Chapter 343 Hope For Molly (Part One)

Tony expertly maneuvered the car out of the mansion while Brian sat inside quietly.

There was still an hour to go before Elias arrived.

Impatiently, Brian checked his watch and asked, "Who is it?"

The question seemingly popped out of nowhere, but Tony knew what his boss meant. He looked at
Brian from the rearview mirror and only mentioned the name Rory.

The man in question was busy trying to cover his tracks, but Brian still spotted him. None of Rory's
plots ever worked, frankly because nothing in the world could escape the XK Intelligence Agency.

Frowning, Brian looked at Tony through the mirror. "So now anyone can mess with my business?" he
said sharply. Even as his heart fluttered, Tony said nothing.

The air suddenly felt heavy inside the confined space of the car, yet it chilled him to the bone. 'Why did
it appear as if the boss aimed his warning at him?' Tony thought.

Brian brought out his phone and dialed a number, but hung up a few seconds later. All he heard was a
busy tone. "I don't want to see something like this happening again," he told Tony.

"Copy that!" Tony answered with a grin, that was part fear and part relief. One thing Tony knew about
Brian was that he could always tell right from wrong. Becky was Becky, and Rory was Rory. He would
never go easy on Rory just because he was Becky's father.

But Tony remained confused about one thing.

Carefully, he asked, "Uhmm... Should I inform Miss Yan?" He gripped the steering wheel while waiting
for his boss to answer.



"No! I don't want her to know any of these things!" Brian said with finality. He checked his phone again
and accidentally clicked on the photos.

It was the picture of two snowmen that popped out, and instantly, he recalled an unpleasant scene. In
her bitterness, Molly deleted that picture then smashed her phone on the wall. Brian's face hardened
and he ordered his driver, "Tell Rory I would not go easy on him because he is Becky's father and he
can never do anything against me. Or else, I'll be forced to teach him a few lessons," he threatened.

His driver nodded and stole a glance at his boss through the car's mirror. He was not quite sure why
Brian was mad at Rory, but Tony proved it was not because of Rory's meddling in the boss' business.

As they headed to the airport, no one spoke a word. The plane they were waiting for landed on time.
Brian remained in the car while Tony went out to pick the man up.

Elias looked like a typical British gentleman. His hair was gold and his skin pale. He was handsome
and wore a stylish suit that complemented his bright blue eyes. For those who were unfamiliar with him,
Elias appeared like a nobleman. His bearing showed no sign of being a skilled doctor. Neither was it
evident that due to recklessness, his license to practice was suspended.

"Nice to meet you," Tony greeted Elias. "Mr. Brian Long is waiting for you." Although Tony had never
met the doctor before, he was pretty familiar with this genius.

"All right," Elias answered arrogantly with a slight nod. He went to claim his luggage then followed Tony
to the parking lot. The man was talkative and kept asking Tony several questions. He was visibly
excited over the laboratory Brian built for him. Elias was also very curious about the kind of person his
boss was. "So, what is Emperor like?" he asked Tony. He fidgeted a little before continuing, "His voice
was deep and low when we spoke over the phone, and I was little stressed out by it," Elias admitted.

Hiding his smile, Tony glanced at Elias and said, "You'll know soon enough." He cleared his throat a bit
before adding, "But let me offer you one advice. He hates people who talk too much."



The doctor was at a loss for words and merely shrugged. But Tony's advice made him even more
curious about Brian. For sure, money was no object to his mysterious boss. It costs a ton of money to
set up a laboratory that had state-of-the-art equipment very quickly. But more confusing to Elias was
why Brian was willing to pay him to be part of his project even knowing about the doctor's suspension.

While he was thinking about how Brian would be like, they reached the car. Tony opened the trunk to
put Elias's belongings. Elias got in the car and found there was another man in it after he sat down and
closed the door. He studied the mysterious man in the dark and felt a sense of pressure. 'Who is this
guy? Why I felt stressed sitting next to him?' Elias thought to himself.

The mysterious man turned to look at Elias, who felt an electric shock just staring at Brian's eagle eyes.
The disgraced doctor swallowed and carefully inquired. "Are you Emperor?"

Glaring at Elias, Brian neither answered yes or no. But he did value capable men who were loyal. "Take
us to the hospital," Brian ordered coldly.

"Copy that," Tony said with a nod. He drove away and in a few minutes, the airport was out of sight.

It was a shock for Elias that Brian personally came to pick him up. So he, who never ran out of things to
say, remained silent during the entire drive as he remembered Tony's warning. While there were
several questions he was itching to ask Brian, the tension in the car prevented him from talking.

But he did keep stealing glances at Brian. Surprisingly, the mysterious boss was young although Elias
couldn't tell this from their conversations over the phone. What he couldn't believe was how such a
young guy, supposedly bright and cheerful, could be so aloof and commanding.

Lowering his head, Elias swallowed his discomfort. A few minutes with Brian inside the car gave him
the impression he was dangerous. And while the doctor was not awed by Brian's aloofness, it was his
authoritative presence, like that of a king, that he dreaded.



Since Brian had been in touch with him, Elias had treated him with reverence mostly because the man
was super rich. Every time they spoke over the phone, Brian's arrogant voice and curt manner of
speech painted a picture for Elias about his new boss' nature. Finally meeting him in person, Elias
didn't expect to feel chills in his bone in Brian's presence.
