Ren smirked at how far away she stood. He narrowed his eyes and asked, “Are you afraid that I’d eat
you first?” Isn’t that just a matter of time now? Even I can tell that much, she thought.
“Come on, let’s go down and eat,” Ruka urged once again. No matter how busy he was, he should still
remember to take care of himself.
Ren’s smile deepened at the thought of having someone to keep an eye on him to make sure he took
his meals on time. It did not feel bad at all to have someone who looked out for you. It was a blessing,
and it made him feel warm inside.
“Okay.” Ren came over to her, and they left his study hand-in-hand. At Grady Residence.
A white car came to a stop out front and a woman stepped out from the driver’s seat. She was dressed

waiting for her.
“It’s great to see you, Miss Parfait.”
“Hello, Mr. Grady. I’m here to report something to you.” “Please take a seat.” The man gestured politely
toward the couch.
Victoria’s eyes were filled with hatred. Her jaw was tightly clenched as she stated, “I’m here to inform
you that the current vice president, Ren Husson is in a relationship with his sister’s adopted daughter.
A man like him does not deserve to be the vice president.”
“You seem to despise Ren Husson a lot, Miss Parfait.”
“I used to be in love with him, but he hurt me deeply with his heartlessness. I’m not going to hold back
either. I know that you’re interested in being the vice president, so I hope this piece of information will
be of use to you.”
Orson Grady remained in silent thought for a few seconds before nodding. “Thank you for sharing this
with me, Miss Parfait. It is indeed of great use to me. What would you like me to do in return?”
“Destroy him. That’ll be the best thing you can do for me.” Victoria’s eyes flashed with hatred and
resentment. “I will do my best to grant your request,” Orson replied before signaling to his subordinate.
“Please see Miss Parfait out.”
Victoria drove out of Grady Residence and came to a stop at a street light. Her hands curled tightly
around the steering wheels. Hatred continued to swirl in her eyes.
Ever since Ren’s assistant delivered the warning to her, she had not been able to focus on her work.

position, she was still determined to not let him carry on for another term as vice president. Thus, she
had to do whatever was within her means to achieve her goal.
What she could do was let his political rivals know about his relationship with Ruka. That would surely
aid them in causing obstacles for Ren and weaken his chances during the general election.
Back at the Vice President’s Residence. The servants wisely left the dining room and allowed the
couple to enjoy a romantic dinner together.
Ruka was starving. She had not eaten much during lunch and had suffered through her mother’s
scolding afterward, followed by her anguish and eventual fainting spell. All in all, she was famished.
and was looking forward to digging into the feast that covered the entire dining table.
“Everything tastes amazing!” Ruka munched away in great satisfaction.
