My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1321

“W–Who are you? Where’s Ruka? I want to talk to Ruka,” Jethro cried out frantically.

“Jethro, he’s my boyfriend. Don’t call me again,” Ruka said gravely.

“I don’t believe that! Ruka, didn’t you have a crush on me for three years? Why would you start dating someone in less than a month?” Jethro refused to believe what he was hearing.

Ruka turned to the side and spotted the frown on Ren’s face, along with the dangerous glint in his At the very next second, she felt her chin being lifted and his lips crashing against hers. eyes.

“Mmph…” Ruka gasped.

Ren tossed the phone aside and cupped her tiny face with his large hands as he deepened the kiss.

“Ruka, are you listening to me?” Jethro’s anxious voice came through the speakers of her phone.

However, he did not receive an answer and had he paid closer attention, he would have been able to tell that the owner of the phone was currently occupied!

Ruka was only released from her punishment when she ran out of oxygen. She was still gasping for air when she picked her phone up and said, “Jethro, don’t call me anymore. Goodbye…”

She was not completely out of it and remembered to end the call. Just then, she heard his commanding voice right beside her ear. “From now on, you’re not allowed to meet up with any man without me knowing about it.”

Ruka looked up at him. “Are you telling me that you’ve never met up with any other women before me?”

“If you’re referring to dating and romance, no,” he declared without hesitation.

“Haven’t you ever liked someone before?” Ruka asked tentatively. She did not dare assume that she was the only one he ever liked.

“No.” His heated breath washed all over her face.

“Well, haven’t you ever—”

“I don’t want anyone else besides you,” he announced right beside her ear. His voice had a magnetism to it that made her toes curl. She trembled at the sound of it. She relished the dominance of his love.

It was almost as if she could imagine just how spoiled she would be as they spent their future together. She took the initiative to wrap her arms around his neck. “Alright. I promise that from now on, you’re the only one I love. I won’t like anyone else.”

The best way to respond to his love was to love him as deeply as he did.

Ren was finally satisfied. He had a faint smile as he kissed her on the forehead. “Good.”

Ruka gazed at the gorgeous face in front of her right now. He looked like a sculpture beneath the warm glow of the light–so perfect that he took her breath away.

My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1322

“Have you seen enough yet? Feel free to continue staring once we’re back in the bedroom,” he said with a smile.

Ruka blushed when she heard him mentioning the bedroom. She let go of his neck and said, “I’ll save it for now. I have the rest of my life to enjoy it at leisure.”

A chuckle escaped him. His chest rose and fell as he laughed, and the sound was just as intoxicating as his face.

Ruka returned to the bedroom while the servants cleared the dining room. Ren went back to his study to carry on working. He was on the phone every time she went to check in on him. It was evident that Christmas was not a period of rest for him, but a time when his workload increased instead.

When Ren set his phone down at last, he checked his watch and saw that it was already half past ten. He walked out of his study and knocked on Ruka’s door.

She was reading the news on her iPad and hoping that everyone was safe during the holidays. That way, her boyfriend would have time to rest too.

“You should go to sleep first.” Ren sat down on the edge of the bed and stroked her hair.

“Do you still have a lot of work to do?”

“I’m almost done,” he assured her.

“In that case, why don’t I wait up for you?” Ruka asked.

Ren smirked. “If you’re going to wait up for me, you should go and sleep in my room. What are you doing here?”

Ruka felt bad for how hard he had to work. She shook her head and said, “No, it’s fine. I won’t share your room with you. I’ll sleep here.”

It was bad enough that he had to stay up late for work. If she slept in the same room as him, she would disturb him and he would not be able to rest properly, so she decided against it.

He did not have enough time to sleep as it was. He would be even more exhausted if she made a fuss.

Ren was chiding himself as well. He brought her home with him but ended up leaving her all by herself because he had to work.

My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1323

Ren bent down and kissed her ruby–red lips. “Be a good girl and sleep first.”

