RUBY

"If you and Uncle Wyatt are good now, that means he can be my daddy, can't he, Mommy?"

I was stunned at my son's question. He specifically used 'daddy' in his words, meaning he understood how Wyatt stood in our life. Wyatt wasn't merely an uncle to him.

I caressed his cheek with my thumb. "Do you want him to be your daddy, hm?" This should have eased my way to explain our future life with Wyatt to him. Still, I found myself surprised at it.

Austin bobbed his head, not only a nod. He seemed enthutiastic to this idea. "Uncle Wyatt said he could be my daddy if I helped him win your heart, Mommy."

So this was the reason. Turned out, Wyatt had planted the idea from long ago. "He did?"

"Yes."

"And you followed his words?"

"Yes, Mommy."

"Why?"

Okay. I understood he craved for a father in his life. But why did he choose Wyatt out of people?

Austin hummed, thinking before coming up with an unexpected reply a moment later. "He cares for you, Mommy. And he promised to make you happy and me,

    WYATT[Austin and I are in the company. We're in the lobby.]I was initially confused getting such a message. Did I misread it? Which company did she mean? And most importantly, was the sender really Ruby?But, I didn't misread her text, and it was indeed from Ruby, my love. So, did it mean she was here?I shifted my attention from the presentation ahead--we were in the middle of a meeting--to Ron, who seemed to feel my need as he turned toward me as well. So I motioned with my head to get closer. "Check if Ruby and Austin are in the lobby." I said barely whispering as not to disturb the meeting.Ron nodded and quickly left his spot. And in less than five minutes, he returned with a confirmation. "A woman named Ruby with a boy came to the receptionist and asked for you. So I told her to grant them access."My mood, which had been better since I read her message, lit up more. It seemed that this dull meeting room didn't matter anymore because I knew Ruby and Austin would greet me as so

    RUBYI would admit something. When I took Laura's invitation, the possibility she would invite more people didn't cross my mind. I was too happy for her that all I could think was to be part of the party and celebrate it.Only when we accidentally met Meredith and she told that she would also attend to Laura's party did I realize there could be more. So I had no other choices except to prepare myself to meet and introduce our little family to them, which meant more people would learn about my and Austin's existence in Logan's family.It was a matter of time, though. Sooner or later I would face them."There. Two. One."My mind snapped to the present at the excitement emitting from Kevin and Laura's guests. They were counting for the important show. Revealing the gender.There was a big cake--not as big as a wedding cake--which contained the secret and Kevin and Laura were slicing it. Meanwhile, the guests were anticipating for the answer. What could it be? A boy or a girl?Soon, all t

    WYATT"Yes. We're a couple, but not yet married."I would admit that I was startled to hear Ruby's words in replying Meredith at our unexpected encounter. She said it, preceeding me to take an initiative, even without we discussed such a situation before. It happened suddenly, so did her reaction.And what amazed me mere was she and Meredith carried on with their conversation, including introducting Austin to her, of course, as our son. Ruby and I, even though she didn't state it clearly since Austin was among us.Therefore, on the night after I sent Austin to sleep, I made an inquiry about it."You surprised me, love." I uttered as soon as her figure appeared from the bathroom.Ruby's brows furrowed as she walked to the bed. "What do you mean?""Meredith." I mentioned the name, whom she acknowledged immediately. "I didn't expect our encounter, especially seeing you talk to her casually."She took the space beside me, tucking herself under the blanket. "I also didn't expect to meet he

    RUBYWyatt insisted to buy me a new dress for the party. It was for us, actually, since he wanted us to come in sync. And us meant Wyatt, Austin, and me.Of course, we would come in full set.Therefore, he drove us to the mall the next afternoon, visiting a well-known boutique.I opened the curtain after I was done looking at reflection. It was the second dress and seemed better on me than the previous one. So I had a confidence to face the people waiting for me outside.Wyatt and Austin.Who else?"What do you think?" I swirled around to give him a better view. Well, it came out automatically as if it was a template whenever I was trying on new clothes.Wyatt was having conversating with our son when I stole his attention. His stare bore into me like scanning me inside out, and he stayed like that for half a minute until Austin beat him to answer my question."You look beautiful, Mommy." And he also showed it through his expression. His clear blue eyes was fixated on me."Yes. You're

    WYATTI hurried my steps out of the elevator as soon as the door opened, taking a right turn and arriving at my office in less than a minute."Dad." I called Dad, brows furrowing in confusion. I clearly didn't expect him to appear in my office, even though he often came to visit. But I had predicted it would be someone else. "I thought Ron mentioned someone else, not you." I glanced at my assistant, who was also present here and not accompanying me in the meeting.I had sent him to my office after he got a report from receptionist that I had a guest. So we decided to meet him and I carried on with the meeting.However, my guest should be..."You mean Alex?" Dad responded, leaning his back on the sofa before looking at me. "We had a pretty interesting discussion. But he's no longer here."Yes. My guest should have been Alex Foster, not Dad. That was why I was surprised to see him here."When you arrived, Dad?" I asked, legs swaying to the sofa across Dad."Before Alex came in."I copie
