âRuka, youâre here!â Angela called out, stepping out from behind the bushes. Sophie immediately turned to look at Angela. She had just threatened Ruka, so it was unpleasant to be disturbed like this.
At the same time, Ruka felt like her savior had arrived, so she breathed a sigh of relief while calling out, âAngela!â
Angela stretched out her hand to hold Ruka, then looked up at Sophie. âYou're here too? | forgot to introduce myself earlier. My name is Angela, the granddaughter-in-law of Mrs. Husson.â
When Sophie was in the hall just now, she had witnessed Angelaâs silent warning to her, so she didnât like her either. She smiled and greeted, âHello, Iâm Sophie.â
âRuka, they have prepared some refreshments over there. Letâs go over and have some!â After speaking, Angela didnât bother to invite Sophie. âMiss Liamson, please help yourself!â
Angela made good use of her advantage as a part of the Hussons. In this case, Angela was the official family member of the Hussons, while Sophie was nothing.
Sophie couldn't help clenching her teeth secretly. She secretly vowed to show her pride and trample Angela on her feet once she successfully became the mistress of the Husson Family.
On the other hand, Angela dragged Ruka out of the garden as they walked to a lounge in the center of the pavilion. Ruka pursed her lips, wondering whether Angela had overheard what Sophie said to her just now.
Angela was not someone who liked to hide things. She read Rukaâs concerned mind and decided to take the initiative to talk about it.
âRuka, | heard what Sophie said to you just now.â After Angela said that, she quickly comforted her, âDonât worry, though. Iâm on your side.â Ruka blinked in shock. âDid you... did you really hear everything?â
Angela held her hand and answered, âYes, | know everything, including the relationship between you and Uncle Ren. | know everything, but donât worry, | support your relationship.â
Rukaâs eyes widened in shock. Angelaâs words were like a test of her endurance. She knew everything but still supported them?
âWell, such an excellent man like Uncle Ren should be kept within the family. How could we allow someone like Sophie to obtain the benefits? You're at the appropriate age for marriage, and you're not blood-related to the Hussons. It makes sense that you two would want to be together. Donât fret about what others think.â
Ruka was stunned by Angelaâs words, but her heart was filled with gratitude and joy. Did someone finally think it was reasonable for her to be with Ren?
âThank you... Angela. Ruka took her hand, feeling the warmth of being supported. Angela burst out laughing. âShould | call you Aunt Ruka now?â
Ruka instantly blushed with her head lowered. At any rate, these generational issues were indeed messy. âL... She bit her red lips, so embarrassed that she didnât know what to say.
Angela stopped teasing Ruka and reached. out to hug her. âNo matter what our titles are, we'll decide on that when the time comes. Right now, the most important thing is that you guys are together. | promise that Richard and | will support you.â
Ruka felt anxious all of a sudden. âRichard...â
âAs long as Iâm on your side, he wouldnât dare to oppose me!â Angela huffed.
Ruka looked at her gratefully. Although Angelaâs words did not represent everyone elseâs opinions, her support was enough to warm her heart.
