She wisely pushed all the responsibility to him. It was his fault for not telling her sooner that he liked
her! It was not her fault that she started liking someone else!
“If I recall correctly, you went to the movies with him, and you even got drunk because of him.” Ren
continued to probe her about her past as if she had been exceptionally close with other men before
this.
She quickly shook her head. “No, don’t get the wrong idea. We didn’t even hold hands!”

“Yes! Of course! I swear that the only man whose hand I’ve held is you,” Ruka declared. Ren got
jealous easily. She was afraid that he would be upset if she did not explain things properly.
“What about kissing?” he asked.
“You’re my first kiss! What more do you want from me?!” Ruka huffed. He smirked. “When did I become
your first kiss?”
“Well… That time when I was drunk, I kissed you in the car, didn’t I? That was my first kiss,” she replied
with a pout.
Ren’s towering figure loomed over her as he approached her. She was startled and stumbled back
down on the couch in fear that he was going to punish her for this.
However, her phone started ringing once more. It was Jethro again. Ruka silenced her phone before
glancing at Ren nervously. “He just went through a breakup and is just seeking comfort from a friend.”
“Answer it. Put it on speaker,” Ren said. Ruka blinked. Was he so kind-hearted that he thought she
should try and console Jethro? Either way, she did as told. “Hi, Jethro.”

“Ruka, I feel so bad right now. I don’t blame anybody but myself. Someone told me that you’ve had a
crush on me for a long time now. I’m such a fool for not noticing it sooner. Ruka, can you forgive me,
please? I really like you a lot. You’re so kind and beautiful. I’m kicking myself for not noticing your
feelings sooner…”
Ruka shrank back a little when she saw the grotesque expression on Ren’s face.. She wanted to end
the call at once to stop him from hearing Jethro’s confession.
Ren sat down on the couch and pulled Ruka into his arms before grabbing her phone. Then, with his
voice as cold as ice, he warned, “Ruka has a boyfriend. Don’t bother her ever again.”
