Meanwhile, Ruka was nonplussed by the sudden turn of events. What is this pretty lady talking about?
His countenance stiffened as he held Victoria’s hand. “I’ll ask someone to send you home right now.” His voice left no room for a denial.
She was baffled and her heart was pricked by an invisible knife. It was her first time seeing him so nervous. Ever since he was elected as the vice president, his manner of working had been calm and solemn. Yet, the anxiety on his face was evident a moment ago.
“Why? You don’t have the guts to admit it to my face? Ren, what are you afraid of?” She shrugged his hand off. There was not one bit of rationality left in her under the influence of alcohol.
It was her first time in five years seeing the man she loved inviting a girl for a meal. Thus, it was enough to prove that this young lady was the person he coveted.
Is she the person he has been waiting for?
“Speak! Is she the one?” Victoria raised her head as she was persistent to get to the bottom of it.
“Stop the fuss. You should get going.” The glint in Ren’s eyes was daunting.
“Miss, what’s your name?” she questioned Ruka suddenly.
“I’m Ruka Singed. I’m…” the innocent girl replied politely.
“She is my sister’s best friend’s daughter,” Ren continued Ruka’s words. Victoria was stunned for a moment, for she could clearly tell that he was avoiding something. Is he protecting her? Who is she?
“Nice to meet you. I’m Victoria Parfait.” She took the initiative to introduce herself due to the sudden swell of self confidence. If this young brat was truly the one he liked, she need not have to worry about her rival.
“Hi. I’m Ruka.” Ruka returned a smile.
However, Victoria’s arm was suddenly grabbed by a hand. Ren pulled her while ordering Ruka, “Go back to the private room. I gotta talk to her for a moment.”
Ruka sensibly wheeled around and left. Victoria’s gaze zeroed in on her figure until she vanished in the corridor. Then, Victoria raised her head at him. “So, you like that kid?”
“Stop spewing nonsense. It’s not like what you think.” He let go of her arm and his countenance slightly darkened. “You’ve gone overboard tonight. You should leave.”
At this moment, she was almost sober and was slightly mortified. However, she did not regret blurting these.
“Sorry. I’m behaving like this because I love you so much.” She bit her lip before. lifting her head to question, “So, what’s going on between the both of you?”
A sinister glint flickered in Ren’s eyes. “There are things that you just don’t ask.”
His gentleness attitude was displayed only for a normal interaction; once the other party had crossed the line, Rent would warn them not to go too far.
To that, Victoria’s heart squeezed. The more he steered clear of that topic, the more she knew how important that girl was to him.
She had never imagined someone, who was younger than him by many years, would claim his heart.
Has he been waiting for her all along? But she seems ordinary, except for her beauty and young spirit. She doesn’t seem outstanding in any way. Which charm of hers managed to captivate a man like Ren, who’s perching at the top of the authorities?
Victoria could not get through to it, yet she wished to know the reason because she was not a quitter. Some people would set back others’ lifetime once they met up; how could she lay her eyes on others when she had met someone like Ren?
“Fine. No more questions.” She sighed. “Sorry. Please forgive my ill behavior, but my feelings for you will never change. I will always wait for you. As long as you’re not married, I will continue to do so.”
She would show her love for him through actions. Even if she had to keep waiting, she would not regret the decision to do So.
With that being said, she turned around to leave the scene. After merely taking three steps forward, she turned her head to glance at the handsome man, who stood under the lights, with heavy hearts. Every part of him was radiating charms that enchanted her and captivated her heart firmly.
In the meantime, Ruka was eating absent mindedly while thinking of the woman’s words.
What does she mean by is it her? Is she talking about me?
Ar that moment, the door was pushed open and Ren entered the room. She quickly stood up to welcome him. “Has the lady left?
Hmm Mr. Ren, is she…” She planned to gush about the lady.
“She’s my colleague,” he answered straightforwardly.
“She seems to like you a lot,” stated Ruka cautiously.
He cast his gaze onto her as she pursed her lips almost instantly. Peeking at the grumpy man, she figured that it would be wise to not pry further.
Suddenly, the air of tension spanned in the room. As she lowered her head and stuffed herself to keep her cool, someone placed a shrimp onto her plate. It turned out that she was so distracted that she forgot to take some dishes for herself. So, the man added more onto her plate.
Ren let out a silent sigh. “She’s Victoria Parfait, the chief of the Translation. Department. You’ll be working for her after this,” Ruka raised her head abruptly. “She will be my supervisor in the future?”
“Yep.” He nodded as the fact that Ruka would be Victoria’s subordinate occurred to him.
“I should’ve addressed her properly. I sounded impolite.” She slumped into a dismal.
It’s not a big deal. Don’t stress about it, Ren comforted Ruka.
She pursed her lips into a smile. “Okay. I’ll relax.”
Now that he was in a better mood, she seized the chance to voice out her curiosity. “Miss Parfait looked at me and questioned whether I was ‘her’. What does. that mean? Did she take me as someone else?”
He suddenly stopped chewing as his intense gaze landed upon her visage. “Hmm, she got the wrong person.”
“Did she mistake me as your crush? I think I should explain our relationship to her.”
“Ruka, Ren brusquely called her name in a husky voice.
Ruka lifted her head at him in response.
“What’s wrong?”
