My Baby’s Daddy novel Chapter 2042

Chapter 2042 Hello, Dad

Ellen woke up naturally at 4.30PM, but she was still startled when she opened her

eyes. Shoot, what time is it?!

Just as she was frantically getting out of bed, the man on the couch reassured her

gently. “Take it easy. It’s still early.”

Seeing that Jared had returned, she heaved a sigh of relief. “What time is it? Have I

overslept?”

“Four-thirty. The dinner reservation my parents got is at six. We have plenty of time,”

said Jared as he sat next to her and draped her jacket over her shoulder. It was

already winter, and it felt a little chilly when she had just woken up.

At the thought that she was going to meet his parents, and that she was the only one

remaining in her family, Ellen couldn’t help feeling sad.

“From now on, you’re a Presgrave too. We will be your loving family,” Jared comforted

her. He immediately knew what was running through her head when he saw the

bitterness in her eyes.

With that, the sliver of bitterness in Ellen’s heart was driven away. “Okay!” She

nodded while leaning in his arms. “And I will be your dutiful wife.”

At 5.00PM, the Presgraves headed to the restaurant. They had come in advance to

wait for Jared and Ellen’s arrival.

Meanwhile, in New Town, Jared and Ellen had also departed under the bodyguards’

escort.

Back in the restaurant’s private room, Elliot and Willow were discussing her future,

and he enjoined her about thinking twice when she wanted to go anywhere

dangerous. As she interacted with antiques, Elliot worried that his precious baby girl

would get curious and follow others into a graveyard. That was very, very alarming.

“Relax, Dad. I wasn’t born yesterday,” Willow said to her father.

However, to Elliot, Willow was a child no matter how old she became, and he wouldn’t

feel assured unless he enjoined her anything three times.

After all, he personally raised this little one up. No way was he going to let anyone

take advantage of her. However, at the thought that he would eventually have to marry

A chuckle escaped Anastasia as she extended her hand out for a handshake. “Just

call me ‘Mom’ like Jared does, Ellen. From now on, you’re my other daughter.”

Anastasia’s words truly touched Ellen, and she couldn’t help but well up with

emotional tears. “Mom!” she said with a quivering voice; it had been far too long since

she had addressed anyone with the word.

“Yes, dear?” Anastasia replied with a smile.

Meanwhile, Willow handed Ellen a paper napkin and said, “Hi, Ellen, I’m Willow.”

“Hi, Willow.” Ellen was immediately in love with her future sister-in-law as well, and as

she looked up, she found that her future father-in-law had gotten up from his seat as

well. That said, her heart skipped a beat, for it was her first time meeting someone so

intimidating.

Elliot had likely caught the young woman’s evasive gaze as he smiled warmly and

said, “I’m your father-in-law. Welcome to the family. From now on, I’m your father.”

At that, Ellen raised her head, and her eyes welled up with moving tears once more.

The nervousness she had vanished, too, as she called out timidly, “Hello, Dad
