Ruka didn’t know that the door wasn’t tightly shut, and Victoria didn’t leave.

outside the door either. She held her cell phone in her hand as if she were answering the phone outside the door so that no one would think she was eavesdropping even if someone came over.

Seeing the caller ID on her cell phone’s screen, Ruka answered the phone with a smile. “Hello?”

“Elijah says you’re not in the office. Where are you?”

“Oh, I’m having dinner with Miss Parfait outside. Just tell Elijah to go back first might have to go back late, Ruka explained.

“Why would she treat you to dinner?”

“She’s probably feeling down. Don’t worry, I won’t tell her about our relationship, Ruka promised him while pursing her lips.

To her surprise, the man on the other end of the line replied in an easy manner. “It’s okay if you tell her about it.” Ruka felt her head buzz for a moment. No, I wouldn’t dare to say that!

Now I’m only too eager to hide everything that happened between him and me without telling anyone about it. Most importantly, even I myself find it unacceptable, so how can I go around telling people about it?

“Okay, call me after you’ve finished having dinner with her. I’ll have someone pick you up,” Ren said before hanging up. Ruka put down her phone and looked at the scenery outside the window.

Her cheeks were still burning somewhat, and the memory of him pinning her against the wall last night appeared involuntarily in her mind. Just the thought of it made her heart beat faster. Is there such an overbearing man?

And besides, it’s like he never gave me the opportunity to say no. It feels like I’m being forced to go out with him, but I’m not prepared for this at all!

Meanwhile, Victoria went to the washroom. She overheard what Ruka had said just now; Ruka said she wouldn’t go around telling anyone about her relationship with Ren. Obviously, this statement proved that their relationship was beyond the kind of relationship between men and women.

Could the rumors circulating in the office be true? They say that Ruka managed to get into the translation department by sleeping with some big shot. Could she have really done something like that? Did she get into the department by sleeping with Mr. Husson?

Victoria came in front of the mirror in the washroom. Seeing how her face twitched with jealousy, she felt extremely resentful. To think that another woman got her hands on the man of my dreams easily just like this!

She had worked very hard in the translation department over these years to become the head of the department despite her young age. What did she do all this for?

She did all this to chase after Ren because she wanted to become her best self to become worthy of him. All the effort she had put in over the past five years was only for his sake, for he was the sole purpose of her hard work.

Therefore, how could she resign herself to this? How could a girl pop up all of a sudden and steal him away? She was a woman who was eager to outdo others, so she wouldn’t allow herself to suffer such a humiliating defeat.

If she hadn’t taken advantage of her drunkenness last time, she wouldn’t have had the chance to hug him. She wasn’t that drunk the other night, but the feeling of hugging him lingered in her mind for the entire night.

She admitted that she was somewhat madly in love with Ren. Inwardly, she was already a person who was crazy for love. She clung to the washstand for support as tears of grievance welled up in her eyes. How hard do I have to work to draw his attention?

If Ruka hadn’t turned up, she wouldn’t mind waiting; she’d still have a chance, after all. But now, Ruka’s presence had erased all her efforts, and she stole Ren away so easily. Just what is Ren’s relationship with her? And when did he fall in love with her?

Victoria closed her eyes while shedding at tear of resentment. At this moment, her cell phone rang, and she picked it up and answered it. “Hello?”

“Miss Parfait, we’ve found something about the matter you asked me to look into. As long as you pay me on time, we’ll give you the information.”

“I’ll transfer the money to your bank account right away. Shoot.” Victoria was in a somewhat turbulent mood. The caller was an unlicensed detective that she had hired with a lot of money, and they were even more capable.

“Alright, I’ll tell you since I believe you won’t break your promise. Ruka Singed’s parents are close friends with Ren Husson’s sister and brother-in-law, so they get along very well. Ruka’s parents. worked abroad all year long, so they allowed Scarlet Husson to bring up their only daughter.

Ruka had grown up by Scarlet’s side since she was two years old until she was 16. Not only that, but I even found an old news report. Scarlet took Ruka to a party and introduced the latter on stage to declare her as her goddaughter. Therefore, Scarlet was considered a half mother to Ruka.”

