Chapter 1203: Chapter 1203

I'm sorry. Richard. I-” “It’s not your fault,” he said gently.

He took her to a common room. Angela realized he was looking tense. Based on their conversation, she knew Ren’s relationship with Ruka was a big deal.

He’s giving the election up for Ruka. It’s unbelievable. However, Angela thought Ruka was lucky she had a man who loved her so much, he would make such a big sacrifice.

“Are you worried about Ren?” Angela cupped his face. She was worried about Richard. Richard sighed. “I’m worried about Grandpa and Grandma. They expect big things from Uncle Ren. This might crush them.”

‘Richard, do you love me? Would you give up your career for me?” she asked seriously, still holding his face.

He answered without any hesitation, “Of course.”

“What would you do if | were to be kidnapped, and they want you in exchange for me?”

Richard hugged her. For some reason, he was getting nervous. “I'll kill them if they try to do anything to you.”

Oh, wow. Angela realized that she was as lucky as Ruka was. Both of them met gentlemen who would give up everything for them. She smiled. “Now can you see why Uncle Ren is giving the election up for her? Because he loves her, just like you love me.

Richard was just too surprised by Ren’s decision, but now Angela made things clear for him. He sighed. “You're right.”

Angela looked at him. Richard was still frowning, and she pinched his brows. “Don’t fret over it. We'll help them if they need us.”

In the greenhouse, Charlotte was laughing at something Sophie said. Just then, a servant came in. “Miss Liamson? Miss Scarlet would like to talk to you.”

“Oh, sure.” Sophie got up and said goodbye to Charlotte, then she went with the servant. Right after she was gone, Ren came in and took the seat beside his mother.

“There’s something | want to tell you, Mom”

Charlotte took a sip of her tea. ‘Really? Why did you have to wait until she’s gone to bring that up?” Oh, finally. He’s bringing this up.

“Please stop inviting Miss Liamson over, Mom. | have someone | like,” he said..

Charlotte looked at him in surprise. “Really? Who’s the lady who caught your eye?”

“I'll introduce her to you guys in time.”

Oh, he’s finally bringing a girl home for dinner. Looks like the wedding’s coming soon. She nodded. “I'll be waiting then. I'll see to Miss Liamson in time.”

Ren nodded. “Sure. I'll be going back then.”

“| wanna see her as soon as possible. It'd be best if you can have your own kid next year,” Charlotte told Ren as he left the room.

Sophie was going to see Scarlet, but she ran into Angela, who was also making her way to where Scarlet was to spend some time with her, in the corridor. Even before they talked, tension was already rising in the air.

“Stop wasting your time on Ren, Missi Liamson. | heard what you told Ruka today. Back off if you know what's good for you,”

Angela warned.

Sophie held her anger back. She tried to be as nice as she could, and she said, “You took it the wrong way, Angela. It was for their own good. Yeah, they’re not related by blood, but Ren’s in a sensitive position. He can’t afford to get hit by any scandals.

The election is just around the corner. If someone finds out he’s in love with his sister’s goddaughter, it'd cause a whole slew of problems.”

“We don’t need any outsiders to tell us what to do. Mind your own business, Miss Liamson,” Angela retorted. She knew Sophie’s true colors, and it disgusted her.
