Chapter 347 347: Did She Seduce You?

When the car got to Broadway Street, Irish rolled down the window, and the wind came in rapidly and mixed with the warm air in the car. Jay joked that it was a waste of money while she smiled lightly. She just stared at the neon lights outside the window and said quietly, "I just want to see how cold it is in the fall."

Labor Day was around the corner, so all the shops they passed by were decorated with festive signs, which made them look especially flamboyant. Holidays always made people happy, but why did she feel so

sad?

She sighed again, "Why can't two people just get together and get married? How can one of them leave while the other is so sad?"

Once upon a time, she had loved Fredrick deeply because of his talent, personality, and love for Cassie. A successful, handsome, and emotionally intelligent man was always attractive to a woman. In the past, she had seen them hanging out after lunch. She had seen Fredrick looking around all the malls in order to buy the perfect birthday gift for Cassie. She had also witnessed their joy when they met each other abroad.

So many beautiful memories now turned into bloody ones. Such a perfect couple ended up like this, could she even still believe in love?

Jay shot a glance at her at a red light and sighed helplessly, "Please close the window, okay? I'm so cold."

The window closed slowly.

"You are smart, so you must realize that their case is just one out of a million. You shouldn't think like this, there's still a lot of wonderful love in the world." Jay tried his best to comfort her. Thinking for a while, he said, "One case can't prove anything."

Irish was nestled in the seat and looked out the front and said, "I don't understand. How could this happen? They were preparing to get married."

"Forget it." The traffic light turned green, and Jay just rushed toward Madison Avenue. He then added, "I think your own business is the most important."

Irish frowned.

Jay didn't continue, even though he wanted to say something. Seeing his expression, Irish mostly guessed what he wanted to ask, so she just said placidly, "Ask what you want to."

"What's the relationship between you and Joseph?" He asked directly.

Irish was not nervous or surprised by his sudden question. As he rushed into the lounge and saw her embracing Joseph, she guessed that her cousin would question their relationship in the same way that he treated his suspects. She guessed correctly, and he asked her directly and sharply.

"It's none of your business." She answered lightly.

He was unhappy to hear it, "He is not suitable for you. Not at all!" Jay slowed down as the cars in front of him did.

Irish kept silent.

"He is Ruby's husband and your brother-in-law. Also, he is said to be an actress' lover. You can't get close to a man like that. Of course, I'm not qualified to tell you this. I just want to tell you that if my parents knew, they would be mad, especially my mother."

"How do you know that I'm together with him?" He had just seen them embracing each other, so he might not have guessed about their relationship, Irish thought.

Jay was fretful about it, so he just said, "Joseph told me. He said that you were with him in Light Town, South Africa, and Hong Kong."

Irish was perplexed. She didn't know why Joseph had said this. Jay was clear about it and clarified her doubts, "He wants me to protect you."

Moved by Joseph's kindness, she didn't know what to say.

"Do not be moved so quickly. I'm reminding you here; I can protect your safety, but I can't promise that there won't be rumors about you. Ruby will not give up. What's more, Ruby's mother is very worried about it, and she can be crazy. All in all, it isn't good for you to be together."

Irish was still staring out the front and kept silent.

"Are you listening?" Jay said a little louder.

Irish was still placid. After a while, she replied, "The other day, when I called your mom, she told me that you were bringing a girlfriend home."

Jay was shocked.

Soon Irish asked him, "So, mister, are you prepared to say anything?"

The car moved slower and slower as the road conditions were terrible. Jay's mind moved slower as well.

Irish knew clearly the meaning of his response, so she shifted in her seat and said lightly. "I don't want to get involved in your affairs, so you'd better not get involved in mine."

"It's different. There is no way of comparing them," After a while, Jay quibbled.

"They are all part of the Lake family. No way of comparing them? In your mother's eyes, they are the same," Jay frowned.

After a few seconds, he said lightly, "I think you'd better focus on Roy. Why did he come to the hospital?"

Irish was tired, so she just winked, "Now that all of this happened, it doesn't matter." Roy seemed to be sincerely enamored by Cassie. So what about Cassie? It might be that this love was one-sided and not reciprocal. Cassie had never mentioned Roy in front of her. Thinking of him, she hesitated. She wondered if Fredrick and Cassie broke up because of Roy.

"Irish." Jay had no energy to think, so he just waved his hands in front of her to draw her attention. When she finally saw him, he said embarrassedly, "I need to take Lilith home to meet my parents."

"Did you get her pregnant?" She asked directly.

Jay frowned, "Nonsense."

"Did she seduce you?" Irish knew how busy he always was with his work, so in her opinion, it would be tough for him to woo someone actively.

Jay looked at her firmly, and after a while, he said, "No. I expressed my love to her. She is just the type of girl that I like."

Irish looked at him in surprise. She couldn't believe it. Finally, after a few minutes, she exclaimed, "Awesome! I have never seen you pursue a relationship with someone like this."

"So Irish, you should help me. I need your support." Jay immediately changed the topic.
