Chapter 1294
Charlotte loved him the most ever since he was a kid. He could easily calm her when nobody else
could. His apology wiped out most of her anger, but still she shot him a glare. “You told me you have a
lady you like. It’s Ruka, isn’t it?”
Ren was surprised, but only for a moment. He nodded. “Yes, it is.”
“Why.” Charlotte felt her chest tightening up. “Are you trying to make everyone
mad: Out of all the women in this world, and you pick Ruka?”
Just like Ruka’s parents thought the fault lay with their daughter, Charlotte thought ühe fault lay with
Ren. She didn’t blame Ruka for this; she thought her son must have done something to make this
happen.
Ren caressed his mother’s back while calming her down. “It’s not what you think, Mom. We love each
other, Ruka and I.”
Charlotte let out another big sigh. “She’s your sister’s goddaughter. Can’t you at least stay away from
her?”
“But I thought you wanted me to marry someone.” Ren picked the exact conversation she would love to
have.
“Yeah, but you can’t just…” No matter how she looked at it, Charlotte was still miffed. She had watched
over Ruka ever since she was a child, and she used to come over to play really often. Charlotte
thought of her as a granddaughter, so this came as a shock for her.
Not to mention she was very conservative and traditional. Of course it was hard to accept a girl whom
she thought of as a granddaughter marrying her son. She shook her head and looked away. It was a
silent protest.
Her son held her in his embrace and rested his chin on her shoulders. He went with the ‘act like a child’
tactic. “I’m not gonna marry anyone but her. You refuse, and no grandkids for you.”
The last time he acted like a child was, well, back when he was a literal child asking for a candy. She
couldn’t believe her thirty-three year-old son would do the same thing again, but this time, he was
asking for a wife instead of a candy.
Charlotte couldn’t hold back anymore. She chuckled and turned back to thump her son. “You shouldn’t
threaten me, you know.”
