Chapter 1312
"How long do you think humans can go without eating?" Lily asked seriously.
Without hesitation, Alexander said, "There's research data on this. People can go about seven days
without eating anything."
Lily nodded and continued, "A human body consumes energy even if they don't do anything. If humans
were to consume their energy every day without eating anything to compensate for that, how could
their bodies take it in the long run?"
Alexander seemed to understand it, but perhaps not entirely.
"Think of humans as robots. If you want the robots to lose weight or do anything, you'll need to give it
something to move." Then
Lily paused for a moment before continuing, "Anyhow, she's losing weight the wrong way now, and it'!

Lily wanted to tell Alexander that Anastasia's mental health was already on the verge of crumbling.
Anastasia's resistance toward food had reached a limit, and she would be at either end of the spectrum
if this continued. She would become anorexic or bulimic, and either one would destroy her life.
"You want to help her?" After hearing all that from her, Alexander still could not understand what she
meant entirely, but he had a rough idea of what she was trying to say.
"I'm not a saint, and I can't save everyone," Lily lowered her head and took a bite of spaghetti. Two
seconds later, she raised her head.
"Still, I do want to help my friends."
Concerning the dress incident the other day, Anastasia did not make things difficult for Lily, even after
the salesperson instigated her. From that, Lily could tell that Anastasia was not brainless and arrogant.
Moreover, she had gifted Lily something so costly, so Lily considered it as a repaid debt.
"Do you need my help?" Alexander habitually asked even though he knew his wife would say no every
time.
However, he heard something he had not expected from Lily, "Yes!"
He raised his brow, slightly surprised, but he mostly felt happiness. Lily was too independent and
refused his help whenever she had problems. She could handle those problems independently, as if
nothing could stop her from doing what she wanted.
Although Alexander admired her for that, it made him feel slightly useless. Since Lily could deal with all
her problems, he felt that, as her husband, he was a "redundant" presence.
"Oh?" He became interested. "How do you want me to help?" Lily smirked. "I'll need to use your name
to invite Anastasia to our place from time to time."
Alexander was still waiting for her to continue in high spirits, but she had stopped talking. It seemed
she had said everything she needed to say.

"Yeah." Lily nodded but wondered what else she would need from him.
Alexander was speechless. He thought he could finally be of use to her, but she just needed to use his
name to do something. 'That's all?! For real?'
Lily noticed the disappointment on his face and quickly explained,
"I didn't need it at first, but I think Secretary Rollins is relatively rigid and hard to communicate with.
Plus, he was already rather unhappy because I gave Anastasia a piece of cake today, so I bet he
already has a bad impression of me.
"That's why I wanted to borrow your name to say... to say that Galen likes to play with her and that
you'd like to invite her over frequently to play with him."
Initially, Lily could not think of an excuse, but when she caught sight of their son, who had his face full
of sauce by the side, an idea formed in her head. 'Isn't he the best excuse?'
