Never Too Far Novel
Chapter 1021-1030
“No wonder, but it’s beautiful here. It’s mesmerizing.” Ruka scanned the ornaments in which each of them held a special meaning to it.
At that moment, the appetizers and fruit juices were served. Her eyes sparkled as she was already starving. She gulped her saliva while looking at the mouth-watering appetizers.
“If you’re hungry, just dig in.” Ren smiled as there was a smidgen of affection seeped into his voice.
She nodded and took one of the mozzarella sticks before feeding herself. It tasted awesome with its cheesy crunchiness.
“What is the earliest memory you can remember?” he asked out of curiosity.
With narrowed eyes, she chewed the food while recalling. “I think it’s when I was six or seven. It was the time I started elementary school. Why?” she questioned back.
He bit his lips. I knew it. This brat can’t remember everything that had happened until she turned five. She doesn’t know how clingy she was back then.
“Nevermind. Have more.” He had no intention of explaining.
“You should have them too.” Ruka placed a mozzarella stick onto his plate and he looked at it. Ren, who did not favor fried food, ate it nevertheless.
“Mr. Ren, are you normally busy with your work?”
“Very.”
“I bet you know many big names of the country, don’t you?”
“Hmm.”
“Aunt Scarlet told me that you don’t even have the time for blind dates.”
Ren narrowed his eyes. “Do you have a hobby of digging into my matters?”
“No. I’m worried about your marriage, like Aunt Scarlet does. I just hope that you’ll find someone that you can spend the rest of your life with.” Ruka gazed at him with sincerity, showing her genuine concern about one of his biggest life events.
He snorted. “Yeah, yeah. I should be worrying when even a kiddo like you has a boyfriend.”
Her cheeks tinged with red. “We haven’t gone that far yet! It’s just that we click and we enjoy the company of each other.”
“Oh, really? Do you have his picture?”
She was slightly stunned. Does he wanna see him?
Nonetheless, she bashfully took out her phone and found a photo they had taken together before showing Ren. “See the guy wearing a white T-shirt? That’s him.”
He grabbed the gadget to take a look at it. It was a picture of eight of them on a mountain. A smiling Ruka stood next to a tall guy, whose smile was dashingly bright. He seemed like the type that girls would fall for in schools.
“He’s Jethro. I have known him since high school. He’s my senior,” she announced seriously yet nervously as if she was introducing his friend to the elders.
“Hmm. He’s quite handsome.” The moment Ren returned her phone, his phone rang and he picked it up.
“Hello.”
“Sir, Miss Parfait is at the door to see you,” reported the bodyguard.
Ren’s brows furrowed as he responded, “I’m coming.”
He then told Ruka, “I’ll be outside for a while. Go ahead and enjoy the food without me.”
“Okay.” She nodded while thinking, He is a busy man. He has to deal with work even during meal time.
As soon as Ren’s tall stature appeared by the door, a woman sprinted toward him and hugged him tightly. Considering the faint smell of alcohol on her, it was obvious that she had some drinks.
Clinging onto him, she buried her face into his chest and uttered with delight, “Ren, I knew that you’d be here. I miss you, especially tonight.”
“You’re drunk. I’ll ask someone to send you home.” He pushed her away and grasped her shoulders while looking at her calmly.
She seemed to be in her late twenties. With that bushy curly hair and sublime make-up, she appeared gorgeous yet sexy. She was a total beauty queen and yet, someone like her had been pursuing Ren for a whole five years, but it did not come to fruition.
“No! I don’t wanna go home. I wanna stay with you. Ren, I don’t wanna go anywhere except staying by your side. Please don’t drive me away.” Victoria Parfait stared at him with glazing eyes, which was rife with her deep admiration for him.
Ren rejected in a low voice, “I’m slammed tonight.”
“That’s the excuse you use every single time. You just don’t wanna see me, do you? Tell me, which part of me are you unsatisfied with? I’ll change. I’ll change until you’re satisfied. For the past five years, there’s not a day I live through without missing you. I’ve waited for you this long. You gotta give me a reason.” Victoria’s voice was filled with sorrow and grievance. She was indeed drunk and hence the daring confession to the vice president of the country.
