Chapter 1082 When
However, Ren was overwhelmed at the time–busy with his career, the election campaign, and the glory
of his family. He hadn’t the time to meet Ruka, so he could only return to the Husson Residence from
time to time. His sister, Scarlet, would always tell him about the pictures and videos Ruka had
uploaded. Not to mention, she had even told him which school Ruka had gotten into. Looking at the girl
in the photo, he felt his heart sink deeper and deeper into the pit known as love, as he was afraid to tell
another soul about this burning passion he had hidden away. It was only when she had drunkenly
kissed him that night did he come to realize he couldn’t back down and watch her slip away from his
side once more. He had to fight for her, even if at a cost.
Little later that night, Elijah had arranged for a set of clothes for Ruka. Upon opening the box, she
found a set of her pajamas, normal clothes, and another set that belonged to Ren. She became slightly
confused, as she wasn’t a very particular person, so it was acceptable for her to go one night without
taking a shower, especially since it was winter now. When Elijah entered the ward again, she requested
for a blanket since she planned to sleep on the big and wide couch tonight. To her, that couch was
enough. In no time, Elijah brought her a blanket while thinking that it was actually fine for her to sleep
with Ren in the same bed.
In the blink of an eye, it was already half past nine. Since Ren had left the ward to go through some
checkups, Ruka took the opportunity to take a shower and changed into her pajamas. Since the
pajamas were of a conservative design, they could also double as regular clothes.
When Ren returned to the ward, it was already slightly past ten. Following behind him, Elijah came in
and said, “Sir, please sleep early tonight. The doctor has said that you shouldn’t stay up so late.”
Ren turned his head slightly and glanced at Elijah. “I don’t want people disturbing my sleep unless it’s
something important.”
Naturally, Elijah understood what Ren meant, and he nodded. “Understood.”
Sitting on the couch, Ruka inexplicably became shy after hearing what Ren said. To her chagrin, she
thought to herself just why did she need to stay here and care for the man. This guy looks just fine, so
why did he have to make me embarrassed by insisting I stay here?
“Done washing up?” Ren took off his jacket and revealed a snug–fit turtleneck black sweater
underneath. As the sweater stuck close to his body, it showed just how well–built his body was. This
man had achieved the golden ratio for men’s bodies.