Ruka wanted more, so she put her arms around his neck and kissed him. Ren’s breath caught in his throat. Whenever she made the first move, he felt like he was being tested within an inch of his life.

She felt a little shy after the kiss, but her heart swelled with fondness when she saw his loving eyes. “Don’t stay up working too late, or I’d be upset.”

“I won’t,” Ren promised.

After seeing him off, Ruka realized that she was not sleepy yet, so she continued reading the news. She had no interest in current events in the past, but now, she studied each article carefully.

As soon as Ren returned to his study, his phone started ringing. “Yes?”

“Sir, I just found out that Victoria Parfait met up with Orson Grady in private.” It was Elijah who was calling.

Ren’s brows furrowed tightly. He was angered by the way Victoria was out for vengeance after getting rejected. However, if anyone tried to hurt the woman he loved, he would never let them get away with it.

Morning came.

Ruka woke up at seven. The first thing she did was scamper off to the main bedroom, but she encountered Elijah, who was sitting on the couch outside the room. When Elijah saw her, he quickly made a shushing sound and she quietened her footsteps as well. After sitting down beside him, she asked softly, “Is he still asleep?”

“He only went to bed at three in the morning, so it’s good if he can sleep in a little longer,” Elijah muttered back. His eyes were red from lack of sleep as well.

“Is there so much that needs to be done now?”

“Well, it’s the end of the year and the elections are coming up in May too. Sir would have his hands full with just one of those things, let alone both.” Elijah sighed. He had a lot on his plate as well, but he felt a deep sense of satisfaction and found great joy in his work.

Ruka began to wonder if it was a good thing for her to stay with Ren. She was supposed to be accompanying him, but it seemed like she was taking up his time instead.

“I’ll move back home today then. I don’t want to disturb him,” Ruka decided.

Elijah smiled. “It’s better if you stayed here, Miss Singed. If you’re here, Sir won’t have to spend his time thinking about you. He can use that time on other things instead.”

Ruka’s cheeks turned a little pink as she said shyly, “It’s not as if he spends his whole day thinking about me.”

“But if you’re not by his side, wouldn’t it mean that he’ll have to spend all his free time thinking about you?” Elijah prompted with a smile.

My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1324

Ruka felt her heart grow fuzzy. Is that true? Elijah’s been with Ren for so many years now so he must know him very well. Does this mean that he spends all of his free time thinking about me?

If this were the case, then it meant she owed him a lot. She had been preoccupied with another guy before returning to the country and had only started thinking about him more once he

confessed to her.

I’ll spend more time thinking about him from now on! Ruka thought with a smile as the door to the main bedroom opened. Ren came out all dressed and ready for work. He looked immaculate and downright mesmerizing in his black three–piece suit.

He spotted the two people who were chatting away on the couch beside his door. His eyes narrowed with a glint as she stared at the woman who was still in her pajamas while she engaged in conversation with his assistant.

Elijah got up right away. “You’re up, Sir.”

Ruka followed suit, but by then, he had marched straight up to her. He put his arm around her waist and led her right back to her room.

She was a little shocked and embarrassed. Elijah is right there! What’s he doing? Is it okay for him to be acting this way in broad daylight?

Though, she was the one who got the wrong idea. Ren took her back to her room and said, “Come out when you’re properly dressed.”

Ruka glanced down and gulped. Yikes! I’m still in my pajamas! No wonder he looked displeased.

She headed downstairs after she changed out of her pajamas and saw the two men waiting for her at the dining table.

Ruka sat down beside Ren with a smile. When she saw Elijah poring over a stack of documents, she suggested, “Elijah, why don’t you finish breakfast first before reading that?”

“Oh, it’s fine. I’m used to it.” Elijah looked up with a grateful smile.

Ruka turned to study the man beside her. She wanted to see if he had enough rest. Ren turned to look at her as well and she pitied him when she saw his eyes. “Look at those dark circles! What time did you sleep last night?”

