Enchanted By His Charm

Chapter 742 742: I Have Made My Choice



Jay listened to Kelly silently without saying even a single word.

"Jay, you can't give her a happy life, especially at the right moment. Compared with you, I would like to believe that Lenard is more likely to bring her happiness," added Kelly.

"Lenard?" Jay was shocked yet confused.

"I know he is your good friend. I am sure you still don't know much about Lenard's family," Kelly enthusiastically declared. Jay was getting more and more confused after hearing that. Seeing this, Kelly then told the real background of Lenard's family. "He will resign half a year later, and then he will take charge of his family business. Lilith needs such a man to protect her and to guarantee her future life," Kelly continued.

Jay felt that his head was buzzing.

"The most important thing is that Lilith lives a dangerous and unsettled life with you. I heard that the leader of the drug trafficker is still not caught. I am Lilith's mother, and I gave her life, so I don't hope for her to live in danger. Jay, perhaps you can give my daughter happiness, but you are unable to ensure her safety. I can't let Lilith risk her life to be with you.

What's more, I am sure you are reluctant to quit your present job. You are an ambitious young man. Although you could quit your career for Lilith now, are you sure you will not regret it in the future?" Kelly asked him, staring directly into his eyes.

"Of course, I am not going to regret my decision now that I have made my choice," replied Jay firmly.

However, Kelly shook her head slightly and then continued, "Jay, let her go if you love her. She needs a stable life but not a life filled with dangers."

"You are not Lilith. How could you make a decision for her like this?" Jay murmured in a low voice.

"I am sure that Lilith changed her mind after she came back from Florida. She has never been to such a hazardous place since she always likes to travel to peaceful places. Although I don't know what she experienced in Florida, I know that she must have been shocked at the environment where she stayed. And it might be totally different from what you described to her once before because she had never been to such an environment. It is impossible for her to accept it. She always admires policemen and likes to watch police and bandit movies. She thinks it is a cool job. But I know that your work is not as easy as she expects. You should be clear about the danger of your work, right? Kelly said meaningfully.

Jay began to gasp with a frown as he heard this.πš—π‘œπ―π–Šπ’π™—π”¦π˜―.π“ƒπ™šπ­

"You live in a totally different environment from Lilith. You have been in police schools for years, and you often deal with people from different strata. You have seen the beautiful things in this world but have also experienced some evil things. But there is only sunshine in Lilith's world. I heard that those bad guys in Florida took her hostage. Do you know why she didn't get scared? It isn't because she is brave enough, it's just because she has never expected this to happen to her. What's more, you and Irish were also there at that time, which encouraged her somehow. Jay, I am sure that if a bad guy points a gun at you and Lilith someday, you will try your best to shoot him down while Lilith tries to persuade him to be a good man. That's the difference between you. Do you understand me now?" Kelly exerted herself to express her idea to him.

As soon as she finished her words, Kelly handed the envelope to Jay and then continued, "Jay, please forgive me. You have to understand that I am Lilith's mother, and I just want to protect my daughter from any troubles. However, you could also pursue your dream without any regrets."

After hearing this, Jay kept silent and just put the envelope back on the desk and then left without saying anything.

There was a wall blocking him and Lilith, and it was an unavoidable fact.

Jay could feel that Lilith had something to talk to him about, but she was hesitant.

Just as Kelly said that Lilith had seen something, she shouldn't have to see. She also experienced something she had never expected before. Jay felt so guilty about Lilith's fear and worries.

What's more, he was more afraid to mention anything that had something to do with Carmen.

Jay felt that he was unable to enter Lilith's pure world anymore. But he also dared not to invite her to enter his world because it may hurt her.

Everything changed these days gradually. Jay was willing yet unable to change anything since he also felt so helpless.

Of course, there were some carefree people, such as Mary and Steven, since they didn't know what had happened.

Steven insisted on going to the martial arts hall and would always buy some fruits and vegetables when he returned home. Mary repeatedly told him where to buy those foods cheaply, while Steven often replied with a soft smile. They lived a placid but warm life.

Time passed, and things also changed.

Irish stayed at home on the weekend and would go to school to teach students lessons on weekdays. Henry left his diary to her, in which Henry recorded many things related to Irish's mother, and Irish always read it in her spare time. She was moved but soon forced herself to stop reading. However, she would still read the diary in her spare time; after all, she could learn many things from her mother.

Jordan also had some problems getting back to the motorcade. Although his coach asked him back, a young man on the team disliked Jordan because he thought Jordan brought them many troubles.

It was important for a motorcade team to be united. And only in this way can they be invincible. The coach also felt vexatious about this situation, and he exerted himself to be the intermediator.

Jordan poured out his troubles to Irish at the weekend, but his brother drove him out. Joseph hoped Jordan would work at the diamond mine to practice himself.

It was also bad news for Jordan, and he felt doubly penalized. Irish had never heard that, and she knew Jordan had negotiated with Joseph about this privately.

Irish couldn't understand it since Joseph always hoped Jordan would stay in New York. But now, why did he want him to work at the diamond mine, which was far away from here? Joseph was also clear that Jordan was not interested in business, let alone working at such a remote place.

However, Jordan had no other idea but begged Irish to persuade Joseph to change his mind. Jordan thought that Joseph could do nothing to him as long as he entered the motorcade again.
