Chapter 1891

My Baby's Daddy chapter 1891--Ellen knew that it was the latter, but she felt like she was dreaming and couldn’t believe it was real. “Did I scare you today?” Jared asked as he was done putting ointment on her wound.

Lost in thought, Ellen met his gaze and her heart skipped a beat. She wanted to shake her head but nodded instead. “A little bit.”

Jared stood up and caressed her head. “I got angry at them, not you. Why were you so nervous?”

Ellen didn’t dare say that he looked really scary when he got angry! “Don’t wander around and rest well in the office.” Jared finished his sentence and took the medicine box with him as he left.

Shortly after, Ellen’s phone rang. It was Connor, so she answered, “Hello! Uncle Connor!” “Ellie, it’s my birthday this Saturday and I want to have a big party. You have to come.”

“Okay, I will be there.” Ellen couldn’t refuse because her uncle was the closest person to her in the world.

The following week, Ellen went to work every morning and attended driving school every afternoon. She felt fulfilled, especially during her thrilling driving lessons that had her nerves stretched tight. She could see that Jared was also busy, he was either attending meetings or en route to one.

Occasionally, she saw him talking in the corridor with the company’s high-level executives as if they were solving a big problem. So, she tried not to disturb him.

Early Thursday morning, Ellen’s bank account was credited with her salary from last month, which totaled around 82,000. She was puzzled when she saw the amount on her company card. Why was the amount so high? It was her first month’s salary, and there were even decimals. This meant that the finance department had calculated her salary accurately!

Ellen suddenly began to wonder what the purpose of her job was. What she had done was to make a few cups of coffee for Jared, goof off, read books, and study for her driver’s license. Yet, he still paid her such a high salary. To be honest, she felt a little guilty for accepting the salary.

Soon, it was Friday and the week was about to end. When Ellen left work, she intentionally left late. At that time, Jared was still in a meeting. Even though her heart ached for him, she didn’t know how to cheer him up. She thought for a moment and wrote a note. After completing it, she sneaked into his office and stuck the note on the corner of his computer screen.

After sticking the note, she left. At 7.30PM, Jared, who was a bit tired, left the meeting room and returned to his office. He was in a bad mood, but when he sat down on his chair, he suddenly noticed a heart-shaped note.

In his solemn office, it was rare to see something so girly. He took it down and read the words written on it. His furrowed brows finally relaxed, and a smile appeared on his lips.

President Presgrave, I wanted to check on you these past few days, but I didn’t want to disturb you. So, I can only offer you words of encouragement. I wish you happiness and good health. Remember to take a break! Your assistant, Ellen.’

Jared also realized with regret that he had neglected her lately, so he picked up his phone and dialed her number.

At that moment, Ellen was on her way home in a cab. When she heard her phone ringing, she picked it up and her heart skipped a beat. It was from Jared. Did he see the note I left?

Ellen regretted her actions and felt that it was too childish. “Hello, President Presgrave! Have you finished your meeting?”

“Rather than writing me a note to show your concern, it’s better if you accompany me for a meal.”

“Ah! But I’ve already taken a cab home.” “Then wait for me at your doorstep. I’ll be right there.” The man on the other end of the line sounded bossy.

Nevertheless, Ellen’s heart felt sweet as she replied, “I haven’t gone far. I’ll wait for you at the mall.” “Okay,” the man said.

Soon, Ellen got off the cab and waited for him in a conspicuous location. Sure enough, in less than 10 minutes, the man’s sports car came into view. It was very eye-catching among the other cars.

Then, Ellen opened the car door and got in. Inside, the man wore a simple white shirt, looking both charming and enigmatic. This man made her think of a phrase, ‘The simpler, the more luxurious’.

My Baby's Daddy chapter 1892-- Shortly after, they pulled up at the restaurant Jared often visited in the sports car. There, Ellen gave him a once-over under the bright light. He had faint dark circles under his eyes like he hadn’t slept in ages.

Jared was glued to his phone, sorting through work emails. Even without looking up, he could tell she was staring at him. But under her gentle gaze, he felt at ease and felt no awkwardness from her checking him out.

After a moment, he finally lifted his head to look at her. He could tell she was a bit shy, which he found pretty cute. “So, what’s on the agenda for tomorrow?” he asked.

“I’m probably going to my uncle’s house for his birthday.” “What time?”

“It’ll probably be noon because other relatives will go over too.” Ellen shrugged; she wasn’t too sure. “Got it. You’re mine for the night then,” Jared stated with some dominance.

Ellen blushed at his words. That sounded suggestive. What exactly did he mean by that? All night long?

“What do you want to do tomorrow night?” she asked, curious. “I just want to kick back and relax. Also, I want you there with me,” Jared said with a directness that caught Ellen off guard.

