Chapter 1232
Ruka exhaled slowly. She had made up her mind, and even though she really wanted to stay in the
Translation Department, she knew that she had to earn herself a place by taking the entry assessment
the next time the department was hiring. Victoria would never let the matter of her getting in through
connections rest otherwise.
More importantly, her decision to quit the internship was to keep anyone from accusing Ren of abusing
his power.
Caspian noticed Ruka packing up her things and asked anxiously, “What are you doing. Ruka?”
She smiled and said, “I hope you’ll make your mark here, Caspian. I have to leave because of, well,
personal reasons.”
“Will we see each other again?” he pressed, standing up. He had every intention to pursue her
romantically, and he didn’t want to miss out on her.
“I guess that’s up to fate, huh?” Ruka flashed him a grin, then waved goodbye to everyone as she said,
“Bye, everyone.”
Inara and Michele looked decidedly cheerful to see that she was leaving, and their tones were
considerably warmer as they sang, “Goodbye!”
Ruka slung her bag over her shoulder and made her way over to Victoria’s office. She knocked on her
door, and heard Victoria say, “Come in.”
Ruka did just that, and when Victoria saw her standing there with her bag, she immediately realized
what was going on. “Leaving already?” she asked, raising a brow.
“That’s right,” Ruka answered unaffectedly, but her tone was firm. “But I’ll try my luck to get in next year
if the opportunity presents itself.”
Victoria smirked. “I’m going to be frank with you, Ruka. For as long as I’m here, you’ll never get into the
Translation Department.”
Instead of getting angry, Ruka merely said patiently, “You know, Miss Parfait, I’m going to leave you
some sage advice before I walk out of here-stop wasting your youth by trying to force someone to love
you because that will never happen.”
A dark look passed over Victoria’s face as she seethed, “What gives you the right to tell me that,
Ruka?”
