Chapter 1378
“Someone incited my father by telling him about Ren’s relationship with you on purpose. My father was
furious and hit Ren because of it. Since Ren is home with you, you should go and check if he’s injured.”
Ruka had a worried look on her face. “Okay, I will.”
“My father has always had a nasty temper. I feel bad for Ren. He’s a grown man now, but he still had to
take a beating on his knees.”
“What? He was beaten while kneeling?” Ruka felt incredibly sorry for Ren.
“Anyway, you should check and see if he’s injured. My father’s no longer angry now, and he’s fine with
the relationship, so I guess it ended on a good note.”
“Alright. I’ll go and see if he’s back.” Ruka peered out the French window and saw Ren’s car, so she
quickly said, “He’s back. I’ll go and check on him.”
“Okay. Go ahead!” Scarlet ended the call.
Ruka rushed down the stairs and saw Ren and Silas stepping out of one of the spare rooms. “Why are
you here, Dr. Silas?” she exclaimed.
Her eyes flickered over to Ren.
Silas cleared his throat and said with a smile, “I’m just here for lunch.”
However, Ruka was not to be fooled. If Dr. Silas came here right after Ren took a beating, it means the
wound must have split again! She sighed as her heart ached for him.
Was he trying to hide it from her just so that she would not worry about him?
Well, he did take a beating. Ruka bit her lip and decided against bringing it up for the sake of his
dignity.
Silas left after lunch and Ruka held Ren’s arm as they went upstairs to rest. Ren looked perfectly
normal despite taking a beating, and he was doing his best to keep it from her. Thus, she felt like he
was being a stubborn child right now.
It seemed as if age no longer came between them. He loved her and she loved him. They were equals
in the relationship and equals in love.
“I’ll stay
with you for a while.” Ruka dragged Ren back to his bedroom. For the past few days, she had stayed
away to ensure that she did not disrupt his recovery process in any way, even though she wanted to
sleep in his arms each night.
Today was an exception as she wanted to comfort him after all that he went through.
“Okay!” Ren nodded. Ruka was being a lot sweeter than usual.
It was making his yearning for her grow, but thanks to his wound being aggravated time and time again,
his frustration kept growing too.