Ellen blinked, thinking about the last time they watched the moon together on the beach. She nodded and replied, “All right, just hit me up with the details tomorrow night.”

After dinner, Jared didn’t rush to drop her off at home. Instead, they cruised around town at a leisurely pace, soaking in the music and city lights.

Ellen was loving the moment. She wasn’t after anything in particular, and she just wanted to be near him. If only time could just freeze like this.

Around 9.30PM, Jared parked his car at the entrance to Ellen’s residential area. Suddenly, he asked, “Do you have a guest room at your place?”

Ellen nodded. “Yeah, I do.” “I’m tired. Mind if I crash at your place for a bit?” Jared said before hopping out of the car.

Ellen got out too and looked at him, a bit concerned. She nodded and replied, “Sure. Just take a rest and then head out when you’re ready.”

When they got to Ellen’s place, Jared made. himself comfortable. He didn’t even bother going to the guest room; he just laid down on the couch. His long legs were stretched out with one arm propping his head. Under the light, Ellen could see his muscles bulging through his white shirt. He had the kind of body that even models would kill for.

Ellen didn’t know what to do with herself. Should I stay here with him or retreat to my own room?

“I’ll head to my room now, President Presgrave. Let me know if you need anything.” Ellen finally decided that it would be too awkward to stay. Thus, she went back to her room.

Jared smirked a little, cracking open his eyes. He was indeed tired, though. Crashing at Ellen’s place is really cozy.

Ellen showered and came back out, only to find that Jared had fallen asleep. She stepped over to him as quietly as can be to check on him.

As much as she didn’t want to admit it, the man looked good even when he was sleeping. I have to admit that he looks pretty good even when he’s sleeping but staring at him for too long makes me feel all fluttery inside, and that’s not good. So, it’s best not to stare.

Ellen was about to turn around when she heard a low male voice behind her. “This couch is not that comfortable to sleep on; can I sleep on your bed instead?”

Ellen’s eyes widened. Oh my gosh! Is he actually asleep or not?

Without thinking, she quickly replied, “Uh, sure! You can sleep on my bed!” With that, the man got up and looked at her with a pair of sleepy black eyes. “Did you take a shower?”

Ellen nodded. “Yes, I did.”

“You smell good.” Ellen blushed a little, and just then, the man grabbed her hand and pulled her toward the main bedroom. “President Presgrave…” Ellen was about to faint. Is this guy drunk or what?

Jared didn’t seem to care. He just pulled her to the bed, and the two of them fell upon the soft mattress. Jared’s weight on Ellen made it hard for her to breathe. He’s too burly!

When she opened her eyes, she saw his smiling gaze looking down at her, not a hint of sleepiness in sight. He was clearly teasing her.

“Are you going to sleep or what?” Ellen asked, a bit annoyed.

My Baby's Daddy chapter 1893--“Yes, I’ll sleep, Jared responded hoarsely. “But you have to stay with me.” He spoke with dominance as he grabbed Ellen tightly so that her face was against his chest while her body was in his arms.

Ellen’s hand was held down and she felt uncomfortable, so she tried to adjust her position. “Don’t move.” A sudden warning came to her ear, sounding dangerous..

Ellen stiffened, afraid to move. She was like a big ragdoll being held by the man that was helping him fall asleep.

She didn’t even dare to breathe too loudly, not knowing how long he would hold her like this. She wondered if being his human pillow was part of her job responsibilities. Aside from sleeping on my bed and holding me to sleep, will he have other strange requests?

Ellen’s head was a mess, and she couldn’t tell if he had already fallen asleep. She was torn between whether to look at him or not.

In the end, she lifted her head cautiously, but she accidentally hit the man’s hard jaw with her forehead. When she looked up to see if he was awake, she found herself looking into his deep, captivating eyes. The next thing she knew, he was holding her face, and his hot lips fell on hers at once.

How could he be asleep? He was in his sexual prime at 26 years old!

Blushing, Ellen couldn’t catch her breath as he kissed her hard. She felt that this was the first time a man had appeared so dangerous and made her feel so vulnerable.

“No… No, that’s not part of my job description,” Ellen gasped, somewhat irritated.

Jared’s breathing was slightly ragged as he propped himself up to look at her. Then, Ellen pushed him away with her hands on his firm chest and blushed, saying, “My job doesn’t involve warming your bed.”

“Job?” Jared was surprised. Did this girl think she was still working her hours?

Ellen’s hand was placed on his strong chest, but she thereafter withdrew it shyly. This man’s aura is just too overwhelming.

“Be my girlfriend!” The man suddenly leaned down and spoke in a low and earnest voice. He was holding her face so that she couldn’t avoid him.

