Enchanted By His Charm

Veterans Day finally came. It was a national holiday, so it was natural that the traffic was congested, especially on the street around Midtown Manhattan, because people all got out celebrating this holiday.

Looking at the dense crowd, she worried that her car would be squeezed out of the street. Many people were going out to visit the monument of veterans. Sometimes Irish would think that if all the people were grateful to those veterans who sacrificed their lives. Irish refused her Uncle Steven's invitation to go out with them and stay in the crowded New York to welcome Joseph's brother.

This morning, she finally came home from the crowded street, and then she simply cleaned up, looking at the time. Jordan would arrive at 2:00 pm, so she still had

enough time to the airport.

Turning on the TV, she made a simple meal, and gossip news was reported on the TV when she was about to finish eating. It said that the famous movie star Britney White would leave her original brokerage firm and sign a contract with another company. As for a reason, she just mentioned that it was because of the economic problems of the original firm, but she did not reply about other details. However, some insiders revealed that she signed on a high price with the new brokerage firm. This news immediately made Irish lose her appetite, especially when she saw Britney's face on TV. Irish puckered her mouth and then snorted at the TV, "It turns out that when the river rises, the boat floats high, but you have to take care of yourself, avoiding being drowned in the river. I don't want to haggle over with you."

When she arrived at the International Airport Terminal 3, it was 1:40 pm. She came twenty minutes earlier, so she went to the coffee house and waited for him while drinking coffee. She made a special plate for Jordan since she didn't have his photo. It read Jordan welcome home. People were passing to and fro in the airport while she was drinking leisurely like an unoccupied person who was killing time.

When Irish was still wondering how she should greet Jordan, someone patted her shoulder behind, which led to a violent cough since she happened to take a sip of coffee. Before she could clearly see who was there, a man had sat down beside her and reached his arms, naturally embracing her into his arms. She turned to him while coughing but found Leo's smiling face, "Are you going to murder me?"

"You are too weak." Leo patted her back for a few seconds and asked, "Do you feel better now?"

"Please stay away from me if you want to do some good deeds."

"Don't be so cruel to me. I miss you so much, although you may not miss me." He said slowly, taking the coffee in her hand and drinking it directly.

When Irish reacted to what he was doing, he had already finished the cup of coffee. She was so helpless and said, "Leo, don't you know I have drunk this coffee? What's more, are you so poor and can't afford a cup of coffee?"

"First, your boyfriend grabbed my diamond mine in South Africa; secondly, I like to eat your saliva," Leo replied immediately.

"You are so disgusting." She got goosebumps after hearing that.

Leo stood up, threw the empty cup into the trash can, and held her shoulder intimately when sitting back, "Don't say that to me. I will be sad."

Irish was accustomed to his behavior, so she did not argue with him.

"It seems you are not in New York during this period."

Leo smiled at her and replied, "Wow, it turns out you still care about me. It seems that I am not self-sentimental."

"Well, you are right. I miss you every day." Irish rolled her eyes at him.

"Now that you miss me so much, then why not let me kiss you?" He got closer to her while talking.

However, Irish did not avoid but squinted at him, and at the moment before he kissed her cheeks, she suddenly said, "If you kiss me now, I will bring you to play the Roller Coaster immediately."

Leo paused beside her ears and said after a few seconds, "Irish, you are a psychologist, so you must know that the proportion of men with acrophobia is larger than that of women."

Irish puckered her mouth and then replied, "Yes, so you have to accept treatment, or I am afraid that you will be fearful when going downstairs. But I am bewildered why you are not afraid to take an airplane."

Leo straightened his body but did not reply to her.

"So you are curable." Irish kept joking and patting his shoulder while Leo glared at her.

"Okay, let's return to our topic. Why are you here?"

"I just got off the plane, and by the way, I came here to pick up someone," Leo said leisurely.

"Oh," Irish replied briefly while Leo happened to take the plate next to her and snorted twice. "Fortunately, he could read his name, or you will definitely brush against him."

His words revealed too much information, and Irish immediately perceived the key point of his words. She knocked at Jordan's name on the plate and asked tentatively, "Are you here to pick him up?"

Leo nodded casually while Irish was in great astonishment.

Leo always treated Joseph as his foe, but why would he kindly treat Joseph's brother? But soon, she realized they were in a bizarre relationship, so there was no fuss that Leo would be intimate with Joseph's brother. Thinking of this, Irish joked with Leo, "Are you going to kidnap Jordan so that you can threaten Joseph?"

It was a joke, but Leo took it seriously and snorted, "Do you think he cares about his brother? He even will not frown if others really kidnap Jordan."

Irish was shocked by his words, "How could it be possible?"

"It is the first time for Jordan to repatriate. Can you imagine the feeling that a child grew up abroad without a family member?" His voice suddenly turned severe, which surprised Irish since she never expected that it was the first time for Jordan to return to America.

Leo put aside the plate and stared at Irish seriously, "I have to repeat the words I told you before. Joseph is not a person as simple as you think."

"I never expected that he would be such a simple man." She replied since she thought she needed to explain.
