“No.” Ren loosened his tie. If he got out of the car now, he would only scare her, because she was now like a frightened bird and only thought about fleeing from him.

He could guess what Victoria had said to her, but Ruka was too young and had too many worries and doubts. Besides, the feelings between them weren’t strong enough to give her the courage to flock to him like a moth would to a flame.

Ruka, who had no idea that a certain man was watching everything she did at the moment, raised her head with a speechless expression and let out a few sighs before she turned toward a small tree next to her and began to grab the leaves as if she were venting her emotions.

When the man in the car saw her actions, the corners of his mouth raised into a smile. Is this the way she vents her emotions? How childish. It was only after Ruka had pulled out all the leaves in front of her that she returned to the private room.. Upon pushing the door open, she saw Victoria lying on the table and rushed over. “How are you feeling now, Miss Parfait?”

‘Ruka, I’ll take you home! I feel so dizzy.” Victoria did drink too much, and she felt rather terrible at the moment.

“Okay. Give me a second. I’ll take you home after I settle the bill.” Saying that, Ruka left to pay for their meal.

After she was done, she returned to the room and picked up Victoria’s bag. Then, she stretched out her hand to help Victoria get up. As Victoria was still able to walk, the two of them left with half of Victoria’s body leaning on Ruka’s body.

Ruka found it difficult to support Victoria, and because Victoria staggered as she walked, as soon as they left the restaurant gate and went to the parking lot, Ruka suddenly tripped over Victoria’s leg.

Before Ruka could scream, she collapsed onto the ground while holding onto Victoria. Instantly, she felt a severe pang of pain in her knees, probably because she had hurt her knees when she fell. Just when she was about to get up to help Victoria, she suddenly heard the sound of a car door, and she couldn’t help but look up.

Upon seeing a tall and handsome figure walking toward them against the light, Ruka felt her heart getting caught in her throat as her beautiful eyes widened. It’s him? Why is he here?

She suddenly recalled that there was a car parked here just now. Had he been in the car all the time? At that thought, she yearned to bury herself into a hole.

“Are you all right, Miss Parfait?” Elijah came over to help Victoria up. In front of Ruka, a large palm with distinct joints stretched out as Ren made to pull her up.

Stunned, she sat on the ground and looked at his outstretched palm. Then, without giving him her hand, she resolutely stood up by pushing herself off the ground, while Ren looked at her solemnly with an intense gaze.

Just then, two arms suddenly wrapped around Ren’s back. It was Victoria. She had sobered up. She pushed away Elijah’s hand to hug Ren without a single care in the world.

“Ren… You’re finally here… I waited so long for you…” Elijah frantically stood next to her and offered, “Miss Parfait, I’ll take you home!”

Ren’s eyebrows furrowed as he pried Victoria’s tightly clasped hands away with his large palm. He turned around and held her shoulders, not allowing her to get any closer to him.

“Victoria, you’re drunk. Go home and get some rest. His stern voice sounded.

“I don’t want to… I don’t want to go anywhere. I just want to hug you…” After speaking, Victoria struggled against his hands again, trying to fall back into his arms, but Elijah hurriedly stood in front of Ken. As Victoria had her eyes closed since the beginning, she didn’t realize that she was hugging Elijah’s waist. She even buried her face in his chest.

“Ren, I really like you. Can you not treat me so coldly Just as Ruka was watching the show from the side, a large and overbearing hand dragged her in the direction of the car.

She hurriedly turned her head and looked toward Elijah and Victoria with an inexplicable feeling of worry until she suddenly remembered that Victoria’s bag was still in her hands.

At that thought, she quickly broke away from Ren’s hand and delivered the bag to Elijah. Only then did she turn around and return to the car.

Ren personally opened the car door for her, and when she got in the car, she was about to look back when a low male voice sounded above her. “Why aren’t you going in?”

As Ruka was still in a daze, he became even more displeased. “What are you looking at?”

Then, Ren’s aggressive and large hand landed on the back of her head as he pushed her into the back seat irritably. As soon as Ruka sat down, he got inside as well and said to the bodyguard in the driver’s seat, “Drive.”

“What about Elijah?” Ruka asked worriedly. After all, it didn’t seem good to leave him alone to deal with a situation like this.

“He can handle it,” Ren replied indifferently. Clearly, he was a little jealous that Ruka was so concerned about his assistant.

He turned his head to look at her, and his long arm suddenly reached past her chest, shocking her. Then, when she saw the man pull the seat belt around her and fasten it, she felt her heart warm from the sense of security that he brought her.

Ruka pursed her lips and looked at the scenery outside the window. Suddenly, she thought of something and couldn’t help but turn her head to stare at the man next to her. “Were you in the car when I came out to answer your call just now?”

Ren narrowed his eyes. Then, he lightly nodded, not denying her words.

“You…” Ruka was immediately embarrassed. She recalled the way she had pulled the leaves out to vent her emotions. Had he witnessed everything? How shameful.

Furious, she turned away and looked out the window, but her face flushed red involuntarily.

He looked at her quietly for a few seconds. When his gaze fell on her hand that was resting on her knee, he naturally reached out and covered her hand with his.

Taken aback by his actions, Ruka instinctively tried to break away, but he held onto her slender hand bossily, not allowing her to do so. Her heart raced faster, but she didn’t dare to forcefully pull away. After all, there were two bodyguards sitting in front of her, and she still had to protect his pride as a vice president.

Hence, she ended up being held in his strong grip. As the heat of his palm pressed onto the back of her hand, it also spread into the depths of her heart. She felt as if she were hiding from the world and secretly carrying an emotion that was passionate yet unaccepted.

If he wasn’t a vice president and was just a regular businessman, or even working under any other profession, they wouldn’t need to consider what others thought before they did anything. However, with his distinguished background, any small stain on him would be amplified to the extreme.

Even if they were not related by blood, their relationship was still taboo solely because she was raised as a goddaughter by Scarlet’s side. If someone used this issue to blame him for being immoral, it could obliterate all of his achievements.

How could Ruka risk ruining everything he had? She was too unworthy and insignificant to destroy such an excellent man like him!

As she battled with herself, a layer of sweat had already formed in her palm. Thinking that it was a good opportunity to break away from his grasp, she pulled her hand away when he wasn’t noticing and pressed it to her chest, not giving him another chance to hold her again.

Ren’s gaze fell on her face, and there was a dull pain in his chest. This girl really was avoiding him.

Just then, the bodyguard drove the car into Ren’s villa, Ruka said to Ren, “Can I ask your bodyguard to take me to my friend’s house?”

Ren, who was about to get out of the car, froze for a moment before he turned his head and said, “They’re busy.”

“It’s just half an hour away,” Ruka pleaded.

“No. Now get out of the car.” Ren refused to let her leave.

Hence, Ruka got out of the car helplessly and watched as his bodyguard drove out of the iron gate while she stood in the empty garden in a daze.

When Ren took a few steps and realized that she wasn’t following him, he subconsciously looked back at her. Then, he turned around and stretched out his long arm to hold onto her wrist before leading her back to the direction of the hall.

For some reason, Ruka felt a gush of hurt wash over her. Her eyes stung with tears as she struggled against him. “Can’t you respect me for a moment?”
