Before, she would call him right now or send him a text message. Now she could only look at her phone and do nothing.
Before, he would call her and ask whether he would be back and when. If something were delayed, he would call her and keep her informed, but now he would not do it anymore.
Something seemed changed and seemed no change.
As Lilith put it, they two got unfamiliar with each other.
And just at this time, the patient cried.
Lilith also called her. She also wept.
For the time being, there was sobbing around her.
Irish had no other way. She just held the phone and called Christy in to comfort the patient. She came out of the room hurriedly.
In the corridor, Lilith's crying sounded clear and miserable.
Irish asked about the reason. Lilith couldn't explain it well while crying. She just said, "Does Jay change his mind? Does he break up with me for not loving me anymore? Irish, please help me. I don't want to lose Jay."
Did Jay change his mind?
Irish didn't think so.
She knew her cousin well. Jay would be the last to betray his lover one day.
Irish knew his ex-girlfriend, and at that time, Irish opposed it. She didn't like that girl because she thought she was not a girl who would like to be with Jay for a lifetime.
Jay was kind to her and tried his best to satisfy her, but she was not so and often quarreled with Jay. However, Jay didn't offer to break up with her, and in the end, that girl threw him off.
Lilith was lovelier than his ex-girlfriend. Would Jay abandon her? It was impossible.
Irish had to comfort Lilith and tell her not to think too much.
However, Lilith mentioned "Carmen", which made Irish feel strange. Then, knowing the basic situation, she told Lilith that she would ask more from Jay.
After the call, Irish called Jay immediately.
Jay was at work, and it was a little noisy on the call. She asked directly, "Who is Carmen?"
Keeping silent for a while, he said, "Did Lilith call you?"
Irish sighed. It seemed that Lilith didn't cheat her. She said, "It's lucky that Lilith called me directly. If she acts as Cassie, I will feel more worried."
Jay said, "Please help me to comfort her."
Irish could figure out that there were problems with their relationship. She asked why they broke up and whether it had something to do with Carmen. Jay didn't answer her and just stopped talking.
In the end, he said, "No need to bother you."
Not having gained useful information from Jay, Irish called Lilith again. Lilith was still crying, and she felt so sorry for her.
She asked, "Do you love Jay?"
Lilith answered with certainty, "Yes, of course."
Irish had to say, "If you still love him, please just tell him unless you can prove that he doesn't love you any longer."
Lilith said while crying, "I don't believe that he doesn't love me."
Irish said, "So you should do something. Go ahead."
Finally, Lilith felt better. Putting the phone down, Irish sighed.
Love was really torturous.
It would make the coward brave and the brave coward. Lilith was the former, while Irish became the latter.

Finally, Lilith took great courage to find Jay in the Police Office.
As she arrived there, Jay was back from outside. He hadn't thought that she would come to his work, so he felt surprised.
Soon he pulled her into the office.
Lilith embraced him before Jay spoke, and she just held his arms tightly.
Jay put his hands down. He felt terrible and asked, "Why do you come here?"
Lilith's face was attached to his bosom. She said with a choke, "Let's get together. Okay?"
Jay also felt hurt.
He saw Lilith's withered face. She got thinner and didn't pay attention to her look as usual. He hated himself that he hurt her so much.
"Lilith..." He called her with a light voice, "Please go back first. I'm now on my duty."
"Will you find me after work as usual?" Lilith stared at him with a pitiful look.
Jay kept silent.
Lilith felt more sorrowful.
She was totally put into the darkness and couldn't see the edge and hope.
"Jay." Her voice was trembling. She pulled his clothes like a deserted child. She tried her best to resist her tears, "I will listen to you. Do not leave me. I love you, and I can't leave you."
Jay felt so choked that he couldn't say anything.
He really wanted to promise it, nod and hold her tightly, but he couldn't make it.
He felt so helpless.
This sense of helplessness exhausted him, and he had no strength to counter it.
He opened his mouth and couldn't say anything.
Someone knocked at the door, and someone pushed in, "Jay..."
He stopped when he saw the scene in the office.
Jay stood still while Lilith cried.
The police felt very embarrassed. He cleared his throat and apologized, and then he left the room.
Lilith didn't care whether she would be laughed at or not. She just thought that if Jay could turn around, they would be as happy as usual.
She still held him tightly.
"Jay, it doesn't matter if you have no time to find me. Please just call me. Please call me after work. Let's have dinner together."
Jay didn't want to push her, but he had to do so.
"Lilith, I..."
"Sir, I'm sorry that I need to interrupt you." The inquirer didn't go away, and he just pushed the door again anxiously and reported.
Jay turned around, "What happened?"
"There is some problem with Carmen. It is suggested that you should deal with it."
Jay frowned.
Lilith stared at his face. Carmen was just like a knife in her heart. There was a little voice within her heart: Please do not go away...
However, Jay soon turned around and looked at her, "You can go first. I will find you."
Then he put the cap on his head and walked out of the office anxiously.
Lilith felt so disappointed when she just saw Jay's back. She clenched her fists and followed him.
Out of the office, she found that Jay had been in the car. However, she was determined to follow him and just drove her car behind.

How to pay back your boyfriend who betrayed you?
Irish talked about this topic with Cassie as they were still students.
Cassie kept the promise that she would leave him immediately, while Irish replied that she would make him pay. Irish said she would use up his money.
Cassie answered, "Money will bring no happiness."
Irish said again, "I will bury a bomb in his house."
Cassie replied, "It is hard to buy a bomb. Do you want to research it by yourself?"
