Rita was perplexed by Ruka’s response. “Then, can I hand you over to him? He isn’t a bad person, is he?” “Huh? He is…” Ruka shook her head and pursed her red lips. ‘I can’t reveal who he is… He won’t allow me to mention his identity in public…”
Rita was at a loss for words. It seemed like she needed to observe Ruka’s uncle before letting her go. How could she let him take a drunk Ruka home if he was not her blood-related uncle?
Meanwhile, a black sedan, escorted by three black off road vehicles, was driving toward a bustling neighborhood around the city from the direction of the White House.
The vehicle came to a complete halt right in front of the cocktail bar.
The sound of the passenger’s seat car door opening could be heard as soon as the bodyguard stepped out of the car.
“Sir, let’s escort Miss Singed!” the bodyguard said to the man who stepped out of the car.
Ren made a motion with his hand. He had to go in and personally pick her up as Ruka was most likely very drunk. On the way here, he had been thinking about the reason why she had gotten drunk. Did she have a hard time at her internship today? Or did something go wrong?
The two bodyguards went in right away to the bar before Ren quickly stepped in. The lighting in the bar created a very sentimental environment. The spotlights trailed slowly along the customers while the youngsters were seen grooving to the music, chatting and laughing.
Rita was seated somewhere facing the main entrance. Since she was waiting for someone’s arrival, she would pay special attention to everyone who came in.
At that moment, she was the first to notice when two tall men in suits walked in. Their demeanor reminded her of private bodyguards in a Hollywood blockbuster. However, she was not sure why such bodyguards would be present.
Immediately after, a tall figure appeared. Despite his suit, the dim light could not hide his noble and extraordinary temperament.
He was looking for someone as soon as he walked in. When Rita noticed him. staring at their table, he approached them with steady steps. At this point, Rita’s heart was racing. God! Is he Ruka’s uncle?
She could not see his face due to the dim. lighting, but she could sense his powerful aura and vaguely make out his outline. However, when the man approached them, she secretly cried out. Oh my God! Such a handsome young man!
Ren looked at Ruka, who was lying on the table, unsure if she was asleep or drunk. “Hello, I’m Ruka’s uncle. I’m going to take her home now,” he said to Rita.
For some reason, Rita had the impression that she had seen Ren before, but she was sure that he was not a celebrity… He… He looks like… Where did I see him before?
“Are you Ruka’s biological uncle?” Rita still needed to figure out who he was in order to keep her friend safe, not to mention his two stern bodyguards. If something happened to Ruka, Rita would be wronged for the rest of her life.
“I’m not, but I promise I’ll get her home. safely,” Ren stated honestly in a low and distinct voice. “Ruka, your uncle has arrived. Get up, Rita called out, though her heart was pounding.
Ruka blinked her eyes open and turned to face the man beside her. “Why are you here?”
“Ruka, let me take you home,” Ren leaned closer to her and spoke quietly.
On the other hand, Rita locked her gaze on Ren’s face for a few seconds before recalling where she had seen him. “You are the vice presi-” she exclaimed excitedly.
Ren’s eyes narrowed slightly as he made a shush gesture toward her.
She hurriedly covered her mouth with her hand, but she was screaming inside. Ahhhhhh! Ruka’s uncle is the vice president! Oh my God! I can’t believe I had the pleasure of speaking with Mr. Husson!
