Bye, My Irresistible Love

Helen‘s POV: 

The next morning, bright and early, Lucy drove me to the hospital to pick up my mother.

"Why don‘t you buy yourself a car? It will help you get around faster and it will be convenient for you to pick up your mother from the hospital straight after work," Lucy suggested on our way to the hospital.

"If you need a loan, you can count on me.When you have some spare time, go and look at the kind of car you would like to have."

"Forget it.I still haven‘t paid you the money I borrowed from you earlier.And it‘s no small sum."

Buying a car was definitely on my to–do list.

As long as I had a car, my life would become easier.I would be able to drive to work, meet clients and pick up my mother on weekends.

But I hadn‘t paid off the money I had borrowed from Lucy earlier.

"I agree that you owe me a substantial sum of money and it will take you a long time to pay me back.So what if I lend you a little more? It won‘t make much difference," Lucy said, applying her peculiar brand of logic.

I was tempted by Lucy‘s offer.

Since my career was on the right track and I had received a salary increment, I would be able to start repaying her soon.

From the small case in Philly to Zhester Technology‘s merger case, Anya had begun paying me commission in addition to my basic salary.If the Spacetime Finance‘s acquisition case rolled smoothly, the commission would be considerable.

"I had planned to pay you back some of the money.Now it seems that I have to pay you back after I finish the Spacetime Finance case and get the commission."

"That suits me fine.I have enough funds now.As a relationship blogger, I often include advertisements in my work and it pays well.The commission I receive for my work is also very high.So I can easily afford to loan you the money to purchase a car.We‘ll go and have a look at cars after we take your mother out of the hospital."

After picking my mother from the hospital, Lucy took us to see the cars.But my mother had a long face.

Why did she look so upset? On the way back, she kept quiet.She kept looking at me as if she wanted to tell or ask me something, but then stopped herself from doing so.

Lucy sensed that something was amiss, so after dropping us off in front of the apartment building, she made an excuse and left.

Although Lucy was careless and reckless, she was afraid of offending elders.

Besides, she had noticed that my mother was upset about something and the atmosphere was becoming more and more tense the whole morning.

So to avoid getting involved in any trouble, she left at the earliest opportunity.

The minute Lucy was out of earshot, my mother asked, "Where is George? Why didn‘t he come with you to pick me up?"
