Jed did not inform Avery of her pregnancy because he was afraid that she might want to keep the child.
There was no way that Avery could keep the child, and she should not think of keeping the child.
She had to wait nine months before she could give birth to the child, and that meant that she had to wait nine months till she could have her brain surgery. It was impossible to predict how bad the tumor would be in nine months.
She might not even live past these nine months.
Of course, if she was lucky, she might be able to give birth to the child and undergo brain surgery, but the chances of success would be extremely slim.
He was afraid that Avery might risk it.
In his opinion, there were only two possible outcomes if Avery insisted on having the child.

The first was that her child survived and she died. The second was that they both died.
So that she might live, he had decided that he was not going to tell her anything— no matter the outcome. For the past two days, he had been trying to think up a plan that would allow him to abort the child without her knowledge.
However, he had not been able to come up with a good solution. After all, Avery was not any ordinary woman.
She was a medical genius. It would not be easy to trick her.
Thankfully, Avery had just gotten pregnant. He still had time to think up a solution.
Meanwhile, Avery was in the other room, talking to Hayden.
Due to the time difference, Hayden had not immediately called Avery upon arrival.
Avery did not blame Hayden for being reckless, because everything Hayden had done, he had done for her.
If Christopher had not kidnapped and insulted her, Hayden would have had no reason or desire to kill him.
"You should return to Bridgedale. Don't miss out on your education because of your parents’ affairs," Avery said seriously. "I'll leave Ylore the first chance | get. Don't worry about me." "I'm taking Lilith to Bridgedale with me." Hayden told her his plans.
"Why?" Avery was confused. "Why are you taking her to Bridgedale?" "There is no one looking after her in Aryadelle," said Hayden. "Ben resents her, it was his friends who caused her miscarriage. | can't accept what Ben did. I'm going to make him regret it." A layer of sweat appeared on Avery's forehead. "Your Uncle Ben and Aunt Lilith grew up in very different environments, so their personalities might not match, but that does not mean Uncle Ben hates your aunt. Also, he feels terrible about Aunt Lilith's miscarriage. He just didn't tell you about it." After Lilith's miscarriage, Ben had sent Avery a few long messages, apologizing to her.
He had told her that he had tried contacting Lilith, but Lilith had deleted his number and was refusing to see him.
Ben had not looked for her because he did not want to trouble her and be a burden to her.
Avery was sure that Ben was not putting on a show, and she was sure about Ben wanting the child.

However, the world to a child as young as Hayden was black and white. For example, Elliot would always be an evil abomination to him.
"Lilith has already agreed to go with me to Bridgedale," said Hayden, telling her the outcome of his conversation with Lilith.
"Oh, what is she going to do in Bridgedale? Have you persuaded her to go to school?" Avery would support that decision of hers if Hayden had managed to persuade her into attending university.
"She doesn't like school. She wants to be a model," said Hayden. "I'm going to open a modeling agency, hire a professional manager, and have him train her. She will become a supermodel." Avery was stunned when she heard his plan.
"I'll pay for all of it," said Hayden.
Avery said, "Since you two have already discussed it, then, let's do it! If you don't have enough money, let me know." Although this plan was a little bold, it was a lot better than him sneaking into Ylore.
If it was something in her ability to solve, it would not be a big deal.
