Still, before he closed his eyes, he gently kissed her forehead again. “Happy birthday, Ruka.”

The next morning, as the sun shone through the window, Ruka was the first to wake up and was

startled to find herself sleeping in Ren’s arms. His handsome face was right in front of hers, a couple of

inches away.

Being able to look at him up close took her breath away. He had such healthy, glowing skin and did not

look like he was over 30 years old at all. His firm skin, prominent features, and thick curly lashes that

cast shadows upon his face made him wholly captivating.

Her gaze inadvertently landed on his lips. She felt parched the moment she recalled last night’s

passionate kiss that made her head spin.

She dared not wake him up because she did not know when he went to sleep. Hence, she slowly and

carefully extracted herself from his embrace and got out of bed. As she checked the time, she covered

her mouth in shock. It was 9.30AM. She had been sleeping for far too long.

Thus, she hurriedly opened the door and surprisingly found Elijah, the doctor, and the nurse waiting

outside. She could not help but blush as Elijah inquired her about Ren. “Is Sir awake?”

“He’s still sleeping,” Ruka answered.

“Okay. You might want to go next door to have breakfast, Miss Singed. We can let him sleep longer,”

Elijah suggested. While eating, she received a call from her friend, Rita. Rita remembered her birthday

and decided to treat her to a celebration meal.

Ruka was delighted to accept her invitation since her parents were not by her side. Scarlet and Walter

were out of the country, too. Therefore, it would be an understatement to say that she would be more

than happy to spend the day with her good friend. “Where are you?” “I’m at the hospital.”

“You’re sick?!” “No, I’m just here to take care of someone.” Ruka did not dare reveal who it was.

“Oh, okay. We’ll meet at the mall’s entrance at 10.30AM. “Sure.”

After they decided when to meet, Ruka looked for Elijah and asked if there was anyone who could give

her a ride. When Elijah heard of her plans, he immediately. arranged for a bodyguard to escort her.

Afterward, she went back to the room and grabbed her purse. As she laid her eyes on the man, still

deep in slumber, she left without saying goodbye.

morning. Thus, he sat forbiddingly on the couch while the medical staff fussed over him. As a result, it

“Did she say where she’s going?” Ren gave Elijah a side-eye. “Miss Singed only said she’s meeting a

friend.”

“Guy or girl?”

“I didn’t ask, but I think it’s a girl.” Elijah smiled. After what happened last night, he did not think there

was anything else Ren needed to worry about.

Although he dared not speculate what happened, he had a good guess based on Ruka’s flushed face

in the morning.

At that moment, Ren’s phone rang. He took a look and picked it up. “Hi, Scarlet.” “Ren! It’s Ruka’s

birthday today. Can you arrange something to celebrate with her? Unfortunately, we’re not in the

country. So, you’ll have to do it in our place.”

“Don’t worry. I’ll make the arrangements.”
