Enchanted By His Charm

But Mary rarely talked during the meal, while Steven just asked about something of Jay's work and urged them to take care of themselves. After the dinner, Mary told Jay to send Lilith home and said it was not safe for a woman to go back home alone at night.

Jay nodded, and when he was about to leave, Mary reminded him to come back later. Absolutely, Jay knew what she meant and just said yes briefly.

Irish also wanted to go home, but Mary insisted that she had to stay here tonight while Irish had no choice but to stay. Jay returned home around nine in the evening.

Irish was curling up on the couch while May and Steven were sitting there severely. She had realized the severity of this matter since they did not talk with her for a single word during the time when Jay sent Lilith back.

Obviously, Jay also perceived it upon entering the room. After changing his shoes, Jay walked in and said quietly, "Dad, Mom, what do you want to talk about with me?"

Mary stood up, looked at him for a second, and slapped him harshly. Irish did not expect that and hastily rushed to stop Mary and persuaded her, "Aunt, don't be angry."

His right face turned red soon, but he stood there silently without moving as if he had expected it already. In the next second, Mary roared at him, "Do you want to irritate me? Why do you still fall in love with her since you know who she is? Are all women in the world dead?"

Jay kept silent without arguing with Mary.

"Jay, I warn you, no, not a warning. I order you to break up with her and stay away from her."

Hearing this, Jay then replied, "No, Lilith is a good woman, and I won't break up with her."

In the next second, Irish hastily held Mary, who was ready to slap him again, while Steven said at this time, "You have no choice but to break up with her. You clearly know the old scores between the Lake family and us. We don't want to have anything to do with them. It is impossible for us to agree with your relationship unless we are dead."

"Dad, Mom, I know you have prejudice towards the Lake family, but Lilith didn't do anything wrong. It's not her fault."

"But she is also a member of the Lake family!" Mary roared at him.

"Mom."

"Uncle, Aunt, don't get angry. It's bad for your health." Irish hastily persuaded them and then continued, "Though Lilith is also a member of the Lake family, she has nothing to do with those things. How can you blame her for that? What's more, Henry is not her father, and you know her parents also haven't done anything wrong."

Hearing of this, Mary looked up at Irish and asked, "Do you know their relationship earlier than us?"

Irish nodded awkwardly.

"You, you..." Mary trembled out of range and pointed at Irish, "Do you also want to irritate us? Are you also as bewildered as your brother?"

"Aunt, I don't mean that." Absolutely, Irish could understand their grievance, so she held Mary and comforted her softly, "I know you treat me so well and have taken care of me for so many years, and I have to appreciate your graciousness and repay your loving-kindness."

"So, is this the way you repay us?"

"I am just bringing out the facts. You also saw Lilith tonight, and though I also hate the Lake family, I really like that woman since she is very sensible and well-behaved, and she is also hardworking. Think about that, she actually doesn't have to do that since she is rich, but she is not spoiled and makes money on her own skill. You may not know that she entered the Runestone Group through her effort after passing the examination and became an assistant to other jewelry appraisers. Do you know what this means? This means that everyone can command her to do all sorts of chores, but she never complains about it but just does her work in a down-to-earth manner. Many young women were materialistic, but she is an artless woman."

Mary snorted and replied, "It had nothing to do with us whether she is a good woman. In short, Jay has to break up with her."

"Mom, you have to be reasonable." Jay was helpless.

"I am rational enough, and if I am not reasonable, I would have driven her away just now."

"Jay, we are decisive, and we won't agree with your relationship. Anyway, your girlfriend can't be a member of the Lake family." Steven said coldly and then walked into his bedroom.

Jay was speechless and frowned tightly.

"Jay, if you continue to be in contact with her, then never contact us forever." After finishing her words, Mary sat on the couch angrily.

Before Jay replied to her, Irish immediately interrupted him and said, "Don't be angry, Aunt. Even though they have to break up with each other, you have to give them some time to deal with it."

"Sister."

"Be quiet." Irish tipped him the wink.

"Hearing this, Mary was relieved a little and then said, "Break up with her as soon as possible." And then, she also walked into the bedroom.

Only Jay and Irish were in the living room soon. Upon Mary's left, they sat down on the couch and then took a deep breath.

Jay was also tired and sat down beside her with a sigh, "I definitely won't break up with her."

Irish pouted her mouth and said, "No matter how you persuade them today, they will not agree, so try to use some soft tactics. Since they just knew the fact, they must oppose it violently."

"I can't wait." Jay looked at her and then continued, "Don't forget that we are in the same boat now. You have to figure out a solution soon, or you will also risk your own head."

Hearing this, Irish drew back her eyes. After perceiving this, Jay hastily asked what was wrong with her, but Irish didn't reply and just shook her head. She comforted Jay and said that she would try her best to figure out a solution. Though Jay knew that she was preoccupied with some troubles, he did not ask her anymore because he knew that she needed some space.
