Chapter 724 724: I Will Take Care Of Myself

Joseph enjoyed this beautiful moment with Irish, who was lying in his arms this time.

She looked like a fairy, while the white shirt was as plain as the petals of a lotus. Her skin was so delicate and as soft as silk. The sunshine poured on her long hair, and she was bathed in the sunlight, which made her look more beautiful.

Joseph was pleased to see such a scene in the morning since he thought it was very cozy. However, he didn't get up immediately; instead, he opened his eyes, waiting for the sun to rise. He hadn't seen this beautiful woman wake up in the early morning, bathing in the sunlight.

Yes, Irish was a beautiful yet charming woman.

People always looked indolent when they woke up in the morning, but their indolent look was transient. However, Irish was different from those people since she looked floppy, but she also looked stubborn and undefeated. She was not a superficial woman; instead, she was thoughtful. Joseph was attracted to her.

Staring at his eyes, Irish raised her hand and unbuttoned the button slowly. And soon Joseph soaked himself in her warmth. He could encircle her into his arms as long as he reached his hands. Joseph looked into her eyes and then did that as he thought in his mind.

As she lowered her head to help him unbutton the last button, Joseph reached out and held her gently.

The man's wooden fragrance encircled her, mixed with her breath, and disturbed her mind. She lowered her head and tried to avoid his eyes, pushing him away. However, Joseph did not loosen his grip but tightened his arms.

"Don't come to Cassie. She is busy," said Joseph with a faint smile.

Indeed, it was just an excuse by Irish, so she did not reply to him as he finished his words. "I will take care of myself. I know how to arrange the time," Irish said a few seconds later.

"Wait for me for lunch," He uttered softly.

Shocked, Irish looked at him.

"I know a new restaurant. The food is pretty good," Joseph smiled at her. He paused for a while and then added as if he was afraid that she would escape again, "It is also your duty as a lover to accompany me for a meal."

After hearing his words, Irish's heart was filled with unnamed emotion. She looked upward, staring at him, and then responded after a long while, "Okay."

Joseph grinned, his hand clasped around her head, and he kissed her forehead.

It was a sunny day on the weekend. The fragrance of a flower floated in the air while the breeze sprayed into people's faces.

However, the temperature here varied greatly in a day. It was cold in the morning but getting hot at noon. And so, at night, the temperature dropped down again. The temperature changed greatly in spring. The spring in New York was always short, and it was characterized by a large temperature difference between day and night, even if the sun was always shining brightly.

Someone knocked on the door outside, and when Lilith opened the door, she found that Lenard was standing outside. The cold air rushed into the room soon. Astonished, Lilith did not expect that Lenard would come to her. Nevertheless, she invited him in after a few minutes since she froze for a while.

Lilith acted abnormally and asked him to wait for a moment. A moment later, Lilith walked out from the cloakroom, and she had changed her pajamas and wore a casual suit.

Lenard was looking at the pictures on the wall, and he showed great interest in those photos.

Handing him a cup of tea, Lilith invited him to sit on the couch.

Lenard exchanged pleasantries with her and then added, "Please forgive my abrupt visit."

Lilith shook her head slightly after hearing that and then asked, "Did something happen to Jay?"

She didn't get in contact with him these days and was unsure what had happened between them, but things were so weird. She cared about him, but she could not change this situation. Time changed things quietly, and it was just like things happened between the three of them.

The blind date on Friday shocked Lilith greatly since she never expected that it would be Lenard who would date her. She only knew little things about Lenard, such as his identity as anti-drug police. But she didn't expect that he was born into a notable family. Lilith knew the chain store, but she did not realize that the chain store was a family property of Lenard's family. It was a famous store in America in which many goods entered.

But later, she left with Lenard first at his suggestion. Their parents were all pleased to see that since they knew each other, and all thought that Lilith may have fallen in love with him at first sight.

However, as soon as they walked out of the restaurant, Lilith asked Lenard what was going on that day.

Hesitant, Lenard finally explained to her that he had dreamed of being a policeman since his childhood, but he was the only son in his family, and it was inevitable that he had to inherit his family business. Therefore, he made a deal with his father since he was determined to realize his dream before inheriting his father's business.

Lenard's father was a reasonable man, and he could understand what his son really wanted, so he agreed to his proposal since he thought that Lenard would be stronger after going through all these hardships. What's more, he also hoped that Lenard could adapt to the tough environment in the business circle as soon as possible, and those experiences may be helpful for him.

In all these years, Lenard worked diligently, and no one knew about his real family background at his police station.

A moment later, Lenard told Lilith that he was going to resign. Lilith could see clearly the desolation in his eyes when he said that.

She did not talk too much with him that night, while Lenard also drove her back early.

But Lilith didn't expect that Lenard would come to her tonight abruptly. Lilith was clear that it may be her parents who told Lenard her address.

However, Lenard just smiled, shook her head slightly, and then continued, "In fact, I want to buy some clothes. Could you go with me?"

Shocked, Lilith was silent for a while with her mouth open.

Seeing this, Lenard hastily explained that it was his first time to be here. And he was busy with his work during the weekdays, so he wanted to go shopping on the weekend and buy some shirts. But he was new here and had few friends. It was impossible to ask Jay to go with him, and the only person he could remember was Lilith.

It was not until then Lilith remembered that Lenard's family settled down in Washington, and he also spent his childhood there. When he grew up and started working, he was appointed to Florida.

As soon as Lenard finished his sentence, Lilith was about to call Jay, asking him if he was free. However, she turned hesitant when she was going to dial his number.

Standing there motionlessly, Lenard was waiting for her reply. She nodded slightly a moment later.
