Chapter 1281
I wonder if she’s in the greenhouse. Claire went to the greenhouse and heard sounds of conversation
coming from one of the rooms, so she approached it.
Ruka and Ren were inside the room. She was feeling better after that little counseling session Ren
gave her.
They were sitting face to face. Claire looked in and heaved a sigh of relief. I finally found her. So she
was meeting Ren.
Just when she was about to call out to her daughter, Ruka spread her arms and hugged Ren. She even
stood on tiptoes and kissed his cheek.
Claire’s eyes went wide with shock. What is she doing? She can’t do that to Ren!
She couldn’t see the look on Ren’s face, since his back was turned to her. However, she did see how
impertinent Ruka was, and then the girl actually smiled shyly.
Ren said, “I think we should head back now.”
“Sure.” Ruka nodded.
Claire thought her heart would burst from her chest. She quickly went to the garden in case Ruka and
Ren found out she was cavesdropping, even though she didn’t mean to eavesdrop.
Claire was trying to cool down with the breeze, but to no avail. I can’t believe she just kissed Ren! She
felt like she didn’t know her daughter. What Ruka did just crossed all the boundaries she set for Ruka
ever since Ruka was a child.
How did this happen? Where did I go wrong? She can’t kiss her own elder.
Her chest was heaving. Ruka’s gone too far, but I guess it’s my fault.
Every mother had great expectations for their children, including Claire. She didn’t need Ruka to be
successful or anything, but at least she had to be an upright lady.
