"Ruby says that she has something to say to you.” Avery passed her phone to Elliot.
She only passed the phone to Elliot because she wanted Ruby to completely give up.
Elliot accepted the phone and put it on the loudspeaker. "What do you want to say?"
"Elliot, don't go! I beg you, don't go! Wait for the child to be a little bigger, then I'll go do a paternity test! The child in me is yours!" Ruby cried out loud, "How could you just abandon your own child? How could you be so cruel?"
Avery, as a mother, could not help but feel a little for Ruby after hearing what she said.
However, at the thought of how Ruby created the child only to take Elliot away, she could no longer pity Ruby or the child in her.
"Yes, I can't abandon my children, which is why I have to return to Aryadelle and do my part as a father." He went in with Ruby's logic and said calmly, "If you're disappointed in me, you can go have an abortion."
On the other end of the line, Ruby was sobbing hard. She was in so much despair that she was at a loss for words.
A few seconds later, Elliot hung up the call. He returned the phone to Avery.
"Elliot, it is over." She shut her phone off.
"Hmm." Elliot knew that she meant that everything in Ylore had ended. When he returned to Aryadelle, he would no longer have any contact with Ruby. Everything that happened in Ylore was like a dream.
Ruby lost it. Her intricate schemes not only did not manage to make the man she loved stay with her, but it also even cost Ruby her father's life.
She has regretted it! However, regrets were pointless.
"Miss Ruby, did he really ask you to abort the child?" The nanny's eyes reddened. She was feeling indignant on Ruby's behalf.
Ruby sobbed uncontrollably. "He doesn't want me anymore. He also doesn't want the child..."
When Elliot was pushed out of the plane in his wheelchair, he was transferred to the ambulance.
"Did you contact the ambalance?" Elliot did not know that he would be sent to the hospital by ambulance first thing upon arriving at Aryadelle.
Avery raised her eyebrows. "Did you think that you could return home?"
Elliot said, "Wasn't I discharged?"
"That's because we want to return to Aryadelle, which is why you need to get out of the hospital, but that doesn't mean your condition is good enough for you to get discharged." Avery got him to understand the reality. "You still need to stay in the hospital for at least a week."
Elliot closed his eyes and accepted his reality.
At the hospital, Avery walked in front of him and opened the door to the special care unit she reserved earlier for him.
