âDonât ever faint like that again, okay? You must remember that Iâll 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.
WWE minute. This is the hospital. Why are you here?â At last, it dawned on Ruka that a person Ulike him should not be here right now.
âItâs finc.â Ron assurce hici.
However, Ruka was not about to be as callous with his safety. She tried to push him away. âNo. you better leave now! Iâm fine. I donât want anything to happen to you. Go now, quickly.â
Ren grabbed her hand, âCome with me then.â
âWhere to?â
âYou can recuperate at my house.â
âNo, I canât. Iâ¦â 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 Scarlet told her. Why would Ren Husson, of all people, take a liking to her daughter? It was as if Ruka had won lifeâs lottery! If Ruka did marry Ren, she would have the prestige of being the Hussonsâ
daughter-in-law.
âIs this true, Scarlet? Is Ren truly in love with Ruka? Why does it feel like Iâm dreaming?â Claire exclaimed as she clasped her hand around Scarletâs.
âI couldnât believe my ears when I first heard about it too, but sometimes love happens when you least expect it. Since theyâre in love, we should just accept it and give them our blessing! My mother is very pleased with Ruka too. She hopes that once Renâs done with the general elections, we can start picking a date for Ren and Rukaâs wedding.â
âWill his marriage with Ruka affect him during the general elections? After all, a lot of people know that Ruka grew up with your family. Iâm afraid that others might use this information to cause a scandal for Ren. I wouldnât want this to ruin his future!â
