He caved to her plea and took her hand while getting up, and they left the cinema before the movie ended. Ruka nervously held


    onto him as they walked to the elevator. Whenever people squeezed into the elevator, her heart beat faster, and she would look


    at them, fearing they would pose a danger to him.


    Ren sensed that she was panic-stricken out of concern for him, so he wrapped his arms around her. Remorse shed across his


    face as heforted her, “Nothing’s going to happen. Don’t worry.”


    As soon as they left the elevator, Ruka grabbed his hand and dashed toward the mall’s entrance. When they exited the mall, she


    was shocked to see shing lights from a big group of special forces convoy.


    Elijah came out from behind with a few people trailing him. “Mr. Husson, please return to the White House. If we still can’t find


    you, I’d have to contact Mr. President and notify your parents.”


    Ruka was obviously frightened by the scene before her. Ren narrowed his eyes and coldly demanded, “Stop talking.”


    Then, he led Ruka to a car.


    After that, the cars gradually left the ce. On both sides of the motorcade were heavily armored Humvees that led the way.


    While Ruka sat in the car, she still felt cold sweat dripping down her spine. At this moment, she finally understood how important


    this man was.


    On the other hand, the man who snuck out behind his secretary’s back took off his mask while looking frustrated and displeased.


    Nheless, Ruka was very touched that he took two hours of his precious time to spend with her, not to mention the fact that


    hepromised his safety while doing so..


    “It''s okay! Don’t be angry. Elijah was only concerned for your safety,” she gently advised him while hugging his arm.


    Ruka thought of talking to Ren since she was worried Elijah would be reprimanded when they got out of the car.Content ? copyrighted by N?velDrama.Org.


    “Ruka, if we can no longer go shopping, eat out, or watch movies together as normal people do, are you still willing to date me?”


    Ren asked hoarsely, and his dark eyes were fixated on her intently.


    She paused as she remembered the excuse she had used for rejecting him: he couldn''t go shopping, enjoy meals outside or


    watch movies with her. So, he ignored his safety so that he could do all these things with her? She felt guilty, worried, and most


    of all, highly emotional about it he had risked his life in order to be with her.


    Wait, what did he say? Whether or not she was willing to date him if he could no longer do those things with her? Did he want to


    date her?


    Ruka pursed her lips. “If you want us to date, please look out for your safety. Don’t worry Elijah the way you did today.”


    “You seem to care a lot about what Elijah thinks. Do you fancy him?” Ren felt jealous of Elijah, and she had brought him up way


    too many times today.


    She had wanted to praise Elijah for being sopetent in his work, but now she felt like she was just making everything worse


    for him. Thus, she shook her head quickly. “Of course not. Please don’t misread everything. | just don’t want you to reprimand


    him.


    “Why are you so worried about him?” Ren asked, feeling more and more jealous by the second.


    “Well, he worked hard to ensure your safety today. He’s been amodating and responsible.” Yet, Ruka felt that she was


    making everything worse with her reasoning.
