Mommy...Can you Win Daddy's Love again?

Chapter 218 - Shall I Throw Hot Coffee?

" Keep trust in me. Every feeling in my heart for you is real, " He said, caressing her back.

She moved away from him and looked at him angrily. She fisted his shirt and shouted, " Then why did you hide it from me? "

" I was scared to lose you. I never had any bad intentions towards you. I became selfish in love. I don't want you to go away from me " he expressed, cupping her face. With his words, she placed her face in the crook of his neck and broke down in tears. 

" You made me hang on in a critical situation. I respect Martin next to my mom. Don't you ever think about my situation? If came to know that we are in love then he will cut all ties with me," she sobbed.

" Please give me some time, I will talk with Martin and try to convince him," he said, stroking her hair. Her cry subsided after a while.

" Ru….It's not good for you to cry in this situation. It affects the growth of the baby…" he informed still holding her in his arms. All of sudden, she pushed him away and shouted " Stay away from me. Don't try to meet me again" 

" How can I stay away from you? When you are giving me a cute baby? Huh? " he pinched her nose.

She glared at him and stood up from the bed. She turned away and walked towards the window. He too went to her and hugged her from behind placing his palms on her stomach. He brushed his lips on her shoulder blade and whispered in her ears, " I love you…."

She turned towards him and pushed him away. Then she yelléd, " Don't touch me…". For her word, he looked sad at her and asked, " Why baby? "

" Because I Hate you…" she replied.

" How can you hate the father of your child? Don't you think it's wrong? " he questioned.

" Because….the father of my baby is a liar and cheater…" she replied, fuming in anger.

Just in time, the door of the room was opened wide. Both noticed, Katherine came with two cups of coffee. " Why do you allow him to come to this room? "She asked Katherine.

" How could you think that this tough lady permitted me to meet you? The permission was given by Mr. Wilson, who is a sweet and soft person, who understands my heart, " Steven answered.

" Shut your mouth or else I throw this hot coffee on your face " Katherine threatened.

" Kathie...Great idea. Just do it…" Ruby encouraged her.

" Unfortunately, I can't do it as he is my guest, " Kathie replied to her in a sad tone. Ruby's face lit up as she got a brilliant idea in her mind. Then she said to Kathie, " But I can do it with my hands. Wait there and will come to take coffee cups" 

When she stepped on the carpet, her foot was twisted due to her slipper which was on it. Instantly Steven helped her not to fall on the floor. " Be careful, Ruby. What if something happens to the baby? "he asked. She didn't reply as she was so scared and also Kathie. Kathie quickly walked towards them and asked her, " Are you okay? "

" You stupid girl, can't you see and walk? " she shouted.

" I will be careful… " she replied timidly.

Steven took the cup from the tray and asked, " I think you were in such a hurry to drop hot coffee on me? Would you be happy if hot coffee fell on me? "

" Yes…" She replied.

" Where do you want to drop the hot coffee? In my Face! Hands! Legs! Body! Tell me.. " he questioned.

She said those words in anger but never had the intention to hurt him. Kathie doesn't want to stay where Steven was. So she informed Ruby " I am leaving this room. Handle this crazy man…" 

 Kathie gave her coffee and walked towards the door. She closed the door behind her. 

" Tell me ...where do you want to drop the coffee .." he repeated. 

" Is it here? " Saying he poured hot coffee on the back of his left palm. 

" Steven…." Ruby screamed. 

"Or else on my face? " Saying he took the cup near to his face.

" Stop…." She pushed the cup from his hand.

" Are you crazy? How could you do that? " She took his hand and started blowing air with her mouth. Tears brimmed out of her eyes on seeing his burn.

" You idiot...why did you pour coffee on your skin? I said those words in anger. How could you think that I wanted to pour hot coffee on you? " She cried more.

 " I thought you would be happy if I suffered in pain. By the way, it was your wish and how I cannot fulfill it! " he said.

" You….stupid...how could you think that I will be happy if you are suffering in pain? Huh! " She dragged him to the bathroom and turned on the tap and placed his hand under running water.

" If I am a cheater to hide my identity for my love for you then what about you? You are also hiding your love for me for your friendship with my brother? " He said, pulling closer to him by his waist.

She didn't raise her head not to look into his eyes. She kept her eyes down looking at the floor. He leaned towards her and whispered, " Everything is fair in love and war"

With his words, she raised her head and looked into his eyes. They both were so close to each other that if any of them talked, their lips would brush with other lips. He took her palm and placed it on his chest then he asked her to feel how fast his heartbeats when she is close to him and how much effect she has on him. 

" Go and tell your sugar words to your fiance… " she said angrily.

 " Oh my god! Ruby ...Trust me…. She is not my fiance. But it was my mom who sent Rachel to create misunderstanding between us…" he said in a high pitch.

" Your mom!! " She exclaimed in shock.

He nodded his head and said " I already said my decision to my mom last night that I will marry only you. Keep faith in my love…" 

She felt the sincerity in his voice and her heart softened with his words. She lost herself in his brown eyes. There was silence for a few seconds between them.

" Ruby ...I love you .. " he said and captured her lips. She closed her eyes and was carried away by his kiss. Slowly his hands moved inside her night top and caressed her back. She was so turned on with his touch that she moaned against his lips still closing her eyes. He smiled inside how her body was reacting with his touch while kissing her.

He stopped kissing her when she was breathing hard. He left her lips and looked at swollen lips. He caressed those pink lips with his thumb then he asked her, " Please move into my house. I want to take care of you and our baby… "

" Please… Ruby .." he kissed her forehead.

" It's not so simple…" she replied and came out of the bathroom. He followed her, stood behind her, and requested her to think once for their baby.

" When I and Katherine were in bad times, Martin was the only one person who stood with us. He is more than a friend to us. Hope you understand what I mean to say.. If you hide your identity from me to get my love then what about Martin's friendship. He almost lost his legs in the accident when he was trying to save me and Kathie. He is a selfless person. Try to think from my point of view, " she expressed what is in her heart.

" I agree with you but don't push me away from your life… " he pleaded. She hugged him and said, " I love you...Steve..It will also be hard for me to stay away from you …". She cried, making his shirt wet.

 " I am so sorry, Ruby. I never thought that selfishness would hurt you like this. I promise you that till Martin agrees for our marriage I will not force you to marry me…" he said.

" And you should also promise me one thing…" he told me. She moved back from him and looked at him confusingly.

" What! " She asked.

" Eat healthy food and take proper care of our baby…" he instructed. 

" Why should I take care when my loving boyfriend is there to take care of his baby? " She asked.

" So...you are coming back to work! " He asked her with surprise.

" Of Course. I don't want you to keep another personal secretary other than me…" she said, giving him a sharp glare.

" Baby ...after I fell in love with you. I never looked at the other woman. You can trust me in this…" he clarified her doubt.

" Okay then. Go to work " she suggested.

" Please ...Ruby. Let me sleep beside you all day. I didn't sleep last night thinking of you" he said.

" No….Leave now….." She denied.
