“] envy Ruka. She has two moms and two dads. Harold, Charlotte, and uncle love her too.” Sophie continued.

Ruka bit her fork. She was a little panicked. Honestly, she was so nervous, she didn’t even dare to meet Ren’s gaze. She was

worried Sophie might tell everyone about her relationship with him. She didn’t want that dream to happen in real life. What if his

family wells at him? What if he hurts them because of us?

“Well, | mean, everyone's different, Miss Liamson. For example, speople aren't loved by their family, unlike Ruka is. Don’t you

think so?” Angela snapped.

Sophic shut up and laughed at hersell. “I guess so. I'm not as lucky as she is.”

Ruka stood up and announced, “I need to use the bathroom.”

She left the room quickly, and Ren looked at her, worried. He held his phone up. “I'm gonna make a call.” And then he left as well.

Sophic started in the direction they left. Angela rested her chin on her hands. “Stop staring, Miss Liamson. Dig in.”

She then looked at Richard and winked. It was as if she was saying, See? | hit the bullseye.

Richard's brows knitted together. That's not the problem here. This is a compiler case that needs to be dealt with

The bathroom was just an excuse for Ruka to get sfresh air. The tension was too much back in there, and her heart kept

thumping furiously. It almost suffocated her.

A gust of cold wind blew across her the moment she cto the garden, causing her hair to Dillow in the wind. She had taken hier

coat oil, so she was wearing nothing but her white dress. The cold air was making her shiver. She wanted to back away.

Then again, someone pulled her into a warm embrace. It surprised her. She looked back and saw Ren.lic looked worried and

sympathetic.

“It's cold out here, so why did you cout?” He led her into a greenhouse where the heater was on.

Ruka pulled her hand back. She was worried sservant might cout and see them. He sighed. “Don’t take what Sophie said

to heart. She's just an outsider.”

She didn’t want to tell him that Sophie threatened her before. It would just give him unwanted pressure. She nodded. “Sure. | don’t

really mind what she said.”

Back in the dining room, Claire had also excused herself to go to the restroom. She thought she would run into her daughter there,

but she didn’t see her, even when she was done relieving herself. It annoyed her.

It's mealtime. Where is that girl? We're guests here. She can’t run around. She's not a kid anymore.

Claire was a strict mother. She went to look for her daughter so she could take her back to the dining hall. Going back alone was

clearly rude.
