My Baby’s Daddy

Chapter 1017

Richard‘s kiss felt exceptionally passionate than ever to her tonight. Perhaps, it was because he had consumed

some alcohol earlier on. 

At around 10.00PM, Richard finally sobered up. He had to send Phillip home because Phillip was too drunk to go

home by himself. 

“Drive safely.” Angela and her family sent them off. 

As for Gilbert, he was also too drunk to drive home. So, Angela became the driver of the night and sent her parents

home. In the car, she heard Daphne complain, “Why did you drink so much? 

“Because I feel happy.” Gilbert chuckled happily. 

“What‘s there to be happy about?!” 

“Our daughter has found such a great match and our future son–in–law is so impressive. Of course, I‘m happy!” 

At that moment, Angela–who is currently driving–couldn‘t contain her laughter. Meanwhile, Daphne couldn‘t contain

her exasperated laughter too. “You should take a look at your silly self!” 

That night, Angela texted Richard to express concern about Phillip‘s condition. Phillip was a good drinker so he just

needed a good night‘s sleep and he would be fine the next day. 

The next morning, which was a Friday, she had an appointment to pick out a gown in preparation for the banquet

that night. 

She had originally intended to get Richard to come over and pick a suit too but after giving him a call, she was told

that he was occupied so he couldn‘t come over. Besides, his mother had prepared his outfit too. 

As soon as Angela realized that she was about to meet her future mother–in–law soon, she couldn‘t quite contain

her anxiety. 

Daphne came along with Angela to pick out her gown for the banquet. Angela has required an elegant yet slightly

more conservative gown for the occasion tonight. As long as her elegance and beauty could be showcased by the

gown, the style of the gown did not really matter to her. 

Angela had fair skin and the perfect figure to look good in the different styles of gowns. Soon enough, she picked a

slightly shimmery gold evening gown. She also had a makeup artist scheduled to arrive at her place at three in the

afternoon to put 

on her makeup for the night. 

She hadn‘t had a good night‘s sleep the night before so she took a nap in the afternoon. After waking up from her

nap, she was well–rested and in good spirits. Her skin looked more supple and flawless than ever. 

In a short while, Richard would come to pick her up. So, she started on her makeup session. Her flowing hair was

weaved into a crown on her head and it was held in place by a simple pearl headpiece at the back of her head.

There were no other embellishments necessary as her feature itself was already stunning enough. 

The simple and refreshing makeup she had on was enchanting and was emphasizing her beauty. 

At five in the evening, at the entrance to the Meyers mansion, Richard drove a black car and approached. His suit

for the night was a slightly more formal–looking one. He had on a dark–colored shirt with a tie and he also had on a

suit that fitted well. He looked just like a top male model. 

He stood by the entrance like Prince Charming awaiting his princess date for the night. Meanwhile, Angela walked

out with a nude jacket draped on her arms, and she looked like a princess indeed. She was stunning, beautiful,

poised, and elegant. 

Daphne came over with a smile on her face. “Richard, I‘ll hand over Angela to you tonight.” 

“Don‘t worry, Mrs. Meyers. I‘ll definitely take good care of her.” Richard nodded. 

His voice and expression gave one a safe feeling and Angela reached out to clutch his arm as she turned to say to

Daphne, “Mom, we‘ll head off now.” 

“Have fun.” Daphne sent them off and watched their retreating backs. She could practically see them on their

wedding day and she couldn‘t help tearing up at the thought of that. My baby girl‘s about to get married. 

Richard behaved in a chivalrous manner as he opened the door to the front passenger seat for Angela. As she

lowered herself to enter the car, he placed his hand on the door frame to protect her head instinctively. 

His car moved forward gracefully under the shimmering lights of the surroundings and it felt as if an air of romance

had descended upon the entire town. 

The banquet was held at a world–class banquet hall and it wasn‘t just any ordinary hotel ballroom. The guests

invited to the event tonight were parties that Scarlet intended to express her gratitude toward and those guests

were made up of the wealthy, the powerful, and even ordinary people too. 

Nonetheless, each one of them was honored to be invited. 

Angela was led into the banquet hall by Richard and he held her hand in his. Scarlet – greeting guests by the

entrance–saw them instantly as soon as they walked in and there was a surprised and excited look on her face as

she walked over to them gracefully with poise. 

“Richard, you guys are finally here.” 

“Hi, Ms. Husson.” Angela quickly greeted Scarlet. 

“You must be Richard‘s girlfriend, Angela. You‘re so pretty.” Scarlet instantly took a liking to Angela 

“Mom, you seem busy. We‘ll head inside and take a seat first.” Richard didn‘t want to interrupt Scarlet while she

was busy with work. 

“Sure, head inside and get a seat. Take good care of Miss Meyers.” Scarlet nodded and watched as Richard entered

the hall.