Ellen couldn’t resist his advances. At that moment, her mind went blank. Blinking, she stared hard at him.

“From now on, you don’t have to work, and I’ll take care of you. I’ll give you whatever you want,” Jared proposed with some very favorable conditions.

“Then… Will we get married?” Ellen blinked, wanting a stable future. “Of course. When my parents come back from abroad, I’ll introduce you to them,” Jared answered firmly.

Ellen felt like she was dreaming. He is such an outstanding man while I am just an ordinary woman. Why would he choose me? “You don’t have to answer me now. Take three days to think about it.”

The man kissed her on the forehead and added, “I’m going home.”

Ellen felt the pressure and weight on her body lifted, but it also brought a sense of disappointment to her heart. It was such a conflicting feeling-on one hand, she wanted him to stay, but on the other hand, she was afraid.

“Don’t you want to rest for a while more?” Ellen asked as she stood up. “Before 10.00AM on Monday, I need your answer.” The man picked up his phone and car keys from the table and even set a time for her.

Ellen blushed and nodded. She was relieved that she wasn’t forced to give an answer right now, so she felt more relaxed.

Jared was finally satisfied and opened the door to leave. As he closed the door, his brows furrowed with discomfort. He left not because he didn’t want to stay with her, but because he was afraid of losing control and hurting her.

Ellen bit her lip, her face still red. All she could think about was the kiss from earlier. It was beautiful and sweet. If her last bit of reason hadn’t held her back, she wouldn’t have been able to resist this man. However, what she didn’t know was that her resistance had already defeated 99.99% of other women because this man’s appeal was so overwhelming that few could resist when he took initiative.

That night, Ellen couldn’t sleep. For the first time in 23 years, she experienced what it was like to lose sleep because of a man.

My Baby's Daddy chapter 1894--At 9.00AM, Ellen received a call from Connor. Still groggy, she mumbled a response to him and at the same time, she noticed an address in her message inbox. After that, she set her alarm and promptly went back to sleep.

When her alarm went off again, it was already 11.50AM. Ellen quickly got dressed and rushed out the door. She was on her way to Connor’s 50th birthday party at a luxurious hotel where three tables were reserved for his celebration. Olivia was ecstatic while Selena dressed up in an evening gown with exquisite makeup.

“Will Ellen come for sure, Dad?” Selena asked. “Yes, I just spoke to her on the phone. She wouldn’t be so petty as to not come,” replied Connor. With more people attending, he would have more face to show.

These days, Selena had been planning how to meet Lambert, but the only person who could attract him was Ellen. Selena became preoccupied with how to use Ellen to reach her goal. Soon, relatives and friends of the family arrived, including the three Andino siblings who had a grudge against Ellen.

Ellen arrived late at 12.30PM, and as soon as she pushed the door open, everyone’s eyes turned to her. Connor immediately came over and said, “Come on, Ellie. Come sit at this table.”

He then led her to the table where Selena and the Andinos were seated. Ellen felt the cold stares of the Andinos and just wanted to finish the meal and leave. Before taking a seat, she left the gift she prepared for Connor on the gift table.

When Selena saw her arrive, her attitude softened given that it was her father’s birthday. “Why are you late? Was there a lot of traffic?”

“No, I overslept,” Ellen replied. “Where were you last night?” Selena quickly asked. Ellen’s face inexplicably turned red. “I was with a friend,” she answered.

Selena immediately guessed who that friend was. Who else would Ellen have as a friend? She suspected that the friend was Jared Presgrave.

At that moment, Selena’s appetite vanished. She couldn’t believe how rich and colorful Ellen’s life had become. She even suspected that Ellen and Jared were already together. Perhaps, Ellen would even announce that she would become Mrs. Presgrave and the boss lady of the Presgrave Group very soon! If that were the case, it would be a nightmare for her.

Selena’s eyes gleamed with a sly light. She had to stop this from happening. If Ellen were with another man, Jared would surely be jealous. It would be easy for Jared to get rid of that other man if it were an ordinary man, but what if the man pursuing Ellen was Lambert?

That day at the club, she had a strong suspicion that Lambert was interested in Ellen. Though she didn’t want to admit it, Lambert’s behavior toward Ellen was like love at first sight.

But how could she bait Lambert to go near Ellen? Selena’s mind raced.

On the other hand, Ellen focused on her food and decided to leave after she finished her meal. She noticed the resentful and aggressive stares from the Andino elders as well as their hostility toward her.

Thus, she went over to Connor and wished him a happy birthday before saying, “Uncle Connor, I have something else to take care of, so I’m leaving now.”

“Leaving so soon? Can’t you stay a bit longer?” Connor was visibly happy and a little drunk. Ellen replied quickly, “I have something important to attend to.”

