Night of Destiny ( Anastasia Tillman ) novel Chapter 1149

Even if i was pretty when I was a kid, I’m sure it’ll be a different story for you if I grew up to be an ugly girl, right?” Ren laughed soundlessly at Ruka’s question. ‘Are you that confident that you’re pretty now?”

Feeling her cheeks growing warmer, Ruka retorted, “If I wasn’t, I’m sure you wouldn’t have liked me.” Ren locked his gaze at Ruka upon her words and shook his head. “I fell for you not only because of your looks.” In brief, the feelings he had for her were out of his control. Back when she was nineteen, she had returned to visit her relatives.

He was in the garden when she had just gotten out of the car. Even though he was already planning to leave at the time, he couldn’t do so, as he was engrossed in. looking at how innocent she was.

It was then he realized the feelings he had for her weren’t the same kind he had when she was still a child, but it was the same kind one would have for another adult. She had held a small place in his heart until it was gradually fully filled by her.

However, Ren was overwhelmed at the time-busy with his career, the election campaign, and the glory of his family. He hadn’t the time to meet Ruka, so he could only return to the Husson Residence from time to time. His sister, Scarlet, would always tell him about the pictures. and videos Ruka had uploaded.

Not to mention, she had even told him which school Ruka had gotten into. Looking at the girl in the photo, he felt his heart sink deeper and deeper into the pit known as love, as he was afraid to tell another soul about this burning passion he had hidden away.

When Ren returned to the ward, it was already slightly past ten. Following behind him, Elijah came in and said, “Sir, please sleep early tonight. The doctor has said that you shouldn’t stay up so late.”

Ren turned his head slightly and glanced at Elijah. “I don’t want people disturbing my sleep unless it’s something important.”

Naturally, Elijah understood what Ren meant, and he nodded. “Understood.”
