Chapter 1407
Rita caught it easily. Ruka smiled. “I wish you happiness, Rita.”
Rita stole a glance at Elijah. And perhaps it's already right here.
And then it was tto raise toasts. Scarlet and Walter represented their parents and dealt with the guests. Ren and Elijah went
with them. Ruka just got pregnant so she couldn’t drink or walk around, hence she and Rita went to the common room.

“Ruka, is Elijah taken?” Rita asked shyly.
“He's single. Ren said he's too busy to even have a girlfriend.” Ruka smiled. She knew Rita was interested in Elijah, and she was
more than happy to match them up.
“Really?” Rita's eyes shone.
“Rita, Elijah’s a nice guy. You can consider him.”
“B-But will he date me?” Rita didn’t have high hopes. She didn’t know him well, so she thought her charms werent enough to
attract him.
“Rita, you're beautiful. Trust me. He'll love you,” Ruka encouraged her.
At this moment, Elijah and Ren cback from a round of drinking. Elijah’s face was a little red. Since Ren wasn’t drinking, he had
to do the job himself.

It was a happy day, so he did it gladly.
The three couples took up one table. They were all looking really great, and everyone was attracted to them. It wasn't every day
that three high-profile couples showed up in the splace.
The banquet wrapped up at eight. There was no entertainment, nor was there any need for it. Ren was already an important
enough figure without anyone hyping him out. The people with kids were already going hto see their children.
Rita was about to leave, but then someone said, “Ms. Sommerfield, | had a bit too much to drink. Can you givea ride?”
It was Elijah. He had been keeping up with Rita. The liquid courage from the alcohol he had gave him the push he needed to tell
Rita what he thought.
