His Eagle Eyes on Me novel Chapter 1857

"I can pay you, but you are just going to say that I'm trying to insult you." Ben stumbled towards the couch. "Lilith, I've been really happy tonight, that's why I drank so much."

"What for?" Lilith set the glass down and went to sit down next to him. "Because my brother and Avery have resolved the misunderstanding between them?"

"Yeah! Isn't that something to be happy over?" He leaned back against the couch and tilted his head up, breathing heavily. " Once your brother settles down, we should settle down as well, right?" He said, before turning to look at Lilith.

"My career isn't steady yet!" Lilith felt troubled every time Ben tried to talk her into getting married whenever she returned to Aryadelle. She had developed feelings for him through the years she knew him, but it simply was not enough to give her the determination to marry him.

"Lilith, I've worked for most of my life, so let me tell you, there will never be an end to work. We can get married first, and you can continue to work after that. There's no conflict between the two!" Ben said. "Most people settle down and form a family, before moving on to build on their career."

"But your parents will definitely rush me into getting pregnant if we get married,” Lilith said in distress. "I will have to stop working if I get pregnant."

"That's not necessarily true!"

"What do you mean? Are you saying that your parents won't ask me to get pregnant? " Lilith blinked blankly. "If that's the case-" "My parents will definitely ask you to give birth to a child." Ben put a stop to her imagination. "I mean to say that you can continue working even if you get pregnant. I won't stop you and you are free to work until the day you give birth."

Lilith stared at him blankly.

Ben pulled out a magazine from the bottom of his coffee table. "Look. The model on the cover page is a world-famous supermodel, and this photoshoot was taken when she was pregnant. I read her interview, and she said that she continued working even after getting pregnant. Pregnant women aren't as fragile as we think they are."
