His Eagle Eyes on Me

Lilith said without hesitation, "Of course, there are regrets, but we have to accurately decide on what defines regret. If I had magic powers, I would surely want your uncle Ben to be twenty years old. It's best if he could always be twenty-something, to be always energetic and motivated. That way he could always care for me and Harry." Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ FindNʘᴠᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Layla looked at Lilith, not interrupting her.

"It used to bug me that your Uncle Ben was much older than me. Especially, when I was about to marry him. It always made me unhappy that he was older than I was. But then, everyone talked some sense into me, and I came to accept it. I might have regrets marrying him, but I never regretted that decision."

"Why is that?" Layla asked.

"We only live for a few decades. To be able to have one or two things to be proud of, to have a person or two in your heart, that would be a life lived without any regrets. Your Uncle Ben is not a perfect person, but he loves me enough. His tolerance and love for me are more than enough for me to not dwell on his shortcomings."

Layla understood.

"I know you would surely take Uncle Ben and my relationship and compare it to yours and Eric's. Layla, you should not do this," said Lilith. "Your Uncle Ben was the one who pursued me. If he didn't pursue me I would never have entered into a relationship with him. He is a little unashamed, or you could call it confident- unlike Eric. I don't know if he really likes you or not, or did he deliberately find another woman to piss you off. No matter what, I can't get past his behavior."

"Aunt Lilith, I think he is lying to me. Before he announced his relationship at the concert, we met up. At that time, he said that he was not in a relationship, and he has been busy rehearsing. Where did he find the time to be in a relationship? Yet, he suddenly announced his relationship during his concert. It was clearly aimed at me." Layla had been upset because of this. "I feel as if he treats me like a fool." "Layla, what if he has really gotten together with Nadia? People their age get married immediately as long as they are compatible with their chosen partners. They don't have many requirements, unlike when they were in their youth." Lilith wanted Layla to come to her senses.
