Chapter 1324


    Rubyy in bed and waited from nine to ten, then from ten to twelve o''clock.


    She had slept through most of the day, so despite it being midnight, the did not feel sleepy.


    She had picked up her phone a few times, wanting to call Elliot, but refrained from doing so when she


    remembered what he said before leaving.


    Her father, her brother, and Elliot were all men; and all men were yers by nature. Men could not


    possibly stay in love with one particr woman for their entire life.


    Since she was old enough to remember, she had seen her father dating countless women. Even now,


    he was still dating women. He would spoil his partner rotten every single time, but when he eventually


    fell out of love, he became cold immediately.


    Her brother was worse. He had gotten married at a young age, but that did not stop him from keeping


    countless mistresses throughout the years. He was worse than his father.


    Ruby’s sister-inw had fought Christopher a few times in the beginning, but she had soon realized


    that nothing would change. So, she ignored all of his infidelity and focused all of her love and care on


    the children, and she devoted all her attention to her status as Mrs. Gould.


    Rubyforted herself gloomily, "At least Elliot doesn''t date a different woman every other day."


    So long as she remained his wife and he treated her well on the outside, she could tolerate anything.


    At two in the morning, a white light shone into the room from the yard. It was the headlights of a car.


    She immediately put her phone down and pretended to be asleep.


    Shortly after, she began to hear footsteps approaching and the door of the bedroom slowly swinging


    open.


    There was a nightlight in the bedroom and Elliot could see Ruby''s face under the yellow light.


    He had checked all of the major hotels in the city tonight, but he did not manage to find Hayden.


    Hayden had either created another alias or had gone to stay in a small hostel.


    He was worried about Hayden, but he also knew that worrying would not help.


    Hayden mentioned that he wanted to teach Christopher a lesson, so if he wanted to find Hayden, all he


    needed to do was to keep an eye on Christopher.


    Elliot went to take his pajamas out of the closet >b%;UNV; was about to head to the bathroom for a


    shower when Ruby opened her eyes. She pretended to wake up. "You are back, Elliot? What time is it


    now?" She asked gently.


    He raised his arm to nce at his watch. " Two in the morning. Go back to sleep!"


    "I''m awake now. Go shower!"


    "Yeah."


    Elliot did not spare her another look and headed straight into the bathroom.


    Ruby was instantly overwhelmed by sorrow as she stared at the shut door.


    Elliot had been at his most gentle on the day that they had signed their marriage certificate, but ever


    since Avery’s appearance, he had be more and more distant.

    "Why is Avery''s ssmate here? What exactly is the nature of his rtionship with Avery?" she


    thought.


    "Sleep!” he said.


    Just as Ruby thought that he was going to lie down next to her, Elliot picked up his pillow.
