Everyone was instantly rendered speechless. They did not know how to react to Ben's actions. He had actually taken medication
that was meant for women.
"No wonder you apologized so quickly that time. So, you took my pills." Moved, Lilith felt a lump in her throat, and all the
frustration she felt toward him vanished in that instant.
"I'm really just worried about you, Lilith. This isn't about getting a child. Can't you believe me?" Ben noticed the change in her
attitude and immediately took the chance to declare his determination. "I don't care about the others. | only care about you,
because you are my wife."
Lilith whimpered and burst into tears.

Ben immediately dragged her into his arms and consoled her, while the others shot one another awkward looks.
An hour later, dinner ended, and on the way home, Avery could not help but say, "Elliot, do you remember when we were dating?
We fought a lot for a while back then as well."
Elliot thought about it. "Just for a while? | feel like it lasted for a long time."
Avery's expression darkened, and she glared at him.
"I don't think it's a bad thing to argue. As long as we can make up after that, all the fights we had meant something. Everyone is
special in their own way, and for the sake of love, two people would have to learn how to compromise. Isn't that great?"
"Scouples never fight, though. | had a classmate from college who never fought with her boyfriend."
"Maybe not in front of you," Elliot drawled.
"Really? You seem experienced. Where's that coming from?" Avery thought that she knew everything about him after being with
him for so many years. She knew that he was never a playboy and had not dated many women.
"lI don't need experience to know that. Maybe there are couples who don't fight, but they are rare, and | don't envy them. | like our
relationship the way it is," Elliot said.
Avery laughed at the serious expression on his face. "You just like to chase after what's hard to get."
"No." He stared her in the eyes. "| just want you. You are the best woman foreven when we fight."

She did not expect that from him. Though she felt the same, it still required courage for one to say such a thing out loud.
"Honey, | will never fight with you." She wrapped her arms around his neck and gave him a light peck on the lips. "I feel bad every
tyou get mad when we fight."
"I thought you were makingmad!"
"Um... | guess | lose all sense when I'm angry. | didn't want to be the only one who was angry. Besides, you drivemad all the
tas well. If you are as forgiving as you are now, we wouldn't have fought so much."
"You are being fair, at least." Elliot chuckled with his arms around her waist.
"Of course! It's in the past so forget it." Avery buried her face in his neck and took in his unique scent. "How's the hiring of your
assistant going? Once you decide who to hire, why don't we buy our assistants dinner?"
