Suddenly, she realized that Ren’s face had become closer to hers. She was already sitting up against
him, so now they were nearly face-to-face. She didn’t have a good feeling about the whole thing and
was about to retreat, but he had already anticipated this. He placed a hand on the back of her head to
prevent her from moving away and then tugged her face towards his.
He kissed her aggressively as if he was punishing her for repeatedly defending a man that wasn’t him.
Her lashes fluttered against his cheeks as she panicked. They were in a moving car flanked by escort
motorcycles. Couldn’t he be more tactful?
Ruka’s worries were unfounded since they had heavily tinted the car windows to protect the
passengers’ privacy, so they were safe from prying eyes. Nevertheless, she could still see their
surroundings from inside the car.
This made her nerves prickle with anxiety, and she tried pushing him away. But, alas, he continued

Oh God, she must be going crazy. He had been the one determined to keep their relationship under
wraps, yet here he was, kissing her recklessly. Not to mention, his bodyguard was still in the driver’s
seat.
Ruka pushed against him harder, and eventually, Ren took pity on her and released her. He leaned his
forehead against hers, and his hot pants brushed against her face. “Do not fancy anyone other than
me.”
She was still dazed from the kiss and responded affectionately, “Okay!”
When he heard her immediate agreement, he smiled in satisfaction and glanced at his watch. “I’ve
spoiled your birthday celebration. I’ll make it up to you.”
It was the first time she had experienced such a grand exit, and she couldn’t help but feel respect for
the man. His societal position was such that they probably wouldn’t have met if she hadn’t grown up in
the Husson family. She glanced at the girls looking around by the street and knew that in a different life,
she would be as distant to him as they were now.
Ruka became unhappy at that thought. Life was so strange sometimes. A large hand then rested
against her cheek. She looked up at Ren, eyes damp with tears.
“What’s wrong?” Surprised by her sudden change in mood, Ren cupped her face with his hands
tenderly. She shook her head in response because she couldn’t share her thoughts with him. Besides,
she didn’t know why she had gotten so miserable either.
“I’m fine,” Ruka answered quietly. She wondered if Ren’s feelings for her were just a figment of her
imagination and would disappear sooner or later.
At this point, she suddenly understood why he was so crazy about her-if he had to leave her for any
reason, she would never fall for someone else ever again. Besides, no other man would ever steal her

dream.
Ren felt confused by this because he could sense her sadness, yet he didn’t know why she felt that
way. Did he do anything wrong? In the end, he could only pull her into a hug, allowing her to lean
against him and rest.
After they arrived back at his house, he got out of the car first. Then, he used one hand to protect her
head when she followed behind-an instinctive reaction borne out of his love for her. Soon, Elijah
approached him and whispered, “Mr. Husson, everything is ready.”
Ren nodded. “Thank you for your hard work.”
