“Are you all right?”
Elizabeth chuckled and pushed Eva’s hand away. “Didn’t you just say that there are too many people now and that you’re going to recruit two more doctors to help? Why is our psychology center going to be over suddenly?”
“Andrew’s grandpa is here.
Eva’s expression was very serious. “I think he came to denounce you because you haven’t been home for a long time.
“You don’t even know, but the way he looked at me was as if he wanted to skin me alive. It was as if I was dragging you here to work
“It’s over. From the looks of it, he definitely won’t let you continue working. How unlucky. It wasn’t easy for us to cozy up to a powerful backer. How did it end so quickly?”
The more Eva spoke, the angrier she became. She snatched the coffee from Elizabeth and gulped it down.
Elizabeth was also a little nervous. “Then where’s Mr. Hayes now?”
“Downstairs. Eva held Elizabeth’s hand tightly. “Liz, the future of our psychology center is entrusted to you.
“Later on, no matter if Mr. Hayes hit, scolds, or shouts at you, you have to take it. You have to protect the psychology center
for us.
“Well…”
Elizabeth stared at the figure holding a walking stick on the ground by the pantry door. The expression on her face was worse than crying. Elizabeth tried her best to wink at Eva. “Mr. Hayes is very good.
“Nonsense! That gaze is scary” Eva sighed. “No wonder Andrew…
“He is pretty good” Elizabeth desperately winked at Eva. “Alright, I understand. Stop talking. I’ll go accompany Mr. Hayes
now.
With that, Elizabeth hurriedly shook off Eva’s hand and walked out. She pretended to be surprised and shouted, “Mr. Hayes, why are you here?
“What a coincidence. I was going to look for you downstairs. I’ll go with you to have a rest.”
“Imph
Benjamin looked at Elizabeth’s nervous expression and glanced into the pantry. “Let’s go.”
It was just a young lady who spoke without thinking. There was no need to argue with her.
The nurse quickly brought over freshly squeezed fruit juice.
Benjamin, who was sitting on the main seat, had a long face.
The more Elizabeth looked at Benjamin, the more nervous she became. Elizabeth picked up the juice with both hands and handed it to Benjamin. “Mr. Hayes, are you thirsty?”
“I’m not thirsty. I’m not hungry. I’m not sleepy. I don’t need to rest”
After Benjamin blocked Elizabeth’s words, he looked at her aggrieved expression with satisfaction and asked, “You’re so busy with work, so busy that you even can’t go home?”
It was over.
Elizabeth laughed in embarrassment. “No, it’s just that it’s a little messy since it just opened, so…”
Benjamin stared straight at Elizabeth, but his gaze was completely oppressive. “Is it because you’re busy, or is it because you two argued fiercely?
“Liz, I know that Andrew is not easy to get along with. You have indeed suffered with him, but I still hope that you can take a step back.
“I’ll help you find a few professional doctors to lighten your workload and give you enough time to care about the family.” Elizabeth never expected that Benjamin, who was usually pleasant to her, would suddenly make such a decision.
No.
Benjamin’s pleasant expression was only because Elizabeth was Andrew’s wife and had fulfilled her duty as a wife. When there was really a conflict, familiarity and estrangement were evident.

“But if I don’t agree?”
Elizabeth raised her head and looked at Benjamin stubbornly. “Mr. Hayes, I’m a career–minded person. I don’t want to be a
Canary.
“I promise you I’ll spend more time with Andrew, but I won’t give up my career.
Benjamin did not expect Elizabeth to reject him so directly.
Benjamin stared at Elizabeth in shock for a long time before sighing. I know I’ve made you suffer.
“Forget it. Just do as you say. I’m too old to care.”
Benjamin supported himself on the back of the sofa and stood up. He held onto his walking stick and slowly walked out.
Just for a moment, Benjamin looked much older, and his back was hunched.
“Mr. Hayes.” Elizabeth could not help but stand up and hold Benjamin’s arm. “I’ll send you out.”
“No need. Benjamin patted Elizabeth’s hand. “If you really care about me, come back with Andrew tonight and have a meal. with me.”
Elizabeth hesitated for a long time. In the end, she could not reject Benjamin’s request. “Alright.”
A faint smile bloomed on Benjamin’s face. “I’ll wait for you.”
Elizabeth drove Benjamin all the way to the car.
The car door closed.
Benjamin who looked very sad just now suddenly revealed a sly smile and asked Peter smugly, “How is it? My acting is not. bad, right?
“I forced her first and gave in then. The Liz agreed.
“Let’s go and find Andrew to act again!”
Peter looked at Benjamin, who was instantly happy, and smiled. “With your help, the couple will definitely reconcile soon.”
“Of course. Benjamin looked smug. “I will have a great–grandson soon.”
Andrew agreed very quickly.
Benjamin only mentioned that Elizabeth would have dinner tonight, and Andrew immediately agreed.
And so, as soon as Elizabeth came out of the psychology center, she saw Andrew leaning against the black Maybach and fiddling with his phone.
After Elizabeth didn’t see him for a week, Andrew seemed to lose some weight, and his figure looked even more slender.
Andrew was focused on his phone as if he had encountered a difficult problem. His brows were slightly furrowed and his lips were tightly pursed. It made people want to go forward, smooth his eyebrows, and help him smile.
Elizabeth stared at Andrew’s side profile in a daze and was hesitating whether to go over.
Andrew had already noticed Elizabeth and turned to look.
“Did you get off work?” Andrew put his phone in his pocket and opened the passenger door. “Let’s go. You promised Grandpa to have a dinner in the old residence.”
“I’ll sit in the back.” Elizabeth held her bag tightly and slowly moved over.
Andrew frowned again with a puzzled expression. “Why? We’re going to the old residence. If you don’t sit with me, Grandpa will be unhappy.”
“You… Elizabeth looked at Andrew carefully. Seeing that the roguish look in his eyes had disappeared, her tense body relaxed. “I forgot”
Elizabeth sat in the passenger seat and smiled at Andrew. “Let’s go and see Grandpa.
Elizabeth, who had completely relaxed, did not notice the mocking smile on Andrew’s face as he turned around.
At the old residence.
During the Dinner, the atmosphere was relatively easy. The chef’s culinary skills were not bad, and Benjamin was always smiling. There was no sign of the tense atmosphere that Elizabeth thought.
However, the atmosphere suddenly changed when they were eating fruits.
Benjamin looked at Andrew and Elizabeth, who sat far from each other, eating fruits, and ignoring each other, and asked
