I'll Come Along

“Are you sure?” Ed teased, tracing Ruby’s cheek with his fingertip. It was amusing to see her blush like that.
“Yes, I’m sure.” Her answer was increasingly unconvincing. Ruby bit her lip to steady her breathing.
“Okay.” Ed nodded and lowered his hand.
“Huh?” Ruby covered her mouth, as her disappointment had unintentionally slipped out. No words were necessary; that soft hiss wasn’t one of surprise, and Ed certainly understood.
“So, what should I do?” As he caressed Ruby's ear, Ed asked, pretending to seek guidance on what was already clear.
“I... don’t know.” Ruby squeezed the blanket covering a portion of her body and closed her eyes, grunting inwardly. Her body had suddenly become very sensitive. Ed had only touched her neck and ears, but her whole bod

"Yes, you handle it. I'll be back later." While turning the car's steering wheel, Ed ended the call with Otiz. Ruby looked on anxiously.She had hoped Otiz would call Ed with news of an urgent job that would prevent Ed from accompanying her, but no such luck. It was just a report.Ruby's hope, present even before they set off—that Ed wouldn't end up taking her—was dashed. They were already on their way to Esli's house."Are you okay? Why do you look so pale?"Ed, now focused on the road again, noticed the change in Ruby's complexion. She looked increasingly pale as they got further away."I'm just feeling nauseous. It's nothing." Ruby was, of course, carsick. Esli's house was far away."Nauseous? Did you eat something---"CKITT!Ed cut himself off and suddenly slammed on the brakes. Ruby was nearly thrown forward."Why... UGH!" Ruby, who had been holding back her nausea, felt it worsen due to the sudden stop.
My BEAST HUSBAND A Weird Disapointment
"I was careless." Ed murmured as Ruby finished and sat beside him, waiting for the test results.Ruby, who had just sent a message to Esli informing him that they would be late, glanced at Ed. She hesitated to speak but wanted to ensure her guess was correct."You don't want me to be pregnant." That was Ruby's guess, because it seemed most likely, given Ed's anger right after she mentioned feeling nauseous."Yes. I don't want it."Ruby turned away despite receiving a clear and definite answer that should have been correct. She didn't cry, but she didn't expect the pain that surfaced. Ruby wanted to ask why Ed didn't want it, but she was afraid of hearing the answer. She didn't want to really cry."Let's just hope the result is negative." Ruby responded just as coldly and flatly.Ruby simultaneously affirmed herself in her own heart. She also didn't want to be pregnant because it would be terrifying.Ruby couldn't imagine bearing a child when her name wasn't even Lizeth Ramos. She was
My BEAST HUSBAND What's The Plan?
"Finally, you’ve arrived." Esli greeted them with a mixture of concern and joy that felt just right.He knew exactly what had happened because Ruby had kept him updated, including Ed’s arrival. Esli wouldn’t have forgiven the surprise of Ed showing up if Ruby had kept silent."Are you alright? Nothing serious, right?" Esli reached for Ruby's hand, holding it, and then stroked her cheek, playing the role of a concerned father remarkably well.If Ruby hadn’t remembered that this man had once slapped and trapped her, she might have been moved and cried at this show of affection. She never experienced love from her father, who her mother said had died when she was young."I’m fine, Dad." Ruby smiled, managing to suppress the nausea that had nothing to do with motion sickness. She was disgusted by Esli.For the rest of the journey, Ruby hadn’t vomited anymore and felt better as soon as the car stopped and she could breathe in the fresh air around Esli’s vast garden. This was Ruby’s second
My BEAST HUSBAND I Don't Know You
"Therefore, I want to ask you to allow Liz to meet her friends. They won't stop bothering me until they've seen her," Esli pleaded with Ed."Whatever." Ed didn't mind. He didn't restrict Liz's social interactions, as long as she wasn't with men like Carlos."Thank goodness you understand. Before this, Liz was indeed very active. Ah, there they are!" Esli pointed to the door as two girls in flashy outfits appeared."LIZ! You finally came!" They exclaimed joyfully and hugged Ruby, who stood there in a panic. She accepted the hugs from the two strangers with confusion.But Ruby remembered Esli's words, telling her to just go along with whatever happened. That meant she had to pretend to know them."Are you well? I missed you so much!" Ruby greeted them as warmly as possible, and they both screamed in excitement."Alright, okay, you should go outside. Don't make a scene here. You don't mind, do you? Liz usually spends time with them in her room until the evening, chatting, eating, or what
