Chapter 1267
As she smelled the scent of books, Ruka stood at the door and took a deep breath before stepping
forward.
In front of the floor-to-ceiling window, Ren looked at the scenery outside the window with one hand in
his trouser pocket, and it seemed like he had been waiting for her.
When he heard the footsteps behind him, he turned his head and reminded in a low voice, “Close the
door.
Ruka turned around and did as told, but her mood had already changed. It was no longer sweet but
filled with heaviness and sickness.
Ren noticed that her delicate little face had turned pale, so he narrowed his eyes slightly and stepped
forward, asking, “What’s wrong? Did someone make you upset?”
When his arm came to hold her naturally, Ruka took a deep breath and hid her hand behind her back to
avoid his touches.
“Do you have a chosen fiancéc? Why didn’t you tell me about her?” Ruka raised her head and
questioned. At the same time, tears had pooled in her eyes.
Ren felt a sharp tug at his heartstrings as he looked into her misty eyes. When he saw her pained
expression, he stretched out his long arms again to embrace her.
In response, Ruka stepped back, but Ren strode toward her and grabbed her shoulders before pulling
her into his embrace. He then pressed her head against his chest once more.
“Who told you that?” Ren inquired in a low voice. Had his mother mentioned it?
Ruka struggled in his arms and huffed angrily. “No one told me. Miss Liamson is already downstairs.”
Ren was stunned for a few seconds. He didn’t expect his mother to invite Sophie to their family dinner.
“She’s just a blind date my mother introduced to me, but I didn’t promise to make her my wife,” Ren
explained in a raspy voice and blamed himself for not making his intentions clear to his parents that
day. As such, Ruka had to suffer.
“Is that really the case?” Ruka raised her head and wiped away her tears cutely as if trying to see a
clearer version of his expression.
Ren sighed lightly and reached out to wipe her cars. “If I fell in love with others so easily, why would I
wait for you to grow up?
Ruka’s face flushed red again at this moment, and her heart fluttered.
