Avery answered the phone, and Tammy's voice boomed happily through the speakers. "Avery, you can bring your children to my house tomorrow to play! | have rejected all my relatives!" Avery glanced at Ben and Lilith and agreed immediately.
"Tomorrow, we'll go to Tammy's house and let Lilith go to Ben's." She discussed with Elliot, "Ben's parents want to see Lilith." Elliot listened to her arrangements.
"Didn't you say you had an injury on your head and didn't want to go out?" "It doesn't hurt that much today. Tammy's house is fine." She said and told him to go to the dining room for dinner.

"Avery, 1 can go to Tammy's house with you tomorrow!" Lilith interrupted," Otherwise, | would have to go to Ben's house alone.
That's going to be embarrassing!" Avery pulled her aside.
"He toldjust now that his parents want to see you. You should think about it tonight. If you go to Tammy's house with us tomorrow, we will go to Ben's house the day after tomorrow. Ben toldspecifically to tell you to go to his house. I'm afraid it's unavoidable." Lilith frowned: "Today, my agent calledand askedto return to Bridgedale for training as soon as possible. Then I'll go to Ben's house tomorrow! I'll leave the day after tomorrow." "Okay. Go get dinner first!" "Didn't my brother go to get his dinner? I'll eat later. I'm afraid we'll be awkward when we meet." Lilith said, walking to Ben, "I'm going to your house tomorrow, but not as a girlfriend. | didn't promise to be your girlfriend.” Ben pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose and blushed slightly: "It's just a New Year's greeting; you don’t have to be so nervous." "Oh, no matter how simple things are, if they cout of your mouth, they won't be simple anymore," Lilith said.
Ben: "lI wondered why I've been so tired these past two days. Cto think of it; it's probably because | don't have the pleasure of arguing with you." Lilith said, "If | weighed 300 pounds >g&; RNV< had a face of a toad, | doubt you would still have any fun." Ben chuckled. "Lilith, given how you speak, ordinary men dare not marry you." Lilith snorted. "Do you think | want to get married? | can get as many men as | want when I'm rich." Ben was speechless.
Avery couldn't help laughing.
Ben felt defeated and left with a sigh.
In the evening, after taking a bath, Avery helped Elliot to apply his medicine.
Elliot's head injury was recovering well.

"Avery, you took Hayden to the hospital today. Did you check your injury? It's better to do a scan." He said, "Isn't there a hospital near Tammy's house? We'll go to her house tomorrow, and I'll take you over to check after we eat." During the day, Avery remembered Hayden saying that Elliot didn't care about her.
She never felt that way.
At least from long ago to the present, she knew he always had feelings for her.
T would have recovered even if you had beatinto a coma." She laughed, "Let's celebrate the New Year!" "Avery, I'm sorry." He blamed himself, "I'll drink less alcohol in the future." "The problem is hitting me, not drinking." She put the medicine on him and put it away.
"If I didn’t drink, maybe | could control myself," he explained.
The corners of her mouth twitched, and she sneered, "You think too highly of yourself, whether you're drunk or not; as long as someone provokes you, you'll be impulsive." "Really?" He breathed, "When | beat Mike, why did you throw yourself in front of him? "If Mike had hit you first, maybe I'll throw myself in front of you too." "Just maybe?" He was not satisfied with her answer, but soon, he said again," Whether you helpor not, | don't need you to help me. Avery, if | ever hurt you seriously, how will | ever look you straight in the eyes?"
