Ren hummed, “Yes.” ;
As if worried that she would not dare to go up, Ren provoked her, “What? You don’t have the guts?”
Sure enough, Ruka couldn’t stand provocation, so she pouted and retorted, “Who said so?”
“Alright. I’ll see you upstairs, then.” After saying that, Ren went out through the backdoor. Avoiding the hall, he was oblivious to the fact that his mother had invited another girl.
When Ruka saw him leave, she was also worried that her parents would think that she was running around, so she, on the other hand, went back to the hall.
The moment Ruka walked into the hall, she noticed a fashionable girl sitting next to Old Madam Husson from the window. She was shocked for a few seconds before an assumption popped up.
Who could this lady be?
She then took a seat next to her mother. Claire, as expected, wondered where she went earlier. After she told her mother she went to the garden, Claire ordered her to not run around in a whisper.
“Mom, who is she?” Ruka asked her mother in a low voice, looking in Sophie’s direction.
Claire leaned in and whispered in her ear, “She is Mr. Husson’s future wife.”
Ruka’s breathing almost stopped. She looked at her mother, and then at the girl who was holding hands and chatting with Old Madam Husson, feeling her chest clench tightly.
Did he actually have a future wife recognized by the Husson Family?
Sophie just happened to look at Ruka with the same curiosity, because to her, any girl who appeared in Husson Residence today could be her enemy.
When the two exchanged glances, Ruka lowered her head guiltily because at this moment, in front of the elderly, Sophie was the one that everyone acknowledged as
Ren’s future wife.
Seeing that Old Madam Husson had been holding her hand, the intimacy and adoration were visible to the naked eye. Ruka felt that her heart was tightly grasped by a big palm, causing her to feel breathless. Why didn’t he tell her that he had a future wife who was acknowledged by the family?
Ruka couldn’t control herself and panicked a little. At first sight, Angela’s first impression of Sophie was that of a proud peacock. Sitting beside Old Madam Husson, she seemed a little arrogant. Due to that, Angela turned to glance at Ruka, who had her eyes lowered, seemingly in a bad mood.
Seeing Ruka’s expression, Angela was worried. If she was right, Sophie’s appearance must have hurt her. Even before, she didn’t dare to reveal her relationship. She must have felt even more distressed right now!
However, Angela couldn’t comfort her at this time. She then directed her gaze at her husband who was currently concerned about what she wanted to eat and drink.
“Let’s go. I have something to tell you.” She wanted to tell him about her discovery.
Richard didn’t like the gathering of the elders either, so he helped Angela up from the couch before leaving. Angela thereafter took him to the garden, where there were several reception rooms and tea rooms.
He was curious about what Angela was going to say to him. It was not until they entered the living room where no one was there that Angela put his arms around his waist, faced him, and leaned in to talk.
“I’m going to tell you a secret. Don’t be surprised,” Angela said to him.
“What secret?” Richard’s eyes flickered with curiosity.
Angela couldn’t help but make a hook gesture, urging, “Come closer.”
Richard wrapped his arm around her waist, leaned down, and brought his cars close to her lips. Angela whispered, “Have you noticed the look in Uncle Ren’s eyes when he’s watching Ruka? It doesn’t look like a normal gaze an elder would give to a junior.”
He didn’t understand, so he blinked and asked, “What do you mean?”
She leaned over and elaborated, “I feel that the way Uncle Ren looks at Ruka is just like the way you look at me. It’s a look of admiration between men and women.”
As soon as Angela finished speaking, Richard pulled her into his arms. He glanced around nervously while Angela stuck her head out of his arms, looking innocent. Looking at him, she insisted, “I’m pretty sure I’m right.”
Richard’s gaze locked on her as he warned hoarsely, “You can’t talk nonsense like
“I’m not.” Angcla felt aggrieved.
Richard suddenly softened. He was just hit by the sudden information. To him, one was his uncle, while the other was his mother’s adopted daughter. How could they have feelings for each other?
“I’m not blaming you.” Richard kissed her on the forehead soothingly and uttered, “But don’t talk about it anymore.”
“If they are really in love with each other, will you help them?” Angela questioned directly, grabbing the collar of his shirt. “I don’t think that Miss Liamson deserves to be your aunt-in-law.”
Richard agreed with her. He could tell from Sophie’s look earlier that she wasn’t an innocent woman. He could sense that she was having ideas about him earlier.
It wasn’t that Richard was narcissistic, but he was sensitive by nature, so he could react fast and have insight into anything.
In conclusion, Sophie wasn’t a good match for his uncle. He and Angela were in the same boat regarding this matter.
In the hall at the moment, Ruka kept her head lowered and her eyes at the time on the phone. One more minute to go and ten minutes would be up. Shouldn’t she be going up to the third floor to meet Ren?
However, her heart was in a huge mess right now. She figured that she should go up and ask him if he already had someone in mind for his future wife. If it was true, she should cut off all thoughts and not get entangled with him.
Ruka’s heart hurt so much that she couldn’t breathe properly at this moment. Now, she finally understood Victoria’s crazy feelings for him. Falling in love with a man like Ren was a catastrophe.
Ruka couldn’t stay here any longer. She was afraid that her mother would find her in pain, so she got up and said, “Mom, I’m going to the bathroom.”
Ruka went back to the side hall from earlier. There were stairs leading to the next floor, but every step she took along the stairs was as heavy as a thousand pounds. Step by step, she arrived at the third floor but she did not know where the study was. Therefore, she went to look for it along the corridor, and at that moment, she saw an open door and went in subconsciously.
As she smelled the scent of books, Ruka stood at the door and took a deep breath before stepping forward.
In front of the floor-to-ceiling window, Ren looked at the scenery outside the window with one hand in his trouser pocket, and it seemed like he had been waiting for her.
When he heard the footsteps behind him, he turned his head and reminded in a low voice, “Close the door.
Ruka turned around and did as told, but her mood had already changed. It was no longer sweet but filled with heaviness and sickness.
Ren noticed that her delicate little face had turned pale, so he narrowed his eyes slightly and stepped forward, asking, “What’s wrong? Did someone make you upset?”
When his arm came to hold her naturally, Ruka took a deep breath and hid her hand behind her back to avoid his touches.
“Do you have a chosen fiancéc? Why didn’t you tell me about her?” Ruka raised her head and questioned. At the same time, tears had pooled in her eyes.
Ren felt a sharp tug at his heartstrings as he looked into her misty eyes. When he saw her pained expression, he stretched out his long arms again to embrace her.
