Chapter 1064

That evening at Central University, Avery came to pick up Hayden from school.

He had an important test earlier in the morning, and she hoped that he would not make that big a fuss
over his result and accept it calmly regardless of whether he got first place.

“How did you do in the test, Hayden?” Daniel and Hayden came out of the classroom together.

Aside from being best buddies, they were also the top scorers in the class.

Hayden was very satisfied with his efforts but answered in a rather modest manner, “Let’s wait and see
the score tomorrow!”

“Okay! I think I did well.” Daniel cocked an eyebrow. “I know you want to go too, so if you ask nicely, I
might consider giving my spot to you. But my dad might not agree though.”

“I’ll rely on my abilities to get the spot. I don’t need you to give it to me.”

“But you’re not as good as I am! We might be good friends, but that’s the harsh truth. I got first when I
took the final exam, remember?”

Hayden corrected him, “I just scored a little lower than you in the art and culture subjects. I’m just as
good as you in the core subjects, you know.”

“Okay! Let’s stop arguing. When the scores come out tomorrow, you’ll know that I’m still better than you,”
Daniel said. He then spotted Avery at the school gate and yelled, “Your mom is here to pick you up,
Hayden. She’s becoming more and more beautiful!”

Hayden glanced at the school gate.



Avery waved to him as soon as she saw him.

When Hayden saw the smile on his mother’s face, the unhappiness he felt in his heart faded

considerably

He knew that he had no control over the kind of man his mother chose, which left him little

choice but to accept Elliot.

At the end of the day, all he wanted was to live with his mother.

“Auntie!” Daniel walked up to Avery right away and greeted her warmly.,”We had a test for the qualifying
round of the competition today!”

“I’ve heard. How did you do?”

“I think I’d definitely get the spot. I’ve already told Hayden earlier. Please comfort him when you’re back
home. I don’t want to make Hayden sad, but I can’t make my dad sad either. He really wants me to
participate in the Hacker Cup competition. Winning an international award will help me a lot in the future,”
Daniel said solemnly.

Avery wanted to congratulate Daniel but she could not.

If what Daniel said was true, then Hayden would be utterly crushed.

That competition was very important for Hayden. “Let’s go home, Mommy!” Hayden took Avery’s and led
her away.

After getting in the car, Avery uncapped a bottle of water and handed it to Hayden

“Hayden, it’ll be fine even if you don’t get the spot. You’ll always be the best in my eyes.”



Hayden took the water bottle and drank a sip.

“The results won’t be released until tomorrow.”

“Oh, but Daniel seems to be very confident.” Avery frowned. “Don’t feel too down if he does get the spot,
okay? It’s just one competition. There will be other competitions in the future.”

“Trust me, Mommy” Hayden’s expression, and his tone more so, was calm.

Her nervousness disappeared when she saw his confidence.

“Of course! I’ll be waiting for your good news tomorrow.” Avery then added, “That goes for second place
too!”

“I’ll get first place.” Hayden frowned.

“We’ll go out and celebrate if you do!” Avery started the car and dialed Elliot’s number.

‘The number you have dialed is busy. Please try again later.’

Elliot was actually on his way home when he received a call from his bodyguard.

“You were right, Mr. Foster. Nathan was beaten up. The person who beat him said that you sent him to
beat him.”

Elliot frowned. “Could you find out who was using my name?”

“It won’t be easy. Nathan already forgot what that person looked like,” the bodyguard said. “He said that
Henry came to him today, and he told me to warn you that Henry was going to cause trouble.”