“All right, then come over and visit us when you’re free, Connor said.

Ellen grabbed her bag and hurried out. Selena immediately followed her, calling out to her in the corridor. ‘Ellie, I left my ID at your place. I want to go look for it.”

Ellen was surprised. “I’ve cleaned up my place, and I didn’t see your ID anywhere.” “I’m sure it’s there. It might be in the corner of your bed. I need it urgently, so I want to go to your place to look for it,” Selena insisted.

“I’ll look for it back home and send it over to you once I find it,” Ellen replied, not wanting Selena to go to her place.

Selena thought for a moment and then pulled out a bracelet. “Oh, I almost forgot. This is the bracelet that Mr. Orey told me to give to you after you left last time. He also told me to make sure that you receive it.”

My Baby's Daddy chapter 1895--Ellen was taken aback. Did Lambert give me this bracelet as a gift? “Take it quickly. If

you don’t want it, you can return it to Mr. Orey personally.” Selena said “You took it, so

you should be the one to return it,” Ellen replied, not wanting to get involved. Besides,

she wasn’t close to Lambert.

Suddenly, Selena put a note and the bracelet on the table, then crossed her arms.

Sneering, she said, “Anyway, Mr. Orey’s phone number and bracelet are here. You

can return them yourself! If you don’t return them, he will think you accepted it.”

With that, Selena left. Ellen looked at the phone number and bracelet on the table,

feeling a little overwhelmed. Why is Lambert giving the bracelet to me?

She bit her lip. Maybe this was Selena’s way of playing a prank on her. She knew

Selena hadn’t left, so she turned and walked toward the door. Seeing that Ellen didn’t

fall for it, Selena came out from around the corner where she was hiding before

grabbing the bracelet and the note. In a moment of impulsivity, she picked up her

phone and dialed Lambert’s number.

At that moment, Lambert was working out at the club when he heard his phone ring.

He was surprised to see an unfamiliar number and answered, “Hello? Who’s this?”

“Hello, Mr. Orey. I’m Selena Aguirre. My cousin, Ellen Reiss, wants to meet you.”

Lambert raised an eyebrow. “Ellen wants to meet me?”

Hearing his charismatic voice, Selena wished she could say she wanted to meet him

herself. She smiled sweetly and said, “Yes, today is my father’s birthday. My cousin

and I were chatting. and she said she wants to meet you. The other day, she couldn’t

talk to you much because she was with President Presgrave.”

“Really?” “Yes! She told me she had a great first impression of you. I’ll send you her

number, you can chat with her if you have time!” Lambert was pleasantly surprised. “Is

this really true?”

“Of course, it is! I’ll send you Ellen’s number, but don’t say it was me who gave it to

you!” Selena said, nervously hanging up the phone before sending Ellen’s number to

Lambert.

Lambert soon received a message with a phone number. He wasn’t one to dilly-dally,

so he immediately called the number. Meanwhile, Ellen had just left the hotel and was

walking along a path beside a small park when her phone rang. She saw that it was

an unfamiliar number, so she thought for a moment, then answered, “Hello? Who’s

this?”

“I’m Lambert Orey, Miss Reiss. Nice to meet you.” Ellen was stunned. “How did you

get my number?”

“Your cousin gave it to me. Didn’t you know?” Lambert replied, surprised.

Ellen now knew exactly what was going on in her heart. Selena deliberately arranged

for her and Lambert to meet, but she didn’t know what

Selena’s true intentions were. “I’m sorry, Mr. Orey. It must be a misunderstanding. My

cousin was just playing a prank on me,’ Ellen explained.

“A prank? Why did she do that to you?” Ellen hesitated, not sure how to answer.

“Um, there is a personal grudge between us, Mr. Orey. Anyway, I won’t bother you-”

Ellen tried to end the conversation, but someone suddenly snatched her phone away.

“Hey! My phone! Stop! Don’t run! Give me back my phone!” Ellen didn’t expect

someone to steal her phone in broad daylight.

Jared was the one who bought her that phone, so it was particularly precious to her.

How could she let someone just take it away like that? “Stop, don’t run!” Ellen

shouted, chasing after the thief without hesitation.

They were in a park, and the thief ran fast along the path, but he didn’t expect that the

girl whose phone he stole would actually catch up to him.

Meanwhile, Lambert had just experienced a robbery through the phone. He had heard

Ellen yelling about her phone, and since he was still connected to her through the

phone call, he could hear the thief’s footsteps. Then, he heard the thief pant, and

soon, the thief muttered angrily, “Damn it! When will she stop chasing after me?”

