Chapter 1139
Ruka‘s heart jumped. Seeing the large hand that was holding her hand, she retracted her hand in a fluster. “I–I‘m
going back to my room, then.” As long as the atmosphere became somewhat romantic, she‘d feel flustered and
panicky. Not knowing what to do. she had no choice but to flee first.
Ren‘s cell phone rang; he glanced at it before answering the phone. “Hello.”

“It‘s a female intern named Mia Murillo. She‘s also the one who turned off the main switch,” Elijah reported.
Ren‘s voice was frosty with a hint of anger. “Hand the evidence to the translation departmeni and get rid of her.”
“Roger that.”
After hanging up the phone, Ren stood up and cleared the table as swiftly and neatly as the way he usually did

Ruka took a shower and did some reading in bed before falling asleep in exhaustion. In the midst of her sleep, she
felt thirsty, for she had eaten too much of the steak just now.
She checked the time. Seeing that it was 1:12 AM, she got out of bed without bothering to change out of her
pajamas, thinking that Ren must‘ve gone to sleep at this hour. She opened the door and saw that the wall lights
were on in the hallway outside. The light was dim with a touch of coziness. She went downstairs, found a glass, and
went in the direction of the water dispenser before pouring a glass of warm water for herself and drinking from it.
After finishing the glass of water, she headed toward the stairs.

stepped out in a black silk night robe.
Ruka was also heading in the same direction on her way back to her room. As soon as she turned a corner, she saw
the man coming her way and was startled right away.
With that, the two ran into each other in the hallway.
