Ren sighed once again. He stroked her back to comfort her and kissed her on the forehead. “Why
didn’t you tell her that I’m the one who chased you?” Ren chided hoarsely.
“What makes you think I’d dare to? If I did say that, my mother would’ve said that I must have gone
mad for being so full of myself! Mr. Vice President wouldn’t possibly take a liking to me, not even if he
were blind!” Ruka huffed. He rapped her head with his chin. “Who are you calling blind?”
Ruka giggled. Two hours ago, she felt nothing but despair, but now, she was drowning in bliss. “Hang
on. Does Aunt Scarlet know that you’re here to see me? What about your parents? Does everyone
know?” Ruka clutched his shirt and fired off question after question.
“Everyone who needs to know does know by now, except for my father.” Then, Ren added. “Relax. My
family supports our relationship. Ruka’s complexion was a little pale earlier, but now it was bright red.
All of them know about it and they’re showing us support too?
“I’m certain your parents will give us their blessing too, or otherwise, it’s hard to imagine how sad their
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtdaughter would be if she couldn’t marry me!” Ren commented with a smile.
Ruka pouted and punched him in the chest. “You’re teasing me!”
She was already embarrassed enough for fainting because she thought she could not be with him.
He grabbed her hand and pressed it against his chest. His voice was serious and full of love as he
said, “I’m not teasing you, Ruka. Words can’t express how happy I am that you love me so.”
Ruka’s face turned even redder, but she wrapped her arms around his waist. “You better remember
that.”
Ren stroked her hair and said, “We will never be apart again, not now, not ever.” It’s a promise. “Okay.
We’ll never be apart,” Ruka agreed with a nod without hesitation. “Ruka…”
“Hm?” She looked up at him. “Don’t ever faint like that again, okay? You must remember that I’ll always
be by your side no matter what happens.” Ren was afraid that if another misunderstanding cropped up,
she would faint out of sadness or despair once more. It would break his heart if she did.
Ruka looked into his deep, brooding eyes and smiled. She feared nothing now since he said he would
always be with her.
Still, she was vexed at herself for proving her love for him by fainting. What a foolish thing to do.
“Wait a minute. This is the hospital. Why are you here?” At last, it dawned on Ruka that a person like
him should not be here right now. “It’s fine,” Ren assured her.
However, Ruka was not about to be as callous with his safety. She tried to push him away. “No, you
better leave now! I’m fine. I don’t want anything to happen to you. Go now, quickly.”
Ren grabbed her hand. “Come with me then.” “Where to?”
“You can recuperate at my house.”
“No, I can’t. I…” Ruka blushed. She felt a little bashful about staying with him. However, Ren was
adamant. After all, he was certain that she was the one for him. He wanted to take care of her and he
knew that her parents would be fine with it.
He would beg them if he had to.
Meanwhile, in a waiting room nearby. Claire was both amazed and disbelieving when she heard what
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmScarlet told her.
Why would Ren Husson, of all people. take a liking to her daughter? It was as if Ruka had won life’s
lottery! If Ruka did marry Ren, she would have the prestige of being the Hussons’ daughter-in-law.
“Is this true, Scarlet? Is Ren truly in love with Ruka? Why does it feel like I’m dreaming?” Claire
exclaimed as she clasped her hand around Scarlet’s.
“I couldn’t believe my ears when I first heard about it too, but sometimes love happens when you least
expect it. Since they’re in love, we should just accept it and give them our blessing! My mother is very
pleased with Ruka too. She hopes that once Ren’s done with the general elections, we can start
picking a date for Ren and Ruka’s wedding.”
“Will his marriage with Ruka affect him during the general elections? After all, a lot of people know that
Ruka grew up with your family. I’m afraid that others might use this information to cause a scandal for
Ren. I wouldn’t want this to ruin his future!”