My Baby's Daddy chapter 1896--He vaguely heard Ellen shouting, “Give me my phone. Stop running!” Lambert felt his chest tighten at that instant. What if the robber is hostile and hurts her? He immediately found Selena’s number and called back using his friend’s phone.

“Hello? Who is this?” Selena’s voice rang out. “Lambert here! May I know what hotel your father is holding the birthday banquet in?” “We’re near Dawn Park. Are you coming over, Mr. Orey?”

He didn’t expect it to be so near to where he was. Because he was also nearby, he guessed that the place where Ellen lost her phone was around here as well.

about:blank

Although he didn’t know if he could find and help her, he grabbed the car keys and ran out without a second’s hesitation.

Selena hadn’t expected Lambert to call her. However, she couldn’t help feeling disappointed when he hung up after throwing out that question.

Lambert immediately drove his car around Dawn Park, his eyes constantly looking at the street and gate of the park.

His hands-free phone was still on call and he could hear the robber’s footsteps and breaths, as well as Ellen’s voice. He didn’t think she would pursue the robber so persistently.

At the same time, a sweaty Ellen was huffing and puffing at the south exit of Dawn Park. Even though she was running out of breath, she did not give up and always made sure she was at least 50 meters away from the robber.

The robber was a stout man in his early forties. He was running as hard as he could at this moment. “Stop right there!” Ellen shouted while she chased after him. “You damn woman!” the robber cursed.

Lambert’s sports car was parked by the side of the road. After he got out of the car with his phone in his hand and dashed into the park, he caught sight of an overweight man running toward him. The man was holding a phone in his hand.

Lambert didn’t care if this was the person Ellen was going after. He stepped forward and grabbed the man before he snatched the phone out of his hand.

“And who the f*ck are you?!” the robber shrieked in surprise as he peered at this scary, tall young man.

Lambert looked at the screen of the phone and even he couldn’t believe how much of at coincidence it was for him to bump into the thief who took Ellen’s phone. He swiftly threw a punch at the robber. Before the man could react, Lambert gave him another kick. “How dare you steal someone else’s phone? I’ll take you to the police station!”

When the thief heard Lambert mention the police station, he turned pale with fright. He knew he couldn’t afford to provoke the young man in front of him. He didn’t think he would have such terrible luck. Not only was he chased after he stole a phone, but he even ended up being punched and kicked.

Suddenly, he brandished a small knife from his pocket and slashed Lambert’s arm with it.

Lambert, who didn’t expect the knife at all, only felt a sharp pain in his arm when the knife scratched him. The robber took the chance to flee.

“Stop!” By the time Ellen caught up to Lambert, her legs almost gave out and she was dizzy from running. She was completely fixated on the robber. However, she lost him when she came running in this direction. Right as she panted with her arms on her waist, she heard a magnetic and pleasant male voice speak. “Stop chasing. I got your phone back.”

She whipped her head around and took a glance at the sight that left her dumbfounded. He was holding her phone and handing it to her. Seeing this, she immediately took the phone and made sure that it was indeed hers. “What… What are you doing here?’ she asked, puzzled.

“I asked your cousin where you might be. I guessed that your phone was stolen in a nearby park, so I tried my luck and came to see if I could find you. Surprise, surprise.” He let out a smile while he hid his injured arm behind his back. He admired her courage in chasing the thief.

He couldn’t help but ask, “It’s just a phone. Is it worth you running all the way?” “Of course! This phone is very, very important to me.” Ellen tightly held her phone, her joy evident in her eyes.

“Don’t tell me it’s from Young Master Jared!” Lambert made a guess. It was no wonder the thief snatched her phone as it was the latest model.

My Baby's Daddy chapter 1897--“Yeah.” Ellen’s pretty face turned pink as she nodded. “It’s from him.” “Well, where are you heading to? My car is close by. Let me drop you off,” Lambert offered.

Ellen quickly shook her head. “Thank you, but I can just grab a cab, Mr. Orey. “I got your phone back for you, didn’t I? Are you not going to buy me a cup of coffee?” he couldn’t help but ask with a smile.

However, at this moment, she suddenly noticed the blood dripping on the ground behind him. Shocked, she hurried around him, only to find that his arm was hurt. “You’re bleeding!” She froze at that.

“Ah, the robber had a knife. It grazed me when I was distracted. I’m alright. It’s just a small injury.” No longer hiding his wound after he said that, Lambert let the blood freely drip.

“This is not a small injury! You have to go to the hospital and get bandaged! Ellen quickly persuaded him. Lambert was caught by surprise and he asked expectantly, “Will you go with me?”

She looked at his wound, took out a tissue from her bag, and handed it to him. “Here. Try to stop the bleeding first.”

