大神同学想被吃掉的樱花

Jay felt so guilty since he was clear that it wasn't her fault. Lilith did nothing wrong.

It was also hard for Jay to be so cruel to Lilith. Her sobs disturbed his heart as a sharp knife pierced him. Jay felt so painful that he turned around, his eyes looking sorrowful.

Lilith bore a glimmer of hope when she found that Jay finally turned around, so she loosened her grip for a little bit and then buried herself into his arms, with her cheeks against his chest.

Raising his hand, Jay held her face and said in a husky voice, "Lilith, could you still accept me like this?"

Staring at his eyes, Lilith quivered and opened her mouth, but soon tears came up again. She nodded and then replied, "Yes. I love you, Jay. I can't live without you."

Gazing at her for quite a long while, Jay's eyes became firm gradually and then turned deep as the broad night sky. He touched her forehead to her thin lips gently yet slowly as if he was touching his treasure. Jay was in love with her every inch of skin indeed, but at the right moment, Jay was like saying goodbye to her.

Lilith looked into his eyes, trying her best to read his mind. However, she failed every time since tears always blurred her eyes. She blinked but still couldn't see his face very clearly.

"Jay, you said that we will get married as soon as you finish your task. You promised me," Lilith murmured in a choky voice.

Jay lowered his head and then kissed her forehead.

They kept the posture for quite a long while, and then Jay loosened his grip. Staring at Lilith, Jay looked hesitant yet painful, but finally, he said in a shaky but resolute voice, "I am so sorry, Lilith."

As soon as he finished his sentence, Jay pushed her away and turned to leave, ignoring Lilith, who cried out in anguish at parting.

Jay was unable to ask for her forgiveness because he was clear about how cruel he was.

Before Jay was about to talk about marriage to Lilith's mother, her mother went to him first.

Jay was going to perform a task, and he didn't expect that Kelly would come to him.

They went to a coffee house while Kelly handed him an envelope, which was filled with stuff.

Confused, Jay took it over, but Kelly asked him to open it.

His face blanched as he opened it.

"Don't misunderstand me. I didn't mean to humiliate you," Kelly started. She was a smart woman, and she could read Jay's mind. After a small pause, Kelly continued, "I know you did much for Lilith, and you even quit your favorite job, so it is just a small gift for you to show my appreciation."

Jay was clear that Kelly might bring him a piece of bad news. If she really agreed with Lilith to get married to him, she would not come to him today alone.

Therefore, Jay returned the envelope to her and said, "I am not going to take your money. You can talk whatever you want to talk."

After hearing this, Kelly decided to go straight to the point, "You may have learned something about the Lake family through Irish. Great changes have taken place in our family, and the backbone of our family passed away, and then Joseph now runs the company. Although Roy is designated as the chairman, in fact, he doesn't have any power, which means that he can't participate in some important decisions. Some skeleton staff in Runestone Group are Joseph's trusted followers since most of them are promoted by him. They were loyal to Joseph as if the army had to be loyal to their leader. I don't care about the relationship between Joseph and your sister, let alone expect him to take into account our feelings. When Joseph started to rectify the board of directors, I knew that our family's position at Runestone Group was in jeopardy."

Jay also heard of it. Henry's death shocked the public, and it was big news in commercial circles since Henry died suddenly.

Jay heard this news in Florida, and he only worried about his sister Irish and Lilith at that time. But he also knew that Lilith would be protected by her parents. However, though Irish bore a grudge against Henry, it was an indelible fact that Henry was her natural father. She must be upset; after all, she lost her father.

Jay knew Irish well. If she really didn't care about Henry, she would ignore all this and would never feel sad about Henry's death.

Kelly stared at Jay as she finished her words, but then she added, "I know you are a good man. Honestly, I have decided to let Lilith marry you when you return. But I didn't expect such a misfortune to occur to my family. You are a man with strong responsibility, and I really admire you because of your achievement at such a young age. But I still have to express my worries. You are a good policeman, but it doesn't mean you could be a good husband. What do you think?"

"You think I can't give Lilith a happy life?" Jay asked directly in a polite tone.

"Happiness means too much. Some people will feel happy for a delicious meal, and some people regard a healthy body as their happiness, while the happiness of others needs a material guarantee. Lilith belongs to the latter." After a small pause, Kelly heaved a sigh and continued, "Perhaps you may think I am not a qualified mother. But you have to trust me that I am the one who knows my daughter best. I know what kind of life she wants, so I have to make this decision for her for the sake of her future life. Please understand me."

"Actually, Lilith is like a flower in a greenhouse, and we always protect her. That is her life. Let me be more specific. Lilith has been living a luxurious life since she was born, and all the schools she attended were aristocratic. Her classmates all come from notable families, so the world and things she interacts with are different from those of ordinary people. We also feel pleased since Lilith remained a kind-hearted child and didn't become a materialist. But she also has to pay for it since she has never seen the deformed side of this world. We are very strict with her. You are her first boyfriend since she is not allowed to fall in love with others during her school years. And she never went out for a drink with others. We hired some good physical exercise teachers and beauticians to help her keep a slim figure and maintain her skin because we want to cultivate her physical and internal beauty. We all hope she can become a brilliant woman. Although she studied under a work-study program in college, she's not short of money. Do you think it is the same for a girl from a rich family and a poor girl to study in a work-study program? Absolutely, it is not the same case. It is just a habit of Lilith, and she is also worried that her classmates would think she is a person good for nothing."
