Chapter 1326
When Ruka heard what he said, she surmised that he wanted to have dinner with her and quickly said,
“No, it’s fine. Work is more important. I’m okay with eating dinner by myself.”
“Yes, Sir. I’ll clear your schedule for dinner,” Elijah replied.
Ruka turned to Ren. “You don’t need to accompany me, really. You have a lot of work to do right now. I
totally understand.”
“Miss Singed, you don’t need to try and convince him. You’re the most important person to him, so
work can wait,” Elijah said with a chuckle.
Ruka turned to the side and locked gazes with a pair of mirthful eyes. Even she could the affection in
them.

She smiled shyly. “Alright! I’ll wait for you to come home for dinner.”
After seeing Ren off, Ruka took her phone and went out to the balcony to give her parents a call.
Claire could not hide the emotion in her voice as she asked, “Ruka, is Ren treating you alright?”
“He’s very good to me, Mom. You don’t have to worry!”
“There’s nothing for me to worry about, of course. You silly girl, you should have told us from the start
and we wouldn’t have scolded you.”
“I’m sorry, Mom. It’s my fault.” Ruka felt bad for scaring her mother like that.
“It’s fine. Everything’s in the past now. All we have to do now is wait until the elections are over, and
then you and Ren can get married! Your father and I have been wondering what we did in our past lives
that gave us the fortune of having our daughter marry such a great man.”
Ruka did not know whether to laugh or cry. She could understand why her parents were so excited as
she too had felt like she had struck gold when she found out that Ren liked her. However, while it did
feel like a dream back then, she had come to accept it with time. All she wanted to do now was to
improve herself and become a better person who could stand shoulder
to shoulder with him.
Being the one that Ren chose to spend the rest of his life with came with a lot of added pressure. Ruka
dared not even consider the thought of wasting her life away. While she looked forward to being doted
on by him, she was determined to give it her all too!
