With her eyes lowered, Ruka replied, “I’m not. Didn’t he just pass by the office just now?” “That’s right!
But, why was he here just now? Strange.” Michelle had a puzzled expression.
Soon, evening came and it was almost time for the employees to knock off. Ruka started to feel
anxious. She thought she needed to find a different place to stay, as she couldn’t intrude on Ren’s
place any longer.

Just as Ruka left the lobby with her bag in tow, a tall bodyguard by the side called out to her. “Miss
Singed, I am under Mr. Husson’s instructions to bring you home.
Startled, Ruka asked, “Bring me home?” “Yes.”

“Hello, Miss Singed.” The call got through rather quickly.
“Elijah, please tell Mr. Husson that I won’t be going home tonight,” Ruka said politely.
“Miss Singed, I also have some news for you.”

“Huh? He did?” Ruka widened her eyes in shock and asked hurriedly, “Did something happen to him?”
“His condition worsened, so he needed to be hospitalized.” Elijah answered before he continued, “If
you come and visit him, or maybe even take care of him for a while, I’m sure Sir would be very happy.”
“I…”
“He’s in a bad mood now.”
“I’m afraid it’ll only worsen his mood if I do.” Like a child who had just done something wrong, she bit
her lips and was afraid of going home.
