Reborn: The Tyrant's Obsession novel Chapter 82

Chapter 82: She gets her confidence from me

As an orphan, Ronan didn’t really have a proper birthday until he was picked up by the King Family and the day they took him in became his birthday.

That birthday happened to be a month ago. The entire day, he hung out with Kade. And by night, he was too wasted to return to a condominium.

While Kade left with his driver, Ronan ended up at a hotel room. He had almost passed out when there was a knock on the door.

And post that, his memories were all blurry.

What happened next... was a blur

And he woke up with a woman in his arms.

It did not take a genius to understand what had transpired between them the night before.

In utter disbelief, Ronan clutched his head and turned to the woman who was casually dressing up. And greeted by the sight of her naked body, he was too stunned to say anything.

So, he averted his gaze and waited for her to finish dressing.

But who could have thought that after getting ready, the woman had no intention to stay or talk to him?

Calmly she turned to leave.

And it was then when he stopped her, ’’Wait, are you just leaving?!" Ronan remembered asking her this.

When she turned, he froze momentarily. It was not like Ronan had not seen beautiful women but the one in front of him knocked the breath out of him. She was that stunning in his eyes... that is, until she opened her mouth.

"You want money? I didn’t bring my bag,’’ The gorgeous redhead looked at him without the slightest hint of embarrassment.

And for once, Ronan’s years of medical studies did not help him in thinking of a befitting reply.

Taking his silence for reluctance, the woman had calmly continued speaking, ’’Take my number and reach out to me later. I will surely pay you.’’

Helpless and speechless, Ronan shook his head, ’’I don’t need money. Last night, we were both too drunk to realize it..." When he looked at her, he was not taken in by her beauty again.

But rather, he realized something, ’’You look pretty young. Are you...’’ A hint of horror crept in his heart, ’’at least the legal age?"

The woman looked at him expressionless, ’’Thank you for the compliment. I am 27.’’

Ronan sighed in relief, ’’Are you from Vermilion City only?"

’’I am not from V country. Just here for work.’’

With that, the woman left and Ronan never saw her again.

After that, all thanks to the little witch that Adrian was raising in his mansion, Ronan ended up heading to the Main Mansion. And he was busier than ever.

Eventually, he put the affairs of that night to the back of his head, never expecting to see this woman again.

Until that particular day when he was forced to drop Ella at her university.

"I really should thank her huh...’’ Ronan mumbled.

Ruby looked at him with a small frown, ’’Why is it you?"

Her question made him speechless, ’’That’s all you have got to say?"

"What do you want me to say?"

Ronan laughed in disbelief, ’’You... 27 years old? Not from Vermilion City? Here for work?!"

Ruby lowered her eyes, appearing thoughtful for a moment, ’’So... you know?’’

’’Of course, I know. I know everything. Ruby Ambrose. 21 years. The night you slept with me was the night you got engaged.’’

And what was ironic was that the man she was engaged to was none other than the man Ella was obsessed over.

’’You tricked me! Don’t you have anything to say?"

Ruby looked at the man, calm as still water and then she said. ’’You were easily tricked."

"_"

"You... Did you think I would never know the truth?"

’’Took you long enough."

Ronan narrowed his eyes, ’’Are you not going to say that you did not want to trick me but rather it was a misunderstanding?"

’’It was intentional. To make things convenient,’’ Ruby deadpanned.

That irked him more than he expected.

"And you’re not going to explain? Or apologize?"

"We’re strangers," she said flatly.

Ronan let out a dry laugh. "Strangers who slept together."

"It was an accident."
