Caelus’ expression turned sour.

The production company was Lockton Entertainment.

It was a small, obscure company, but Ruth was someone he hated and feared.

He had witnessed her strategies before. If she dared to do something like this at this point in time, then it meant that she came into this prepared.

He had a bad feeling, and he became even more fretful. “Why is she causing trouble now?! Luna has already given up on the role of Remilia Walton! What else does she want?!”

“I asked our friends over at Lockton Corporation. Apparently, she’s not happy with us ruining her reputation while doing our promotion.”

With those words, Caelus remembered what he did.

With the increase in Silent Love’s popularity, more and more people praised their relationship and compared the two daughters.

Most said that Ruth could not compare to Luna, since she wanted to draw Caelus to her side with materialistic goods, among other things.

Caelus had felt great when he saw those comments in th

    However, in just an instant, reality gave him a harsh slap and snapped him out of his daydream. That plan was only suitable to take down a small production team with no money and support. Strictly speaking, Ruth did have someone supporting her. That person from the Blakewell family was her greatest bargaining chip. If he decided to interfere, the Goldwell family would not even have the right to speak. When Luna saw Caelus fall silent, she exercised an appropriate amount of control to not appear so confident and returned to be the gentle, frail, and delicate woman. She knew that Caelus loved gentle and kind women, so she drew upon her own strength. “Honestly, it’s because of you and Dad acting as my support that I did this. Without you two backing me up, I wouldn’t have dared to fight back with such courage.” Her words instantly reminded Caelus that people became fearless when they had support. If someone as kind as Luna would counterattack because she had support, Ruth, w

    When Ruth and Nathan arrived at the Imperial City’s International Fashion Gala, they were denied entry by the staff. “Ms. Ruth, do you have an electronic invitation?”Ruth frowned. “What?”“We had some errors with the paper invitations. It seems like we sent more invitations than the amount of people we can accommodate in the hall, so we will only receive those with electronic invitations,” the staff told her politely. Those words were fine on their own, but there were other people standing beside the staff member. Those “other people” were from DH. They had gone through a lot of trouble choosing their brand ambassador while paying close attention to the news online. In the end, though, they still picked Luna. When the DH people saw Ruth again, they felt that they were now enemies with her. “All the people participating in the fashion show are big brands with new clothes to show, so they’re naturally only going to invite people who can afford those clothes,” someone said.

    The DH staff members kept talking until Pearl got into a better mood. She turned and sneered disdainfully at Ruth. “Have you made your call? Is your pretty husband coming to pick you up? I can’t believe he can’t even get you an invitation. Is he a kept man like your father?”Pearl was humiliated at the supermarket, then went to the hospital because of Ruth’s lie. The more she thought about those two things, the angrier she got. She intended to humiliate Ruth with a long speech about how her husband was definitely not anyone important, or there was no way he could not even get her an invitation to this sort of event. However, before she could say anything, she saw someone walking over in her peripheral vision. “What’s going on, Madam?”The organizer knew that Kallan was coming over and had sent a person to receive him. When the organizer and Kallan showed up at the same time, the situation turned a little strange. Kallan was Abel’s assistant, so his status was much higher th

    Luna’s gentle smile nearly slipped. She opened her mouth to say something to lighten up the atmosphere, but Pearl just snorted derisively and left. The searching looks of the staff members, who watched the entire exchange, were fixated on Luna. They felt like knives. Luna’s expression sank. She tightened her grip on the phone and practically fled from the area. The organizer gave Ruth and Nathan seats at the center of the first row. Those were seats for the VVIPs. Ruth was still feeling a little dazed, but Nathan had already figured things out. He told her that since the organizing party was a fashion brand under Blakewell Corporation, it was only natural that they would be respectful toward members of the Blakewell family. After he said that, he also remarked in amazement that the Blakewell family name was really powerful.Ruth nodded. She was still puzzled and wanted to ask some questions, but the emcee announced the start of the fashion show. She composed herself and

    Ruth wore a light green dress, and her slightly wavy long hair was tied up in a casual ponytail. Sitting prominently underneath her long, smooth neck were her collarbones. When the light shone on her, her skin shone like a pearl. She sat in a lazy fashion and gave off a unique demeanor. When she looked at the stage aloofly, she appeared like an onlooker who was just observing something that had nothing to do with her. When Luna met her gaze, she slowly smiled. “That’s why I’ve asked DH to reserve all the limited-edition items in your size today as thanks for taking care of Rising Star in the past and for supporting me and Caelus.”Those words were directed at Ruth, but the moment she finished speaking, the entire audience burst into a ruckus. Even Pearl was shocked. That fake b*tch in sheep’s clothing was actually provoking Ruth in public?How exciting!After a period of uncomfortable silence, the people started whispering to each other. “If I’m not mistaken, Luna said th

    Luna’s elegant and smug expression vanished. She was so angry that her face twisted in rage. However, she could not find any suitable way to retort. The atmosphere became so awkward that it was stifling. The emcee did his best to mediate the situation and switched the topic to the other designers. Ruth put down the microphone and instinctively looked to her side. Terran was gone. She asked Nathan, “Where is she?”Nathan knew Ruth well. Hence, he was not surprised by what she said. While he watched Luna’s expression change, he also paid attention to the other changes in the hall. When he heard the question, he answered seriously, “While you were talking to Luna, Ms. Terran was staring at you. Once you started talking about how men were like clothes, she seemed to have scoffed and left through the left door. Honestly, he could have just said the last phrase. Why did he have to waste his breath with the rest?Ruth’s mouth twitched. Then, she got up to chase after Terran.

