer. All of a sudden the sound of palm slapping into cheek jolted them. The
forceful slap broke the silence inside the room. Everyone who saw what happened was stunned. It was
a completely unexpected moment that caught everyone by surprise. It was rare to watch a woman
boldly standing up to a man. As everyone else in the room was a man, they felt terrified.

Molly swung her arm wide and slapped Brian so hard in front of everyone to humiliate him.
