"I never said anything about not giving birth! Why are you crying?" She was instantly overwhelmed by guilt when she saw the
tears in his eyes. She wiped his tears away and whispered, "lI won't ever call you old again, okay? Stop crying. | don't know what to
do when you act like this."
"Just givea kiss."
"You are taking advantage of me..." Feeling both amused and helpless, she said, "I've never seen you cry before, and now that
you've started, you can't seem to stop!" She cupped his cheeks and planted a kiss on his lips.
"You stink... Go shower!" She said with a disgusted tone, before realizing that she might hurt his pride again and explaining, "I'm
disgusted by the smell, not you..."
Ben's lips curled into a smile at her explanation. "Honey, my head is spinning. | can't move. Helpshower!" Ben sprawled across
the bed.

Lilith wanted to refuse, because Ben had always taken care of her and never let her do anything ever since they started dating, but
since he was drunk because of her brother's wedding, she decided to compromise.
"I can wipe your body with a wet towel or something, | guess..." She glanced at his cheek hesitantly. "Why don't | just help you to
the bathtub for a bath instead? You need to wash your face and brush your teeth... | can't do all that with you lying on the bed."
All the romantic fantasies in Ben's head were instantly shattered. "You are right, Honey."
Though it wasn't as romantic as he had pictured, he could sense her love toward him from how obedient she acted and from the
kiss she gave him earlier.
At nine in the next morning, Lilith woke from her rumbling stomach and headed out of the room for breakfast.
When Helen saw her, she immediately smiled and said, "how's Ben? | wanted to check on him last night, but didn't want to
interrupt you two from resting."
"He's still asleep," Lilith said and yawned. "I don't even know how much he drank. It's the first tI've seen him that drunk."
"He drank two rounds, actually," Helen said. "He started drinking yesterday noon. | already told him to take it easy because he's
bound to drink again at night. He wouldn't listen."
"I see. Don't worry, though. He didn't vomit or anything, just acted a little weird. He should be fine once he wakes up." Lilith walked
into the dining room and the nanny immediately served her breakfast.
Helen sat down next to her and whispered, "Lilith, | heard that Ben cried last night... It's been over ten years since | last saw him
cry."
"How do you know? Isn't the bedroom soundproof?" Lilith said sheepishly.
"Huh? He cried after coming has well? | heard from Tammy." Helen scowled. "Why did he cry? How upset can he be?"
"Why did Tammy tell you this?"

"She said you didn't reply to her message and was worried about you, so she called me," Helen said. "Lilith, Ben can handle his
liquor and doesn't act out even when he's drunk. He only acted that way last night because he loves you too much. Don't wrong
him!"
"I am definitely going to be with him for life since we are getting married," she said shyly. "I know that he loves me. | will treat him
well."
"I know that you are a wonderful young lady from the first t| saw you."
The two chatted happily and Ben walked outside sleepily after stime.
"Lilith, why didn't you sleep for a while longer? | thought you were on holiday?"
She glanced at him and blushed as she recalled what happened the night before. "I was starving, so | cout for breakfast. Are
you sober now?"
"Yeah." He scratched his head, his cheeks burning. "Did | say something last night?"
"You said plenty last night, but | don't really remember all of it. Tammy should know, though. She filmed you," Lilith said.
