Elliot had not hung up, which confirmed the fact that he cared deeply for Ivy. No one could ever sever the bond between families.
"Elliot, | didn't do that on purpose. | won't lose control like that again. | will take good care of Ivy and raise her well," Ruby promised.

He held onto his phone tightly as he was overwhelmed by his emotions.
He had seen what Ivy looked like in her photos, but it was not as shocking as seeing her in the video. Her every move caught his attention, and it tugged at his heart. Had his senses not stopped him earlier, he would have traveled to Ylore to hold Ivy the moment she had burst out crying.
Someone knocked on the door and he sobered.
Chad pushed the door open and placed a cup of coffee on his desk. "Are you okay, Mr. Foster?" There had been a meeting earlier, and Elliot had left after answering the call. Had it not been something urgent, Elliot would not have left without saying a word.
"Shea got pregnant.” Elliot picked up the cup and took a sip "She won't get rid of it and insists on giving birth." Chad's expression darkened. "Why would she do that? Wesley, too... How can they be so careless?" "Wesley lets her do anything she wants," said Elliot through gritted teeth.

It's not like you can actually allow her to give birth to the baby, right?" "She won't listen to me." Elliot's heart ached at the memory of how Shea had begged for him to treat her like a normal person.
"Avery will talk to her." "Then let Avery talk to her! Shea probably couldn't stand your temper," Chad said, before changing the topic. "Ben went to Ylore, right?" "Yeah." Elliot's expression darkened. "He takes pity on Ruby and the baby." "I can understand that he takes pity on the kid, but why Ruby?" Chad seemed confused. "Ben should know better, shouldn't he?" Elliot, too, had not expected this of Ben. " How would you explain why he is staying at Ruby's house, then? You think he is staying there because Ylore ran out of hotels?" Chad was shocked. "He's staying at Ruby's house?! Has he gone mad? What is he thinking? Does he think that Lilith is not interested in him because of Avery? Why else would he take Ruby's side?" "It's not as complicated as you think it is. He is trying to convince Ruby not to clooking for "Oh... You scared me. | thought that he was siding with Ruby against us!" Chad sighed a breath of relief.
"It's not that bad." "Yeah. It should be in the middle of the night in Ylore right now. | will call him once it's morning and get him to cback as soon as possible. I'm just worried that Ruby will do something to him," Chad said.
"Ruby needs his help, so he's not in any danger." Chad cleared his throat, "I'm worried that Ruby might try to seduce Ben."
