Chapter 1642


    Elliot was impressed by his imagination." What''s in that brain of yours? Does Ben seem that desperate to you?"


    Chad scratched his head. "I''ve never met Ruby before, but my instinct tells me that she''s a formidable enemy. She managed to


    find a way to create a child in secret after getting married to you. After that, she killed her own father. That''s not what ordinary


    people do, so she''s definitely someone who will do anything to get what she wants ''


    “Are you concerned that she will bribe Ben into going against me?"


    “Not to go against you but to seduce you," Chad said. "She has never been discreet about wanting you for herself."


    Elliot took a sip of coffee. "Ben won''t betray me."


    "True. I''m worrying over nothing. | just keep getting worried, probably because Ruby has your child right now. If only we can get


    custody of that child. | know it''s difficult for you, though. You definitely don''t want that kid."


    Before today, Elliot had thought and believed whole-heartedly that he would not want the child, but after receiving the video call


    from Ruby and seeing the child, his determination began to waver.ConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org .


    "If Ruby fails to take care of the child, | might just take her away," he confessed.


    Chad readjusted his spectacles. He thought he had heard Elliot wrong. "Mr. Foster, if you take the child away from Ruby, who''s


    going to raise her?" "I can hand her over to a nanny," Elliot said. "| certainly can''t take care of her." "To be fair, Mr. Foster, Avery


    has been really understanding this time. | can''t find fault with her," said Chad. "Don’t break her heart. If you really want to take


    that child, | rmend that you keep her without Avery''s knowledge."


    Elliot did not know how to respond. What he said was a mere possibility, and he would not act unless Ruby treated Ivy poorly.


    Ruby had promised him in the call to raise Ivy properly, so he assumed that it was a possibility that was unlikely to be realized.


    After exiting Elliot''s office, Chad went to the canteen for a break.


    "Why has Shea’s pregnancy changed Elliot''s attitude toward that child in Ylore all of a sudden?" he thought. "Elliot didn’t feel that


    way for Ruby =b.:VNS< the kid before this."


    Chad took a big sip of cold water to suppress his curiosity and walked out of the canteen.


    In the evening, he could not help but bring up the topic with Mike.


    "| feel like Shea''s pregnancy has affected Mr. Foster, otherwise he wouldn''t even think of taking the child away from Ruby," Chad


    said.


    "Haha, what a jerk!" Mike picked up


    the wine bottle to fill his own ss. "|

    teach wittr Kid because she said


    that things between her and that jerk


    have been great. She said something

    "On the surface, he lied to Avery but


    in private, he told you that he wants

    thinks, but does he have the guts to