She folded the tissue and pressed it on his wound. “Forget it!” Ellen huffed. “I don’t think you can drive. I’ll get a cab and take you to the hospital.” He only felt his heart skip a beat as he looked at her. He wouldn’t stop the woman he fell for at first sight from being near to him.

Even though Lambert knew that she had feelings for Jared, he couldn’t help wanting to get close to her. “Alright! Let’s go!” He let her send him to the hospital.

She left the park and got a cab to send them to a nearby hospital. After they sat in the back seat, the driver drove as quickly as he could to the hospital. Out of nowhere, he suddenly made a sharp turn. Lambert couldn’t help but fall to Ellen’s side, his tall and big figure falling against. her shoulders. Even though their clothes separated them, Lambert still felt his heart beating wildly.

Breathing in, he caught the scent of the mild. fragrance drifting off of her body. It wasn’t some expensive perfume, but it was enough to get his heart racing.

about:blank

Ellen was so focused on getting him to the hospital that she didn’t care when he pressed. against her. Instead, she told the driver in front, “Sir, safety first!”

On the other hand, Lambert didn’t care about the speed of the car at all. He was now looking at Ellen’s face from up close. Despite being dressed in ordinary clothes, she couldn’t hide. her natural beauty.

Distracted from staring at her, he didn’t hold on tight when the driver suddenly stepped on the break, causing Lambert’s head to hit the back of the front seat with a bang.

“Ouch…” He covered his forehead and resigned to his fate. They got out of the car when they finally arrived at the hospital. Lambert was especially eye- catching because of the tracksuit he had on.

Ellen paid the money for him. After confirming that Lambert needed two stitches for this wound, Ellen sat down and waited for him at the nurses’ station. At this moment, a nurse suddenly enviously exclaimed to her, ‘Wow! Miss, your boyfriend is so hot!”

Ellen was left stunned upon hearing that. However, the man who was being patched up inside let out an amused smile at those words.

After the stitches were finished, he stepped out. with a layer of gauze wrapped around his arm. Still, that did not affect his overall outlook.

The two proceeded to leave the hospital. At the entrance, a paparazzo suddenly spotted and recognized Lambert. After all, the man was the son of a wealthy family and he was active on social media.

Seeing that he was accompanied by a beautiful woman, the paparazzo immediately raised his phone to take a picture. No matter what, this was a piece of news that could stir the Internet up.

Neither Lambert nor Ellen noticed that someone was stealing shots of them from the time Ellen hailed a cab to them getting into the vehicle. The car drove back in the direction of the park. “Hop off,” he said to her. “I’ll take you home.”

“It’s alright, Mr. Orey. You should go back and rest. Thank you for today. Goodbye. After she finished speaking, she continued to ride back home in the cab.

Lambert sighed. The two hours he spent with Ellen didn’t feel enough. He could finally understand why Jared kept such a close eye on her, she was someone whom people easily targeted.

My Baby's Daddy chapter 1898--Make sure you keep your eye on her, Jared. The day you cast her aside is the day I will take her away from you, Lambert thought to himself as he walked to his sports car.

about:blank

At the same time, he was glad that he came. He couldn’t begin to imagine Ellen being the one who was hurt if she and the robber got into a scuffle.

On the other end, Ellen was sitting in the car when she checked her phone. To her relief, it wasn’t damaged. She started fuming when she thought about what Selena had done. What on earth does she want?

about:blank

Some paparazzo had sold all the materials they captured today to a media company, and that company produced news and posted them on the company’s homepage at lightning speed.

One of the headlines was, ‘The Prince of a Shipping Company, which made it to the top of the list.

The first thing that showed up as soon as someone clicked on the article was a series of clear photos of Ellen and Lambert. Since the paparazzo took them up close, the photos were not blurry at all. Ellen, especially, had a high- definition photo taken from the front.

Even a frontal shot taken with the high- definition phone camera made her appear stunningly fresh. They looked like a young couple from the way she was all smiles when Lambert looked at her.

As soon as this news popped up online, the women who liked to pay attention to wealthy families were the first to find out. Selena was zoned out while she drove home. She wasn’t interested in staying when she knew that the elders would be playing cards next.

Her phone began to ring then. She took a glance at it before picking it up. “Hey, Lulu.”

“My goodness, Lena! Your cousin’s pretty capable, isn’t she? She has just seduced Young Master Jared and now, she even got Lambert wrapped around her finger as well! What is she, a sexy guy harvester?”

“What did you just say?’ Selena immediately pulled over to the side of the road and answered the call seriously. “Haven’t you seen it?! There’s a scandal between Lambert and Ellen! A paparazzo caught them.”

“Send it to me quickly.” Selena was shocked. She didn’t expect that Lambert and Ellen would get in touch with each other so soon with just a random phone call, and there was even a scandal about them online!

