Chapter 502 Play Dumb

“Understood,” replied Colton, nodding in response. When Anna saw Hayden, she sympathetically limped closer to

the boy, her eyes filled with pity as her hand gently caressed the child’s head. “Can you hear me, Hayden? It’s me,

Grandma.” Anna called out to Hayden in a soft voice, but her grandson couldn’t seem to hear her at all.

Instead, the boy only giggled in a silly manner seconds before he slowly began to drool. However, Anna wasn’t

disgusted by that at all as she grabbed the napkin beside her and wiped Hayden’s mouth.

At the same time, she closed her eyes, her face written with exhaustion. “I’m going to get to the bottom of the

truth myself and find out who did this to my grandson! No one can stop me from finding the wicked culprit!” Anna

showed her determination angrily as Colton watched with his head down in silence.

After finishing her words, Anna turned around and walked out the door right away.

In the meantime, Nicole proceeded to feed Hayden with his meal and took him back upstairs. Although Hayden was

mentally ill, he didn’t appear to be hyperactive as expected from those who were mentally impaired.

Nonetheless, Nicole still took care of Hayden just like how she did when he was first born. Because of that, she was

so tired—both physically and mentally—that she unknowingly fell asleep on the bed.

On the other hand, Hayden returned to his sound self when he saw Nicole asleep. As he squinted, he peeked at his

tired mother and whispered, “I’m sorry, Mommy.”

Just when the boy extended his hand to caress his mother’s cheek, a man showed up at the door and had his eyes

glued onto the boy. When Hayden turned around, he saw Colton staring at him.

At that moment, Colton curled his lips upward and slowly walked closer to the bed to comfort Nicole before he

wrapped his arms around Hayden and carried him. Then, he took the child to his own room, squinting as he spoke

in a deep voice.

“Why are you pretending to act like a fool?” In fact, Colton had long seen through Hayden’s pretense, but since he

had no idea what the boy was up to, he decided not to expose the child and instead observed him first.

Meanwhile, Hayden decided that it was perhaps time for him to come clean since Colton had already seen through

him. At the same time, the man looked at the boy in a surprised manner due to the intimidating aura that the child

was giving off despite his young age.

That’s my boy! That’s the kind of spirit you should have even though you’re still a kid! Colton complimented Hayden

on the inside while looking at the child.

“Someone is trying to harm me,” Hayden replied, his eyes looking sober.

Colton furrowed his eyebrows and fixed his gaze upon the boy, asking, “Who is trying to harm you?”

Hayden pursed his lips and hesitated for a while before he answered, “It’s Queenie.”

“How sure are you?” Colton asked, fixing his eyes on the boy after remaining silent for a few moments.

“I’m eighty-percent sure,” Hayden answered.

“Are you trying to fool her into lowering her guard by playing dumb?” Colton asked, wondering if Hayden’s idea

would work out.

I don’t care who the culprit is, but Julia said that someone tried to kill Hayden, although whoever did that failed to

do so. Nevertheless, now that Hayden is acting like a child who is mentally unsound, he wouldn’t pose a threat to

whoever wants him dead.

Hayden rolled his eyes upward and grunted. “I know you managed to get a man with the same name as yours, but

she still has no idea what’s going on. Thus, she is dreaming of marrying you, which is what makes me an obstacle in

her way. After all, I’m your son.”

Surprisingly, this kid does have a point. Colton agreed with Hayden as he was able to see the situation from his

perspective. “Are you saying that she’s trying to get rid of you so that she can marry into the Gardner Family?”

Colton asked. Despite the rhetorical question, he sounded firm and certain.
