An hour later, Elliot and Avery left the hotel and headed for the airport.
They were heading toward Kanton, a neighboring country next to Aryadelle and the flight would only take three hours. As it was
situated in a beautiful location, it had never been short of tourists.
Avery knew plenty of her friends who had been to Kanton before, but she had not been there personally.
"Have you been to Kanton before?" She asked Elliot.
"No. That place is known to be a spot for couples."
"So | heard. Judging from the photos, the ocean looks beautiful there. I've always wanted to be there, but there's never been a
chance." Avery was excited about their trip. "There's no tdifference, either. | really hate jet lag. My head hurts every single
t| need to adjust to the tdifference."
"It is a headache, but Kanton isn't exactly the most beautiful country." Elliot had not been to Kanton because he wasn't interested

"Can you stop being such a buzzkill? We are going there for our honeymoon!"
"I'm happy to be with you wherever we go. It's not like I'm here to sightsee."
Avery's heart melted at his words. "Darling, can you stop being so mean to Eric?" Seeing that he was in a good mood, she took the
opportunity to bring it up. "Eric will be staying in our house for these two days to help look after the kids. I've always seen him as
my little brother..."
"I know that you do, but he doesn't feel the same." Elliot had never doubted Avery's feelings toward him, but had never shown Eric
any kindness because he knew that Eric was in love with Avery.
"Maybe that's the case before, but he's already given up onnow! We rarely contact each other. If we count our wedding out,
the last t| spoke to him was when he went to Bridgedale for a blind date."
Elliot felt slightly reassured by Avery's words. "I'll be more friendly with him in the future, then."
"Yeah. He's really innocent and just kind of looks atin a different light because | saved his life before. He probably can't tell if
he likesas a woman, or simply feels grateful toward me," Avery said.
"If he can't tell the difference, you will have to help him."
"He can tell the difference now. That's why he hasn't contactedas frequently. Elliot, everyone on this plknows that I'm
your wife, so just relax!"
"Yeah."
Back in the event hall inside the hotel, though Elliot and Avery were already gone, the guests had stayed. It was Christmas and
everyone was gathered around, so they refused to leave until they had drunk to their hearts' content.
"Lilith, I shouldn't let Ben drink at all. You two are getting ready to get pregnant, so it's best that you both stay out of alcohol and
any type of medication for at least three months to prepare your bodies for it... but Ben has to drink because it's your brother's
wedding day... I'm getting tired now, so | need to head back. Remember to send Ben home. If he gets drunk, you can both just stay

remind Lilith about getting pregnant.
"I get it. You should go hand rest!" Lilith wanted to see them out.
"Stay. If you get tired, just take Ben and leave first. Mike and the others can attend to the guests," Helen whispered.
"Yeah."
Once Ben's parents left, Tammy went to tease Lilith, "your mother-in-law is urging you to give birth!"
"This will have to wait until after we get married," Lilith said. "She said that we need to stay off alcohol, cigarettes and medicine for
three months."
"Haha, who on earth would actually follow that kind of rules in real life?" Tammy mocked. "Jun smokes every day and I still got
pregnant anyway. Just relax."
Tammy noticed Ben stumbling his way toward them and said, "your old baby is on his way here." Before leaving.
