Afraid that Elliot might reject her, Ruby immediately said, "Elliot, I beg you not to be so cruel. I will never come again. Once the child is born, I have to care for the child
Elliot stood in the courtyard outside the door. He turned slightly and looked toward the door of the mansion. Avery was looking at him, but she did not walk over.
Shea was tugging at her arm, saying something to her.
When Avery realized that Elliot was looking at her, she immediately looked at Shea's face.
"I won't see you, Ruby. Stop contacting me! You will only make me hate you even more! " Elliot's sensibility overcame his impulsiveness. He rejected Ruby coldly.
Ruby instantly cried. She choked up and said, "I didn't come here deliberately. I just can't control myself. The baby has been kicking me. Every time she kicks me, I want to tell you that she is already a healthy, living being. She will be as smart and adorable as Layla in the future. Elliot, I don't ask you to give her the love of a proper father, just see her from time to time. Even if you can't see her openly, at least do it secretly!"
Ruby's tears made him grit his teeth hard.
He clenched his fist tightly. Layla's face appeared on his mind.
"Elliot, I am staying at the Regency Hotel near your place. I'm leaving tomorrow morning." Ruby had a sliver of hope when she heard no response from him. "Will you come to see our child? Even if it's just a glance. I know when I'm giving birth to the child, you can't go to Ylore to see me. I won't have the energy to bring the child over to see you too, so can you come and see us tonight? I brought a lot of the child's photos for you. I took it this month."
The Regency Hotel was not far from Elliot's mansion. It was less than a ten-minute car ride. He would be able to travel there and back again in the span of half an hour.
The child turned him soft-hearted.
When Ruby goes into labor, he would not be able to see her and the child. He would not be able to see them in the future either.
Once the child is born, Ruby would focus her attention on the child =e-=YIS> would most likely never look for him ever again.
At that thought, Elliot decided to see Ruby for the last time.
He hung up and entered the mansion. Avery was watching the New Year's Concert with Shea and Adrian. Hayden and Layla were there too. Robert had fallen asleep in Mrs. Cooper's arms.
