My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1257
Silas 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 relationship 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 to comfort him after all that he went through. “Okay!” Ren
nodded. Ruka was being a lot sweeter than usual.
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 camouflage, she called
out at once, “Richard…
The hesitance as she trailed off caught both men’s attention. Richard glanced 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

Ruka blushed and nodded. “Okay.”
“Have you had dinner yet? Sit with us,” Ren said to Richard. Richard glanced at his watch before
nodding. “Sure. I’ll stay for dinner.”
The two men soon proceeded to the study for a discussion. Richard had come 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 the last 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. I 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
blackmail 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 plan. 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.”
“I promised Angela that I 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 Angela 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!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhat 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 sounds coming from downstairs,
which sounded like….
Is that Mrs. Husson? Did she come 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 glare 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.
