Ruka couldnât control herself and panicked a little. At first sight, Angelaâs first impression of Sophie was that of a proud peacock. Sitting beside Old Madam Husson, she seemed a little arrogant. Due to that, Angela turned to glance at Ruka, who had her eyes lowered, seemingly in a bad mood.
Seeing Rukaâs expression, Angela was worried. If she was right, Sophieâs appearance must have hurt her. Even before, she didnât dare to reveal her relationship. She must have felt even more distressed right now!
However, Angela couldnât comfort her at this time. She then directed her gaze at her husband who was currently concerned about what she wanted to eat and drink.
âLetâs go. I have something to tell you.â She wanted to tell him about her discovery.
Richard didnât like the gathering of the elders either, so he helped Angela up from the couch before leaving. Angela thereafter took him to the garden, where there were several reception rooms and tea rooms.
He was curious about what Angela was going to say to him. It was not until they entered the living room where no one was there that Angela put his arms around his waist, faced him, and leaned in to talk.
âIâm going to tell you a secret. Donât be surprised,â Angela said to him.
âWhat secret?â Richardâs eyes flickered with curiosity.
Angela couldnât help but make a hook gesture, urging, âCome closer.â
Richard wrapped his arm around her waist, leaned down, and brought his cars close to her lips. Angela whispered, âHave you noticed the look in Uncle Renâs eyes when heâs watching Ruka? It doesnât look like a normal gaze an elder would give to a junior.â
He didnât understand, so he blinked and asked, âWhat do you mean?â
She leaned over and elaborated, âI feel that the way Uncle Ren looks at Ruka is just like the way you look at me. Itâs a look of admiration between men and women.â
As soon as Angela finished speaking, Richard pulled her into his arms. He glanced around nervously while Angela stuck her head out of his arms, looking innocent. Looking at him, she insisted, âIâm pretty sure Iâm right.â
Richardâs gaze locked on her as he warned hoarsely, âYou canât talk nonsense like âIâm not.â Angcla felt aggrieved.
