"Don't underestimate yourself. You are different from anyone else to him," Avery said and cup with a perfect way to describe their relationship. "You are not brothers by blood, but are closer than real brothers." Avery's gentle eyes and voice had filled Ben with guilt. "You are right. We are close, so | can tell you for sure that he's only ever loved you. You are the only one he wants to grow old with." Avery was a bit confused as to why he was talking about such a thing. His words had somehow reminded her of Ruby. It was the first of May today and Ruby's baby was either about to be born or had already been born.

As though someone had cast a spell on him, he instinctively answered, "she did. She had a daughter." Avery didn't expect to get an answer from Ben. Instantly, her dazed mind sobered as she stared at Ben in surprise. "How do you know? Did Elliot tell you that?" Ben knew that he had let it spill and immediately tried to make up for it. "No. Elliot hasn't contacted Ruby at all, otherwise she wouldn't have cto me." "Ruby told you that the baby was born?" Avery stared at him unblinkingly. "What else did she say?" Ben turned and saw Elliot walking over, holding Robert in one arm and holding Layla's hand with another. "Elliot is coming. Let's not talk about it, or we might upset him." Avery immediately straightened her back.
"Mom! | want to tell you a secret!" Layla hurried over to Avery and said while glancing at Ben.
Ben sensed that the secret had something to do with him and leaned over to listen in.

Layla leaned towards Avery's ear and whispered with an extremely small voice.
Avery flushed awkwardly. "Baby, your voice is too small. | didn't hear you." Layla pouted and raised her voice. "Aunt Tammy told Aunt Shea to throw her bouquet to Uncle Ben later." Avery heard Layla this time, TKY? so did Ben. He was angry at Lilith at the moment, so he didn't want the bouquet.
The ceremony ended within a blink of an eye and soon it was the session for the bride to toss her bouquet.
There weren't many guests, with most of them already married, so there weren't many people fighting for the bouquet.
Before throwing the bouquet, Shea turned to look directly at Ben to confirm where he was. Once she set her target, she tossed the bouquet at where Ben was standing and without hesitation, he immediately moved away.
