Chapter 1237
Ruka was worried about losing the diamond ring? Nah, obviously, she was terrified that somconc would
notice she was wearing a couple’s ring with him.
“Put the ring back on when you get home. If you lose it, we’ll get a new one,” the man demanded.
Ruka had no choice but to nod her licad. “Alright. I’ll put it on when I get home.”
The way Ruka responded caused Ren’s facial expression to soften subtly. However, he did not release
hier liand and instead grasped it in his palm. Her heart skipped a beat when he grabbed her hand, She
experienced a rapid heartbeat and flushed cheeks. In addition, she felt sparks fly from his gesturc.
“From now on, say goodnight to me before going to bed every night. Did you know that I was waiting
for your call last night?” Ren asked in a low voice. He could not fall asleep because she was not at his
home.
She was left speechless as she pondered, Does he really wait for my message? She did not send him
a message because she did not intend to bother him late at night.
“Okay, I’ll say good night to you before I go to bed.” Ruka nodded. Providing he does not find my
message bothersome.
“I’m going to get some work done now. You can rest by my side while I complete my work.” Ren did not
want to let her go, so he kept her close to him.
Anyway, Ruka was delighted to accompany him. She grabbed a book to read when she noticed a small
bookshelf in a corner.
Meanwhile, Victoria was in her office and having a bad day. She thought that when Ruka left, she
would feel better, but it seemed that Ruka’s sudden departure made her feel even more upset.
At that moment, there was a knock on the door, and she snapped, “Who is it?”
“Miss Parfait, Elijah is here,” the assistant said in a meticulous tone as she pushed open the door.
Victoria tensed up and took a deep breath. She said with a smile, “Please invite him inside.”
When Elijah entered the room, she could not contain her excitement. “What brings you here, Elijah?”
He looked at her calmly and said, “Miss Parfait, I’m here to relay a few words from Mr. Husson to you.”
“What does he say?” Victoria worriedly inquired. Does he know that I’m the one who made Ruka
leave?
“Miss Parfait, Mr. Husson would like to inform you that if you want your dad to retire comfortably and
enjoy his golden years, you’d better be careful and stop abusing your power to bully others. Elijah said
in a calm voice that belied the underlying threat in his words.
