NovelOnlineOne week later, Ben departed from the Aryadelle airport and arrived in Ylore without informing anyone. He did not report to Elliot his travel this time, but when he applied for leave, Elliot did not ask any questions.
Both knew what was happening from their conversation during Shea's wedding.
Ben strode out of the airport and a person instantly approached him.

"Miss Gould has askedto pick you up," the man said. "Please follow me." Seeing how respectful the man appeared to be, Ben followed him.
He had wanted to get in touch with Ruby after arriving, but she had kept asking when he would be in Ylore, so he had provided her with his flight information before boarding the flight.
Half an hour later, the car stopped in front of a mansion.
Ben got out of the car and the nanny immediately cout to greet him, before explaining, "Miss Gould is still recovering from giving birth so she can't go out.
Please understand.” "Is the baby okay?" Ben was more concerned for the baby.
"The doctor comes over every day. The doctor says that the baby is doing fine. So, long as the symptoms don't resurface within a month, everything will be alright," said the nanny while leading Ben into the house.
Once Ben changed into slippers, he went into the living room and saw Ruby with Ivy in her arms.

When she grows up, | will tell her that you are the one who named her." Ben glanced at the baby Ruby was holding in her arms. She was tinier than he had imagined and was sleeping peacefully.
"Would you like to hold her?" Ruby offered.
Ben cleared his throat. "She is so small, | don't know how to. Besides, she is sleeping. | don’t want to wake her." "She won't wake up. She is asleep for about twenty hours throughout the day." Ruby passed the baby to Ben. "Since Elliot can't make it here, you can hold her in his place!" Worried that he would drop the baby, he stretched out both of his arms ;c&;SKU; held her. Perhaps it was because his posture was too stiff, the baby opened her big, bright eyes after a while.
The moment he met her eyes, Ben felt as though he had been struck by lightning.
"Isn't this child... Layla?" thought Ben as he stared dazedly at the baby's face, completely rendered speechless by shock.
Ruby noticed his reaction and smiled. "You think she looks like Layla, don't you? She is Elliot's daughter, after all, so she does look a bit like Layla. If only Elliot can see her, he definitely won't have the heart to abandon her."
