Although moving out of Xavier's house meant she had to live in a smaller place and eat simple meals, at least she could avoid doing things she didn't want to do. She didn't have to care about what others thought and could be betselt.

To be herself, something that others could do with ease, was an almost impossible feat Bor Lily

Hayden looked disappointed. He knew that it Lily returned home, there was no way for Lily to woll conflicting with Bobby and Harel She could ignore the hurtful words, but they would definite intertere with her b

Haoden could protect her and step in to stop them, but is the end, the household would still be in chans. Lily wouldn't have the peaceful life she wanted.

"Lib, is there anything lean do for you?" Hayden asked.

Lab's eves glistened with tears. After some thought, she carefully ased Halen, "You should prioritize your career while the family still has some savings. He's most likely to

The "he" Liby meant was Bobby. She believed that Bobby wouldn't be stingy with his money for Hayden.

"I'll send you home!" Hayden didn't kisw what else to say. He pulled out his car keys and pulled Lily to the parking lot.

Lily got into Hayden's car, but haltway to her place, Hayden stopped agam. He insisted on taking her to a small restaurant they used to frequent.

"After all, it's your birthday today. Lean't let you go back hungry," Hayden said.

Hayden ordered several dishes, all of which she loved. He thought about the manner Bobby and Hazel ordered food, and he felt thoroughly sorry for Lily

In that small restaurant, it was just the two of them. This was the kind of dinner that Lily had hoped for on her birthday.

They chatted and laughed until 10pm, and onbe then did Hayden send her home.

Just as Lily got out of the car, she received a message from Hazel Hazelwrote, "What time is it already? Tell Hayden to come home immediately! He's just recoveted, and you still have the check to have him send you home. You might not care about him, but we do- Lily one read that part and didn't continue with the rest of the long message. She sent Hayden a message asking him to stay safe. Then she turned off her phone and put her hands in het pockets as she went upstairs.

She didn't think this birthday was lonely and sad at all

Xavier had been absent from her two birthdays after their marriage. She had carefully prepared dinner both times and waited for him to come home, hoping that he would bring gifts. However,

never received anything, and he didn't even know when her birthday was

Even when she mentioned it, he didn't even wish her a happy birthday. And on the second birthday, he still couldn't remember..

She was the only one waiting for something on every celebration, like their wedding anniversary, his birthday, er Valentine's Day.

Perhaps she had been disappointed too many times, so just having a quiet meal with Hayden on her birthday was enough to make her feel content. Two days later, the materials for Cherry's apartment arrived, Lily had already communicated with Cherry and brought over workers to install it. Lily arrived at 8:00 am.

"Ms. Joyner," Cherry said as she opened the door to let them in. "How long will the installation take?"

Lily thought for a moment and said, "Should be around four to five hours."

Cherry looked slightly troubled. "I have some matters today and need to go to the office. Can you install it yourselves without me around?"
