My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1205
Sophie looked horrified. She quickly shook her head. “No, that’s not what I said. I said I saw her holding Ren’s hand, but I don’t know if she’s doing anything else.”
“Unbelievable!” Charlotte slammed the table. She was just going to get up, but then dizziness washed over her, and she slumped down onto the couch.
Shocked, Sophie stood up. She shouted, “Charlotte fainted! Somebody, come!”
Two servants made a quick dash into the room. One of them called the hospital, while the other summoned the family physician.
Charlotte was deathly pale. The sight of it made Sophie gulp. Fear was finally kicking in. She had no idea what she said would make Charlotte faint, but then she realized that the lady was almost eighty. Of course telling her anything shocking would do a number on her.
Scarlet came right away. Sophie quickly picked up her bag and tried to leave. Angela was hurrying over, so she bumped into her.
She noticed the nervous look Sophie was giving her. Wait. She might have something to do with this. Angela grabbed her by the collar. “What did you tell her?”
“N-Nothing. Let me go. I have to go.” She escaped Angela’s grasp and left in a hurry. Angela heaved a sigh. Great. She must have told her about that. I can’t believe an outsider broke the news to Charlotte first.
Scarlet and Richard were right beside Charlotte. They massaged her temples and wrists, but she still didn’t regain consciousness. Harold was asleep from drinking too much, so Scarlet told everyone not to wake him.
The ambulance had arrived. Richard picked Charlotte up and quickly went into it. The ambulance quickly made for the hospital, while Richard and Angela were following it in a car.
Scarlet picked her phone up and called Ren. “What is it, Scarlet?”
“Mom fainted. We’re on our way to the hospital.”
“What happened to her?”
“I don’t know. She just fainted. Probably got some shock. We’re on our way to the hospital now. Don’t worry. I’m just informing you about this.” I’ll be right there.”
“Sure. You come too.” Mom’s not exactly young anymore. We need to be prepared for anything.
Angela hesitated for a while, then she told Richard about how Sophie looked all nervous and left in a hurry. “So you’re saying Grandma fainted because she told her about that on purpose?” He frowned. Anger was welling up in Richard.
“Probably. She hates it that Ren likes Ruka, and she just threatened Ruka in the afternoon. Not to mention she left in a real hurry. She must have something to do with this,” she guessed.
“This is why Uncle Ren didn’t tell them about this. They’re too old to get another shock of their lives. That’s also why he didn’t tell anyone he’s given up the election, because this might happen.”
“But Ren loves his parents. What should they do now? He and Ruka are in for a rough ride. Angela sighed. She was worried for them as well.
At the same time, Ruka and her parents had arrived home. Right after they went inside, Claire looked at Ruka solemnly. “Ruka, come with me.”
Robert was a little tipsy. He lay down on the couch, still oblivious to the fact that his wife was looking a bit too solemn.
Ruka went with her mother, and Claire closed the door. Ruka’s heart skipped a beat. She looked at her mother nervously. The tension in the air was almost suffocating her. She was not used to seeing her gentle mother being this solemn.
“Are you trying to say something, Mom?” Ruka asked. Claire wanted to say something, but she started crying angrily before she could. The emotions she held back finally broke out and her chest heaved.
