Ben's roar was deafening. Lilith had never considered Ben intimidating, but she shuddered when she saw him in a rage. "Ben, my aunt never eats dinner." Hayden said, breaking the silence, "Even if she does, she only eats fruit at night." Ben was speechless. The corners of his mouth twitched, and his face reddened. Finally, an embarrassed cough escaped from his mouth. Lilith couldn't help but laugh. "Fine, I'll go with you!" Ben was too embarrassed, so he kept walking with Hayden and kept asking about Hayden's studies. Hayden was annoyed by his questioning, so he walked to Lilith's side. Ben had to walk side by side with the two of them. "Lilith, you look so thin and athletic now; there is no need to skip dinner. You can eat less in other meals." Ben finally summoned up the courage to speak to her. "I want to eat too, but my boss won't let me. You go tell him." "Who is your boss?" "My manager." "Who is your manager?" Ben asked. "Do you intend to

In Aryadelle, everyone came to Starry River Villa in the evening with gifts to celebrate Elliot's discharge from the hospital and the reconciliation between Elliot and Avery. After Avery took two doses of medicine, the fever subsided, and she was not feeling so dizzy. She still put on a mask when Tammy came over, though. Tammy was pregnant now and couldn't afford to get sick. "Avery, you must have been too tired recently. When people are too tired, they tend to get sick." Tammy said, "I also caught a cold once before I got pregnant. I also took some medicine. I asked the doctor if the child would be affected. The doctor said that everything was fine since there was no bleeding." "All right. Why didn't Jun come with you?" Tammy heard the question, and the calmness on her face disappeared. "My mother-in-law was hospitalized because I annoyed her too much, and her blood pressure was too high. Jun went to take care of him. I haven't seen him for three days, and I suspe

She smelled the strong scent of wine in his breath. He had been drinking. He looked at her with slightly drunk eyes and said frankly, "I was in a good mood today, and I drank a small glass of wine." "You only stopped taking your medications today..." "Yes, I stopped taking the medicine today, so I drank a little. "He said, wrapping his arms around her waist, "I'm going to sleep with you tonight." "Okay, you've already been drinking; why should you be afraid of the flu?" She teased him, "Did no one will stop you from drinking?" Elliot looked innocent. "No. They drank with me!" Avery was speechless. "Don't be angry. The champagne I drink was not high in alcohol content." "It's still wine! You start messing around once I take my eye off you. Fortunately, I didn't let you go to work. If you were allowed to go to work, I don't know what would happen to you." Elliot looked at her angry expression, leaned down, and kissed her forehead. "You've been chatting wi

The sun shone through the window and lit up the vast living room. A man and a woman were hugging each other and sleeping soundly on the sofa. Suddenly, a rapid and harsh ringtone sounded from the mobile phone. Lilith opened her eyes first. It was her phone that was ringing! She wanted to reach out to find the phone, but her arm was bound by something, so she couldn't move. She opened her eyes immediately, and after seeing what was restraining her, she immediately raised her feet and kicked Ben off the sofa! "Ah!" Ben exclaimed, then opened his eyes. "You bastard!" Lilith jumped off the sofa and scolded Ben, "Think about what happened last night!" Ben looked blank. Last night, he invited Hayden and Lilith to dinner. He ordered a bottle of wine and drank it alone. Hayden ate his kid's meal, and Lilith ate some fruit salad. He felt bored drinking alone, but he didn't want to end the meal so quickly, so he drank one cup after another. Finally, he beca

Elliot's biological mother? Wanda was stunned for a moment. Elliot was not a member of the Foster family; this was well known. His biological father, Nathan, had already been executed. Nothing about his birth mother had ever been reported online. "Bring that woman here; I'll take a look at her," Wanda said to the assistant. The assistant said with a smile, "I knew you would definitely be interested. I'll call the logistics supervisor and ask him to bring her here." After two seconds of silence, Wanda said, "Be quiet about this matter! "Don't worry." The assistant said and went out to make a phone call. In Starry River Villa, Elliot was having a cold today. Avery thought she had infected him, but he thought it was caused by his drinking last night. "How could drinking cause a cold?" Avery was much better today, but seeing Elliot's ill appearance, she blamed herself, "I infected you." Elliot: "It's okay; I don't blame you." "I know you don't. I'll s

Robert stood outside the door and hugged Avery as soon as she came out."Mommy... Play...""Okay, I'll play with you." Avery was afraid that the child would disturb Elliot's rest, so she decided to bring him outside to play.The weather that day was rather good as the sun was bright and it was comfortably breezy.Autumn was just upon them, so the temperature was not as hot as it was in the summer and the difference between day and night was becoming more and more noticeable.Over at Bridgedale, Ben accompanied Lilith to the modeling agency and did not seem to be in a hurry to leave."Didn't you say you were rushing to catch a plane?" Lilith asked."I didn't say I was rushing. I just said the flight is today—tonight, to be precise. I'll leave after having dinner with you tonight." Ben smiled warmly. "Where's your agent? I'd like to meet her."That turned out to be Ben's true purpose.Lilith had no intention of bringing him to see her agent, but speak of the devil and he shall a

Wesley immediately answered the call after seeing who it was."Do you think the subject of you and Shea is a conversation that we should be having right now?" he asked in a low voice. "Shea hasn't even recovered yet, so why are you getting yourself in a twist?"Wesley could only stay silent when he questioned her.It was not Wesley who wanted to discuss that, but Shea, who held on to the hope that everything could be settled.Wesley would not want to dampen her enthusiasm, but indulging in her would cause others to be under the mistaken impression that he was directing everything behind the scenes."Okay. I'll talk with her once she recovers," Wesley said.Elliot did not hang up because he still had doubts."Can you separate your feelings for Avery and Shea?" he asked, "You pursued Avery before. Why would you like Shea now?""Am I barred from liking other women just because I liked Avery before?" Wesley then gave a straightforward answer. "Avery's not just a beautiful woman. Sh

"I didn't tell you beforehand because you're not going to be alone on stage," the teacher explained with a smile. "The emcee will ask you how you raise your children and you'll be invited to share your views on our school. You may answer however you please."Avery nodded. "Okay."She was no stranger to making small talk during official functions.Layla's dance performance ended half an hour later and the audience burst into applause.Avery was invited onto the stage amidst the raucous applause, and she put on a proud and dignified expression.She had recorded Layla's entire performance on her cell phone earlier and felt that she should have brought a DSLR camera if she knew Layla could dance so well.Avery walked to the stage and took the microphone from the emcee."Thank you so much for taking the time out of your busy schedule to participate in our school's activities, Ms. Tate. I wonder if Layla's father is here," the emcee asked with a smile.Laughter ensued following that
