“Why didn’t she say anything? And I actually yelled at her.” Wait a minute. 1 don’t hear anything in her
room. She should have noticed the conversation and come downstairs by now.
“Ruka!” Claire shot up from the couch and made a dash for Ruka’s room.. Everyone else followed her.
Claire knocked on the door, “Ruka? It’s me. Open up.”
The door was locked from the inside. It couldn’t be opened, and they had a bad feeling about it. “Get
the keys! Ruka might be in danger!” Scarlet said.
Robert went and looked for the keys. Claire was tearing up in panic. “Ruka, open the door! I’m sorry! It
was a misunderstanding. Please, open up!”
“Ruka? It’s me, Scarlet. Let’s talk, alright? Don’t lock yourself up.”
Robert came back with the keys. Claire opened the door and went inside. Ruka was lying on the bed.
She might be asleep, but Claire thought otherwise.
Robert quickly went to the bed and held Ruka. He checked her breathing and told everyone, “Take her

Claire wobbled. The guilt almost made her pass out as well, but Scarlet held her. “We gotta take her to

passenger seat, while Claire got into the backseat. She held Ruka as they made their way to the
hospital.
“This is all my fault. I didn’t talk things through with her and went straight to the yelling. I even made her
swear she’d stay away from Ren. I should have tried to understand the situation better first.” Claire was
crying.
“It’s alright, Claire. Don’t cry. It’s not your fault.” Scarlet turned around.
They went to a nearby hospital, and Ruka was taken to the emergency room. Scarlet called Ren.
“Scarlet? What is it?”
“Ren, I need to tell you something, but promise me you’ll stay calm.” Scarlet was worried he might
come to the hospital. He can’t run around, not when he’s still the VP.
“Did something happen to Ruka?” Ren quickly asked.
“Well, Claire saw her kiss you back at lunch. She thought Ruka might be trying to date you for money,
so she scolded Ruka when they got home. The heartbreak got to Ruka, and she passed out. We’re at
the hospital-”
Before she could finish, Ren said, “Which hospital, sis?”
“You can’t come here, Ren,” she stopped him.
“Just tell me where you are, Scarlet,” he said adamantly.
Scarlet told him, and he hung up. She sighed. I can’t stop him. But she could see that he really loved

the blame. She knew her overreaction shocked Ruka.
A motorcade departed from the Husson Residence, and they were heading to a hospital in the town
area.
Elijah was right beside Ren. He unzipped a bag and unloaded the standard disguise for Ren-there was
a mask, a cap, and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. He usually used these on his outings.
“Why don’t you call Mrs. Husson and have her notify you once Miss Singed wakes up?” Elijah wasn’t
big on the idea of him going to crowded places like hospitals.
“It’s alright. I’ll be going in with just you and two bodyguards,” Ren said.
Four black off-road vehicles stopped by the roadside, and a black car went into the hospital’s car park.
Elijah opened the door, and out came Ren.
