Night of Destiny ( Anastasia Tillman ) novel Chapter 1183

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 occasion.”

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.

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.
