Semua Bab Reclaiming His Runaway Baby Mama: Bab 261 - Bab 270

Just as Layson finished his call, Luke walked into the café, his face dark as ink.He walked up to Layson, looked at him silently for a few seconds, his eyes filled with both clarity and a chilling calm. Then he bent down and whispered something to Kennedy. She continued to stare at Layson in disbelief, seemingly unable to accept how indifferent he was.Layson waited for the bill, then casually picked up his phone and spoke flatly to Luke, who was still bent over: “I’ve got a flight this afternoon. If there's nothing else, don’t bother looking for me again.”With that, he took long strides and left the café without so much as another glance at them.Luke helped Kennedy up. The once perfectly made-up woman now had no more tears in her eyes—just a sharp coldness honed by years in the business world. She quickly masked her emotions and steadied herself.“We should head back.”Her supporting hand hesitated for a moment. Kennedy glanced at him. “You know we’ve been out too long. They’re go

When Zach walked in, Cici only had time to marvel at one thing: every time she was with Adela, the chances of bumping into her idol seemed to skyrocket to a hundred percent…Adela and Cici sat on one side, while Gina was on the other. Zach walked in and, naturally, sat beside Gina.He casually waved for the server and ordered a cup of coffee. Gina looked at him, a little surprised.“Doesn’t your band have a performance this afternoon? Why are you here?”Zach leaned back in his chair, lazy and relaxed. His face was strikingly handsome, his eyes a bit playful. “Our keyboard player caught a cold. The show’s off.”“Oh please, your band’s schedule is way too casual—play when you want, cancel when you don’t.” Gina rolled her eyes. She had zero interest in underground rock. She’d only gone to support Zach a few times, and to her, the whole thing felt like child’s play.Zach took a sip of coffee and propped his chin in his hand, his eyes gleaming with interest. “Adela doesn’t look too surpris

Adela pushed open the bedroom door and walked straight into the walk-in closet. She grabbed a set of loungewear, ready to change in the bathroom. Sure, she could change right here, but all of Layson’s clothes were in the closet—it was best not to run into him if she could help it.As she turned around, she walked straight into his chest.The faint, cool scent on his body hit her. Before she could even speak, his scorching kiss landed fast and fierce. Her back pressed against the closet wall before she even realized what was happening.This kiss wasn’t like the usual sweet, doting ones. It was full of dominance and hunger—completely unyielding. His tongue chased hers with such intensity, she had nowhere to escape. Her heart fluttered in her chest, and she instinctively tilted her head back, giving in to his relentless pursuit.The soft, intimate sounds filled the closet. Adela felt like a small boat in the middle of the sea, rocking endlessly with no idea where she was headed.A knock

As Adela walked closer, she furrowed her brows and asked, “If I’m not mistaken, your room is supposed to be on the second floor, isn’t it?”Marah let out a sarcastic chuckle. “I had a question for Layson. What, now that he has a girlfriend, I’m not even allowed to talk to him? Or are you just afraid I’ll steal him from you?”She even tossed her hair dramatically as she spoke. Adela rolled her eyes, clearly not interested in engaging with her over such nonsense.“Fine. You want to ask something? I’ll knock on the door for you,” she said flatly and stepped forward.Marah was caught off guard and quickly yanked Adela’s slender arm, shoving her back.She wasn’t as strong as she thought—Adela only stumbled half a step. But the rudeness sparked real anger in her chest.Before she could speak, Marah barked, “That room you just came out of—isn’t that one of the empty ones?”Though she rarely came up to the third floor, she knew which rooms were vacant.Fourteen years ago, when she first moved

Normally, when Zach looked at people, he always wore a casual, smiling expression, a smile that carried a hint of playfulness and distance. He seemed easygoing, but there was a natural aloofness about him that made people instinctively avoid staring too long.Adela and Cici quickly looked away, exchanging helpless glances.She had just texted him, saying she was working overtime.And now she was here, leisurely shopping at Times Plaza.Awkward.And even worse — getting caught lying on the spot.Zach casually placed his sunglasses right between him and Cici, and naturally slid into the seat next to her. Adela stared, utterly speechless.She was so shocked that her voice even trembled slightly. "Zach, you're not going to find another table?"Dear God, someone please come and drag this man away! Adela worried that Cici might even forget how to breathe.Zach's eyes glimmered with amusement. "What, am I not welcome? I spotted you two from outside and came over specially to dine with these
