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

    It seemed that Dillon did not understand what he had done wrong.Abel wanted to get up, but Ruth stretched her hand and grabbed the edge of his clothes. Her movement was as light as a cat’s.He quickly sat down and looked down at her. “What’s wrong? Does your body hurt?”Ruth shook her head. There were tear marks on her face, but she was much calmer now. She wrapped an arm around Abel’s neck and got up with his help. “Take me away. I don’t want to stay here.”Her voice was hoarse, but it had regained its prideful edge. She hugged Abel with complete dependence and trust.Abel grabbed her waist tightly and pursed his lips.He did not respond to her immediately. “Which hand did he use to touch you?”Ruth remembered it very well and answered without hesitation. “Left hand.” Abel nodded. He bent down and lifted her into his arms. When he passed by the bathroom, he coldly said, “Break his left hand.”Kallan did not answer.He initially wanted to dissuade Abel. After all, Frank dot

    Ruth subconsciously took the ice pack.She sensed his movements, and the shame she felt a while ago returned. She curled up. “I can do it…”Before she could finish, she slipped and went under the water because she didn’t have the strength nor speed to catch herself in time.A big hand pulled her out. Ruth choked on water and coughed in embarrassment. She grabbed Abel’s arm with both hands as if it was a straw. Abel’s clothes were completely wet.When he saw the scene in front of him and felt the touch on his arm, he closed his eyes and suppressed his stirred emotions.He was not as calm as he appeared on the surface. He hastily helped Ruth wash her body and picked a bath towel to wrap her up. However, Ruth backed away uncooperatively.“I don’t feel well. Let me stay for a little longer,” she said under her breath. She sounded aggrieved and weak, and her voice even trembled.Abel’s heart ached, and he looked at her for a long time. Then, he put his hands on her shoulders and be

    Abel was not as surprised as Ruth imagined. He only frowned and turned her body to check it. “Did you hurt yourself? This won’t do. Let’s go to the hospital for a checkup.”He thought she had no strength because she had just woken up. After hearing what she said, he became worried.Then, he bent down to pick her up and walked out.Ruth did not want to go to the hospital, but had no strength to resist. She could only say helplessly, “I’m fine. I just inhaled some knock-out drugs, so I have no energy. It’s too embarrassing to go to the hospital!” She had already embarrassed herself in front of Apollo. She did not want a fourth person to see her miserable state.However, Abel would not do as she wished. “I won’t let outsiders know about it.”Ruth wanted to resist, but she knew it would be useless.The Rolls-Royce rushed to the private hospital in the dark.After receiving the message, Tom rushed over and personally gave her a physical examination.He heaved a sigh of relief when

    There was no one besides the Rivas family who could design such an exquisite hidden weapon.They were also good at using poison and did not lie about it.Tom did not dare to mock Ruth indirectly anymore and asked with a serious expression, “Did you think about what you would do if the hospital found out? And what if he really died?”“Excessive self-defense. Abel can take care of it.” She would not be scared even if he could not handle it.She heard some footsteps.Abel came back.Tom quickly turned to him. “Send him to this hospital. You’ll get in trouble if you send him to any other.”“I know. He’ll arrive later.”Tom was speechless.Hah. It turned out that the two had planned everything.Tom waved at them and got up to leave without being told.However, he dawdled. He looked at Ruth’s wrist and did not go. “That thing looks so cool. Give me one.”He asked for one righteously and confidently.However, he was talking to Abel.He did not even think about it. Such a rare th

    As Ruth spoke, she supported her body with her hands on the bed and slowly got up from the headboard.Abel got up to help her sit up straight.Ruth spoke with a serious expression. After feeling unwell for a bit, she became energetic again, and Abel’s mood also improved. “Are you praising yourself or me?”“You, of course. But I’m also smart, so I’m praising myself too.”Abel smiled and said nothing. Then, he suddenly changed the topic. “But was this watch really designed by your friend?”The watch’s style was actually very similar to Seema’s style. That was why Abel asked that.“Yeah. Her name is Kaylen. I met her abroad, but she is a Sommersettian. Her name here was Dulcie Rivas.” Ruth did not hide it from Abel and told him everything.Abel nodded in satisfaction. He could tell that it was a girl from the name.Besides, he had heard of Kaylen. She worked in Seema’s workshop. Since she was Ruth’s friend, it was not surprising that Ruth could get wedding rings designed by Seem

    Kallan imitated Apollo and whispered to him. However, he did not tell Apollo that Abel had called him and specifically asked him to send Dillon to Tom’s private hospital.Tom was a well-known doctor in the Imperial City. Abel would not ask him to help for a b*stard like Dillon.There had to be something fishy going on.However, the members of the Blakewell family were already sitting at the hospital, so they could only play it by ear.The door of the emergency room opened.Dillon’s parents immediately rushed to the doctor. “How was the operation? Is our son okay?”Tom removed the mask and politely explained everything. “The left shoulder blade has split, and the nerve tissue has become necrotic. After the operation, his life is no longer in danger. However, we couldn’t restore his arm since he was sent over too late.”Dillon’s mother’s face turned pale after hearing the news. She could hardly stand still.Frank also came over in disbelief. “Wasn’t it a fracture? Why was his lif

    Many people from the Blakewell family were watching Abel.Frank was among them and knew who Ruth was the moment she went to the company.Initially, he did not believe it and thought Abel would not fall in love with a notorious woman like her, so he did not expose it. He thought that as long as Abel did not bring Ruth home, he would wait and see how things developed for the time being. Who would have known she would turn the family upside down before she visited them?“Bring that woman here right now! Bring her over! I want her to kneel and apologize to Dillon!”“Just apologize? Dillon became like this because of her. She must pay a much heavier price for it!”“Yeah, Dillon is still young. What will he have to do if he can’t use his left hand anymore?”As a matter of course, Frank and Dillon’s family condemned Ruth out of righteous indignation.They did not think that Dillon had only himself to blame.Apollo was so angry that he could not say anything.Kallan frowned and tho

    Her face hurt. It was burning.Ruth thought. “Thank you all, but I’m so embarrassed I want to die.”“Are you okay?” Solomon’s gentle voice made Ruth sigh lightly and accept reality. “It’s nothing serious. Why did you all come? Who told you?”“Why do you ask that? Did you plan to hide it from us?” Vincent glared at her. “Do you not see us as friends?”“No, I mean, there’s nothing to mention about such a shameful thing,” Ruth muttered helplessly. Everyone was stunned.Solomon sat down in the chair next to her. He had been silent since he came in. He frowned even more when he heard Ruth’s words. “Why do you feel ashamed? You’re a victim. The one who should feel ashamed is the wrongdoer!”Ruth had become notorious after a rumor said that she was promiscuous three years ago.However, the Ruth he knew never cared about reputation. He did not expect her to feel ashamed after encountering such an incident.“Did the Blakewell family ask you to hide it because they thought it would b

    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!