My BEAST HUSBAND He Came Here?
"Mamá…" Ruby called softly with a hoarse voice, wanting to approach and talk.However, her mother was now screaming loudly without stopping, throwing pillows and blankets at Ruby. She chased her away in fear."Go! Don't come here! Don't follow me anymore! Go away!"More tears streamed down Ruby's face. Ruby was unable to avoid the impact of all the objects thrown at her."Mamá," Ruby whispered, allowing the pillow to hit her face, followed by the blanket, and lastly, what looked like a flower vase. Ruby saw it, but her eyes remained empty as the vase struck her forehead."Oh my God!" Right after that, the nurse who had been accompanying her entered, pulling Ruby away and pressing the blue button near the door."Vieja!" (Old lady)The nurse approached Ruby's mother, joined by a few others who had just arrived. They tried to calm her down but couldn't. They couldn't be rough, but the hysteria continued.Ruby didn't go far; she just crouched by the door, covering her face with her hands,
My BEAST HUSBAND Are You Hiding Something?
"What is ADDF?" Ruby asked."Alzheimer’s Drug Discovery Foundation. It's a foundation dedicated to discovering Alzheimer's drugs." Lita clarified, "They aim to treat, prevent, or cure Alzheimer's.""I've never heard of it." Ruby frowned. If such a foundation existed, Ruby would have heard about it by now. She had done extensive searches for medications and other treatments related to Alzheimer's."The foundation is in America. There’s nothing like it here. However, the drugs and discoveries are still very experimental. None have been proven to be 100 percent effective yet. But at least there might be something that can slow down the disease's progression."Lita mentioned a glimmer of hope that Ruby hadn't felt in a long time. She hoped that her mother would no longer look at her with a strange face."Where exactly is ADDF?" Ruby asked, more animated now. Even a grain of hope was enough for her."New York. I'll provide you with brochures and additional information.""I’m interested!" R
My BEAST HUSBAND A New Task
“Hiding what? You’ve got it wrong.” Esli nervously released Ed’s hand before his own could be severed.“I just want Liz to enjoy herself when she meets her friends.”Esli tried to persuade him, but Ed kept walking inside, not knowing where Liz's room was but guessing it would be on the second floor.“Wait, Don Rosas!” Esli followed in a panic, cursing under his breath.“Hey! Where are you going?”Just as Ed reached the end of the stairs, Ruby greeted them sweetly, looking normal, but her shoulders moved slightly, hiding her labored breathing. It was clear she had been running, but she tried to look as if she hadn’t.“Where have you been?” asked Ed. Ruby had emerged from the hallway leading to the back exit.“Oh, I was just seeing my friends off. They just left.” Ruby forced a smile.“What happened to your forehead?” Ed approached Ruby and tilted her head up. The bandage was quite large.“This? I fell while fooling around earlier. It’s a small wound, but my friends insisted I wear a ba
My BEAST HUSBAND Why are You Angry?
“Are you crazy?!” Ruby couldn't hold on to her tongue any longer. She wanted to curse at Esli.“Why? This should be an easy task. I see he's already quite interested in you. You just need to seduce him a bit more. Use your body, or whatever; just make him worship you.”Ruby's hand at her side clenched into a fist, preventing herself from grabbing a vase and throwing it at Esli's face. She couldn't understand how someone could be so heartless.“You might think I'm cruel, but believe me. Rosas deserves what's happening to him. You don't need to feel sorry for Rosas or act sanctimonious like Ja—just follow my instructions. That way, you can be with Jade again soon. The sooner you make him fall in love, the sooner I'll give your mother back.” Esli sneered.Meanwhile, Ruby's head was pounding. Her mind raced, searching for a way forward.“Two hundred million pesos. I want 200 million as payment,” Ruby stated firmly.“You must be insane!” Esli raged again.That amount was indeed fantastic.

