Enchanted By His Charm Chapter 1006 1006: You Aim To Deal With Roy



Looking at Jay, William was embarrassed and said, "Jay, thanks for taking care of Lilith."

"I just did what I should do," replied Jay politely.

Kelly pouted her mouth and chid in, "It seems Lilith is in a stable state, so I think it is ti to take her back since it is not convenient for her to live here for a long ti."

"Mom!" Lilith was anxious and tried to persuade her mother.

"Lilith, don't interrupt ," Kelly suggested.

Lilith bit her lip nervously, glancing at Jay, hoping to find support in his eyes. However, Jay remained composed and responded, "It's not the right ti yet. Her drug addiction is still ongoing, and she experiences it daily at a specific ti."

"If it occurs at a fixed ti, I think we can handle it," continued Kelly.

"How? Do you still want to provide drugs to her?"

Kelly flushed imdiately as soon as Jay finished his sentence.

"Aunt Kelly, Lilith was kidnapped because of , and I feel responsible for her. I promise you that I will do everything in my power to help her quit drugs and regain her previous self," Jay declared firmly, his determination shining through his words.

Lilith tugged on her mother's shirt and pleaded, "Mom, I want to stay here." Her eyes were filled with a mixture of fear and desperation, longing for a sense of safety and stability.

Kelly glared at her daughter while Lilith lowered her head.

After contemplating for a mont, William reached a decision and handed the card to Jay. With a sincere tone, he spoke, "Jay, both Kelly and I are concerned about you. We understand that you must be exhausted from everything that has happened recently. Take this card and use it to buy whatever you need. Consider it a gesture of support and care."

"It's really not necessary to give the card. I have already expressed that it is my duty to take care of Lilith," Jay replied, politely declining William's offer.

Although Kelly was reluctant to leave Lilith behind, she understood that it was the best decision for her daughter's well-being. Reluctantly, she agreed to let Lilith stay with Jay.

Lilith embraced Jay with her head leaning on his shoulder after her parents left. "Jay, I am so afraid right now."

"Why?" Jay felt itchy in his chest.

Lilith licked her lips and looked up into his eyes. "I am afraid you will ask to go ho with my parents."

"Lilith, you still need ti to recover."

"But what if I have recovered?" Lilith continued to ask.

Jay lowered his head, staring at her red lips. "Do you want to drive you back?" asked Jay in a low voice, with his Adam's Apple bobbing slightly.

Lilith's heart twitched, and then she lowered her head without saying anything.

Jay also remained silent, lowering his head to kiss her gently.

Lilith shrugged while Jay moved aside slightly.

"Lilith, I am not going to leave you alone this ti," Jay mumbled.

Lilith's eyes were filled with tears soon.

In Key Group.

The window sheltered the bustling scene outside.

Leo leaned on the couch with a cigarette in his hand. However, he didn't even take a smoke, and he didn't realize it until it burned out. Leo threw the snipe to the ashtray, and his furrowed eyebrows smoothed for a little bit.

He took out his phone and made a call.

The phone connected quickly, and a deep voice emanated from the other end of the line.

"Now I am sure you are playing a trick to get money," said Leo in an emotionless tone.

"Don't speak as if you've done a favor. You simply coerced Joseph into leaving Runestone Group," the man's voice dripped with irony. He continued, "But rest assured, now that I have accepted your paynt, I will handle the situation accordingly. Joseph is a capable individual, and he may attempt to return to Runestone Group. If that happens, we will need to take further asures. Rember, he has not been convicted yet, and he will likely hire top-notch lawyers. As long as he remains in this field, he will be a stumbling block that we must overco."

Leo was annoyed to hear the man's speech, and when he was about to say sothing, soone knocked on the door.

"Co in."

It was Fredrick. Leo asked him to close the door and then said to the man at the other end of the phone, "Take the money, and I don't need you to do anything for . Just quit your decision, and I don't need him to give up his job in this field."

"It appears that you are seeking retribution," the man asked.

"Yes, you are correct. Regardless of any past disputes between you before, consider the money as compensation," Leo responded in a cold and detached tone.

The man burst into laughter, his tone filled with amusent. He then remarked, "Since you suddenly have a change of heart towards Joseph, I won't trouble you any further. By the way, thanks for the money."

Without uttering a word, Leo promptly ended the call, cutting off any further conversation.

Fredrick also heard their conversation. Confused, he sat down and then asked, "Leo, what do you an?"

"Nothing," replied Leo briefly.

"But why do you ask him to stop?" continued Fredrick.

Leo took the smoke and responded calmly. "Joseph has left Runestone Group. That's enough."

Fredrick felt a sense of absurdity upon hearing Leo's conversation. "Leo, you initially ntioned wanting to defeat him. But now, do you only want him to leave the Runestone Group?" Fredrick questioned, seeking clarification.

"What's wrong?" said Leo, who raised his eyebrows.

Fredrick leaned forward, emphasizing his point. "Don't be so naive. Do you think that's enough? Joseph will undoubtedly make a coback sooner or later, as long as he remains in this field," Fredrick stressed, underscoring Joseph's potential resilience and determination.

Leo stared at Fredrick with a faint smile.

Fredrick shivered under his gaze, and his eyebrows knitted into a knot, "Am I wrong?"

Leo kept taking a smoke and snorted indifferently, "It seems that you are not just going to deal with Roy."

Fredrick squinted slightly but said nothing.

"Indeed, you want to kill two birds with one stone, right?" asked Leo directly.

"What do you an?" Fredrick asked in reply.

"You aim to deal with Roy, but simultaneously, you also desire to defeat Joseph. However, you know that Joseph is not an easy opponent to handle, so you have chosen to collaborate with . You understand that if Joseph departs from Runestone Group, Roy will lose his supporter," Leo paused briefly before continuing, "Hence, the true target you intend to confront is Joseph."

Fredrick clenched his hands and responded calmly, "You have the sa goal as . Are there any problems?"
