My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1183
Ruka dreamed of him that night with lewd images that she could not recall without embarrassment and
slept in the following day. Claire let her off the hook because it was the holidays.
Meanwhile, Claire received a call from Scarlet that afternoon to inform her that she and her husband
had just returned to the country. Then, Scarlet invited Claire and her family to the Husson Residence
for a meal.
Claire was excited to see her old friend and immediately accepted the invitation. Ruka nearly choked
on her water when she brought this up during lunch. Ruka could not believe they were actually going to
the Husson Residence, which had taken on new meaning now that she was seeing Ren romantically-in
secret, no less.
Claire asserted solemnly, “Ruka, we’re going shopping later. I need to get a new outfit for the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtoccasion.”
She nodded and said, “Okay.”
Claire and Scarlet were very close because she had saved her life while she was studying abroad. At
the time, the ruffians smashed Scarlet’s car window and nearly robbed and assaulted her.
In the end, it was Claire who came to the rescue. She charged into danger with nothing but a Swiss
army knife. She drove away those ruffians, thereby sparing Scarlet from potentially fatal consequences.
Scarlet and Claire had been as close as sisters ever since that incident. Somewhere along the way,
Robert and Walter became friends as well. The Hussons had always been grateful to Vanya for saving
Scarlet’s life back in the day. Consequently, none objected when Scarlet offered to take Ruka as her
goddaughter.
Ruka texted Ren that she would be at the Husson Residence the next day while she and Claire were
out shopping.
‘Yeah, I heard,’ Ren replied.
Ruka was excited and nervous at the same time. During her previous visits to the Husson Residence,
she maintained a respectful distance from Harold, whom she found intimidating. Still, Charlotte was
fond of her and often acted as a mother figure to her. However, Ruka never anticipated that she would
develop feelings for their son.
Charlotte’s gifts arrived later that evening, including a designer jacket for Ruka. It had become
customary for them to send Ruka holiday gifts, which proved their affection for the girl.
Meanwhile, in the penthouse of one of the most prestigious high-rise buildings uptown, a slender
silhouette dressed in a silk negligée stood before the glass wall and gazed out at the night scene
below. She was holding a glass of wine, but she anxiously checked the time instead of admiring the
cityscape.
Her long hair cascaded in luscious waves over her shoulders with the softness and transparency of her
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmfeatures gave her an endearing appearance. Nevertheless, since she assumed her mother’s position,
she exuded an authority that demanded respect.
While she was accustomed to navigating the challenges of her professional life, at home, she just
wanted to be pampered by her husband. The three days since Richard had left for outstation for
mission handover proceedings had been excruciatingly painful for the newlyweds.
Although they were legally registered as husband and wife, they agreed that their wedding reception
would take place in the second half. This was due the numerous responsibilities they had to attend to
during the first half of the year.
Angela glanced at the time and felt her impatience intensify. She glanced over her shoulder at the
simple welcome home arrangement she had just created.
There was a bouquet of fresh flowers, a bottle of fine red wine, and several scented candles lit and
flickering in the dim apartment. Indeed, this was the ideal and romantic setting for her husband to
return home. As for the gift, she believed she was the best gift she could give him.
