Chapter 1311
Ruka’s blush extended all the way to her ears as she followed him to the elevator.
The hospital elevators were long and rectangular. Despite being rather large, it became quite crowded
by the time they got to the third floor. Elijah and the two bodyguards stood protectively in front of them,
while Ruka and Ren were stuck together. She nestled into him and he wrapped his arms around her
waist.
Once they arrived on the first floor, Ren continued to walk hand-in-hand with Ruka as he led her out to
the hospital lobby. She felt a lot of envious and wistful stares from others. Although the man beside her
was wearing a mask, it did nothing to hide his innate aura of dominance.
Even though the passersby could not see his face, they could tell from his distinguished air alone that
he was no ordinary man.
Elijah and the two bodyguards remained vigilant and only exhaled in relief once the two entered the
car.
The atmosphere inside the car was quiet and serene, in stark contrast to the bustle they had just
walked through. Ruka felt the hand around her waist tightening as its owner pulled her closer. She
scooted over and settled into the middle of the backseat, and he helped her with the seatbelt.
Ruka lifted her head a little and his lips brushed across her forehead. A smile danced in his eyes as he
asked, “Are you happy, Ruka?”
“Yeah.” She held his arm and rested her head against his shoulder. “I’m very happy.”
They set off for Ren’s place. Ruka was exhausted after the sequence of events that took place
throughout the day, so she leaned against Ren and fell asleep.
Ren held her close and used his coat to tuck her securely against him. The warmth that emanated from
him lulled Ruka to sleep.
He had the car drive up to the front entrance of his residence, and once the driver opened the car door
for him, he carried Ruka down. She stirred awake from the motion, and when she saw how he carried
her into the hall, she was so embarrassed that she buried her head in his arms.
