Although Jed had told her that, Ruby was still brimming with confidence.
If this succeeded, she could make Elliot stay. As long as Elliot never found out who the child's biological mother was, that child would be hers! After Jed completed the check-in process, he did not immediately return to the hotel for Avery. If Avery ever discovered his plan, she would be livid.
However, if he did not perform the procedure, the baby would die. When he had to choose between life and death, life was always the better option.
Hayden's face kept appearing in his mind." What if this baby is as smart and capable as Hayden in the future?" he thought.
Furthermore, there was a chance that the child would discover the truth in the future, and by then, he could make the decision of whether he wanted to live with Avery or not.

The more Jed thought about it, the more determined he was to go through with the plan.
They were stuck in Ylore, unable to leave. All he needed to do was transfer the child to Ruby and they could successfully leave this place.
At that moment, performing Avery's surgery and leaving Ylore were the most important things.
Returning to the hotel, he went to his room. Although he had his plan, he was still rather anxious.
After all, this was his first time doing such a thing.
He walked over to his desk and turned on his laptop. He opened Avery's surgery plan and went through it once again.
After making sure there were no mistakes, he furrowed his brows and opened his email. He did not have the courage to personally tell her things, so he decided that the would type her an email instead.
Of course, he would not immediately send her the email. He would schedule it to send at a later date.
He clicked the delivery date box and hesitated. He did not know when he should send the email. Should he schedule it for a year from now, three years, five years, or maybe he should set it to send when the child had reached the age of adulthood.
After a moment of hesitation, he set the email to send eighteen years from now.
By then, the child would be an adult. When Avery went to look for the child, the child could choose if he wanted to live with his stepmother or his biological mother.

He picked up the glass of water ?e(?R]S: took a sip before starting this letter.
[Dear Avery, [If you are reading this email, please try to recall our time in Ylore— eighteen years ago.

The doctor gave me an ultrasound scan. | was so shocked that | did not know what to say.
[You had a tumor in your head. A tumor that was pressing against the nerves of your brain. It had been growing.
You had to undergo surgery as soon as possible. It was the reason why you had asked me to come with you to Ylore. Despite your tumor, you had still gone and gotten yourself pregnant! [Of course, | knew that you could not keep the child. | had wanted to tell you about the child then, but your bodyguard had told me that you loved children. You are stubborn. If you had known about the baby, you would have risked your life carrying it to term. | didn't know what to do.
[Between you and the baby, of course, | chose you. Which was why | had decided to secretly abort your baby while you were under anesthesia.
[Right at that moment, however, an unexpected event occurred. I'm sure you have not forgotten that your son, Hayden, had gone to Ylore and killed Christopher Gould with the help of the butler, right? Which was why we were stuck in Ylore and could not leave |
