Chapter 338
They walked into the villa, and Jack, being the gentleman he was, guided Molly around. "I have a
swimming instructor's certification. If you're up for it, I can accompany you for a swim."
With a touch of arrogance, Molly replied, "My brother not only has a swimming instructor's certification
but also a lifeguard one."
What she was implying was he was not as good as her brother.
Jack chuckled and agreed, "Absolutely, your brother's the best."
"Of course, my brother is a cop," Molly said, her pride shining through.
Jack noticed that Chad was like a mountain in Molly's heart. She only spoke more when Chad was
brought up. This made him even more curious about Chad.
He took Molly to the billiard room, "Do you play pool?"
"My brother taught me, but I'm not very good. I accidentally hurt someone while playing once, and I've
been too scared to play since."
Next, Jack took Molly to the bar, the private cinema, the gaming room, and so forth. Finally, he opened
a bedroom on the third floor, "This is the master bedroom. You can rest here if you're tired."
Molly frowned, "I thought I was going home tonight?"
Jack reassured the wary Molly with a smile, "If you want to go home, I'll take you. They might stay the
night, so I picked a place with plenty of guest rooms. I've reserved the best master bedroom. It's
especially for you."
Molly glanced at him and nodded, "Thanks, but as the host of today, you should keep the master
bedroom. I'll head home if I get tired."
Seeing her distance, Jack responded with a gentlemanly smile, "Alright."
Food was already prepared and placed on the table. Molly glanced over the party-goers, around fifteen
or sixteen people.
Ms. Thornton, on the other hand, was trying to play matchmaker. "Mr. Jack, I didn't see you showing us
around every room. It seems like Molly is special in your eyes."
Molly responded with a sharp retort, her smile never leaving her face. "It seems like you are jealous. If
you're interested in Jack, you can tell me in private. I can help you guys connect. I wish you guys a
quick trip to the altar."
The people around them started laughing, "Ms. Thornton, you're not really into Mr. Jack, are you?"
Jack's face turned a bit awkward, "Guys, stop messing around. Ms. Thornton and I are just friends."
Ms. Thornton hurried to explain, "Don't listen to Molly's nonsense. Jack and I just recently met."
Molly responded to Ms. Thornton, clearly not fond of this kind of joke. The people around them were
smart, so they didn't continue the joke.
Everyone there loved entertainment. After dinner, they grabbed bottles of alcohol. Some played board
games, some went to play pool, and some went to the gaming room.
This was Molly's first time attending such a gathering. She was quiet, but she would chime in when
everyone was playing something.
"Molly, do you play video games?"
Molly was humble when meeting new people. She replied, "I'm okay."
Someone mistook her modesty as honesty and enthusiastically invited her, "No worries, I can teach
you."
Jack invited Molly to play. Molly glanced over at the game everyone was playing and their levels. The
highest was only level 47, and she, a level 80 master, would stand out way too much.
"Maybe I'll use my dad's account." She sat in front of a computer and deftly input her father's account
and password.
When Chad got home from work, he called out as soon as he entered, "Molly?"
There was no response, so Chad thought she was sleeping in her room. He went to her room only to
find her pajamas on the bed, but she was nowhere to be found.
He took out his phone and dialed Molly.
Molly's phone rang from the corner of the table. She glanced at the name on her phone screen, and
her hands were in the final assault. She was faster than anyone else in the room.
Before playing the game, she intended to hide her true skills. However, she couldn't control herself and
boosted her dad's account from level 23 to 28. The people she brought along with her had their levels
boosted from 47 to over 50.
"Hurry up. My brother is calling. I need to finish this in five minutes."
Molly was getting anxious, and her hand speed increased.
If she stopped, the opponent would wipe out her teammates.
Jack watched the girl engrossed in her video game and thought she was pretty cool.
At first, he thought Molly was an elegant and intellectual girl. Today, he found her to be gentle and
exactly his type. However, when she started playing video games, Jack realized she could also be a
cool girl.
Molly's phone was hung up. In no time, Chad's number came through again.
Jack took the initiative to pick up her phone. He answered and put it to his ear, "Hello?"
It was a male voice. Chad's eyes turned cold instantly, "Who are you?"
Then, an urgent voice rang out, "Hello, Chad. It's Molly."
Molly made the final sprint and quickly got up, snatching her phone and cooing into it, "Chad, you off
work?"
Chad was so angry that his temples throbbed, "Where are you? Who was that guy just now? What are
you guys doing?" This is from NôvelDrama.Org.
Molly glanced around the room, grabbed her phone, and quickly ran outside to explain to Chad.
The people inside the room who had been leveled up by Molly stared in shock at their accounts, "Molly
is definitely a pro. Her hand speed was so fast I couldn't even see."
Molly was outside, enjoying the cool breeze. Unknowingly, it was already dark. She was so engrossed
in her game that she had lost track of time.
"Chad, don't yell at me. If you keep doing that, I might disown you as my brother."
"Alright, alright, bro. Don't be mad. I really didn't do anything wrong. I was just playing a game and Jack
answered the phone. I'm angry too."
"Chad, you are the best brother in the world."
Molly was outside on the phone with Chad for almost half an hour. When she hung up and turned to go
back inside, she grabbed her bag from the sofa.
"Everyone, I'm going home. We'll play again next time."
Jack wanted to take Molly home, but she politely declined. She told Jack, "Jack, thank you for the
invitation today. I had a lot of fun."
Then she stepped out of the house, plonking herself down on the steps to wait for Chad.
Before long, Chad's ride pulled up.
He stormed out of the car, shouting at Molly, "Molly, get your ass over here."
Molly bolted over, wrapping her arms around Chad’s arm and waist, trying to stop him from hitting her.
"Chad, there are people around, can we do this in the car?"
Visibly pissed, Chad questioned, "What time is it now?"
Molly replied, "It looks like seven, but it's actually already ten."
Chad got even more ticked off, "So weren't you planning on coming home tonight if I hadn't called
you?"