Victoria’s eyes widened when she learned of this. She was shocked inwardly, but she also figured everything out. So, this was how Ren and Ruka got to know each other. Ren often stayed at Scarlet’s place when he was eight years old. His parents were too busy at work to care about him, so he also stayed at Scarlet’s place at the time.

Victoria’s lips curled into a bitter forced smile. She finally figured out what had happened, but it was an outcome that she found unacceptable for a time. Ruka’s relationship with Ren had begun not just several years ago; instead, they grew up together.

She narrowed her eyes in anguish. How could Ren fall in love with his sister’s goddaughter despite them being from different generations?

There are so many women for him to choose from. Why does he have to choose such a path to take on? Isn’t he worried that he’ll be affected during the next election? Hasn’t he thought about the risks in this regard?

To think that you’d also make a misstep, Ren Husson! She bit her lips with a sneer. Since I can’t get my hands on you, I won’t let you win her heart as you wish. Let’s suffer together! Let’s struggle in painful relationships. I mustn’t be the only one who can’t win the heart of the person I love. I want you to suffer with me.

When Victoria returned to the private room, the dishes had been served. Ruka looked back at her with a toothy grin, saying, “You’re back, Miss Parfait.”

A hint of jealousy flashed across Victoria’s mind, Ruka had a pure and kind air about her, as though she wasn’t scheming at all. She looked so wonderful that it made her envious.

How could a person have no desire? Isn’t she worried that someone else might steal Ren away? Or is she so confident of having him in her firm grasp? She’s supposed to have her own worries and troubles. Why does she seem so carefree?

Victoria could no longer go back to such days. As long as Ren didn’t love her, she’d always be gloomy. However, she’d soon let Ruka taste what it was like to be in fear -if the latter loved Ren enough. “Let’s eat and chat over dinner,” she said to Ruka before picking up the wine bottle and pouring a glass of wine for herself. After taking a sip of it, she said to Ruka earnestly, “Actually, Ruka, I know a little about you.”

Ruka paused for a moment before looking up at her. Victoria stared at her, saying, “You said you had grown up at your relative’s place since you were little. The relative you were referring to was Madam Falkner, right? Were you raised by her side when you were a child?”

Ruka’s eyes widened. How did Miss Parfait know about this? “So, your relationship with Ren is one between an elder and a member of the younger generation in the family. You have no idea that I was once jealous of you. Well, now it seems that I was overthinking it.

How could I possibly think that you and Ren were going out? You should call him something like ‘Mr. Ren, right?” Victoria fixed Ruka with a piercing gaze.

Ruka pursed her lips and lowered her head as a feeling of guilt welled up within her. When Victoria saw this, she was angry as well. Obviously, they’ve gone beyond such a relationship and are planning to become a couple instead of a family, huh? I’m not gonna allow it, though.

“Ruka, let me remind you something here. Do you know how sensitive Ren’s identity is right now? The whole world is watching his every move and everything he says, so he’s not allowed to make even the slightest mistake.

The outside world even cares about his relationships. She stared at Ruka threateningly as if wanting to imprint these words on the latter’s soul Ruka pursed her lips and nodded. T know that.

Victoria then continued, “So, for the sake of his future, you should know to avoid getting too close to him so that he can continue to take over the office, right? It’s okay that I know it. However, if someone else learns about it, you know how disastrous it’ll be for Ren. Also, the entire Husson Family will be affected.”

Ruka raised her eyes all of a sudden as she was shocked inwardly. Really? Will the matter be so serious?

Victoria knew that Ruka wouldn’t dare put the Husson Family’s future at risk. She was brought up by Scarlet, to whom she felt grateful, so she wouldn’t destroy the Husson Family’s footing because of her own feelings.

Taking another sip of wine, she said to Ruka, “I’m saying this to you because I love Ren. I don’t want anything wrong to happen to him, nor do I want him to fall from grace. Do you know how outstanding he is? He reached his position at such a young age. Many people can only look up to him.”

Ruka clenched her fists under the table. Of course, she wouldn’t do such things to hurt Ren and the Husson Family.