Soon, a link was sent to Selena’s phone. She immediately clicked on it to check what Lulu was talking about. Before she got to read the article, she already saw a few photos of Ellen and Lambert together at the entrance of the hospital. They seemed like they were in love.

“Damn it, Ellen! You managed to seduce Mr. Orey.” Selena was jealous and annoyed. She had to admit Ellen knew a thing or two about seducing men.

Her gaze soon turned cold as she sneered. Is she betraying Young Master Jared? I’m sure he would be mad if he knew how soon she got tangled up with another man!

Both of them are men who are probably favored by the Big Man above. Ellen might let go of the big fish for the small one and may end up getting nothing in the end! Ha!

While Selena let her thoughts run, she scrolled through her phone to look for Jared’s private number which she secretly photographed last time to send the link to him.

Thinking that Jared wouldn’t find her at busybody, she found the number and sent him. the link. It’s only a matter of time before Ellen is taught a lesson and abandoned! Selena looked forward to how Ellen would end up.

Ellen was someone who didn’t enjoy the Internet much. Because of that, she was still completely unaware of the scandal between herself and Lambert at the moment.

In a luxurious villa, a man who just came back from the gym picked up his phone and glanced at it habitually, only to see a message sent to him from an unfamiliar number.

His phone could filter out spam messages. In other words, the incoming messages he got were usually sent by people who knew his private number. He then clicked on this message and a sentence appeared. ‘Young Master Jared, there’s a scandal about your girlfriend. Check it out!’

Jared immediately pulled his eyebrows together into a deep frown. Despite not knowing who sent the message, he still couldn’t help clicking on the link. Soon, photos of Ellen and Lambert filled up the screen of his phone. His eyes quickly narrowed at the sight of it.

He took a look at the title above and then gazed at the photos before he read the article. From there, he learned that Lambert had appeared at the hospital with his girlfriend, and the media. also wrote about how the couple might have gone to the hospital for some kind of surgery.

My Baby's Daddy chapter 1899--Jared’s chest rose and fell erratically after he went through the article. This made his heart palpitate even more than the workout he just did. Why was Ellen with Lambert? What were they doing at the hospital?

It irked him to see Ellen and Lambert looking at each other smilingly in one of the photos. He got jealous every time she smiled at a man who wasn’t him.

To understand what exactly happened, Jared gave Ellen a call without any hesitation. He was someone who didn’t like to drag matters out. If he had any questions, he would ask them on the spot.

Ellen was sprawled out on her couch reading a book when she heard her phone’s ringtone go off. She swiftly took a glance at it. Jared? she wondered. Why is he calling me?

“Hi, President Presgrave!” Out of habit, she called him like an employee would their superior.

“Where did you go today? You told me this morning that you don’t have time in the afternoon. Were you with someone?” The man was in full-on interrogation mode.

She was taken aback for a second, but she soon replied truthfully, “I went to my uncle’s birthday banquet in the afternoon. I came home not long ago.” “Are you sure you only went to the birthday banquet? You weren’t with other men?”

Of course, Ellen didn’t take her being with Lambert too seriously, so she replied without thinking, “Nope!” “Ellen…” Jared’s voice sank as he growled, “I don’t like being lied to.”

She only blinked. She didn’t understand why he suddenly grew serious. I… I’m not lying. I only went to my uncle’s birthday banquet this afternoon.”

“Then what’s with your rendezvous with Lambert? You even went to the hospital together? Why didn’t you get me to go with you if you weren’t feeling well?” He finally couldn’t stop his jealousy from showing.

It was only then that a lightbulb went off for Ellen. She was equally taken aback as well. “H- How did you know that Lambert and I went to the hospital?”

He didn’t answer her question as he muttered, “I want an explanation.”

“I can explain! Lambert and I did go to the hospital together, but that was only because her was injured when he helped me. I accompanied him to the hospital to get him patched up.” “Help you? Did something happen to you?”

Jared asked with a frown. His concern for her was stronger than his jealousy. Ellen tried her best to organize her words before answering him. “So, what happened was, I went to my uncle’s birthday banquet. I left at about 1.00PM, which was also when I received a call from Lambert. The call went on for not even a minute when a robber took my phone.

I chased the thief all the way to an exit at the park, and that was when I suddenly met Lambert. He snatched my phone back for me and was hurt by the robber in the process. We went to the hospital after that.”

Jared, who was quick on the uptake, immediately took note of the main point. “Why does he have your number? When did you give it to him?”

“No, I didn’t. My cousin was the one who gave it to him without my permission,’ she blurted out an explanation. “My cousin is the reason all of this happened. She has Lambert’s number and she made him think that I wanted to know him. H-He called me because of that.”

