Avery didn't take this matter to heart.
No matter what Elliot's attitude towards this mother was, she respected and accepted it because she believed that when he made a choice, he must have thought through everything carefully.

Lilith lived at the hotel, so she stayed in the banquet hall and played with her mobile phone, but she didn't leave.
Ben couldn't bear to see her alone, so he walked in front of her.
"Are you waiting for me?" Hearing Ben's voice, Lilith immediately raised her head and asked exasperatedly," What made you think | was waiting for you? "I was joking. | knew you would frown upon hearing this." Ben thought he was being funny.
"You like to annoy me, don't you?" Lilith put away her phone and got up from her chair.
"Are you really annoyed? | was just joking!" Ben followed her, "Where do you live? I'll take you back." "No, I'm staying in this hotel." "Oh, no wonder you didn’t leave in a hurry just now.” Ben followed her out of the banquet hall, "How long will you be back? When will you return to Bridgedale? Your big brother knows you are in Bridgedale. Has he ever looked for you?" "Why do you have so many questions?" Lilith glanced at him from the corner of her eyes, "Is it because you over-ate?" "lI want you to stay for a few more days." Ben scratched his head, "lI want the person who caused your miscarriage to cand apologize to you in person..." "No! No, thank you! Initially, | didn't want that child. She helpedget rid of it so | could concentrate on my career. | am very grateful to her now." Lilith had already thought about it.

"Do you really think so?" Ben felt slightly uncomfortable because he wanted that child. The child was gone, and he felt lost for a long time.
"What else could | have thought?" she asked back, "Are you going to followall the way to my room?" He was stunned for a moment, his face flushed with drunkenness: "I wanted to chat with you. If you are worried, you can leave the door open." "Do you have that serious a desire to talk? What are you going to tell me? You can talk tooutside." Lilith originally wanted to reject him, but seeing him being so cautious somehow softened her heart.
"You didn't answer any of my questions just now!" "I'll stay for a week or so! But if there's nothing to do here, | may return to training ahead of time." Lilith entered the elevator = g+;TIW; pressed the floor where her room was, "As for my eldest brother, he didn't contact me. Didn't you give him a sum of money? He probably won't rememberuntil he finishes spending the money." "Oh... So, both of you don't have a good relationship.” "There is too much of an age difference, there is a generational gap," she gave him a deep look, "Just like you and me." Ben smiled sadly, "I don't think so, though." "Are all of you old men so volatile?" Lilith couldn't understand him, "Didn't you dislikebefore? I've distanced myself from you; isn't that just what you wanted?" "You really misunderstand me. | never despised you... | initially treated you as my sister and hoped you would listen to my plan, but you didn't, so we had a relationship. We had our differences and contradictions, but not a generational gap." Ben explained to her patiently.
"What about now?" Lilith looked at his red face and asked, "What do you think ofnow?" Ben didn't expect her to be so direct, and he couldn't stand it.
He pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose and took a deep breath: "Do you want to hear the truth or a lie?" "I'll tell you the truth if you tellthe truth. I'll tell you a lie if you lie to me. You choose." She shifted her gaze to the elevator display.
With a 'ding', the elevator reached the floor.
