Avery woke up at around four in the afternoon.
When she cdown the stairs, everyone was looking at her.
She was slightly taken aback by the attention.
"Why are you guys looking at me?" She touched her face.
She had just woken up, so her face was a little red.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe had quite a good sleep that afternoon, so she was in good spirits, and she was not as upset as before anymore.
No matter what, life still had to go on for her.
Also, so many friends had cto the house to visit them at that moment, so she was very happy.
"Avery! | brought you a gift!" Lilith delivered the gift she had bought for Avery to her. "I did well in the preliminary round this time, so my agent gavea bonus. This is what | got for you from the jewelry store near the airport." Avery opened the box. There were a few bracelets in there in various thicknesses, and they were all embellished with beads in various colors.
All of the bracelets looked especially good when worn together on her wrist.
"Thank you, Lilith. | like it very much." Avery beamed broadly.
Elliot, Ben, and Hayden looked at her together as she smiled.
"Let's have a drink tonight!" Mike walked over, stood next to Elliot, and put his arm on his shoulders. "Do you dare to drink with me?" Elliot knew why he asked him to have a drink with him.
He wanted to stand up for Avery, helping her release her anger.
"You guys should drink less or you'll all be drunk. There is not enough space for so many people to stay over." Avery did not explicitly stop them.
"Doesn't Elliot have a few drivers? Let his drivers give us a lift if we're drunk then!" "It's New Year's now, so only one driver is working." "Oh. Fine, we'll drink less. We'll drink less!" Mike dragged Elliot to the dining room.
Seeing that, Ben immediately followed them. "How can you leaveout if you're drinking?" If Ben did not go over to help, Mike would certainly get Elliot so drunk that he would be half-dead.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLilith did not know that Avery and Elliot had a fight, so she was very confused." Avery, why didn't you stop them? How can they start drinking when it's still bright out? If they were to drink until nightfall, they certainly would be drunk." It was going to be five in the evening soon. The sky was not completely darkened yet, but it would be getting dark very soon.
Avery sat on the couch ?c# ate sfruits. "If they want to drink, then let them be!" "It's fine for Ben and Mike to drink, but didn't Elliot get severely sick previously?" Lilith was worried about Elliot's health.
Although Elliot has not officially acknowledged her as his sister, he accepted her gift that day, and he even agreed to let her stay in his house.
She was quite happy and grateful.
She suddenly felt as if she finally had a family.
"He has already recovered." Avery popped a cherry into her mouth. "Don't worry about them. If something were to happen, they can be sent to the hospital." Lilith felt that Avery seemed to have changed, but when she saw that her eyebrows were slightly raised and she was calm, it seemed like nothing had changed as well.
In the past, she was very protective of Elliot, but she seemed to be very indifferent to him at that moment.
