“Are you all right, Miss Parfait?” Elijah came over to help Victoria up. In front of Ruka, a large palm with distinct joints stretched out as Ren made to pull her up.
Stunned, she sat on the ground and looked at his outstretched palm. Then, without giving him her hand, she resolutely stood up by pushing herself off the ground, while Ren looked at her solemnly with an intense gaze.
Just then, two arms suddenly wrapped around Ren’s back. It was Victoria. She had sobered up. She pushed away Elijah’s hand to hug Ren without a single care in the world.
“Ren… You’re finally here… I waited so long for you…” Elijah frantically stood next to her and offered, “Miss Parfait, I’ll take you home!”
Ren’s eyebrows furrowed as he pried Victoria’s tightly clasped hands away with his large palm. He turned around and held her shoulders, not allowing her to get any closer to him.
“Victoria, you’re drunk. Go home and get some rest. His stern voice sounded.
“I don’t want to… I don’t want to go anywhere. I just want to hug you…” After speaking, Victoria struggled against his hands again, trying to fall back into his arms, but Elijah hurriedly stood in front of Ken. As Victoria had her eyes closed since the beginning, she didn’t realize that she was hugging Elijah’s waist. She even buried her face in his chest.
As Ruka was still in a daze, he became even more displeased. “What are you looking at?”
Then, Ren’s aggressive and large hand landed on the back of her head as he pushed her into the back seat irritably. As soon as Ruka sat down, he got inside as well and said to the bodyguard in the driver’s seat, “Drive.”
“What about Elijah?” Ruka asked worriedly. After all, it didn’t seem good to leave him alone to deal with a situation like this.
