The two got out of the elevator one after the other.Lilith took out the room card from her bag, and Ben followed her step by step."Lilith, I think I like your character quite...""Oh, when I wasn't Hayden's aunt, you didn't like me no matter how you looked at me. You thought I was bad at everything. Now that I'm Hayden's aunt, you start to like my character."Ben was speechless.Lilith swiped the door open, pushed open the door, and walked in."If you're not afraid that I will continue to bully you, you can come in." She stood in the room and looked at him with a defiant expression.Ben hesitated for a few seconds, then strode towards her.With a 'bang', Lilith closed the door."Aren't you afraid of me?" Ben looked at the closed door and smiled."What should I be afraid of?" Lilith put her bag on the sofa, took out a bottle of water from the small refrigerator, and twisted it open, "If we really fight, you won't necessarily win."Ben felt insulted.Although he was a few y

He picked up the phone and saw the number from yesterday.He frowned slightly and answered the phone."Elliot, I've already arrived in Aryadelle. When are you free? Let's meet!" A woman's voice came from the phone."Where are you now?" Elliot glanced at the time.It was ten o'clock in the morning."I'm in a hotel. Do you want to have lunch together at noon?" The woman asked cautiously."There's no need for that. If you want to meet, let's meet at the test center!" Elliot said indifferently, "I'll send you the location."On the other side of the phone, the woman was silent for two seconds and replied, "Okay."She didn't say anything other than that.She seemed afraid of angering him.After hanging up, Elliot sent her the location of the test center, then went out of the study, ready to go out.Seeing that he was going out, Mrs. Cooper immediately asked, "Sir, where are you going? Didn't Avery remind you to rest at home?""I'll tell her." Elliot changed his shoes in front of t

There was a strong premonition in his heart that this woman might really be his biological mother.If she was fake, she would never have dared to come to the testing center to find out with him.The woman quickly entered the hall.After seeing Elliot, she immediately walked up to him: "Hello Elliot, I...my name is Susan. I don't know if Nathan has ever mentioned me to you."Elliot looked at her face and said coldly, "No."Nathan had played with too many women and had many illegitimate children.How could he possibly remember the names of those women?Raising Peter and Lilith had already been a grand gesture of kindness."Yes, he had too many women. It's fine if you don't remember me." Susan laughed at herself, "You dislike him, don't you? When he was sentenced to death, you didn't help him. For a man as powerful as you, you would have succeeded if you wanted to save him."Susan's question made Elliot frown."Aren't you living abroad?" he wondered.Susan's face turned red, an

He met Susan today, and the brief meeting between the two was different from what he had imagined.She was like a simple old woman, without much scheming and shrewdness.She came to him, perhaps not for money, but for affection.She didn't want him when she was young, maybe because Nathan forcibly took him away or because she couldn't support him.If she wasn't like Nathan, he wouldn't have such intense malice towards her.During lunch, he didn't talk to Avery about Susan.There was no need to let the children know about this before the results came out.After dinner, when they got home and the two children went to take a nap, the two of them started chatting."Do you have her photo? I'm curious, are you two really that alike?" Avery peeled an orange and divided it in half."I don't have a photo of her now." He showed her the photo of Susan when she was young. "Actually, it is more obvious when you look at the photo of her when she was young."Avery glanced at her and nodded

"By the way, you said before that you had blackouts. Has this happened recently?" He kept this matter in his mind, but he didn't ask because she didn't say anything similar later.Now she had decided to go to work, so he had to ensure she was okay."Not lately. I must have been too tired the last time!""Do you still need a re-examination?" Elliot suggested, "Why don't you go for a re-examination next Monday!"Avery said, "I don't like going to the hospital very much. Although I'm a doctor, I'm a little superstitious, just like ordinary people. I won't go to the hospital if there is no physical pain.""But some diseases aren't painful in the early stage.""Yes. But I have a physical examination every year." She raised her eyebrows, "We had a physical examination in the first half of this year, and we did it together.""Well." He was relieved, "Do you want to come and sleep with me?""Go to bed first! I need to organize the children's wardrobe." She glanced at the shopping bag o

Tammy was startled. "Ten years later... Then forget it! Donate it! Otherwise, it would be too wasteful to throw it away.""Well, I plan to organize it and donate it." Avery couldn't help laughing, "What was your mother-in-law's reaction when Jun went home with you and stayed at your place?""Do you think my mother-in-law can resist coming to see her precious son?" Tammy laughed, "I forgot to talk to you last night. My mother-in-law hasn't been discharged from the hospital yet. Yesterday she heard that Jun was depressed, and she immediately came to my house, intending to blame me. In front of my mother-in-law, Jun said he was depressed, and my mother-in-law didn't believe it, hahaha!""Hahaha! Auntie may know more about Jun and that Jun's personality is more optimistic...""Well, even if the world ends, Jun will not be depressed. I've been with him for so long and he has never had insomnia. Every time I quarreled with him, I was so angry that I couldn't sleep, but he rested on the b

Seeing her sleeping so soundly, he couldn't bear to call her to get up.Coming out of the bedroom, he saw several large cardboard boxes in the living room."Sir, these are the old clothes of Layla and Hayden. Avery said to donate these clothes. I forgot to ask her where to donate." Mrs. Cooper said, "I asked the bodyguard to remove the boxes; otherwise, it would take up too much space."Elliot: "Donate to the poor mountainous areas. I'll find the contact information."After that, he sat on the sofa and turned on his mobile phone.Mrs. Cooper went to prepare a plate of freshly-cut fruits for him.His company donated money to impoverished mountainous areas every year, but this had always been done by the people in the finance department.He called the finance department and asked for the contact information of the areas.The finance department staff immediately brought up the relevant information: "Boss, there are several charitable associations and schools in poverty-stricken ar

At noon, Avery came to the restaurant decided by Elliot and met with Susan.After she sat down beside Elliot, she couldn't help but look at Susan.Elliot said on the phone that the identification results showed that Susan was his mother."Are you Avery?" Susan had a kind and restrained smile, "You are so beautiful."Avery was also a little awkward, so she tried to find a topic: "Auntie, do you live in Bridgedale? When did you go there?"Susan lowered her eyes and thought for a moment: "I've been there for quite a few years. This matter is a bit complicated... I was smuggled over to work there as an illegal immigrant then, but I didn't expect to be lucky enough to meet my future husband there... I didn't use the identity of Susan there."Elliot's doubts were explained.He sent someone to check on Susan in Bridgedale but found no information."Then did your husband come with you?" Avery asked.Susan shook her head. "He passed away the year before. In fact, I saw Elliot on the ne
