Chapter 1547


    Lilith received a call from Ben.


    She had finished showering and wasying in her bed, scrolling through videos. When Ben’s name popped up on the screen,


    she immediately jumped up.


    She answered the call and heard Ben stuttering, "Lilith... I... | am drunk... Can... Can you...e pick me up?"


    He even burped after asking the question.


    Lilith felt like she could already smell the alcohol even through the call.


    "It''s so cold out there. I''m not picking you up!" She rejected his request without hesitation but felt slightly guilty after that and


    added, "You can just find a hotel nearby to stay the night! Why bothering back here thiste at night?


    There''s no point."


    Ben’s heart sank at her affectionless reply.


    “Aren''t you drinking with my brother?Property ? 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.


    What about him? Is he drunk as well?" she asked when Ben did not reply.


    Ben sighed. "Your brother wants to take me back to his ce, but his leg has just recovered. | am over a hundred pounds; how


    can | lean on him?"


    "Then walk on your own!"


    m drunk!"


    “Oh...” Lilith thought about it, but she was still reluctant to travel miles just to pick him up. "Just tell my brother to get you a taxi. |


    won''t lock the door. I''ll just wait for you toe home, okay?"


    That was the best she could offer. She still had training the next day and waiting up for him was already a great sacrifice.


    Ben was slightly disheartened but immediately became excited at her words." Alright, I''ming back now!"


    Elliot sent Ben to the car and walked back to the mansion.


    It was ten at night and the wind was raging. The cold air sliced his skin like knives.


    The mansion was ten minutes away but he reached it within five minutes.


    The lights in the bedroom were still on and when he opened the door, he saw Avery sitting on the bed while reading the


    documents she brought back from Jed''s study room.


    He took off his jacket and sat down by the bed. "Why aren''t you asleep?"


    The faint scent of alcohol on his body


    suddenly made her feel paces

    Elliot froze because he forgot. He had been so overwhelmed after talking to Ben about the child in Ylore, that he had forgotten to


    bring her food.


    "| will go get you something now." He immediately got up and grabbed his jacket. "What do you want to eat?"


    "It’s okay. I''ll just drink some water."
