"Yup!” Both people fell into deep conversation.
Ben, who was sitting by the door, felt uneasy listening in on them.
"Lilith, can | talk to you in private? We should solve our problems on our own, there is no point involving others," said Ben.
"Uncle Ben, Lilith is also my Aunt, why are you so hard on her?" asked Layla.
"My darling, I'm only trying to solve problems. Relax, | won't hurt her," said Ben.
"Really? How are you planning to solve the problem? Are you planning on running away like my dad?" asked Layla.

"So are you trying to say that I should take responsibility and marry Lilith?" asked Ben.
"That would depend on if Aunt Lilith is interested in you or not. It's not like she would definitely agree to take your hand in marriage," replied Layla.
Ben did not know what to say to that.
"Just think of how young and beautiful Aunt Lilith is, you, on the other hand, | remember you are even slightly older than my dad.
Uncle Eric told me that old men are sly, pragmatic, proud, and sensitive. That's why | think age is one of your biggest downfalls," said Layla.
Ben stared at Eric, "Why are you talking to her about this? Just because you are young? "Yes," replied Eric, unfazed.
Ben was once again at a loss of words.
"Lilith, if you don't want to talk to me in private, let's talk here! There's no need to keep living in Avery's house. Didn't you say you liked my house, you can live at my house," proposed Ben.
"What about you?" asked Lilith.
"Didn't you say that you were afraid of living alone? | can live together with you! In the later stages of pregnancy, you are going to need somebody living with you in case there are any emergencies," said Ben.
Ben, after a whole night of insomnia, decided that the best course of action would be to get Lilith back to his house first. At least he has to make sure that she gives birth to the child safely.
"We are not married. Why should we live together?" asked Lilith.
"Are you trying to force me to marry you? If that's the case, | can marry you, under one condition, you can't in any way try to influence my life! I can't st Mrs. Cooper walked over with Robert in her arms.

Lilith could not help but feel embarrassed by Ben, she dragged Ben to a quiet place.
"Lilith, you should know that with what's up with your brother, Avery can't spare any time to take care of you. Also, Hayden and Layla are both busy with school, don't you think that you should not make their lives any harder? Come live with me, no matter what you want, if it's something | can do, I'll be sure to do it for you," explained Ben.
"I know! | know! With that sweet-talking mouth of yours, why did you fail to get together with your first love?" asked Lilith.
"Probably because of karma, that's why | ended up with you," retorted Ben.
At the same time, Elliot just finished his CT scan, he walked out of the room and was shocked to find out that he still had the black notebook that Avery handed him.
Elliot stared at the notebook in his hand for a few seconds, before finally opening up the notebook.
Other than his own handwriting, there was also another elegant handwriting that probably belonged to Avery.
The reason he guessed that it was Avery's handwriting was because of the content.
They were mostly secrets of Avery.
