Chapter 1149
Victoria laughed at herself inwardly. She had become aggressive at work, as if she could no longer
travel back to the days when she was as young and ignorant as Ruka was. She wished she could also
be six years younger and meet the mature, steady, and protective Ren at the same age as Ruka did. If
that happened, would she stand a chance of becoming the apple of his eye?
After they arrived at the restaurant, Victoria introduced the place to Ruka. The restaurant rarely served
customers from the outside, so the customers here were all internal employees.
Ruka also understood the difference between the customers from the outside and those from the
inside. Ren would probably come to such a restaurant too, she thought.
Victoria asked for a private room and ordered some food. Then, she asked, “Ruka, can you drive?”
Ruka nodded. “Yes, I can. I have my driver‘s license.”
Great. I‘m feeling down today, so I‘d like to have a couple of drinks later. Remember to drive me home,
alright?” Victoria plcaded with her.
Ruka hurriedly advised, “Miss Parfait, you‘d better not drink too much alcohol. It‘s bad for your health.”
“It‘s okay. I can hold my liquor pretty well; I just want to drink a little to vent my emotions. Don‘t worry, I
won‘t act crazy after getting drunk.” Victoria smiled, “I‘m going to the washroom.”
Just when she was about to open the door, she heard Ruka‘s cell phone ring. She paused for a
moment, but after that, she naturally pushed the door open and left.
Ruka didn‘t know that the door wasn‘ı 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. I 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.
