Chapter 1194
Ruka gasped slightly. Her eyes were filled with determination as she pursed her red lips. “I know you’re
someone in a high position, but you have no right to intrude on my freedom to be with who I want. I
have the right to like any person I wish, and that person isn’t you.” After she was done talking, she
decided to leave the place. Since she had decided to cut off the ambiguous relationship she had with
him, then she had to walk the talk.
Furthermore, Ruka had also taken into account what Victoria said to her. As the latter was madly in
love with Ren, Ruka couldn’t discount the possibility of her going crazy and dragging his name through
the mud out of resentment. As Ruka had treated him as one of her older relatives throughout her life,
the taboo feelings she felt only grew stronger. She never needed someone else to point out what was
wrong with their relationship, as she knew that the relationship between them wasn’t just unreasonable,
but it was also both unethical and immoral.
Looking at the girl who took her bag and was about to leave, Ren was like a lion who had instantly had
its strength cut off. Although he stood in an upright posture, his body was stiff, his eyes bleak. He
clenched his fists so tightly that the veins on his hands started to bulge. Just as the girl was about to
open the door, he cried out, “Ruka, don’t go.” Even if he was a powerful man standing on top of the
world, all that power and prestige meant nothing in the face of the girl, as just a few words from her was
enough to shatter his calm composure.
Ruka stopped in her tracks and had her will weakened upon hearing Ren’s voice that seemed as
though he was begging her. “What else do you want?” Ruka asked in a softer tone than before, but still
kept her back at him. “If there’s nothing else, then I’ll be staying over at my friend’s place tonight.”
“I do. I need you to stay here and take care of me. The man’s deep voice sounded.
“Not only are there so many nurses around, but there are even your men and bodyguards here. I’m
sure there are more than enough people here who will take good care of you,” Ruka retorted.
“The only person I want is you,” Ren replied with his voice turning hoarse at the end.
Just what does this man want from me? Ruka’s heart was in complete disarray.
Before Ruka could think of how to reject the man, Ren had passed her by, opened the door, and
shouted, “Elijah, come.”
Elijah instantly heeded Ren’s call as he appeared by the door. “Sir, what are your orders?”
“I want to go home. Settle the paperwork for me to be discharged,” said Ren.
“You mustn’t. The hospital director said you must be hospitalized overnight so that the hospital can
check on your condition.” Elijah immediately rejected Ren’s request.
