Meanwhile, in one of the lounges of the Translation Department. After the guests were served tea, Ren came out with his phone and said to Elijah, “Bring me to her office.”
After Elijah asked one of the nearby employees, the said employee showed them to Ren’s desired destination, to which the latter followed as he took a step forward.
It was at this time that Ruka just came back from the restroom. Upon opening the door to the internship office, she found Caspian reading a book inside. The moment the latter saw how pale she looked, he stood up in a hurry and said, “Ruka, are you okay?”
Slightly dumbfounded, she casually took a seat by the door before she shook her head. “I’m fine.”
“You don’t look so good.” Caspian brought her mug and gave it to her. “Here, drink some water.”
As Ruka took a sip of water, Caspian’s eyes lit up with hints of shyness. He then went back to his desk and took out a beautifully wrapped box from the drawer before walking back to her. “Ruka, this is for you.”
Surprised by the gift, she immediately stood up. “Caspian, what are you…”
“It’s your birthday present. I’m not sure if it’ll be to your liking,” Caspian explained while bashfully touching his head. “Open it. See if you like it.”
Upon Caspian’s words, Ruka was both confused and grateful. However, as she had forgotten to close the office door, there was a tall attractive figure standing just outside. The man did not enter the office, but merely stood outside and watched Caspian shyly handing Ruka a gift.
“It’s just a small token of appreciation, so just accept it.” Caspian was determined in handing his gift to Ruka.
How long has he been standing by the door? Although there was a door between them, Ruka could feel Ren’s fervent gaze on her, as though he was displaying his irritation at her.
Caspian was startled as well since he hadn’t expected the vice president to be standing by the door. Just as he excitedly looked at him, he was met with an authoritative gaze, one that gave him chills, as Ren looked at him with a cold expression.
After a brief second, Ren left. Following his departure, Inara and Michelle cried. out in excitement.
“Oh my God! We got to see him up close! If we knew that he would be here, why did we even bother to go outside?!”
“So handsome. Who can resist such an attractive man?!”
