Chapter 294 294: Why Are You So Happy?

Cassie did not resist him but still stared at him. Through the sunlight, Roy looked even more handsome. She was confused that there were so many women around him, why was he always focused on her? She was not very young, and she also knew that there were no romantic love stories such as Cinderella and her prince. Therefore, she only longed for simple but lasting love. Wasn't it difficult?

Roy didn't know what she was thinking but was warmed by her gaze. The golden leaves were swirling over her head while the sunshine poured down her face, making her look less pale. He could kiss her easily as long as he lowered his head. Therefore, he did that.

He couldn't help lowering his head, pressing down to her lips. But when he was about to touch her lips, Cassie suddenly spoke to him with a cold and indifferent voice, "You came for me today just to kiss me?"

Roy was shocked by her words and straightened his body after a while, letting out a sigh, "Cassie, I really care about you. I am worried since I couldn't get through to your phone for several days."

"Now you see that I am fine."

He sighed slightly and reached out to hold her shoulder. "What happened? If you are not feeling well, then we can go to see a doctor."

"No. It's unnecessary to do that." Cassie declined him directly.

Looking at her, he asked after for a long

time, "Did Fredrick humiliate you?"

Cassie's heart trembled after hearing this.

After seeing this, Roy understood what happened, and he turned back to leave without saying anything, but Cassie pulled him aside and frowned at him, "What are you going to do?"

"I am going to seek justice for you," Roy was annoyed.

"It is none of your business." Cassie roared at him and added, "What does it have to do with you?"

"Cassie, you know that I love you. And…I mean it!" Roy raised his voice while the leaves fell from the trees behind him as if they also felt his agitated emotions. "If he could treat you well, then I wouldn't be poking my nose in your business, but he doesn't. Look at you! Have you ever checked yourself in the mirror?" A sudden pain was visible in his eyes, and he added, "If he does not want to cherish you, then I will warn him to stay away from you. I want to be with you, and I don't believe I will lose to him."

Hearing this, Cassie was not moved by him at all, and when he finished his words, she said indifferently, "I have told you that I don't like you and I won't be with you. Roy, please leave me alone. We come from two different worlds."

"Cassie..." He was obviously upset by her words as it's visible on his handsome face.

"What's more, no matter what happened between Fredrick and me, you are just an outsider, and it has nothing to do with you. I am tired. Thanks for what you have done for me, but please do not come to find me again." Then she took off his coat and handed it to him, and then she left.

Roy wanted to hold her hands, but his feet felt like they were nailed down, and he couldn't move. Of course, he saw the resolution in her cold eyes, and she left even without looking back.

He was overwhelmed by a feeling of frustration he had never experienced before, and he was also at a loss and didn't know what to do. He stood there motionlessly and looked at her, vanishing from his sight.

Compared with Roy's situation, Lilith was luckier.

After work, she saw Jay's car parked on the side of the road with the window opening. The daytime was getting shorter in autumn, so when she got off work, it was getting darker, and she could see the faint light of his cigarette from the window.

She rushed to the car cheerfully and found that he was smoking.

Jay soon finished the cigarette and reached out, opening the door for her. "Get in the car," Jay said with a smile.

She got in quickly and closed the door as happily as a cheerful mouse. Jay didn't start the car immediately, and he was pleased when he saw her bright smile. He reached out and removed the leaves in her hair and asked, "Why are you so happy?"

"Because you came here to pick me up!" Lilith said frankly with a big smile.

She had drank some wine on his birthday and boldly requested to be his girlfriend. Unexpectedly, he agreed. When she woke up the next day, she felt it was like a dream, and she couldn't help wondering if he was serious. But she didn't get the call from Jay the next day, so she was disappointed and felt he must have been joking with her.

However, on the third afternoon, she got a call from Jay, whose voice sounded magnetic. He asked what she was doing and what she ate for lunch. He had never asked her questions like this before. Lilith's heart beat so quickly that she felt it almost jump out of her chest. She answered his question carefully in a low voice.

But soon, Jay told her that he went to carry out a task away from New York these days, and he called her upon arriving there, which made Lilith feel more excited. She felt that only the two of them existed in the world, and she asked him why he called her with such a tremulous voice. She felt weird because Jay would not have called her before, but now he not only called her, but he also took the initiative to tell her about his trip.

Jay was surprised that she would ask him such a question, so he stopped for a while and then answered, "Have you forgotten what you said the night before? I have taken it seriously."

Lilith then realized it was not a dream, and Jay was serious, and now she was his girlfriend!