    “Congratulations.”Terran’s cold and aloof words interrupted Ruth’s thoughts. After some brief thought, Ruth decided to go straight to the main topic of the conversation. “I’d like to ask you to join the team.”Terran smiled and gave her an unreadable glance before she said in a slightly mocking tone, “I work for Rising Star and am the head screenwriter of Silent Love. I’ve adapted plenty of top-selling major works. Why do you think I’d agree to work on your little-known novel?”“Silent Love plagiarized Strawberry Season. I believe you’ve heard about it.”“I did. But that’s not within my consideration. Even if Silent Love ends up being canceled, I won’t consider working on a web drama.”Her words were absolutely ruthless. They blocked off all of the potential paths Ruth could take. When she saw that they were only a few hundred meters away from Rising Star, Ruth realized that she had no other choice. Besides, she was also hurt by the harsh words, so she decided to be utterly

    When Ruth heard her words, her eyes lit up. “Are you jealous?”She had a perfect understanding of the micro-expressions people had when they were jealous. And it was all thanks to Abel being jealous so often. Of course, Abel also played a role in how she managed to break the ice with Terran. Apparently, men were not the only ones who liked women acting cute. Women also liked other women who acted cute. “Hmph. I’m not jealous.” Terran scoffed and returned to being an aloof and heartless woman. However, that expression was just bizarre in this sort of situation and atmosphere. Since Ruth knew when to quit while she was ahead, she did not continue being smug and just gently told Terran the reason behind her actions. She wanted to retrieve all the people she brought into Rising Star, but she was in no position to do it, nor did she have the power to do it. Hence, she could only find chances to break the walls keeping her allies trapped in Rising Star one by one, and the situat

    Galen stood nervously at the side. At first, he wanted to step in and help, but he held himself back.In the end, he gave up and watched the fight.The more he watched, the more startled he was.Despite her delicate frame, her moves were calculated and ruthless.Many of her moves were lethal.She was a young woman who was loved. She was pampered and adored by everyone. How was such a person so ruthless in combat?It was as if she often fought to the death…Mr. Watson was shaken as well. He covered his neck with one hand, while his other hand hung limply by his hand. He looked at Lily in shock. His other hand hung weakly by his side. He looked at Lily in shock.How could such a small and delicate-looking person possess such strength? Was she really the heiress of the Cavendish family?“Do you want to verify it? The wounds match with the one who attacked me. I broke his right wrist on the spot, though. After that, I didn’t wait for reinforcement to come. I moved immediately an

    Her hand paused while hefting the silver fork.Ruth’s husband was really very considerate. He loved her sister truly and everyone in her family.She decided to find a boyfriend like him for herself in the future.“I definitely will!” She thought.She stood in the spacious living room and looked at the man beside Galen who wanted to get to the bottom of this investigation. Her fingers tightened on the fork. “Words might not be enough to explain. If you don’t believe me, why don’t you give this a try?”Galen had not reacted when Charles spoke, nor when Abel had talked about switching it to a blunt weapon, but he definitely did now. “Nonsense!” he said sternly and stood up.Lily’s fighting spirit was ignited, but his stern rebuke deflated half of it. “Why not? Is it now allowed? You said attacking a police officer wasn’t allowed, didn’t you?”“He doesn’t count!” Galen said with disdain.Lily’s aggressive stance was completely deflated. “Well… if he doesn’t count, then his skills

    The seemingly innocent question was directed at the young police officer.He looked troubled.Her delicate appearance did not help.The young police officer turned to the stern-faced man beside Galen for some help. The man pursed his thin lips and spoke in a deep voice.“Your Excellency… Madam… the nature of this case is severe, but the process of investigation is smooth. If your daughter doesn’t reveal the whole truth, it’ll be difficult for us to reach the crux of the issue. I assume that you don’t just want the result from this investigation but also the truth?”His firm voice was authoritative yet respectful.Charles turned to look at him. His brown eyes were calm, and he was sizing up this person.The police officer’s cold demeanor momentarily faltered. He quickly looked away and did not dare look him in the eye. “We’re just following procedures. To prevent this matter from escalating further, we hope for your cooperation.”He sounded intimidated yet resolute. It seemed

