Please provide your definition of the dipole moment of the molecule in the metal-molecule-metal junction.

There is no definition of the molecule dipole moment in the junction in that reference. Please define what you want to compute. This is a complex, heterogeneous system, meaning that partitioning of the total dipole might be rather ambiguous.
