"Enough to know what happened." Lily answered.

Isaac stared at her before letting out a sigh. "I want you to explain things. To him."

"Then go ahead and see him."

"Aren’t you even interested to know what happened? At least a little curious?"

Lily rose from her seat. "I see no point in talking like this." She turned her back on the old man and took a step away from him.

"He is in danger." As expected, the old man’s words made Lily stop walking. "I wanted to warn you about it. I would assume that he already told you about the Zhou Family. Since you came into Zhuo Jingren’s life, his media appearance had increased. The privacy that he established before you arrived crumbled."

"Are you saying that you want me to leave him?" Lily said as she turned towards the old man again.

"I am not going say that. You should know the best thing that you should do to protect him. As a woman, you are bound to support your husband, not put him in harms way. Everything that he did so far was because of you. To protect you. I don’t want to..."

"No." Lily interrupted him. "I am not leaving my husband." She then slowly sat on her chair.

"As I said..."

"What you say doesn’t matter." Lily said. "You think too highly of yourself, Mr. Lee. Your opinions do not matter. Not to me... or him."

"I only want to protect him. Your presence is ruining the balance. It is not making him think logically." In response Lily narrowed her eyes at the old man.

Everything that the old man said was actually true. Since she came, Zhuo Jingren had become irrational, and it had affected the privacy that he always wanted to maintain before. Everything that Zhuo Jingren did was all because of her. However, if this old man thinks that she would leave Zhuo Jingren at the first sign of danger, then he is wrong. So wrong.

Lily will stand beside her husband- not behind, not in front but beside him.

She would stand beside him and that is something that she already promised to herself. Of course, she would not let the old man know this.

"You should know that the Zhou Family have very powerful enemies. Zhuo Jingren... His influence could only protect him in Hong Kong and maybe mainland China. Once he is out of the..."

"No. For the last time, I am not leaving him." Why would Lily leave her own husband? Lily was wondering why the old man would even think that his words could convince Lily. "Zhuo Jingren is not dumb, he knows that he is doing. While I don’t appreciate you meeting me this way. I appreciate that you have at least shown a little concern about him. But, at the same time, I also found it funny. For thirty-one years, you were not in his life. He stood alone as he established his name in the business industry. Why start caring now?"

"Zhuo Jingren is a very private person. I was looking for him for a very long time now. He changed his last name, and I never thought that he would be very successful right now. Without that accident in Japan where he tried to save you and ended up falling, I wouldn’t have known that he was still alive."

"I see." Lily nodded. How could she miss Isaac’s words about him saving her? "Well... we have already established the fact that I am not leaving him. I am a busy woman Mr. Lee... I still have business to attend to."

"Are you really going to ignore my words and continue acting like this has nothing to do with you? Did you just listen to what I said? You are his weakness. The loose end that his enemies could always take care anytime. If the enemies will target you, I am sure he would do everything to protect you. He would even sacrifice himself! For you! All for you!" Veins started to appear in Isaac’s forehead. "He would catch a bullet for you. The least that you could do is keep him safe. Leave him."

"Your sense of entitlement is already a delusion Mr. Lee." Lily stifled a laughter before she shook her head. "What do you think will he do to you once he knows that you are seeing me just to convince me to leave him?"

"You just arrive in Hong Kong and the first thing that you did is plan something that will break your grandson’s heart. What a pity." Lily added.

"A broken heart is better than being dead." Mr. Lee said. "He will survive."

"Well... next time that you want to do something like this, please consider the fact that you are practically non-existent to him. You don’t matter and neither does your opinion."

"I know convincing you would be hard." Isaac Lee uttered. "I am only thinking for the best possible way that I could protect him. I think you would understand that. If you care you for him, you would understand that."

Lily said nothing as she only looked at the old man blankly. In fact, she understood his point. Lily was another high profile identity. Together with Zhuo Jingren, they are bound to attract some attention from the business community. "I am wondering if you know that once again, you are trying to take control of his life now, right? This ruined your daughter’s life before. Are you planning to ruin Zhuo Jingren’s life too? Is this some kink that you secretly have?"

As expected, the old man was rendered speechless at Lily’s words. He stared at her for a few minutes before he rose from his seat. His face was devoid of any expression. "It was nice meeting you Miss Qin. I really hope that you would somehow think about everything that I said. I know you are a smart woman. If you truly care for him... you would do what is best for him."

"Hmmm..." Lily only nodded at the man’s words. "I agree with you on that matter. Zhuo Jingren deserves the best... and that best is me." Lily uttered, her gaze straight towards the old man as her lips lifted into a taunting smile.