    He was already determined to stake everything on his plan.“Right,” Lily said, “What about those bodyguards assigned to protect me? How were they swapped?”“Abel offered them ten times the price and bribed the group of bodyguards hired by Denver. The two poor people were taken down. The rest were replaced by our own people,” said Galen icily.Lily was shocked. She looked at him and then at Abel, who was driving calmly.Ruth looked at her husband with the same shocked face.So, this was how money made the world go round!When Denver had transferred money to that company, Lily had caught wind of it, but it seemed Abel had found out even sooner.He had already made arrangements to take drastic measures.“Don’t they have any morals? I heard that those kinds of organizations have principles. They won’t willingly betray the ones who employed them,” said Ruth.“As long as it’s not a terrorist organization, every organization needs connections. William’s group was already in dire stra

    It was mainly because Denver clearly fabricated an alibi. But he had appeared on the scene and had been taken away.It was indeed quite puzzling.At that point, everyone looked at Abel in confusion.Abel looked straight ahead and did not speak. He only spoke when he was asked directly.“The father and son lost because they didn’t know each other’s motivations. It’s easy to bribe their people to send a message to the other and get them to the scene…”Before they set off, Sean received news that Denver was going all out and wanted to go down with Lily in the manor in the suburbs.Sean did not doubt it because Denver had been acting increasingly strange recently.He was transferring his assets and buying and renovating manors. It was as though he was prepared for death.He had even arranged for his funeral.Afraid that his son was taking things too hard, he put down whatever he was doing and rushed over to the scene.Since that was taken care of, it was easy to deceive Denver af

    “See what you are doing? What if something happens to your sister?”Charles was not known for showing affection or caring about people outright.However, when his daughter cried and threw a tantrum, he could not stop himself.Charles stood by Lily without hesitation and scolded Abel for his incompetence.Ruth was originally filled with resentment and wanted to vent it out on Abel too, but when she saw that the father and daughter duo had joined forces to attack her husband, half of her resentment dissipated.With four bodyguards that had been arranged to deal with two outsiders, coupled with Lily’s abilities, her life was indeed not in danger…She glanced at Lily hesitantly. At this moment, Galen had cleaned up all the stains on her palm.Other than the redness between her thumb and index finger, she did not seem too badly hurt.All the resentment was gone. In fact, she was even a little protective. “Why did you have to deal with the four bodyguards?” Lily lowered her head an

    Everyone was speechless.This discussion was fruitless. Everyone had their own opinions, and no one wanted to give in.In the end, Reina and the old man took a car, while Ruth, Abel, Charles, Galen Barker, and Lily got into another.The fire slowly died down.The cars left one after another.After Mr. Lockton got into the car, his cloudy eyes became shrewd. He asked his daughter, “Do you think that police officer is also interested in Lily?”Otherwise, why would he be so active and rush to the front? Why would he find such a lousy excuse to be the one to drop her home?“I think so, but unfortunately, Lily doesn’t seem to be as interested as before,” Reina said helplessly.Otherwise, why would she reject such a good opportunity to get into his car?Wouldn’t she have acted pitiful enough to earn his sympathy to get into the car?Mr. Lockton frowned. He was in deep thought.The last time he had heard that his granddaughter had fallen in love with another man who happened to be

    Also, she was sure that if it was Luna being attacked at that time, he would have helped her without hesitation.This man was just like Notus. He was stupid, stubborn, and hypocritical.The reason why she spoke on his behalf was that she could not stand Luna’s smug face. Even if she wanted to drag someone down, she had to ask first.It was just the truth. She would not die if she made that clear anyway.Luna’s smug look cracked as she stared fixedly at her. Her gaze shifted from doubt to resentment and unwillingness.Aquilo was not surprised when Lily accused him. He knew that he had done something wrong. If not for Abel’s careful consideration, they would have died here today.However, he was quite surprised to hear her defend him.As he was handcuffed and escorted to the police car, he could not help but turn to look at her.“Lily…”Lily was about to walk to her car.She paused for a moment and turned to look at him calmly.Her usually playful eyes were indifferent at that

    Aquilo opened his mouth but did not know what to say.Just then, a team of uniformed police officers rushed over to the scene to rescue the hostages.Looking at the people standing before them, they could not tell which ones were the hostages.Galen Barker walked over from behind and glanced at them. “What are you still standing here for? Get out quickly!”This manor had an ancient Sommersetese courtyard.The place where they were gathered was a small open space in the courtyard.After passing through the desolate artificial mountain pavilion, they arrived at the large courtyard outside the manor. There were many people gathered there, with many police cars parked nearby.A fire truck had also arrived.To Lily’s surprise, Sean Lovehart and his father were also there and were being escorted into the police car.When he saw her coming out, Denver’s face filled with hatred. He wanted to rush to her and strangle her. “You’ve got guts! You risked your life to drag us down with you!
