My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1258
“What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell. Ruka?” Charlotte exclaimed in shock. Ren cast a worried look at her too. Did she get a cold from keeping the air-conditioning on at a low temperature last night?
Harold was staring in concern as well. Ruka exhaled in relief and shook her head shyly. “No, I’m fine. I’ve just been getting the urge to vomit for the past two days.”
When Charlotte heard this, the wheels in her head started spinning and she cried out excitedly, “Could it be that you’re pregnant?”
Harold’s eyes lit up as well. Was he going to have a grandchild so soon?
Ren secretly sighed in relief, and at the same time, his lips curved into a smile. Ruka’s acting was pretty good.
Ruka threw caution to the wind and chose to do whatever it took to make Harold happy. She did not want Harold to continue feeling upset with Ren over
this, so the news of a grandchild would surely get rid of all his anger.
She quickly placed her hand on her belly and said in amazement, “I think so, judging by the timing.”
Charlotte was overjoyed. She turned to Harold and said, “Look! Ruka’s pregnant. We’ll have a grandchild before the year ends.”
Harold’s stern expression had made way for a smile too. “It’s all thanks to Ruka, though it’ll be hard on her.”
“I don’t mind. I want to have a child with Ren as soon as possible too.” Ruka shook her head and looked at Ren. She winked at him in secret to warn him not to expose her.
“Come, come. Let’s not stand around. Take a seat! We must let Scarlet and the others know about this.” Charlotte was jumping out of her seat to inform the others of the glorious news.
Ruka sat down beside Ren. She felt a pair of eyes staring pointedly at her. Her cheeks felt a little hot, but perhaps it was because of her lie.
The old couple left after having lunch, but just before they headed off, Harold turned to Ren and said, “Make sure you treat Ruka well.”
It was a sign that he was no longer upset about their relationship. Ren nodded and promised, “I will.”
“Ren, since Ruka is pregnant, you need to watch out, okay?” Charlotte hinted that Ren would need to exercise more self control over the next few months.
Ren’s cheeks turned a little pink. He nodded uncomfortably and said, “I know, Mom. Go ahead and get in the car!” After seeing the car pull out of the driveway, Ruka finally sighed in relief and patted her chest. “Thank goodness they didn’t see through me.”
However, Ren tousled her hair before flicking her on the forehead. “Ruka, is this something you should be lying about?” he chided, though his voice was full of affection.
“I only did it for your sake! So that your father won’t be so angry and upset with you for getting into a relationship with me.” Ruka pouted and stared at him. aggrievedly. “Aunt Scarlet told me all about it. Did you think you could hide this from me?”
Ren had no answer for that. It was hard to keep a secret from Ruka. He wrapped his arm around her shoulder and asked, “Worried about me?”
“What do you think? Even Dr. Silas came over. Did your wound split again?” Ruka gave him a light punch.
Ren grabbed her hand and pulled her into the “It’s fine. I’ll be back to normal soon. There’s something even more urgent right now.”
“What?”
