In the evening, the doorbell rang
Ben thought Lilith had come back, so he strode to open the door.
A man was standing outside the door!
Ben was stunned for a moment, and the man outside the door was also stunned.
The two of them had met before, so they were no strangers.
"What are you doing here?" the two asked in unison.
"Why can’t I be here? This is Hayden's house." Ben stood at the door, refusing to let Peter in.
Lilith had told him that her relationship with Peter was not very good and that
Peter would not come to her unless he needed money.
Since Peter is now at Lilith's door, did that mean he was running out of money?
Ben hated parasites like him! Lilith's current salary could only support her basic living, and there was no extra money for Peter.
Ben could not tolerate Peter asking Lilith for money.
"Hehe, I don't care whose house this is. I only know that my sister lives here!
Where's she?" Peter was a little angry with Ben for being so rude to him.
"Why are you looking for her?" Ben came out and closed the door.
"I'm looking for my sister; that's none of your business. Could it be that the two of you are together?" Peter glanced at Ben," Didn’t you two break up?" "Who told you that we broke up?" Ben's tone was cold. "Why are you looking for Lilith? You ran out of the money I gave you last time, didn't you? Did you come to her for money? Peter, look at yourself. How old are you to ask your sister for money?
Aren't you ashamed?"
Meanwhile, she found a branch from the yard. After picking up the branches, she immediately remembered that she had anti -wolf spray in her bag!
She removed the branches and pulled out the pepper spray from her bag.
Just as she stood at the door and entered the password, the door was pulled open from the inside.
"Lilith, why are you back so late?" Ben frowned, his tone sad.
The pepper spray in Lilith's hand fell to the ground with a clang.
"You... what's wrong with your face?" She wanted to ask why he was there, but the wound on his face was too noticeable.
Ben touched the wound on his face and turned his face away with a bit of shame." Nothing, I accidentally fell. "
"Oh?" Lilith walked up to him and continued to stare at his face. "Really? Fall once again and show me."
