Christopher stopped just as he was about to take a swig of water. He suddenly grew suspicious.
"Darling, why did you bring me water?” His normal self would never have suspected his daughter of anything and would have taken anything she had given him.
However, he could not forget the death countdown on his phone! He had to keep vigilant till three in the morning! He needed to know who was trying to take his life! If he was not dead by three that morning, it just meant that the hacker was a lying idiot! Also, if he was not dead by three, it proved that the hacker was Elliot's son— Hayden.
Hayden was barely ten years old. "It is amazing that he can hack into my phone at such a young age, but that is all he is capable of! Kill me?! He does not have the skills for that!" thought Christopher smugly.
Christopher's daughter blinked her huge eyes. "My teacher told me to serve Mommy and Daddy water. | have to take a video and show it to her." Only then did Christopher notice his wife standing nearby. She had her phone in her hands and was clearly recording a video.
"Oh, | see!" Christopher chuckled.

His daughter had just started kindergarten. Every week, her teacher would assign her different kinds of homework.
When Christopher was not at home, it was his wife who helped their daughter finish her homework.
Christopher thought about how he had suspected his wife and daughter of trying to murder him and blushed in shame.
He gulped the water down in one go before passing the empty cup back to his daughter.
"Darling, what do you say to me spending more time with you at home?" His daughter accepted the cup, smiled, and nodded.
Christopher's wife was still recording the scene. She walked over to their daughter and said, "Baby, give your father a kiss." The girl stood there stunned, but very quickly, she walked over to Christopher and pecked his cheek.
"Chris, when are you going to take a bath? Should I run a bath for you?" his wife asked.
"I'm not going to take a bath yet. Why don't you take our daughter up give her a shower!" Christopher said. "After the shower, you can both go to bed. Don't wait up for me." His wife's expression turned serious." Chris, | know what you are waiting for. Once | put our daughter to bed, I'll wait with you." "No need! I'm waiting till three in the morning at the latest." Christopher was fearless. "There are bodyguards outside. Even a fly would not be able to get past them! | will be fine!" "The hacker is just playing a prank on you! You shouldn't pay it any attention." "Hmm! Give our daughter a shower! I'll watch TV for a while." Christopher picked up the remote control and turned on the TV.
Like Christopher, who was waiting until three in the morning, Hayden too was waiting. Hayden was not playing any of his computer games. Instead, he lay in bed, waiting. He was waiting for the time when he and his mother could finally return to Aryadelle.
He did not like where he was at all. Every passing second irritated him.
Ruby was completely different from the other women who had been with Elliot in the past, such as Chelsea or Zoe.
She was the youngest of them all. Unlike Chelsea and Zoe, she was childish. They, on the other hand, looked like amazing women.

However, a plain, harmless woman would always manage to hook men.
If Hayden were to return to Aryadelle with Avery while Elliot stayed with Ruby in Ylore, Avery would surely be sad.
However, it was better to rip the bandaid off quickly. If Elliot does fall in love with Ruby, then Avery was better off not having a dirtbag like that! Time passed by quickly. Soon, it was three in the morning.
Hayden sat up in bed and switched on the lamp by his nightstand.
Elliot was sitting on the sofa in the living room upstairs. He had no intention of sleeping.
According to Hayden, Christopher was going to die that day. He was waiting for news of Christopher's death.
He looked at the time on his phone. It was already a quarter past three in the morning.