“Then how could he have coincidentally appeared on the very road you were chasing after the robber?” Jared asked again.

Ellen was sitting on the couch when she solemnly explained like never before. “I asked him about this too. He said that he called my cousin and found out that I was in this park. He happened to be nearby anyway, so he came over.

And yes, it really was a coincidence that he bumped into the robber. He took my phone back for me, but he got hurt in return. Please believe me. Lambert and I really met by chance. If it wasn’t for him, I could have been hurt event if I caught up with the robber. I am grateful for him.”

Jared was still upset even after hearing all that.. He was skeptical to believe that such. coincidences were possible.

“Fine. I want you to give me your answer now. Will you be my girlfriend?” he demanded. He would never have peace of mind if he was not sure about his position in her heart. “Huh?” the woman choked.

“What’s the matter? Are you going to reject me and be with Lambert?” Sure enough, Jared was consumed by his jealousy. His mood only took a turn for the worse when he heard Ellen’s surprised tone.

My Baby's Daddy chapter 1900--“No, no. That’s not what I mean, Ellen quickly explained. “Then what do you mean? Is it so hard to say yes to being my girlfriend?” “That’s not it either…” She blinked. I haven’t actually given it a thought.

“I’m counting down from ten. Make your decision!” After saying that, the man at the other end of the call slumped against his couch. His dark eyebrows were furrowed as he solemnly began to count. “Ten, nine, eight-

Left dumbfounded, Ellen couldn’t think at all. due to his words. She couldn’t think about anything else when he was threateningly counting the numbers. “Seven, six, five-”

“Alright, alright!” She cut him off. “I’ll be your girlfriend, so please stop counting!” Her head felt like it was about to burst from the pressure.

“So, you are agreeing because I’m forcing you, huh? You’re not agreeing willingly!” The man suddenly sounded grumpy again. Ellen had to take a moment before she softened her tone. “No… I’m saying this out of my own free will.”

“Delete Lambert’s number,’ a certain man

demanded. “Don’t take any more of his calls.”

“Alright, I’ll delete it.” She was as docile as a lamb.

“You are not allowed to like anyone but me from now on.” Jared teased her even more when he saw how obedient she was.

Ellen had to hold her laughter in. She thought that domineering dialogues like this only existed in novels, but there was a real man who was as childish and forceful as fictional characters!

However, she knew that it was indeed because of what happened between her and Lambert today that made Jared jealous. And so, she cooperatively answered him, “Alright, I promise.” ‘Let’s have dinner together later.”

“Tonight?” she absentmindedly repeated. “You’re not allowed to say no.” The man was too  jealous for his own good. “Sure, let’s have dinner together.” Ellen didn’t refuse because she didn’t know what she wanted to eat tonight.

Seeing how obedient she was, Jared couldn’t bear bullying her anymore. He wanted to hear her confess her feelings on the phone, but he soon decided it would be more meaningful if she said it to his face tonight. “Mhm. I’m hanging up.”

After the man finished speaking, he made a call to his assistant, Stanley. “Get rid of all the gossip about Ellen and Lambert on the Internet.” He gave a straightforward order.

“Yes, sir.” At the same time, after Selena drove home, she sat on the couch with her bag and started to check the scandal online. However, the page returned to the homepage when she clicked on the link again. The entire page regarding the scandal couldn’t be found anymore..

“What’s going on?” She stubbornly continued to type in Lambert’s name on the search entry, but only some news on his participation in some activities appeared. The news about him and Ellen had disappeared.

She quickly called her friend and asked if she could find it.

“You’re right! I can’t find it! Did they take it down?” Her friend on the other end of the call happened to have contact with the media, so she suggested, “I’ll ask around for you! I have a close friend there.”

“Quickly, then. Find out what’s going on.” Selena really wanted to know. She was worried that Jared hadn’t seen it yet. This could be the best evidence that could break Ellen and Jared’s relationship.

Her friend called her back not long after.”The staff there said that the news was taken down. Someone also warned them to watch out.” “What? Who was it?”

“My friend didn’t tell me, but she said that any scandals about Ellen are not allowed to be reported in the future, or the media company will be sued. My friend also said that even their boss was trembling in fear. Can you imagine how scary the person who warned them is?”

Selena’s eyes immediately went wide when she heard that. Did Jared take care of it? Lambert couldn’t have been the one who did it, and it’s not like Ellen is capable of doing something like this. After giving it some thought, she decided to shamelessly call Lambert.

“Hello?” Lambert’s magnetic voice rang out. ‘Hello, Mr. Orey. I came across news about you and Ellen this afternoon, but I can’t seem to find it now. Did you have it taken down?”
