Chapter 375 - Pursuing the parents

"Bring him here." Chairman John said with assertiveness.

"Yes, Chairman." The butler replied then he went to fetch Lance.

After a couple of minutes, Lance is now sitting in front of Madam Kelly and Chairman John.

"Atty. Lance Kho. It is a pleasure to meet you. Thank you for taking care of our daughter-in-law in the past." Chairman John Parker said appreciatively. While Madam Kelly is eyeing Lance. When it comes to physical attributes, Lance could be compared to the celebrity and models that Madam Kelly has seen on the television. But unlike them, Lance looks smart and carries himself in a dignified way. No wonder the Do's entrusted J to him.

Lance smiled. "The pleasure is mine Chairman Parker. You don't have to thank me. It is my duty and responsibility not just her adviser and lawyer but more as a friend. You could say that I cared about her as a brother does to her younger sister." Lance said humbly.

And he speaks well. Madam Kelly thought to herself.

"But I didn't come here to talk about Miss J," Lance said that made the two in front of him looked at each other.

"I come here because of Miss Lily."

Chairman John looked at him, his eyes were imploring while Madam Kelly was anticipating. She sensed that she is going to like what this young man in front of them is going to say.

"I come here to ask your permission…" Lance paused for a while. "I mean, to inform you that I will be pursuing your daughter, Lily," Lance said confidently.

Chairman John was rather surprised while Madam Kelly didn't hide her delight. After the encounter last night between Andrew and J, the couple realized that if Andrew and Lily get together in the future, there will be conflicts that the two of them and their families will have to face. Lily is a member of the Society and it was just last night that they realized that Andrew and his family despised the Society.

Now, Madam Kelly regretted matchmaking the two. Although she already received a good scolding from her husband, she cannot back out on her words now. She just had to hope that the two of them would just turn out to be friends. But if not, she knows that things would be hard for Lily if Andrew finds out her affiliation with the organization that he and his family despised.

When she heard that Lance wanted to pursue her daughter, she looked at him with admiration. It was as if he is a savior. She was relieved that Andrew will have a competitor. If Lance turns out to be better than Andrew, then the chances that Lily's attention will be diverted to Lance and she will be saved from possible heartbreak and hatred from Andrew.

So, after a moment of silence, Madam Kelly speaks up. "I give you my blessing!"

The two men turned to look at her shocked. Lance didn't expect it would be this easy. While Chairman John already knew what is running in that brain of her wife.

"That's it? Aren't you going to ask me questions like my family background? Or at least investigate me?" Lance asked confused.

"That is not necessary. I knew my daughter-in-law well. She is not very trusting with people. She only has two friends and one of them is you. So that means she trusts you that much. Even Elder Do, President Martin, and Madam Victoria trusted you with her ever since she was a child. So, I know that I can trust you with my daughter. I feel good about you. You seemed to be a good man."