My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1325

Ren rubbed his eyes. “Really? Do I look terrible?”

Ruka shook her head. He did not look bad, actually. It just made his eyes seem deeper. Still, she felt bad that he had to stay up so late.

“I’ll give you a massage.” Ruka massaged his temples since the servants had not brought breakfast out yet.

Elijah glanced up and saw the two of them gazing at each other affectionately without any consideration for his poor, lonely soul.

Ren smiled as he enjoyed the relaxing massage, and his dimples appeared.

The sight of him now pleased Ruka. She loved seeing his smile, which was so refined and hypnotic.

The morning rays shone in through the window, and Ruka’s bare face was lit up so clearly that even her peach fuzz could be seen. Her fair skin seemed to glow under the light.

Her lips were slightly parted, making her look a little bewitching as she called out to him wordlessly.

Ren could not be bothered to care about anyone in the room right now. His large hands reached out to cup her chin and he bent down to kiss her on the lips.

Ruka turned red. She withdrew her hand bashfully and threw a furtive look in Elijah’s direction.

She could see the smile that Elijah was struggling to hide. It was obvious that he saw what they did just now. She bit her lip and glared at the man beside her. Shouldn’t these sorts of things be done in the privacy of the bedroom instead?

Breakfast was served just in time.

Elijah took the chance to inform Ren of the meetings and itinerary for the day. When Ruka heard how full his schedule was, she blinked and thought to herself, How can anyone handle having that much to do in one day?

If it were her, she would have been drained after just one meeting, but he had four in one day.

“It must be exhausting to have so many meetings,” Ruka could not help but comment aloud.

“Don’t worry, Miss Singed. Most of the meetings would involve other people reporting to Mr. Husson. All he has to do is sit in and listen.”

“Cancel my dinner plans. I’ll come home for dinner,” Ren instructed. He did not want to spend the entire day without at least spending a few hours with Ruka.

My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1326

When Ruka heard what he said, she surmised that he wanted to have dinner with her and quickly said, “No, it’s fine. Work is more important. I’m okay with eating dinner by myself.”

“Yes, Sir. I’ll clear your schedule for dinner,” Elijah replied.

Ruka turned to Ren. “You don’t need to accompany me, really. You have a lot of work to do right now. I totally understand.”

“Miss Singed, you don’t need to try and convince him. You’re the most important person to him, so work can wait,” Elijah said with a chuckle.

Ruka turned to the side and locked gazes with a pair of mirthful eyes. Even she could the affection in them.

spot

She smiled shyly. “Alright! I’ll wait for you to come home for dinner.”

After seeing Ren off, Ruka took her phone and went out to the balcony to give her parents a call.

Claire could not hide the emotion in her voice as she asked, “Ruka, is Ren treating you alright?”

“He’s very good to me, Mom. You don’t have to worry!”

“There’s nothing for me to worry about, of course. You silly girl, you should have told us from the start and we wouldn’t have scolded you.”

“I’m sorry, Mom. It’s my fault.” Ruka felt bad for scaring her mother like that.

“It’s fine. Everything’s in the past now. All we have to do now is wait until the elections are over, and then you and Ren can get married! Your father and I have been wondering what we did in our past lives that gave us the fortune of having our daughter marry such a great man.”

Ruka did not know whether to laugh or cry. She could understand why her parents were so excited as she too had felt like she had struck gold when she found out that Ren liked her. However, while it did feel like a dream back then, she had come to accept it with time. All she wanted to do now was to improve herself and become a better person who could stand shoulder to shoulder with him.

Being the one that Ren chose to spend the rest of his life with came with a lot of added pressure. Ruka dared not even consider the thought of wasting her life away. While she looked forward to being doted on by him, she was determined to give it her all too!

My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1327

At Meyers Residence.

