Lenard smiled, shook his head, and simply stared at her more directly and boldly. "Lilith, in fact, you don't have to draw a distance between us."
His words revealed too much information.
If Lilith could not hear the hidden meaning of it, she had lived in vain for so many years. Inadvertently thinking of what Irish had said, she was nervous. She simply did not beat around the bush and looked up at Lenard calmly.
"Lenard, I know our parents have made a mistake. Of course, they want us to be together, but you also know my relationship with Jay."
Lenard smiled at her and nodded.
"You know my relationship with Jay, but you may not know many things. In fact, Jay and I are about to get married, and my mother has promised that as long as he can be transferred back to New York, she will agree to our marriage. Now you see, Jay has returned."
Lenard was thinking. He paused briefly and said, "But why aren't you married?"
