“Really? Thank you, Aunt Scarlet. | will not let you down. Ruka was very glad to have obtained the chance as well since she wanted to be like her parents and be a person that served the country.

“Oh right, haven't you always wanted to see Richard? He's here too.” “Right. Richard has always been someone that | looked up to.

Although | haven't officially met him, he’s like a brother in my heart.” Ruka nodded.

“He's about to get married, so you'll have a sister-in-law soon.” Smiling, Ruka replied, “My sister-in-law must be a gentle beauty, then.” Scarlet nodded and said proudly, “You're very right on that point.” “Being so exceptional, Richard must have met someone just as capable as he is.” Even though Ruka did not grow up by her parents’ side, she still received all the love she needed. This meant that her actions were all genuine and kind.

Returning to the Husson Residence, Ruka began unpacking before heading downstairs to give Scarlet and Walter presents. “Aunt Scarlet and Uncle Walter. these are spresents for the both of you. | hope that you'll like them.” “Oh, we'll love anything that you give us.” Scarlet accepted them happily when a servant cto inform her upon receiving a call, “Madam, the vice president mentioned that he wanted to dine here tonight.” “Really? Prepare a few more dishes, then.” Scarlet had not seen her brother for quite stnow.

Ruka blinked. “Is Mr. Ren coming?” When she went abroad, he had yet to ascend to the position of vice president. Now, he was one of the most influential people in the country.

Scarlet smiled and nodded. “That's right. Ren is coming over. You two have scatching up to do.” Ruka did feel a bit estranged, yet the memories about Ren were deeply ingrained in her.

She remembered that her position fell by twenty in the mid term exams when she was fifteen. When she saw the results, she cried sadly while soaking in the rain on her way home.

While walking, she was knocked over by a man on a bike, which made her bawl even louder. It was then she bumped into Ren, who got down the car and took her home. On the way back, he scolded her harshly, making her sob ever sadder. What an embarrassing flashback.

Since then, she had been actively avoiding Ren, for she had feared how stern he was.

“H-He’s the vice-president now?” Ruka was in disbelief as to how he got the position at such a young age.

Smiling, Scarlet asked, “Why? Are you afraid of him?” Indeed, she was a bit afraid of him. Now that he’s the vice-president, doesn’t that mean that he would only be more imposing?But, even if I'm scared of him, | can’t just say it out loud. Though they were not related by blood and he was technically not her uncle, she still treated and respected him as one.

Scarlet, who noticed Ruka spacing out, comforted her, “You don’t need to be so scared of him. After all, it's not as if he'll devour you. You just have to catch up with him during dinner. If you build a proper rapport, he can even look after you when you work in the translation department.” Ruka nodded shyly, thinking that she might have unknowingly used nepotism to get the job.

“Rest up now! I'll call you when it’s tfor dinner,” said Scarlet.

“Okay. I'll go take a nap then.” Ruka went back to her room. The long flight back hhad left her so fatigued that she slept all the way till evening.

It was that twhen a black sedan slowly drove to the courtyard of the Husson Residence.