He beckoned the bodyguard over. “Please send Miss Parfait home.”
However, the woman, who was pushed away, threw herself into his embrace once again. With her hand tightly wrapped around his waist, she shook her head. “No! I ain’t going anywhere. Five years ago, you told me that there’s someone you like, but I’ve never seen any women by your side all along. There’s not a shadow of women near you either. Was it a lie? Why can’t you give me a chance?”
Ruka drank too much fruit juice and so nature was calling for her. She rose from her seat and went out to search for the restroom. When she left the ladies’, she happened to hear a vehement woman speaking. Out of curiosity, she walked toward where the woman was.
Just a single glance of the situation made her cover her mouth.
Holy moly! Is that a woman in Mr. Ren’s arms? She seems to be grumbling about something to him. She’s kinda agitated at the moment.
She wondered if the woman was Ren’s crush. If so, she could inform Scarlet about it and tell her not to worry about it.
“Ren Husson, hurry and tell me. Is there someone you like? Just say it! Who is she? I’ll give up as long as you give me a name.” Victoria lifted her head and looked at him with teary eyes, which were blurry and grieve.
Just as Ren was about to say something, he saw someone fall from behind the pillar. It was Ruka, who decided to return to the private room upon noticing an incoming waiter. However, there was a threshold next to the pillar, which made her trip and fall onto the ground.
This is so embarrassing!
She raised her head to see him shoving the woman away from his arms. He then strode toward Ruka with a worried face whereas she hastily rose to her feet. “No worries! I’m fine.”
The shoved Victoria cast her glance over in surprise, only to see a young girl standing before Ren with a bright smile.
The girl under the illuminating light looked young; her jet-black hair flowed down to her waist and revealed the well-defined features on her palm-sized face, especially with those bright eyes that could talk.
Jealousy surged into Victoria’s heart almost immediately. Taking a deep breath in pain, she marched over and sized Ruka up before asking Ren, “Is it her? Is she the one you’ve been waiting for?”
Meanwhile, Ruka was nonplussed by the sudden turn of events. What is this pretty lady talking about?
His countenance stiffened as he held Victoria’s hand. “I’ll ask someone to send you home right now.” His voice left no room for a denial.
She was baffled and her heart was pricked by an invisible knife. It was her first time seeing him so nervous. Ever since he was elected as the vice president, his manner of working had been calm and solemn. Yet, the anxiety on his face was evident a moment ago.
“Why? You don’t have the guts to admit it to my face? Ren, what are you afraid of?” She shrugged his hand off. There was not one bit of rationality left in her under the influence of alcohol.
It was her first time in five years seeing the man she loved inviting a girl for a meal. Thus, it was enough to prove that this young lady was the person he coveted.
Is she the person he has been waiting for?
“Speak! Is she the one?” Victoria raised her head as she was persistent to get to the bottom of it.
“Stop the fuss. You should get going.” The glint in Ren’s eyes was daunting.
“Miss, what’s your name?” she questioned Ruka suddenly.
“I’m Ruka Singed. I’m…” the innocent girl replied politely.
“She is my sister’s best friend’s daughter,” Ren continued Ruka’s words.
Victoria was stunned for a moment, for she could clearly tell that he was avoiding something.
Is he protecting her? Who is she?
“Nice to meet you. I’m Victoria Parfait.” She took the initiative to introduce herself due to the sudden swell of self-confidence. If this young brat was truly the one he liked, she need not have to worry about her rival.
“Hi. I’m Ruka.” Ruka returned a smile.
However, Victoria’s arm was suddenly grabbed by a hand. Ren pulled her while ordering Ruka, “Go back to the private room. I gotta talk to her for a moment.”
Ruka sensibly wheeled around and left. Victoria’s gaze zeroed in on her figure until she vanished in the corridor. Then, Victoria raised her head at him. “So, you like that kid?”
“Stop spewing nonsense. It’s not like what you think.” He let go of her arm and his countenance slightly darkened. “You’ve gone overboard tonight. You should leave.”
At this moment, she was almost sober and was slightly mortified. However, she did not regret blurting these.
“Sorry. I’m behaving like this because I love you so much.” She bit her lip before lifting her head to question, “So, what’s going on between the both of you?”
