While they were talking, Vincent, Demi, and the rest of their friend group came forward and grabbed Ruth’s arm. They squealed in excitement and asked her what was going on.

Serenity had told them about it a long time ago, so they were not too shocked.

However, once they saw Ruth and Abel, they wanted to know the details.

Abel was surrounded by people who wanted to talk to him. Since it was a rare event for him to show up in public, he quickly became the focus of everyone’s attention.

Meanwhile, Ruth was surrounded by her friends, who were slyly asking personal questions.

Luna watched this scene, and she was so jealous that she clenched her wine glass tightly.

But it was okay. She would let the b*tch remain on her high horse for a little while longer.

Once she got into contact with Harper Williams, she would let Ruth know the taste of having her talents poached as well.

While she was thinking about this, she saw a foreigner in his thirties walk in. He looked around the p

    The party hall fell dead silent. Aside from the people who knew of who she was a long time ago, the rest were all dumbstruck. This… wasn’t a joke, was it?The person who organized the party, Joseph, was also shocked when he learned of the real identity of the party’s protagonist. He turned to the side. When he saw that Mr. Herbert was as surprised as he was, he felt better somehow. “You only found out today too?”Mr. Herbert snapped out of his daze and looked at Joseph, then at Nathan, who remained zen by his side. He tried his best to school his face into one of calmness. “I-I knew a long time ago! I just didn’t want to stand out too much!”Joseph did not know what to say to that. Ruth gave a brief statement. She thanked the Gate to the Heart’s people, and while the news media reporters were around, announced the other works in her hands. She also told the people who were interested in working with her to contact her privately to get a more detailed understanding of those w

    Once he said that, he looked at the spot where Ruth disappeared and spoke with a ruminating tone. “Why did she not recognize me, then? Is she playing hard to get? Very well. She has my attention now.”The balcony did not have the hustle and bustle of the party hall. Abel walked out onto it and leaned against the wall with a hand in his pants pocket while he held a glass of red wine in his other hand. He swirled it gently. While he looked at the red wine sloshing about in the glass, he felt an indescribable frustration in his heart. Ever since Ruth came back, he watched her get to her current position step-by-step. She had quickly integrated herself into the domestic entertainment scene, broke its rules, formed connections, and, with her unique judgment, produced movies and shows that reeled in huge amounts of money. He watched her shine brightly and display her talents. This should have made him happy, but he found it difficult to be happy. So… this was how it felt to have s

    Abel leaned against the wall and swirled the wine glass even harder. Then, he stopped doing it so that the wine did not spill out of it. Ruth’s head only reached his chest. If he just wrapped his arm around her waist, he could easily hold her in his bosom. When he looked into Ruth’s slightly narrowed eyes, he said faintly, “Your gut is lying to you, I assure you.”Ruth was rendered speechless. She did not believe him!She was sure that Abel was doing it on purpose and was about to suck in a deep breath to rebuke him on a moral high ground when Abel sighed. “I did guess that you were hiding something from me, but I thought you were just hiding the fact that you are the Gate to the Heart’s author.”Ruth fell silent. Her mind went blank.” How did you know?”Right after she said that and saw Abel’s surprised eyes, she pulled her hands back and covered her mouth. Oh no. She just made things worse. It was just as they said. “It never rains, but it pours.”Abel’s eyes darkened.

    Since Abel was holding a wine glass in one hand, he used his other one to grab her waist. “You sure know a lot of rumors about me.”In the past, she did not even know the commonly known facts about Abel, which was why she had missed all of his subtle and not-so-subtle hints about his true identity. “I wanted to understand my husband a little more, so I did some homework.”“I don’t believe you.”Ruth rose on her tiptoes and whispered into his ear in an incredibly alluring voice, “Should I go to your penthouse tonight to prove it?” No matter what, Mrs. Greenwell and Mr. Jackson stayed with them, and Mrs. Greenwell had been giving her strange looks during the days Ruth woke up late. The nourishing food she cooked up for her meals also made Ruth’s skin crawl. Since there was no way she could avoid this, it would be better for them to do it at the hotel. She would not feel too stressed or burdened by it. When Abel heard this, he subconsciously tightened his hold over her waist and

    When Apollo sensed a cold gaze, he realized he had been too reckless and let go of Ruth with an embarrassed expression. “I… Just treat it as me having deceived you! Don’t talk about it anymore!”Ruth used a tissue to wipe her mouth carefully with a look of disgust.“How could you be so self-righteous after deceiving me? Pour me some wine!” she ordered coldly.Apollo was stunned by her words.Who exactly was the one being self-righteous?Apollo was angry but did not dare to say anything. He could only fill her glass with wine aggrievedly.Ruth picked up the wine glass and invited everyone to raise their glasses. “The filming of the Gate to the Heart has ended successfully, and I would like to thank all of you for your hard work. It is the first production I took charge of after returning to the country, and I’m grateful for your trust. This is to you all. Cheers!”Most of the members of the production team knew each other, so they got along with each other. The atmosphere was qui

    On the contrary, Katie was like an empress-level figure in a historical drama. She had a strong background but was not favored.As long as Ruth did not make her marriage with Abel public, Demi would not allow anyone to reveal it in advance.When it came to opinions about Katie, Apollo was in line with Demi. He gave her a thumbs up. “You’re a good judge of character!”The party and accommodations at the Sky Hotel were in two different buildings.After leaving the party, Ruth went downstairs and headed for the guest house.The winding road through the hotel garden was quiet and long. The street lights were dim, and the sound of high heels was the only thing breaking the silence.Ruth suddenly felt that she had come to another spacetime. Some time ago, Abel wanted to tell her his real identity at this hotel. However, she was informed beforehand, so Abel’s plan was disrupted.Their positions changed today. Ruth could understand how Abel felt and believed he could too.So, she wante

    While Ruth was brainstorming, she heard the sound of the door opening and footsteps. Someone was approaching her. “Is the beauty awake? Look what you have done! I told you to invite her over. How could you be so rude?”It was an unfamiliar voice, but Ruth seemed to have heard it somewhere. She recalled it. It was the useless rich boy she met at the party.She cursed in her mind. Why did she have to meet such a lunatic?“Young Master… this woman is quite good at fighting. We could only make this kind of unwise decision,” another man explained in a low voice.“Really? A beauty with thorns? That’s perfect. I like women with strong characters!” Dillon waved his hand to signal that person to go out.The door was closed.The room became quiet again, and it made Ruth anxious.She pursed her lips and tried to calm down. “Who are you?” she asked cautiously.Dillon seemed to have heard something absurd. “Stop pretending. If you play hard to get even now, it’ll only get on my nerves.”He

    After saying that, Dillon did not bother to talk anymore nonsense and buried his face in Ruth’s neck.Ruth’s eyes turned cold. She tried her best to turn her wrists.She slowly gave up resisting, as if she was giving up. When Dillon let go of her hands, she grabbed him by the throat.Her right hand pressed the delicate watch on her wrist, and a thin needle flew out.Dillon sensed the danger and immediately tilted his head. The thin needle passed by his head and pierced his shoulder.The pain enraged him, and a hint of ruthlessness flashed in his almond eyes. He slapped Ruth again.“Since you don’t like the easy way, we’ll do this the hard way!”Bang!The door opened after being violently kicked.Dillon immediately turned his head and looked over impatiently. “Who asked you to come in? F*ck off…”Before Dillon could finish his sentence, a slender figure rushed in. Dillon did not even have time to be shocked before he was kicked off the bed.Abel looked at Ruth on the white be

    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!
