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 accused
because you got first place 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 Villa 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 black Rolls-Roice parked just behind Avery and Hayden.

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



The alarm 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
explained 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 explanation 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 accept Elliot’s presence in his school life EPJxxC;2 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 slashed 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 tumed 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 classes 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 violated,” Mike provided his take. “He might not even participate in the competition.”

That was something that Avery was concerned about too.

“He really’wanted to join the competition. 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 be coming around any time soon.
