Yeah mollys and bettas are not a very good mix. How new is this tank? Is it cycled? Have you tested ammonia, etc? If it's a new tank and you haven't tested water yet, please read these links before adding more fish:
I just learned about cycling but I already have fish. What now?! - Aquarium Advice
Guide to Starting a Freshwater Aquarium - Aquarium Advice

Once the tank is stable and cycled you have some options for more fish; mollys are messy fish so they take up some room. You could add a small school of 6-8 fish; most tetras or danios would work. Maybe go to a local fish store, write down names of fish you like and do some research to see whether they'd be appropriate for your tank.

Unfortunately tiger barbs or a amazon puffer won't work. You tank is 14g? So the mollies should be in a 30g because they are big fish and they create a lot of mess. I would add a school of ember tetras.
