Richard suddenly softened. He was just hit by the sudden information. To him, one was his uncle, while the other was his motherâs adopted daughter. How could they have feelings for each other?
âIâm not blaming you.â Richard kissed her on the forehead soothingly and uttered, âBut donât talk about it anymore.â
âIf they are really in love with each other, will you help them?â Angela questioned directly, grabbing the collar of his shirt. âI donât think that Miss Liamson deserves to be your aunt-in-law.â
Richard agreed with her. He could tell from Sophieâs look earlier that she wasnât an innocent woman.
He could sense that she was having ideas about him earlier.
It wasnât that Richard was narcissistic, but he was sensitive by nature, so he could react fast and have insight into anything.
In conclusion, Sophie wasnât a good match for his uncle. He and Angela were in the same boat regarding this matter.
In the hall at the moment, Ruka kept her head lowered and her eyes at the time on the phone. One more minute to go and ten minutes would be up. Shouldnât she be going up to the third floor to meet Ren?
However, her heart was in a huge mess right now. She figured that she should go up and ask him if he already had someone in mind for his future wife. If it was true, she should cut off all thoughts and not get entangled with him.
Rukaâs heart hurt so much that she couldnât breathe properly at this moment. Now, she finally understood Victoriaâs crazy feelings for him. Falling in love with a man like Ren was a catastrophe.
Ruka couldnât stay here any longer. She was afraid that her mother would find her in pain, so she got up and said, âMom, Iâm going to the bathroom.â
Ruka went back to the side hall from earlier. There were stairs leading to the next floor, but every step she took along the stairs was as heavy as a thousand pounds. Step by step, she arrived at the third floor but she did not know where the study was. Therefore, she went to look for it along the corridor, and at that moment, she saw an open door and went in subconsciously.