Gilbert and his wife, Daphne, had prepared a sumptuous meal for their daughter and son–in–law to–be. Though Angela and Richard were not married yet, the wedding was taking place soon after Christmas, and all the old Meyers couple could think about was the grandchild they would soon be having.

Angela wanted to bring out her old photo albums for Richard to see, but as soon as she took them, Daphne rushed over and stopped her. “Hey! Put that down. You shouldn’t be carrying such heavy things. I’ll do it. Give it to me.”

“Mom! Aren’t you being a little too paranoid? It’s just a photo album!” Angela shook her head helplessly. It was not like she was made of glass. She was just pregnant! She still felt the same as ever!

The only exception was the limitations imposed on the couple’s nightly activities, which was something Angela was greatly displeased with. She wanted to enjoy their honeymoon year with just the two of them.

Gilbert was enjoying a cup of tea and he laughed when he heard the exchange. “Your mother’s just too anxious. She’s been losing sleep too, you know? She didn’t sleep well at all for the past two days.”

“It’s only because I can’t wait to hold my grandchild!” Daphne fretted over her daughter. Angela was her precious baby, one she raised for so many years, and childbirth was no easy feat. How could her baby, who was scared of needles and doing blood tests, be able to withstand the pain of childbirth?

Richard took it all in and figured out the best way to shower his wife with affection. He got up and took Angela’s album from her. “From now on, leave anything that weighs over one pound to me.”

Angela snorted and leaned against his shoulder. “Why are you getting paranoid too?!”

Richard helped her to the couch before he started taking a look at the photo album. Gilbert went out to take a call, while Daphne busied herself in the kitchen.

My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1328

Outside, the world was covered in a layer of clean, white snow; but inside, it was warm and cozy.

“Oh goodness me! Mom, why did you include a photo of me with my diaper soaking wet?!” Angela called out to Daphne in embarrassment.

She covered the photo with her hands and turned to the man beside her. “You’re not allowed to see this one.”

Richard smirked and did not protest. After turning the page, he saw three–year–old Angela who was a pretty little girl dressed in a princess gown. She looked adorable.

As Richard sat there flipping through the photos, he began to yearn for a daughter–one that would be as pretty and cute as Angela was.

He would spend the rest of his life loving her and protecting her.

“Let’s have a daughter! One that looks just like you,” Richard said hoarsely.

Angela smiled. “Alright.”

They continued to look at photo after photo as Angela described the event or story behind each

one.

It was now afternoon.

Ruka spent the entire morning reading in the study. All of a sudden, she recalled the little kitten she saw with Ren the last time. He didn’t take it home with him. Did he leave it at a pet store for them to take care of it on his behalf?

She spotted a notebook that looked rather old. It stood out among the other books, so she reached out to grab it. She yanked on it too hard and it slipped out of her grasp.

Although she managed to catch it before it fell to the ground, a few photos still fell out and scattered on the floor.

Ruka gasped in surprise when she saw the photos. They were photos of her when she was little.

After picking them up to take a closer look, she realized they were photos taken of her when she was four or five years old. Why did she not have any recollection of it?

The toddler–sized her had a rather pompous and overbearing expression on her face. She was surprised that Ren had these photos.

“Why did he keep these ugly–looking photos of me when he could’ve kept nicer ones instead?” Ruka grumbled.

She sat down and began to look through the notebook. However, she realized that it wasn’t his notebook. Instead, the notebook was filled with squiggly lines and scrawled writing that seemed to have been done by a three–year–old.

A lightbulb went off in her head. A three–year–old? Was it me? Is this mine from when I was learning how to write back at Husson Residence?

True enough, after flipping through several pages, she found a barely readable scribble of her name, Ruka Singed.

Her heart skipped a beat. Ren must have taught her how to write when she was little. As she continued staring at the writing, her heart grew warm.

It was possible to find traces of love etched in time, after all. Ruka rested her chin on her hands and thought about how well–hidden Ren’s love for her had been. If it had not been for that, she would have at least sensed something sooner.

