Avery rubbed her eyebrows before opening her eyes and looked out the window.
As the car drove past and the scenery outside began to recede, she could see the tall buildings, flower beds, and the continuous flow of traffic.
She wondered if it was because she did not have good rest recently.
The last time it happened to her was before her surgery in Ylore.
After she was discharged from the hospital, she underwent another checkup and the results confirmed that there were no issues.
She might have been a little too exhausted recently.
Since she and Elliot had already secured the marriage certificate, the burden in her heart had been released and she would probably be able to readjust her mental state.
She figured that her body would return to normal after a few days of rest.
The car drove speedily back to the Starry River Villa. Robert was playing with toys in the living room when she arrived, while Elliot was taking an afternoon nap.
Mrs. Cooper urged her to go back to her room and rest, but she was not feeling sleepy.
"Ben came here today and brought a gift. He said that Lilith spent a month's worth of her salary to buy it for you," Mrs. Cooper said. "She's quite thoughtful."
Avery was very surprised. "Lilith had a hard time earning some money. How could I bring myself to accept a gift that she spent so much money on?"
"Just give her one in return. She's willing to buy you a gift out of sincerity, and she'll only be sad if you refuse," Mrs. Cooper said with a smile.
"You're right."
"She bought a gift only for you. There's none for Master Elliot."
"They haven't met each other yet, and Elliot never said he'd acknowledge her as his sister. Lilith's not the kind of person who likes to flatter people."
"I can see that. She is kind only to those who treat her well. "
