After removing the cast, Richard felt his leg regaining its mobility as it was almost the same before the fracture. Still, the doctor advised him to walk less and not do any extreme sports.
Yet, the advice fell on deaf ears. In the afternoon, they went to a nearby restaurant before the man urged that he wanted to go home after the meal, stating that he was tired.
How could Angela not know what was on his mind? But, she still went along with his wishes and drove them back home.
Inside the elevator, she could feel the man radiating his pheromones, making her fear that she might be eaten whole.
As expected, she was blocked against the wall by the man the moment they entered the apartment.
Feeling her heartbeat rise, Angela looked up to see the man not kiss her, for he only looked at her gently with a loving gaze.
At such a close distance, she really could not withstand the tension. His sultry expression made her feel that she might sink deeper if she took one more look.
In actuality, Angela had been resisting her urge as well for the past few days. If not for his injuries, she would not hold herself back either.
Yet, just before the man kissed her, she stopped him. “Wait.”
“Hm?” The man was upset at being interrupted yet again.
“To the room.” She could not accept doing it in the living room.
Even though Richard could not hold on any longer, he still chose to go to the master bedroom out of respect for his significant other.
With the accompaniment of their assistant, Scarlet and her husband were waiting at the arrival terminal in Averna International Airport. Watching the people pour out from the airport, they finally found a woman with long hair in a black coat paired with jeans walking out with a suitcase.
However, the simple outfit could not hide her youthful aura as the surrounding crowd’s gazes were drawn to her. With fair skin and bright eyes paired with her luscious lips, nobody could divert their eyes away from her.
“Aunt Scarlet! Uncle Walter!” The woman immediately waved at them happily.
“Ruka.” Scarlet became teary-eyed. She had been by her side since Ruka was three years old as she raised her until she was sixteen, so she had treated her like her own daughter.
Walter also showed a gentle smile. This was the daughter of his closest friend, but due to work, they had to be abroad for long periods of time. Besides that, the country in question was a dangerous one, so they had to let Scarlet take care of Ruka for sixteen years.
Scarlet walked quickly and hugged Ruka before stating, “You’re even taller than me now.”
Hugging her, Ruka responded, “I missed you guys so much!”
“Us too. Looks like you get to live with us again this time.”
“Yup! I’m going to accompany you two and be a filial daughter.” Ruka truly loved them.
“Looks like we don’t have to worry about our lives in the future.” Scarlet smiled at her husband.
“You said it well.” Walter smiled happily.
The assistant carried the luggage to the car outside while Ruka and Scarlet were chatting. Even though she was already twenty-three years old, she still acted like a child when facing Scarlet.
“Ruka, I’ve contacted the translation department for you and they’ve given you a position as an intern. Take a break for now. You can have a look at it a few days later. You should grab hold of this chance to work at the department.”
