My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1937
Night of Destiny
Chapter 1937
When Corey heard that, he immediately ran inside the living room. âEllenâs injured and requires ample
rest, so she has decided to stay at my place for a couple of days. Mr. Presgrave, please leave,â
Lambert said with his arms crossed.
âSheâs my girlfriend. Iâll take care of her,â Jared retorted coldly. He did not need anyone else to take
care of his girlfriend.
In the meantime, Corey patted Ellenâs cheek, which surprised her so much that her eyes widened in
shock. Then, he quickly shushed her. âYouâre Miss Reiss, right? Somethingâs gone wrong, and
someone came to find you.â
âWho?â âItâs Mr. Presgrave. Heâs having a face-off with Lambert outside!â
Ellen was stunned as she did not expect Jared would find her hideout. She then stood up while
supporting herself on the couch and left the living room. In the meantime, Corey, being an avid drama-
watcher, followed behind her for some gossip.
Showing herself at the door, she was hit by the afternoon sun and was dazed for a while before using
her hand to block the sunlight. âEllen,â Jared exclaimed in surprise as he felt relieved to see her in one
piece.
At the same time, Lambert turned around to look at her. The sunlight shining on her made her look frail,
and her long black hair was tackled by the breeze, revealing her pale face. Overall, she resembled a
shaky wisp of smoke that would disappear at any moment.
Instantly, her appearance evoked distress from the two men. âEllen, I came to pick you up.â Jaredâs
tone was exceptionally gentle.
She merely glanced at him and shook her head but could not hold back her emotion once again,
shocking the men as tears began streaming down her face. It was then that Lambert became more
certain that Jared had hurt her in some way for her to be so emotionally hurt.
When she looked up at them with teary eyes, she looked pitiful yet resilient. âIâm not leaving with you,
nor am I coming back to you. Just leave!â She made it clear to Jared while standing beside Lambert.
Within seconds, the contrast in mood became evident between the two men. One was hurt while one
was surprised.
âDonât you see, Mr. Presgrave? Ellen is willing to stay with me.â Lambert gave Jared a provocative
stare. âNo, you must leave with me.â There was no way Jared was willing to let Ellen stay with Lambert.
Ellen shook her head again. Since she had planned to stay at Lambertâs place for only a couple of
days, all she wanted from then on was some tranquillity. âIâm not leaving with you,â she replied
determinedly.
âFine. If youâre not, Iâll stay.â Jared was parroting her move. However, Lambert was unhappy about that.
âHey, Mr. Presgrave. This is my home, not a motel.â
âIâll be staying in the car. If you dare to touch a strand of her hair, Iâll beat you up.â Jared turned around
and left the doorway after leaving his remark. Indeed, he was dead set on spending the night inside his
car outside of Lambertâs house.
âIs he nuts?â The frustrated Lambert then turned to Ellen and asked, âWhat happened between you
two?â
Not wanting to talk about it, she looked at him gratefully. âMr. Orey, Iâm sorry to trouble you. Iâll leave
after a moment.â
âWait. You can rest assured that I donât find you troublesome, so please stay.â He was joyous that she
declared her desire to stay. Also, he felt ecstatic in the face of a furious Jared.
Looking at the hungry and lethargic-looking woman, Lambert immediately ordered some food from a
restaurant nearby and had it delivered to his doorstep. His assumption was spot on as she indeed bore
an empty stomach until night came.
By the time she finished her meal, Corey had left, and she was led to a guest room on the third floor.
âNo one has stayed in this room before, so you can rest assured. Iâll protect you,â said Lambert.
âMr. Orey, Iâm sorry for troubling you.â Ellen was apologetic toward the kind man.
âItâs fine. Corey was the one who hit you with his car. Didnât you already forgive him? Why donât you
see this as me making up on his behalf? Itâs not a big deal, really.â He assured her, sincerely wanting to
take care of her.
Nodding, she closed the door and came to the balcony that so happened to oversee the front.
entrance. The car glowed under the dark sky, prompting her to wonder if Jared truly intended to stay
the night in his vehicle.
