Chapter 857 “I just called Mike, Sir. He said he wasn’t the one who hacked into Charlie Tierney’s account.” Chad
adjusted his glasses, then continued, “He said it was Hayden.” Elliot covered the microphone on his phone, then
hung up. It was Hayden It was not surprising! Hayden knew the entire time that Layla was the one who took the
box, so he must have already known about the box’s contents. He suddenly recalled that the reason why he almost
strangled Hayden to death was that Hayden had said that he was sick. He did not think about why Hayden would
say such a thing at the time. Now that he thought about it, he was a complete idiot! Hayden had known about
Elliot’s secret this entire time. Even if Elliot never laid a finger on Hayden back then, Hayden would still never
acknowledge Elliot as his father! Hayden looked down on him! Otherwise, he would not have hacked into Charlie’s

that Hayden was behind this, but he did not know why he would say something like that. “It’s not a prank,” Elliot
said with certainty. “He did it on purpose.”
“Even so, you shouldn’t hold it against him. He’s just a child, after all. Besides, he probably did it to stand up for his
mother.” Chad was guessing from Hayden’s point of view.
Elliot shut his laptop, then walked around from behind his desk.
When he arrived next to Chad, he said in a low voice, “Go home!”
Hayden did what he did to tell Elliot that he knew about everything.
He never took Elliot seriously before, and that was still theed case. He could easily make Elliot’s fear public and not
be afraid of Elliot taking revenge on him.
Of course Elliot would not be upset withie Hayden. It was just as Chad said, Hayden did this to stand up for his
mother. The thought of Avery’s wronged expression made Elliot feel like punching94 himself. Once Elliot left, Chad
was in a daze.
Elliot’s reaction seemed overly18 calm.
It was fine if he was not mad at Hayden for saying he had a psychological disorder, but how could he be so calm
with the news going viral online?
Over in Bridgedale, Mike glanced over at Hayden a few times overd3 breakfast. Hayden ignored him, finished his
breakfast, then returned to his room. Moments later, Avery’s phonecb rang. Mrs. Cooper handed Avery her phone
and said, “It’s Tammy.” Avery immediately answered the call. “I’ve got huge news, Avery! Elliot has a psychological
disorder!” Tammy did not expect to run into such explosive news when she had just returned to Aryadelle. “I’m not
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthe one saying this! It was Charlie Tierney! He said his account was hacked and that it’s not true, though.”
The tone and content of Tammy’s words took Avery’s emotions on a roller coaster ride. She was mortified.
“Nobody believes Charlie Tierney’s explanation. Everyone thinks Elliot really is sick Otherwise, he wouldn’t marry
Chelsea Tierney. I read some theories online and I think they’re right!” It had been a while since Tammy felt such
excitement. Maybe seeing others suffering more than she was made her look less pitiful. “Did you hear what I just
said, Avery?” When Tammy noticed Avery’s silence, her own emotions began to gradually calm down. “Don’t tell me
you already knew about this? I won’t laugh at him if he really is sick. I’m just shocked!”
“I don’t know about his business,” Avery said.
“Oh, you scared me!” Tammy felt relieved. “He hasn’t responded since the news broke. Do you think he could
actually be sick?”
