Chapter 1235
She blushed at his sentimental tone, but she stood her ground and gave a firm shake of her head as she said, “No, I
can’t just have you bankroll me. I want to make something of myself: I don’t want to stay idle.”
A small smile curled on his lips as he asked teasingly. “Is it that embarrassing to be a housewife!
“It’s not embarrassing.” Ruka countered in a flustered manner. “I just want to accomplish something and have a
career of my own, you know? I don’t want to be one of those ladies of leisure.”

president exterior hid a smooth talker?
Ruka pursed her lips to keep from laughing, but she flushed as she pointed out, “You can have any woman you
want. Just say the word and any girl would throw herself at you.”
Ren brought his cup to his lips and drank his tea, then muttered, “And yet, you still haven’t.”
She gaped at him. I guess I should have seen that coming, she thought rucfully.
In another attempt to change the subject, she said brightly, “I wonder when Aunt Scarlet and Uncle Walter are
coming back. I do miss them.”
