As if worried that she would not dare to go up, Ren provoked her, “What? You don’t have the guts?”
Sure enough, Ruka couldn’t stand provocation, so she pouted and retorted, “Who said so?”
“Alright. I’ll see you upstairs, then.” After saying that, Ren went out through the backdoor. Avoiding the hall, he was oblivious to the fact that his mother had invited another girl.
When Ruka saw him leave, she was also worried that her parents would think that she was running around, so she, on the other hand, went back to the hall.
The moment Ruka walked into the hall, she noticed a fashionable girl sitting next to Old Madam Husson from the window. She was shocked for a few seconds before an assumption popped up.
Who could this lady be?
She then took a seat next to her mother. Claire, as expected, wondered where she went earlier. After she told her mother she went to the garden, Claire ordered her to not run around in a whisper.
“Mom, who is she?” Ruka asked her mother in a low voice, looking in Sophie’s direction.
Claire leaned in and whispered in her ear, “She is Mr. Husson’s future wife.”
Ruka’s breathing almost stopped. She looked at her mother, and then at the girl who was holding hands and chatting with Old Madam Husson, feeling her chest clench tightly.
Did he actually have a future wife recognized by the Husson Family?
Sophie just happened to look at Ruka with the same curiosity, because to her, any girl who appeared in Husson Residence today could be her enemy.
When the two exchanged glances, Ruka lowered her head guiltily because at this moment, in front of the elderly, Sophie was the one that everyone acknowledged as Ren’s future wife.
Seeing that Old Madam Husson had been holding her hand, the intimacy and adoration were visible to the naked eye. Ruka felt that her heart was tightly grasped by a big palm, causing her to feel breathless. Why didn’t he tell her that he had a future wife who was acknowledged by the family?
Ruka couldn’t control herself and panicked a little. At first sight, Angela’s first impression of Sophie was that of a proud peacock. Sitting beside Old Madam Husson, she seemed a little arrogant. Due to that, Angela turned to glance at Ruka, who had her eyes lowered, seemingly in a bad mood.
Seeing Ruka’s expression, Angela was worried. If she was right, Sophie’s appearance must have hurt her. Even before, she didn’t dare to reveal her relationship. She must have felt even more distressed right now!
However, Angela couldn’t comfort her at this time. She then directed her gaze at her husband who was currently concerned about what she wanted to eat and drink.
“Let’s go. I have something to tell you.” She wanted to tell him about her Richard didn’t like the gathering of the elders either, so he helped Angela up from the couch before leaving. Angela thereafter took him to the garden, where there were several reception rooms and tea rooms.
He was curious about what Angela was going to say to him. It was not until they entered the living room where no one was there that Angela put his arms around his waist, faced him, and leaned in to talk.
“I’m going to tell you a secret. Don’t be surprised,” Angela said to him. “What secret?” Richard’s with curiosity. eyes flickered Angela couldn’t help but make a hook gesture, urging, “Come closer.”
