My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1257


    Ss left after lunch and Ruka held Ren’s arm as they went upstairs to rest. Ren looked perfectly normal despite taking a


    beating, and he was doing his best to keep it from her. Thus, she felt like he was being a stubborn child right now.


    It seemed as if age no longer came between them. He loved her and she loved him. They were equals in the rtionship and


    equals in love.


    “I''ll stay with you for a while.” Ruka dragged Ren back to his bedroom. For the past few days, she had stayed away to ensure


    that she did not disrupt his recovery process in any way, even though she wanted to sleep in his arms each night.


    Today was an exception as she wanted tofort him after all that he went through. “Okay!” Ren nodded. Ruka was being a lot


    sweeter than usual.Copyright by N?v/elDrama.Org.


    It was making his yearning for her grow, but thanks to his wound being aggravated time and time again, his frustration kept


    growing too.


    In the evening, a guest arrived-Richard. When Ruka saw him enter dressed in camouge, she called out at once, “Richard...


    The hesitance as she trailed off caught both men’s attention. Richard nced at Ren, who cleared his throat and said, “Ruka,


    you don’t need to be so formal with him. You can even call him Richie if you like!”


    Ruka blushed and nodded. “Okay.”


    “Have you had dinner yet? Sit with us,” Ren said to Richard. Richard nced at his watch before nodding. “Sure. I''ll stay for


    dinner.”


    The two men soon proceeded to the study for a discussion. Richard hade over for a reason.


    “Uncle Ren, we’ve determined that the mastermind is Orson Grady, but he covers his tracks very well. All of those who failed in


    carrying out his tasks end up disappearing without a trace.”


    Ren’s eyes glinted coldly. Orson had lost to him during thest elections by just a few hundred votes. It was evident that Orson


    was going all out this time.


    “Do you have a way to lure him out?”


    “One. We want to use Ruka’s identity as bait.” “I won''t allow Ruka to be put in any danger, Ren refused right away.


    Richard smirked. “I wouldn’t put Ruka at risk either. | just want to use her identity and send one of my people disguised as her.”


    Ren narrowed his eyes. “How confident are you?”


    “Since the assassination failed, their next target would be Ruka. They will want to use Ruka as ckmail to get you to renounce


    your candidacy for the elections. The elections are in two months, so they''ll definitely act soon.” Richard spoke with certainty.


    Ren nodded. His eyes were cold as he said, “Alright. We''ll proceed with your n. Guys like Orson Grady should be


    exterminated.”


    “How’s your injury, Uncle Ren?” Richard voiced his concern. “It’s fine. I''ll be back to normal in a few days,” Ren assured him.


    Richard patted Ren’s arm. “Don’t worry! I''ll be a part of your security detail from now on. This won’t happen again.”


    “I''ll rest at ease knowing that you''re here.”


    “| promised Ang that | would stay in the country and wouldn’t go far. Richard did not regret giving up his career and position


    for the sake of love. He did it willingly. Furthermore, his job now was to keep his family safe, which was something meaningful as


    well.


    Richard left after dinner. He had been traveling around the past few days and had not seen Ang for a while now, so now that


    he finally had some free time. he was eager to rush home and see her.


    Ordinarily, Ren would ask Ruka to sleep in his room at night, but tonight, he was unusually self-aware and did not ask her to


    come with him to bed.


    It was Ruka who could not fall asleep. Her heart panged each time she recalled how he had been beaten, and it was all because


    of her too!


    What could she do for him? She decided that if she did see Harold, she had to let him know just how much she loved Ren and


    that nothing could break them apart.


    The next morning, when Ruka came out of the bedroom, she heard soundsing from downstairs, which sounded like....


    Is that Mrs. Husson? Did shee here?


    Ruka was excited. She rushed down the stairs at once, but when she saw the old couple who were sitting on the couch, her


    heart trembled slightly. She did not expect to see Harold here either.


    Ren was seated opposite them. It looked like Charlotte and Harold had only just. arrived and the three of them were discussing


    something.


    “You''re up, Ruka? Come and take a seat. Charlotte waved her over happily.


    Harold was still a little miffed as he threw a re at Ren. He was satisfied with Ren in every way, except for his love life. Never in


    his wildest dreams would he have thought that Ren would fall in love with the young woman his sister raised.


    Ruka’s mind raced as she stood in front of the old couple. All of a sudden, she covered her mouth with her hand and acted as if


    she was about to throw up. She rushed to the nearby trashcan and pretended to vomit.
