"I knew that you wouldn't mind, but you'll have to talk to your parents!" said Lilith.
know that you won't mind, but you have to talk to your parents!" Lilith urged, "And as for how we are going to execute it, you'll have to help. Tammy and I only came up with the idea. You're not expecting us to do everything, right?"
Ben looked at how excited she was. He asked, "What about our wedding? Do you have any plans for it?"
Lilith took out her phone and looked at the calendar. After scrolling through her calendar, she casually pointed at a day on the calendar. "Why not do it on this day? Before New Year's. After the wedding, we can go on our honeymoon and still be back in time for New Year's. What do you think?"
Ben furrowed his brows. "We will only have a few days for the honeymoon? Lilith, you're being perfunctory. I remembered that Elliot and Avery's honeymoon was half a month."
"Why are you comparing us to them? I remembered their wedding clearly. It was unprecedented in its grandiosity. If you are comparing us to them, then why not have a wedding that is just as grand as theirs? You handed the organization of our wedding to your parents, right? Back then, Elliot was the one handling his wedding."
Lilith's legs were feeling a little sore, so she sat down in the office chair.
"I did want to plan our wedding, but you kept regretting it, and you couldn't set a date, right? My parents helped us because they saw us dragging our feet…"
"I'm not blaming your parents. My point is don't compare yourself to Elliot. A week for a honeymoon is not short. Why do you want half a month? Won't you get exhausted having fun for half a month?" Lilith had to run around a lot for work, so she only wanted to stay home during the holidays.
"Why would our honeymoon be exhausting? I haven't had a break in a long time. I want to take this time to rest."
"Yes, we can rest better at home. But then, we'll just stay home and rest," Lilith said.
Ben had a look of disbelief plastered on his face. "My parents are leaving after New Year's. If we were to spend our honeymoon at home, do you think they'll agree to it? I told my mom that I have already booked a luxurious package for our honeymoon abroad."
"If we're giving the Christmas wedding to Elliot, you have to give them the honeymoon, too!"
Ben was speechless.
