Semua Bab My BEAST HUSBAND: Bab 221 - Bab 230

"Ugh! Wait."Ruby stopped walking and sat back down, trying to catch her breath. Everything she was wearing right now was her own choice, tailored to her size, but somehow it all felt wrong—tight and uncomfortable.Ruby had hoped she would feel calm and be fine because there was nothing weighing on her heart right now, and this situation was very different from her marriage as Liz. But she still felt nauseous and terribly nervous as the day arrived."This isn’t even the first time," Ruby sighed, taking a deep breath.The small amount of food she had managed to eat while getting her makeup done now felt stuck in her throat.This wasn’t Ruby’s first time getting married—though it was the first time using her real name, so she shouldn’t be this nervous. Ruby rubbed her chest to calm her racing heart. She was really worried about messing up the wedding."Tea! How about some tea?" Lori suggested patting Tita on

“This is delicious!”AJ got exactly what Ed promised: a large chocolate fountain. Various fruits and marshmallows of different shapes surrounded it, already skewered and ready to be dipped into the thick, fragrant, sweet liquid.“Yes, but don’t bring it near your mother!” Lori sternly warned, knowing that a drop of chocolate could stain Ruby’s dress.“Yeah... yeah...” AJ mumbled and pouted, but he made sure not to approach his mother when he had chocolate after that.Lori was AJ’s weakness. She spoiled him but was also very strict when scolding him. She wasn’t afraid to make AJ cry if he was in the wrong.Ruby remembered this repeatedly and planned to invite Lori over often in the future so that AJ would learn not to be too spoiled.“Thank you,” Ruby whispered as Lori sat back down beside her.“I don’t.” Ed, who was beside Ruby, muttered. He coul

"Don't." Ed reached for Ruby's phone, which was already raised in front of her face, ready to make a video call as soon as they arrived at the hotel."Just for a moment," Ruby pleaded."You were the one in a hurry to leave the house, Ruby. We just got here, and you already want to call him?" Ed was slightly amused.Ruby had been excited to leave, but during their trip—a roughly three-hour flight—her excitement dwindled and turned into worry."What if AJ throws a fit? This is different from before. We've never left him alone with someone else and stayed overnight somewhere else." The farther away she got from AJ, the more uncertain Ruby became.They were in Tulum, on the eastern coast of Mexico—the opposite side from Puerto Vallarta. It wasn’t too far because Ed had chosen a place within reach, just in case they suddenly needed to return because of AJ."Otz didn't report anything, and when I asked, he said everything w

"I don't want to." AJ grabbed the car door, gripping it tightly. He wouldn’t let Ruby open it."AJ, you're going to be late." Ruby didn’t scold him; she was already at the point of pleading. After battling with AJ earlier this morning, Ruby was exhausted. AJ had refused to go to school, which made no sense since he shouldn't have had a reason to hate anyone yet. It was his first day of school."AJ, we've been talking about this for a week. You have to go back to school. This isn't up for discussion. You must go." Ruby emphasized, trying to push the door on AJ’s side, but it wouldn't budge."Ed!" Ruby called out, asking Ed to unlock the front door because AJ had locked it again."Do you want me to walk you inside?" Ed offered a more peaceful approach, not wanting to force AJ to go in alone."Okay." AJ mumbled in agreement, still reluctant, but better than before. Ruby wasn’t entirely pleased. Normally, AJ didn’t need to

"Where did she go?" Mia murmured as she re-entered the house with Mayte. Ruby was nowhere to be seen."Let's just go inside." Mia pulled Mayte along, guiding her to the table that Tita had prepared. It was filled with tea and cakes."I'm glad you could come today," Mia said."Thank you for the invitation." Mayte politely sat down and took the cup of tea meant for her."I'm really sorry. I didn't know Ed would remarry so quickly." Mia shook her head, looking regretful. Mayte just gave a strained smile.It was Mia who informed Mayte about Ed's wedding cancellation as soon as she heard the news. Although the details weren't complete yet, since Ed hadn't mentioned getting remarried, Mia had already given Mayte hope, only to crush it later with the news of the wedding.It took Mayte more than a month to finally accept Mia's invitation. She had been too shaken, but once again, Mia had nurtured her hopes."The important thing is that you're
