In Bridgedale, she returned to her residence after Lilith finished her day's work.
She took off her high heels, put on slippers, and tied up her long hair as she walked toward the bathroom.
She attended a car event today and had put on heavy makeup on her face.
She didn't know that she was allergic to makeup, and her face felt slightly itchy.
After removing her makeup, she noticed her face was red.
She put on a mask and walked to the sofa to sit down.
She picked up the phone, turned it on, and saw the message from Ben: [Call me after you get off work, I have something to ask you.]
She lazily dialed his number, and he answered in seconds.
"You got off work so early today?" Ben's voice came.
"I'm a human! I got up at six o'clock this morning. If I don't get off work earlier, I'll be exhausted" Lilith cut to the chase, "What do you want to ask me?"
"Why didn't you tell me about Avery's blindness? If it wasn't for Chad going to Bridgedale this time, I probably would never have known about it."
Lilith jumped and stood up from the sofa. The mask on her face fell to the ground.
"Avery is blind?!”
Ben was on the phone and took a deep breath: "Haven't you met Avery after she went to Bridgedale?" "No! I told you I'm swamped; why do you think I'm lying to you?" Lilith picked up the mask from the ground, threw it into the trash can, and quickly walked towards the bathroom, "How could Avery be blind? I wanted to find her before this, but Hayden asked me to work hard, so I didn't go."
"It's very late at night for you. If you are free tomorrow, you can go and see for yourself." Ben said.
Lilith said, "I'll call Mike now and ask."