My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1329

This was all well and good, but Ruka could still recall how fierce he was when he lectured her all the home on that fateful day when she did poorly on her exam and got drenched in the rain.

She was vexed. He had seen her at all of her worsts, while he seemed to have been perfect all this while. It felt like the star student was pairing up with the one who scored the lowest.

Eventually, she returned the notebook to its spot with the photos as well. She was going to pretend that she never found this, but of course, she was not going to forget about it.

Ruka sent Ren a text about the cat. She wanted to know if he could bring it back for her to raise.

Ren’s reply was simple. ‘Alright.‘

At half past five that evening.

When Ruka heard the sound of a car approaching the front of the house, she jogged to the door to greet him. As soon as Ren got out of the car, she flung herself into his arms without wasting a second longer.

Ren held her steady with his long arms and kissed her head.

Meanwhile, Elijah opened the trunk and took out the little kitten Ruka had been thinking of.

“Mr. Husson got someone to look after the kitten, but it’s yours to care for now, Miss Singed. We’ve brought the food and supplies as well.”

Ruka took the little cutie out of the carrier and the kitten began to meow weakly in her arms. Her heart melted at the sight.

“It’s so cute! Let’s raise it together!”

Ren nodded and agreed with an indulgent expression, “Sure. Raise it together.”

“Both you and the cat,” he added.

Ruka’s cheeks flushed red. Thankfully, Elijah and the bodyguards had cleared off. Her heart felt warm and fuzzy as she said, “I’ll raise the cat and you can raise me.”

“It’s a deal.” They walked into the house with the kitten in her arms, and she in his.

While Ruka stayed in the living room to play with the cat, Ren and Elijah headed into the study. The atmosphere started to get a little tense.

“Sir, do you mean that Orson won’t use your relationship with Miss Singed against you?”

 

 

 

My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1330

“I know what his tendencies are. He won’t harp on this matter, and he knows that even if he exposed my relationship with Ruka, it won’t affect my chances during the elections. However, Ruka will become his target instead,” Ren stated gravely.

“Alright. I understand. From now on, we’ll need to keep Miss Singed and her family safe.” Elijah nodded.

Ren’s family was well–protected, so now, Ruka was his weakness.

“Use as many men as needed. Make sure that Ruka and her family remain safe,” Ren instructed.

“I will, Sir. Oh, by the way, Miss Parfait has been taken in for a meeting. She will be resigning next week.”

The feasting carried on today as the festive mood lingered. Elijah stayed late for work and thus joined them for dinner.

Ruka sat on the couch and played with the little kitten in her lap. It had gotten a proper shower at the pet store, so its fur was clean and smooth to the touch. She was pretty sure that it was one of the most gorgeous cats alive.

She smiled when she saw the two men coming downstairs. As soon as Ren stepped onto the landing, the cat leaped out of her arms and ran over to him. He stopped and it started climbing up his pants to try and snuggle in his arms.

Ren had a smile on his face as he crouched down to pick the kitten up. Ruka felt like a giddy school girl again when she saw this. It was adorable in an odd way to see him hugging a cat.

He carried himself with an air of dominance, but having a cat in his arms softened his intimidating aura and added a touch of gentleness to him. Any young woman who saw him right now would wish to be the cat in his arms!

Ruka could not help but recall the way she used to fantasize about being a cat in his arms. She blushed at the thought. Dreams were worth having after all. Who knew if they might come true one day?

Ren sat down on the couch with the cat still nestled against him. He looked a lot more relaxed as his fingers combed through the cat’s fur. He turned to the young woman beside him and said, “Your parents will be moving to a new house tomorrow.”

“Huh? Did Mom and Dad buy a house?” Ruka was taken aback. Why did they not tell her?

“Miss Singed, they did not buy a house. Mr. Husson is the one who prepared the house that they’ll be moving into,” Elijah explained from the side.