“Such chaos,” Liz lamented as she watched the crowd of rowdy children, who had become the main guests at her wedding.“Yeah, I didn’t expect it to get this wild either.” Ruby sat beside her, watching AJ hand out chocolate-covered strawberries to the other kids.He wasn’t alone—Claud, Val's second child, was helping him. They eventually grew close, even though their conversations were sometimes limited because Claud was more fluent in Italian than English. Still, they got along well enough.“How did it all start?” Ed frowned.“I don’t know.” Ruby was also unsure.“Maybe I shouldn’t have agreed when AJ asked.” Liz deeply regretted it.Somehow, AJ had convinced Liz to provide a chocolate fountain for her wedding, and it had become the source of chaos. The younger children were enjoying it, but soon chocolate stains appeared on the white tablecloths, as wel
My BEAST HUSBAND Extra 65 - Busy Life
"Do I have to? I already checked that document yesterday. Can’t you do it instead?" When Ed saw another email from Otiz, he complained.It was a financial report. Since Matteo had spread his investments in every direction—across more or less thirty companies—the financial reports Otiz received came from all directions, across different types of businesses. Ed hadn't anticipated this.Being an investor wasn’t as straightforward as it seemed. He still had to work.“You’re the one who has to check it. I’m just the middleman,” Otiz firmly refused.He could refuse because the request was made over the phone. Perhaps if they were face-to-face, Otiz would be more compliant. He was no longer blindly following Ed's orders, carefully sorting out what should and should not be done. He was only responsible for delivering financial reports, not reviewing them.Ed grumbled. He was quite used to reviewing company pa

"‘What do you want to show me?’ As she approached Ed, Ruby inquired.She left AJ's side; he was busy reading a story to his two younger siblings. Elena and Elisa sat quietly, either really listening or getting sleepy. It was already time for their afternoon nap."Read this," Ed shifted, making room for Ruby to sit beside him, and handed her a phone displaying an article in Spanish. Less than two hours had passed since the publication of this hot news story.Ruby didn’t pay attention to that, though, because she was immediately stunned by the headline.‘DEA ARRESTS MAJOR MEXICAN CARTEL AND EXPOSES BILLION-DOLLAR BUSINESS NETWORK’"What... you...?" Ruby turned pale and panicked, of course."Read it to the end," Ed said, pointing to the rest of the text that she had not yet seen.Ruby read quickly and frowned. There was no mention of Ed or Rosas anywhere. Only Reyes. Marco Reyes. He was the story's
My BEAST HUSBAND Extra 63 - The Expected Betrayal
Two black vans speed down a deserted road. It was already nighttime, and they were the only ones there. The end of the road was in sight—a black iron gate.“Ram it!”A shout rang out, and the vans didn’t slow down. The passengers inside, all dressed in black, held on tight as a deafening crash echoed.The gate fell, bent, but opened. The two vans barged through and stopped right in front of the brightly lit house.“Get in and kill everyone!”Another shout, and the people inside the vans scrambled out, storming into the beachside house. Some were carrying firearms; others were wielding clubs.However, as they entered, everyone froze. No one came to greet them. The house was supposed to be full of guards, which was why they had come in numbers—ready for a confrontation.In reality, what greeted them was silence. Not a single person appeared, even though the house was brightly lit.“

