Baby? You are awake? Why are you crying, my love? Don’t cry, you are safe now, no one is going to hurt you again, I promise you,”She heard Liam’s voice and she started crying, even more, she was still dreaming, this had to be a dream.“Ruby?

“What’s going on here?”Liam asked looking from Ruby to the man whom he knew was her ex-husband, he didn’t like that the man was here at Ruby’s place, he didn’t even know they were in contact and the atmosphere looked tense too, he wondered what they were talking about when he walked in, not that he didn’t trust Ruby but he did feel a little jealous when he saw him here.“Aha, it is you? The one who has been sleeping with a married woman and even got her pregnant? Wow,”Liam didn’t need to speak to the man so he let whatever he was saying slide.“Ruby? What’s going on?”He asked her, she bit her lips as if she was holding back tears, God if this man did anything that made her cry, he was going to forget his manners and beat shits out of him, he didn’t like him at all, how Ruby was able to be with someone like him and even married him was beyond him but it wasn’t in his place to judge because he hadn’t been there.“You don’t hear what I say right?

“So what is he saying now? That you are still married to him? That doesn’t make any sense if you guys have been living apart for more than a year now, I should have beaten him up better,”Liam said as he felt his anger rise again, bold of that stupid man to come here and make his woman sad, God helps him if he sees him again.“Liam, let’s not talk like that just yet, I am still trying to come to terms with this, beating Richard up isn’t going to do anything, especially not when he didn’t do anything,”She said and he couldn’t believe she was defending him.“Wait? Are you defending him right now? I don’t understand,”“I wasn’t defending him, I am just saying you don’t have to start punching people everywhere because of me,”She responded.“Wow, that sounds like you are defending him, did you by any chance hear what he was saying? Sorry if you think trying to get people to respect you is me being violent,”“That’s not what I am saying, all I am saying is that you don’t need to beat up p

“Why would you think I am angry at you?”Liam asked not understanding how that even happened, he couldn’t deny that he had pretty much been avoiding talking to her for the past couple of days but that had nothing to do with him being mad at her and everything to do with him giving her space, he didn't want to crowd her with everything going on.“I thought you were, you didn’t talk much to me, you haven’t hugged or kissed me for days, you haven’t told me you love me either, and I haven’t seen you for days, I thought you were not here,”She said and he felt like hell, he went up to her and kissed her.“I was here all along, saw you every time you left the room, I thought you knew I was home too and you just didn’t want to talk to me, I am not angry at you Ruby, believe me, I acted like a selfish idiot that day and felt bad about it immediately, I wanted to talk to you and say sorry but you didn’t want to talk to me,”“I shouldn’t have locked you out that night, I thought you would say s

“Sam?”“Yes, he is my lawyer, I spoke to him and he suggested I go talk to Richard, I did that today but Richard is so selfish he doesn’t want to sign so I am going with Sam’s first suggestion which is to file for a lawsuit,”She informed.“Well, in that case, Sam is one of my favorite people now too,”He said and she laughed.“Oh, I missed us so much,”“Me too, I miss Kristen too,”She said in a sad voice.“We can go see her, she is enjoying her time with her grandparents, it’s just them as none of my siblings are at the mansion, mom called earlier and Kristen was having a fun time in the background,”He revealed and she cheered up.“That sounds so cool,”“Yeah, we can go over to see her if you want, mom won’t let me take her away until the one week I promised she would spend there is up, we can go be with her too, I know mom will want to see you too,”He said and she frowned in sadness again.“What is making you frown this time woman,”He asked pulling her face to his.“Talk to me,
