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.

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.
"lI 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 find her?" Lilith raised her eyebrows and asked him, "Why does it matter to you if | eat dinner or not?" Ben didn’t know what to answer.
He seemed to be poking his nose into her business, but he didn't mind.
"Hayden, didn't you invest in the company? You are the actual boss behind the scenes! Go tell her that eating less is not a healthy way of staying slim!.
Hayden said coldly, "I don't care." Although he had invested smoney in the company, he was only responsible for the investments, nothing else.
Moreover, Lilith was just skipping dinner, but she did eat breakfast and lunch.

The three went to a restaurant and sat down.
After Ben ordered a table of dishes with the menu, he happily ordered a bottle of red wine.
Lilith thought he was being incredulous. " Are you addicted to alcohol? Would you like to find a few people to drink with you?" "No, I'll just drink a little." "How is a whole bottle of alcohol ‘a little?" "Well, this is not a bar; | can't order a shot, can I?" Ben guessed that she might be distressed by his overspending, so he explained, "I can take it hif | can't finish it, "I don't like drinking." "Didn't you drink well in the days when you worked in the bar?" "Are you sure you want to remindabout that?" Lilith raised her eyebrows, and Ben relented.
"Well, if you don't want to drink it, you can use it to soak your feet." Ben said thoughtfully, "Maybe it can sterilize your feet." "| think you need more of it. You can buy more wine, take a bath with it, and your whole body will be cleansed.
Every part of the body perfectly sterilized." Ben didn’t know what to say.
Hayden sat beside them, listening to the two of them bickering, feeling extremely self-conscious. He already felt full before he even finished half his meal.
