“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!

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 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.

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.”
