Semua Bab My BEAST HUSBAND: Bab 171 - Bab 180

Ed lowered his cup, twirling his finger on the rim. He chose his words carefully, not wanting to admit his silly thoughts."I used to only like coffee. It was bitter, sour, and fragrant, and I thought it was enough. However, someone made tea for me. I wasn't interested, but I tried it, and it turned out—it wasn't bad. A calmer fragrance, a milder bitterness... I liked it too."After hearing all that explanation, Ruby couldn't understand why Ed would always mention tea while they were together."You... tea is you. You are like tea! That's why I chose tea leaves for that phone!" Ed finally explained the situation clearly, as Ruby was still unable to understand."Oh... Ooo... I see." Ruby nodded, wondering why Ed had to explain it in such a roundabout way. He could have just said it simply.Ruby's cheeks slowly turned red. That answer made her blush. The tea, which had been a mystery, turned out to be simple. However, it didn't leave a simple fe

"How about you live in New York?" Ruby asked again. She was brave, as Ed had not shown any anger since earlier.There was laughter, but only for a moment. Ed fell silent after realizing Ruby was not joking."Oh, you're serious?" Ed thought Ruby was making a joke."Yes." Ruby knew the chance of Ed agreeing was only a fraction of a percent, but it was worth a try."You know who the Rosas are, right?" Ed wanted to make sure. If Ruby didn't understand, he would provide clarification."Yes. I know."Ruby knew why Ed was called ‘Don’ and not ‘Señor’ like the others. The title Don was very rarely used because it referred to nobility. The title was special because Ed had power that 'normal' people did not have."I can't leave them. They are my family. I have to be there."It was the exact answer Ruby had imagined, and she knew it would be nearly impossible to change. The Rosas family had been there for decades; she knew Ed's departure would not be simple."What makes you hesitate?" Ed asked.

"Really!" Otiz shook his head convincingly.Ed clicked his tongue and glanced at Ruby, who was already pale. It was clear that Ruby had no idea how to respond. Ed himself didn't know how to explain, but he didn't avoid the situation.Ed gently pulled AJ aside so he wasn't blocking the way, then squatted down in front of him."When did you hear this?" Ed asked."Yesterday. Tita was talking to Otiz." AJ pointed with full certainty.Ed glanced again, and this time Otiz looked down in regret. He remembered now. He had indeed chatted with Tita, but he didn't expect AJ to understand and overhear. They were quite a distance away, and the conversation should have been too complicated for AJ to follow."Let's go to the triceratops section first." Ed held AJ's hand, trying to divert his attention. He hoped that AJ would forget later."What did you say?" As she followed Otiz, Ruby hissed."Tita asked if you two were going to get back toge

“RUBY!” Ed shouted as he burst through the already-open wooden gate.It was obvious Ruby had left, but where did she go? The area around the house was calm but not deserted. There were several visitors walking around, enjoying the lake at night. Ruby could have met anyone.Ed ran toward the crowd, hoping Ruby was drawn to the same thing. At the end of the road, there was a fountain that attracted visitors with its lights and myths. It was like a cheap version of the Trevi Fountain in Italy. Many visitors threw coins and made wishes.“Oh, thank goodness.” Ed sighed in relief when he saw Ruby standing in front of the fountain. Fortunately, she hadn’t gone too far.“Ruby… Don’t!” Ed shouted in panic as he saw Ruby suddenly step into the pool. Some people there also tried to stop her, but Ruby resisted.“I want to take that! It’s shining! It’s beautiful!” Ruby pointed to the pool. Visitors' coins reflected the lights that illuminated the pool.“Ruby! I’m sorry.” Ed grabbed Ruby’s wet body

"WOW! A boat!" AJ ran when he saw what Ed had surprised him with.A medium-sized white yacht with cream-colored sails unfurled. Of course, AJ immediately forgot any feelings that were bothering him.He approached Ed, who was waiting beside the sailboat."Is this yours?" AJ asked."No, I rented it. But if you like it, I'll buy it," Ed said. He had never felt the need to own a yacht, so he had never wanted to buy one."I love it!" AJ eagerly accepted the generous offer."No need if you're only going to use it occasionally," Ruby interjected, not about to allow such an extravagant request."But... but..." AJ started to pout. Ruby's rejection made him reluctantly step onto the gangplank connecting the dock to the boat.Ed glanced at Ruby, signaling that she would agree with his eyes."Expensive," Ruby whispered as she passed Ed. She was quite unaccustomed to fulfilling AJ's costly requests."It won't be wasted. We can use it in Puerto Vallarta," Ed reminded her, pointing out that his hous
