Chapter 1066


    "HAYDEN! BE CAREFUL!"


    Avery ran as fast as she could toward him.


    Hayden stopped as soon as he saw the speeding truck, and the sound of screeching tires was heard


    as the truck braked abruptly at a distance of less than half a meter away from Hayden.


    Avery was so frightened that she burst into tears and ran over to hug him.


    After hugging him, she wasted not a single second and carried him from the middle of the road to the


    sidewalk.


    "Let''s go home, okay?" Avery held his cold little hand tightly. "I know you''ve been unfairly used


    because you got first ce with your own efforts without having anything to do with your father." "I don''t


    want a father like him!" Hayden frowned and shook Avery''s hand away. " I''m not going to go back


    home!"


    In Hayden''s eyes, Starry River Vi was the home of his mother and Elliot. He could not ask his mother


    to break up with Elliot, so he did not want to go back to that house again!


    "Where do you want to go if you''re not going home? Tell me. I''ll go with you!" Avery''s eyes were wet


    and she held his hand tightly.


    She knew that he would run away again if she let go of his hand.


    Not long after, a ck Rolls-Roice parked just behind Avery and Hayden.


    Elliot got out of the car and walked over to them.


    The rm bells in Avery''s mind began to ring when she saw Elliot’s arrival.


    Hayden loathed him immensely, and it was sure to be an unpleasant endeavor if both father and son


    encountered each other right then.


    "I did invest money in your school because I wanted it to be in line with international standards,” Elliot


    exined to Hayden. "I also told your teachers to take care of you, but I never asked them to give you


    extra marks."


    Unfortunately, Elliot''s exnation merely added fuel to the fire.


    "You think you''re so great just because you''re filthy rich!" Hayden tensed up and looked at him angrily.


    "I don’t need you to worry about me! You''re not my father! I''m not your son either!" Hayden could not


    ept Elliot''s presence in his school life ?b#>XJV? found it humiliating that the man invested money in


    the school and told the teacher to take care of him!


    Hayden did not want to live under Elliot''s halo.


    He wanted to rely on his strength and ability to surpass his father!


    "Hayden, your father did that because he has his ways of wanting to treat you better. " Avery felt very


    heartbroken when she saw how intense her son''s emotions were.


    "I don’t want it! If you think he''s so good, you can live with him!" Hayden broke free from Avery and


    walked away.


    Elliot felt as if his heart had been shed with a knife when he saw Avery crying. He pulled Hayden


    back by force and put the boy down in front of Avery.


    "Hayden! You can hate me all you want, but you can’t treat your mother like that!" Elliot reprimanded


    sharply. "Go home with your mother. I''ll go back to my home and I won''t show myself to you until you


    calm down!"


    Elliot strode back to the car when he finished speaking.


    Avery watched his car disappear into the distance before reaching out to wipe the tears from Hayden''s


    face. "Let’s go home, Hayden!"


    After they returned home, Mike immediately rushed over after hearing what happened.


    Hayden locked himself in his room and refused to see anyone.


    Mike frowned and put his hands on his hips. "Hayden is a very proud boy. Does Elliot have nothing


    better to do? Why did he insist on interfering with Hayden’s studies?"


    Avery''s eyes turned red and she said hoarsely, "You might not understand this, but most of the parents


    in Aryadelle are like that. They would help to pave their children’s future if it was within their ability. I


    used to be so envious of other parents when they sent their children to the best schools and


    encouraged them to join sses of the hobbies that they were interested in."


    "Makes sense. Hayden wouldn’t be so angry if you did that, but he hates Elliot. When Elliot did that, he


    felt vited," Mike provided his take. "He might not even participate in thepetition.”


    That was something that Avery was concerned about too.


    "He really wanted to join thepetition. It would be such a shame if he just gave it up.”


    "I''ll persuade him. Don''t worry about it for now," Mike said. "Where''s Elliot though? How is he?"


    Avery lowered her eyes and felt a sting in her heart. "He won''t being around any time soon."Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.
