Morris Jackson asked her, "Is it hard to choose?"
Lyra was somewhat flustered, avoiding his burning gaze, "I just feel, this question is so strange, why do I have to choose...?"
His voice was drowned in the night, "Your family will come back for you one day."
Lyra bit her lip in silence, biting it pale with force... She had no idea what to say to calm herself down, seeking shelter by marrying him, but it seemed like she was sinking deeper and deeper...
Just for a while, she was caught in his tenderness.
The thought of leaving him one day made her heart ache with sadness...
With a strong voice, she said, "Uncle Wu, although we are in a contract marriage, it's not like... not like..." She didn't know how to continue, her emotions were a bit chaotic.
Morris Jackson still kept the promise he made to her, "Since it is a contract marriage, I will let you go if you want to leave in the future, I will keep my word."
