Chapter 1199
Just as Ren went to get a cup of water, Ruka couldn’t help staring at the man’s body. It’s no wonder Victoria is
madly in love with him. Not only was he competent and talented, but he was good looking and well–built as well.
Unsure whether she should feel sorry for Victoria, she prayed for the latter to move past her obsession with the
man and not torture herself like that ever again. Under the room light, she went into a daze with a book in her

Ren sat down and saw through Ruka’s thoughts. With a smile, he asked, “What’s wrong? Do you dislike the cup I
used?”
Ruka acted naturally and intentionally took two more sips. “Nope.”
Satisfied, Ren picked up a book beside him and started reading beside Ruka. The latter then put down the cup in her
hand and asked curiously, “How did the checkup on your heart go?”
“Normal,” Ren replied with his eyes never leaving the book.
“Does that mean your heart problems have something to do with me? Was it because of what I’d said previously?”
Ruka looked at Ren with a remorseful expression.
Ren had to admit that his ever–healthy heart actually had symptoms of arrhythmia just because of a few words
from Ruka, so he sighed and said, “Yeah. It was.”
Unable to stop feeling remorseful, she said, “How am I that important to you?”
With his brows raised, the man looked over to Ruka. “Does my feelings for you give you pressure?”
However, Ruka couldn’t deny that it was so. Not only that, but the stress was just as huge as a mountain that was
suffocating her. She turned her head and stared deep into his eyes before she nodded. “Yes, it does. A lot of it.”

Ren put down the book in his hand before he reached out and held Ruka in his arms, causing her body to turn stiff
briefly. With how strong the man was, even if she was some distance away from him, he would still be able to drag
her into his arms.