"AJ, don't make Abuela tired!" Ruby reprimanded AJ for running away with something, while Mia pursued him.But it was impossible to make AJ stop, especially since his younger siblings were laughing joyfully at his antics. Elisa and Elena had just learned to walk, and they happily followed him around.AJ couldn't stop when he had such an audience. Mia seemed to be scolding him, but everyone knew Mia could never really be upset at AJ.Ruby had to step in, followed by Ed to watch over Elisa and Elena. Although falling on the sand wouldn't hurt, the beach had sharp rocks that could scrape them."Mommy! They should chase me! Don't pick them up!" AJ didn’t want his little sisters to be carried away and stop the fun."Alright," Ruby said, intending to supervise them closely."How about we take a vacation?" Ed abruptly proposed the idea, having just finished reading a message on his phone."Hm?" Ruby was surprised. There had been no suc

"Here."Ed gave Otiz a handkerchief to wipe away his tears. If it had been just a few, he would have let Otiz cry—and wiped the tears with the sleeve of his jacket.The problem was that Otiz couldn’t stop crying. He had already been emotional when Ed stood beside him at the altar, and it got worse when he saw Lori walking down the aisle, escorted by flowers. It was all too beautiful and dazzling for his eyes.“Sorry,” Otiz stammered, wiping the remaining tears from his face.“What are you apologizing for? At a wedding, shedding tears is not considered inappropriate. You're just too happy. No one will blame you.” Ed gently patted Otiz’s shoulder and then turned his gaze forward.Of course, Lori was the focus of the event. Her choice of dress was perfect, blending seamlessly with the entire garden decor. Flowers, ribbons, music, and all the other elements were carefully and precisely chosen—now showcasi
My BEAST HUSBAND Extra 60 - Something For The Future
Ed tapped his finger on the glass in his hand. His eyes were fixed on a single point—Marco Reyes.The man was speaking with Otiz. Nothing important. Marco was just making small talk, and Otiz was doing the same—being polite, answering Marco's questions about his law firm's progress. Ed actually needed to speak to both of them, but he chose to start with Marco first.Ed just needed to gesture with his chin, and Otiz understood immediately. He excused himself, making up a reason, and left Marco alone."I need to talk to you," Ed said as he approached."Oh? What is it?" Marco immediately followed Ed, moving to the quiet side yard. The other guests filled the living room."I want you to handle the shipment to Ecuador and Brazil next week."Marco looked as if he had choked. This was incredibly surprising. Ed had never let him touch the South American market before. Ed had always handled it himself. Marco had only been managing North A

"Mommy, I want to try! You be Elena, and I'll be Elisa."AJ reached out his hand, asking for the milk bottle from Ruby. He wanted to try feeding the babies—and he chose Elisa.Usually, Tita was around to help Ruby, but today Tita was busy, so Ruby had been on her own since earlier."You can, but please be careful, okay? Don’t let her choke, and don’t squeeze." Ruby guided AJ's hand to hold the bottle filled with pre-warmed breast milk, helping him apply just the right pressure so it wouldn't press too hard against Elisa's lips."Wow! Look, Mommy! She's drinking!" AJ exclaimed happily, eyes sparkling with joy. This was the first time he was directly involved—doing something for his little sister. AJ usually watched, but at first he was afraid to hold the babies. He would look in awe but wouldn’t dare touch them.“See? It’s not a big deal, right? You don’t have to be scared anymore.”&l
My BEAST HUSBAND Extra 58 - Two Little Angle
From their disheveled appearance, it was clear that Liz and Asher had either just rushed out of a room or possibly run over here. One thing was certain: as soon as they heard the news about Ruby, they had hurried over."Where? Ruby... You're pale. Why... It shouldn't be happening now."Just like Lori, Liz was out of breath as she approached Ruby, panicking. The news had shocked everyone. Liz had already planned to stay in Puerto Vallarta next week to be there for Ruby when she gave birth.Of course, Liz no longer lived at Ed’s house. She had managed to buy her own apartment.“I’m fine, and they’re fine too. But the nurse hasn’t brought them here yet. Calm down… breathe.”Ruby was already able to speak clearly and now had to calm Liz down. She was the one lying down, barely conscious, yet had to reassure everyone else."Are you really okay? No problems? Any complications?" Liz touched Ruby’s bo
