Chapter 2272


    Lilith felt relieved after hearing what Avery had to say.


    "Avery, you and Elliotplement each other. Elliot looks like a hard-to-deal-with person, yet you


    are nice and amodating," Lilith said, fawningly.


    "That''s because you don''t understand him. Take his servants for example. They have worked there


    for many years…"


    "That doesn''t necessarily mean that Elliot is nice to be with! This only proves that he treats


    everyone well and that is why they put up with him." Lilith had her own opinions about him. "I''m just


    praising you, and if I were a man, I would like a woman like you. You are able to care for your family


    and your career at the same time."


    "Lilith, you''re being a sweet talker. Are you trying to ask me for a favor?" Avery blushed from the


    praises. "We''re not outsiders. You don''t have to tter me."


    "Now, even if I have any troubles, Ben can help me solve them. I''m about to marry him. Of course, if


    there are any problems, I''ll turn to him," Lilith said cheekily. "And I realized that as long as I don''t


    argue with him, he isn''t that annoying."

    "Haha! Ben is quite nice. At least, every time I see him, he is always smiling. His temper is definitely


    much better than Elliot''s."


    "He is quite nice. He just likes to meddle in my affairs. I think this is a drawback of our age gap."


    "I understand you. Elliot and I were like this previously. We get along well now, but that is after a


    long time of staying together."


    "Now that you two are home every day, what do you do?" Lilith was quite curious. "The only thing


    there is for Elliot to do is to return to work after New Year''s, right?"


    Avery thought on it for a while before saying, "We find little things to do every day. For example, we


    were practicing calligraphy yesterday. The day before yesterday, we did some art and craft. Before


    that, we tidied up the children''s closet. The day before that, we hired a personal coach toe to


    our house…"


    "Oh, that does sound quite fulfilling. During the weekend, you two could spend time with the


    children."


    "Yes! Actually, we only have the mornings to ourselves. Once Robert returns from school in the


    afternoon we have to y with him," said Avery. "Are you and Ben nning to have children after


    you get married?"


    "Avery, do you think I should have them immediately?" Lilith was a little indecisive. Sometimes she


    wanted to have children, and other times, she did not want to have them. She did not want kids


    mainly because she knew her responsibilities and the pressure she would be under would increase


    once she had them.


    "My advice is that you should be mentally prepared. Only have children when you really want them,"


    Avery said.


    "I don''t know whether I want children or not."


    "Then, I don''t think you want them."


    "But when I see La and Robert, I like them very much. I feel like I do like children."


    "You might like children, but you don''t like the painful process of having children!"


    "Hahaha! Yes!" Lilith felt like Avery had hit the nail right on the head.


    "Tammy was like that before, too," Avery said. "You can talk to her. Actually, everyone''s pain


    tolerance is different. I didn''t find having children scary, and I didn''t feel much pain."


    "That''s because you''re a doctor." Lilith looked envious.


    "Lilith, doctors are afraid of pain, too. Don''t think about this for now. After your wedding, you can


    slowly consider whether you want to have children or not. Once you truly desire children, you will


    ovee the fear of pain."


    "I feel much better talking to you."


    "That''s because this isn''t a huge problem." Avery chuckled gently. She had not wanted children,


    initially, and when she was about to ask Lilith whether she had any other fears, her phone rang.


    Since she had been thinking about the things that were happening in Bridgedale, she took out her


    phone and had a look at the screen.


    It was a message from Sebastian.


    [My father is dead.]


    Avery''s expression froze when she read the message. She did not know if this was a result of the


    grudge between Natalie and Dean or whether other people had been involved.
