Chapter 1118
Ren seemed quite affable and easy to get along with at Husson Residence, and she had seen him in
the garden when he was working. He had a superior attitude and exuded a prestigious aura. However,
after interacting with him personally in private. she felt that he seemed pretty schemeful and hard to
predict. Besides, he made one feel quite pressured.
“Do you wish to go home?” He had just taken a few steps up the stairs when he suddenly turned
around to look at her.
“I feel like I might have been disruptive,” Ruka expressed herself quite frankly.

quickly went after him. “I thought they were supposed to be on standby 24/7? They would definitely
send me home if you gave them the word.”
They had just arrived at the foyer when Ruka ran over in haste while he stood still and turned around to
look at her. At that moment, they collided slightly with each other.
“Ah…” Ruka leaned backward out of fright, and it was the staircase behind her, so it would be quite a
nasty fall for her if she actually toppled down the stairs.
Ruka reached out to grasp at something out of desperation, and Ren‘s eyes suddenly widened as he
quickly reached out to grab her wrist. Subsequently, he pulled her back toward him, and shortly after
that, he held her tightly in his arms. During that spur of the moment of worry, he grabbed the back of
her head with his large hands, and after rescuing her, he gave her a tight hug.
Ruka hugged him tightly around the waist as well, out of fright, and her heart thudded hard. She felt as
if she had just barely escaped death, so she was quite pleasantly shocked, and yet the fear lingered on
too.
“Why did you run after me in such a rush at a staircase?” There was an anxious, chiding voice that
rang out above her head.

that moment, she couldn‘t help but breathe irregularly.
She was currently quite flustered as she tried to say something, but she couldn‘t seem to come up with
a full sentence in her mind due to the messy thoughts she had. Furthermore, their current hugging
position felt quite intimate.
In Ren‘s arms, Ruka opened and shut her red lips repeatedly as she tried to come up with the words to
say. As soon as Ren saw that, he couldn‘t quite suppress his urge.
He felt his throat tighten and the look in his eyes darkened significantly.
At that moment, Ruka was quite anxious too. Why is he hugging me so tightly? Just then, Ruka was
about to lift her head when her eyes were met with a pair of dangerous looking eyes. That didn‘t seem
like the look an elder would reveal to a younger member of his family. It was the primal look of a man
studying a woman.
