Mr. L's DILEMMA: Can't Help Falling Inlove With You

Chapter 137

Kai regretted it!

He regretted that as he withdrew each step, she was becoming Mrs Manoban by every step!

If five years ago, during their first meeting in England, he had known that he had feelings for her, he would have had the courage to approach her!

Perhaps even two years back, while she was going through life's rock bottom in prison, he could have been more assertive to protect her. Then right now, would not he have been able to
present roses instead of daisies rightfully?

Time could not be rewind, and everything could not be restarted.

After pursuing Lisa for more than ten years, she had finally become Mrs Manoban, yet she did not obtain the expected happiness.

Kai's heart ached for her, but he could not find reasons to persuade himself to snatch her away...

Kai's thoughts were raging, his fingertips were somewhat cold, and his gaze had almost never averted from the woman in front of him.

Jennie, of course, was not aware of the intense internal conflict Kai was having at the moment.

She was about to finish her food when she noticed that Kai had not really started. She then smiled and asked, "Why aren't you eating?" "Did what l order not suit your taste?"

Kai gently put down the knife and fork. He took a paper towel to wipe the corner of his mouth, his phoenix eyes full of smiles. "Nah" "It's appetizing, but compared to eating these, watching you eat opens up my appetite even more..."

Jennie's response was "..."

This was the first time Kai was having a meal with Jennie, and he was quite fascinated by this woman, feeling contented just by watching her eat.

Jennie was a little embarrassed. She lowered her head and smiled. A tiny caviar at the corner of her mouth attracted his attention. He pulled out a paper towel and reached out to help wiped her mouth...

This ambiguous action made Jennie froze.

She blushed slightly and dodged to a side. Smiling, she said, "'I'll do it myself."

As she spoke, she took that paper towel, and when her fingertips accidentally brushed past his palm, the chill sensation stunned her.

The atmosphere instantly froze in awkwardness.

Kai straightened up, and his eyes looked away from her blushing face. To prevent further awkwardness, he started a topic and asked plainly, "Jenjen, I'm sure you called me for a reason. Just let me know how I can help you."

Kai's tone was full of sincerity. Though he did not want to take advantage of another's perilous state, that did not mean that he could not be a good guardian of hers.

Not being able to hold her hands did not mean that he could not secretly safeguard her like a friend!

Jennie paused for a while. She did have a favor to ask of him, but Kai's state at this moment was causing her to be at a loss.

Jennie was no fool, simply behaving ambiguously with another man and pretending to be dumb and sweet!

Kai was a meticulous and extremely self-disciplined man. If it was not because he had some thoughts for her, he would not have
assured her that he would respond to whatever her request was.

Seeing Jennie hesitated, Kai continued to say, "Don't worry. I know my place. I'm treating your request in accordance with the level of a friend. If I can do it, Ill do my best; if I can't, I won't force it too. I won't ask for any repayment because you're Mrs Manoban. This, I'm well aware of."

When Jennie heard that, she heaved a long sigh of relief. She knew that Kai was indeed a gentleman, and the reason he said that was to put her heart at ease.

Jennie lifted the cup and drank two sips before saying softly, "Kim Suho is your elder cousin brother, right?"

Kai did not know why Jennie was asking about Suho. He nodded lightly, "He's with the police force in Major Crimes, and he's the captain."

"I've heard." "Both of you are legendary figures in Luo Hai" Jennie said casually.

Kai chuckled all of a sudden. "Hehe, how embarrassing. Us brothers have liked to play fighting games since young." "lt was as if we have a dream of becoming the savior of the world. He didn't want to inherit our ancestral enterprise and had decided to be a cop, whereas I chose to becomea lawyer. Our younger brother and sister are learning to manage our family-owner company at the moment."

The outside world did not understand these two cousin brothers. They could not comprehend why they did not want to manage such a well off big company but had chosen to become a police, lawyer, and whatnot, coming into contact with vicious people every day, and the wages earned were not even a fragment of the Kim Clan's income...

"I feel that it's rather good to have a dream. I really admire you and Brother Suho."
