Filed To Story: Finding the Secret Daddy for My Baby Novel

Ruka stopped insisting. Inwardly, she even wanted to smile. Seeing that the man had cooked dinner for her, she curled her lips into a smile, saying, “Okay. I’ll call you Ren then, alright?”

When Ren saw how obedient she looked, his brow finally cleared. As he was in a good mood, he pulled out his chair and sat down next to her.

Ruka hurriedly handed him his fork and. spoon. After eating a few bites of the noodles, she asked him, “You kept sending me presents by post earlier. Why didn’t you tell me about it so that I can thank you for it?”

Ren was startled for a moment. Then, he figured that his assistant must’ve let it slip and told her about it. “Do you like the gifts?” he asked with a squint.

“Yeah, I do,” Ruka said before flashing the necklace she was wearing, “Look, I’m wearing it.”

Ren curled his lips into an attractive smile as a dimple appeared in one of his cheeks.

If he laughs heartily, his dimples will definitely be even more good-looking, thought Ruka as she looked forward to him laughing.

They then ate dinner in silence.

Ruka finished half of the soup since it was too yummy. Not only that, but she was stuffed after eating seven slices of the grilled steak. “Let me clear the table.” She hurriedly stood up to clear the table when Ren put down his fork and spoon.

Ren grabbed her hand that was holding the bowl to stop her. “Let me do it. You should go to sleep.”

Ruka’s heart jumped. Seeing the large hand that was holding her hand, she retracted her hand in a fluster. “I-I’m going back to my room, then.” As long as the atmosphere became somewhat romantic, she’d feel flustered and panicky. Not knowing what to do, she had no choice but to flee first.

Ren’s cell phone rang: he glanced at it before answering the phone. ‘Hello.” “Mr. Husson, I’ve found out that Miss Singed was indeed locked inside the library by someone.”

“Who is it?”

“It’s a female intern named Mia Murillo. She’s also the one who turned off the main switch, Elijah reported. Ren’s voice was frosty with a hint of anger. “Hand the evidence to the translation department and get rid of her.”

“Roger that.”

After hanging up the phone, Ren stood up and cleared the table as swiftly and neatly as the way he usually did everything else..

Ruka took a shower and did some reading in bed before falling asleep in exhaustion. In the midst of her sleep, she felt thirsty, for she had eaten too much of the steak just now.

She checked the time. Seeing that it was 1:12 AM, she got out of bed without bothering to change out of her pajamas. thinking that Ren must’ve gone to sleep at this hour. She opened the door and saw that the wall lights were on in the hallway outside. The light was dim with a touch of coziness. She went downstairs, found a glass, and went in the direction of the water dispenser before pouring a glass of warm water for herself and drinking from it. After finishing the glass of water, she headed toward the stairs.

Just as she was going up the stairs, the door to the innermost room on the left side of the hallway opened, and Ren stepped out in a black silk night robe.

Ruka was also heading in the same direction on her way back to her room. As soon as she turned a corner, she saw the man coming her way and was startled right away.

With that, the two ran into each other in the hallway.

Ruka watched in embarrassment as the man came toward her. The close-fitting silk night robe made him look tall and slender while showing the smooth outline of his figure. Moreover, the robe gaped open slightly, making his sharply outlined clavicle and his perfect-looking neck and shoulders faintly visible. At this very moment, he looked like an attractive and yet dangerous beast taking a leisurely stroll in its own territory.

Ruka never thought she’d run into Ren in the hallway at such a late hour. After biting her lip in panic for a moment, she stammered, “I-I went downstairs to get something to drink. I’m going back to my room now!” Then, she walked toward him.

The hallway was spacious, but it appeared narrow when she walked past him.

Suddenly, a large hand grabbed her wrist and pinned her against the wall with tremendous strength, holding up her left hand in a surrendering gesture. The man grabbed her wrist with one hand while putting the other on her shoulder. In an instant, they were only inches away from each other.

His gaze was fervent when it fell on her face. It was as if he had been troubled by his desire for a long time, so he didn’t even need to conceal it upon facing his prey.

Ruka’s heart shuddered under Ren’s stare. She looked up slightly, only to look into his eyes, which were as dark as the sea. They seemed to have a hint of self restraint and forbearance in them, but they also looked like a bomb that would explode anytime, causing her heartbeat to quicken in fear. She felt anxious and uneasy. She didn’t know what he wanted. to do, but she also had an idea what he was going to do.

Ren left his room because he couldn’t fall asleep. However, he never expected the young lady who had made him lose sleep to show up in front of him voluntarily.

Isn’t she letting herself fall prey to a predator? Doesn’t she know how dangerous it is to wander around in my house at midnight?

“It hurts…” Ruka couldn’t help but cry out aggrievedly as her hand hurt in his grasp.

Only then did Ren realize that he was still grabbing her wrist. He released his grip on it, but just when Ruka thought the man was going to let her off, he held her chin with his fingers. The next instant, he kissed her on the lips, as if nothing could stop him once he crossed the line he had drawn for himself.

“Mmm…” Ruka pushed him immediately as her first instinct was that they couldn’t do this. This is wrong. This is unreasonable.

However, the man’s body was as immovable as a mountain, and his lips were full of the minty aroma of wine. Only then did Ruka realize that he had drunk alcohol. This is even more dangerous. “Ren Husson…” She finally warned him by calling him by his full name.

Ren let go of her while panting slightly as his tall figure loomed over her like a shadow. His chest heaved up and down, and he stared at the lady in his arms with dark, fathomless eyes. He had been longing for this kiss for the entire night.. “What did you call me just now?” he asked in a husky voice with a seductive flicker in his eyes.

“Ren Husson.” Ruka bit her lip while avoiding his intense gaze.

“Great. I like it.” The man accepted it happily. Then, he whispered in her ear and warned in a husky voice, ‘Go back to your room and don’t come out again.”

Ruka looked up and saw the man’s eyes, which were so fathomless as though they were going to devour everything like a black hole. ‘I’ll move out tomorrow,” she said with integrity. Since he’d be so greatly affected if she stayed at his place, she might as well leave.

“You’re not allowed to leave,” the man ordered overbearingly. Everyone had a line that couldn’t be crossed, including Ruka. Moreover, she was a living person, so she’d also lose her temper upon being ordered around like this.

“What do you want me to do, then? If you really crave for women, there are lots of women who are willing to serve you. I think Miss Parfait will be more than happy to do that,” she replied in annoyance, though she didn’t know what had given her the courage to say this to him.

Ren took a step back. With his arms folded, he looked her up and down with at dangerous squint. “Do you think I’m such a casual man?”

“Why me, then?” Ruka couldn’t wrap her head around it. She went abroad at 16 years old and hadn’t come back for nearly 5 years since then. Since when did Ren fall in love with her?

Ren also wanted to ask himself the same question. Why her, of all people? But he’d been unable to find the answer to the question. After letting out a sigh, he replied in a husky voice, “Don’t worry, I won’t force you to do anything. Just stay here with peace of mind.”

With that, he was about to leave.

Ruka couldn’t help but say to him from behind, “Miss Parfait really likes you, so you can try to accept her.”

Ren froze before looking sideways slightly. “What about you?”

Ruka was lost for words for a moment. Then, in a moment of haste, she blurted out, “I don’t like someone who’s older than me.” As soon as she said that, she retracted these words inwardly. No, I didn’t mean to spurn him. I just want to use this excuse to refuse to let our relationship go deeper. If my parents know that he and I have crossed such a line, they’re gonna give me hell She grew up abroad, but she was an old fashioned lady at heart.
