Time flew by and Shea's wedding approached.
Lilith had returned to Aryadelle after completing the three-month long competition and had won second place in the final contest. Though she wasn’t satisfied with the outcome, she managed to accept the reality despite feeling depressed.
When she saw Shea in her white wedding dress, Lilith's eyes were filled with envy." Shea, you look so pretty today. Wesley is such a lucky man to land such a beautiful bride."
"Shea, you can get married, too," Tammy teased, "your contest is over and you can finally relax now. You and Ben..." "Stop it. We broke ties," Lilith said with resignation, "didn't Avery tell you? He stuck back to Bridgedale to see me last time and saw me with my manager's son. He was so angry at the time that he was turning green and he just turned and left."
"Avery didn't tell me! When did that happen? What's going on between you and your manager's son?"
"It's a while back, before the final contest." Lilith frowned. "My manager's son is two years older than me and is currently a postgraduate. He is knowledgeable and I enjoy listening to him. He happens to like me as well... so we are quite close."
Tammy immediately understood what had caused Ben to turn green from rage; she would have reacted the same way if she was him.
"If you and Mr. Postgraduate there like each other, then you are not missing out on anything with Ben. Ben is still... a bit too old for you," Tammy teased.
Lilith sighed. "I feel like I am being seen as a player or something. I am not dating that postgraduate student... We just kind of like each other, but it’s not like we are getting married. He still hasn't graduated yet!"
"Lilith, you are still young. Marriage is still too early for you! Let things run its course!"
