Meanwhile, the Goldwells were panicking.

Callum looked ten years older ever since the police told him they arrested Jasper.

Bella cried day and night until her eyes were swollen. When Luna finally returned, Bella started asking her for help as she wept.

“He’s your brother. You have to do something! Ask Mr. Nicholas to help get Jasper out of detention, please! We’re a family! We could have just settled this behind closed doors. Why did she have to kick up such a big fuss?”

Luna scowled impatiently. She always had to do something in exchange for favors from Nicholas. She had nothing to offer Nicholas to help Jasper.

After a moment, she said, “It’s not that I don’t want to help, I can’t. Jasper offended Abel Blakewell this time. No one can save him.”

Bella started crying again. “How on earth did he end up offending someone like him?!”

“How else? It’s all because of Ruth.”

“My poor son! Why is he so unlucky to have someone like Ruth as his sister?!”

Luna took a look at Callum.

    Each of the Goldwells had differing motives as they hosted Gabriel nervously. Luna silently observed Gabriel before she softly said, “Did you come here for my sister, Mr. Gabriel?”Gabriel put down his teacup and gave Luna an intimidating stare. “Your parents haven’t even spoken to me yet, so you have no right to speak to me. Did your parents even teach you any manners?”Luna’s face immediately turned red in shame. She had always been praised by her relatives and friends, and she was outstanding in everything she did. She had only wanted to alleviate the tension in the air, because it was clear that her parents were shocked and terrified by the situation. Hence, she did not expect Gabriel to rebuke her so mercilessly. But this was good. This meant that he was not pleased with the Goldwell family. He might even be here to force Ruth into divorcing Abel. “Don’t be so harsh on her, my friend. Luna is just worried about her sister and wants to be closer to you. She did not mean any

    They had just cleared their misunderstanding a few days ago, but Abel still had some things to do. Ruth had pridefully said that she would not wait for him, because she had plenty of things to do back at the office and build her wealth with every minute she had. She could not live in debauchery and ignore her work. Then, Abel had very sincerely asked her to stay (by seducing her), and she finally agreed to stay. So, yes. She had not been able to go back like she had planned. Ruth saw Kallan staring at the rearview mirror with a stupidly delighted grin. Clearly, he was busy watching her make a fool of herself, just as Abel was doing right now. How could she possibly let that happen?She sighed and shook her head in resignation as she said, “I can’t help it. My heart is too soft. You even begged me not to leave. How could I leave just like that? That’s too cruel!”Abel’s smile froze. Kallan was surprised. “Abel begged Ruth to stay? Seriously? How shocking!”Surprised but s

    Callum had opened his greedy mouth and asked for five hundred million dollars. He also asked for some real estate and even shamelessly asked for plenty of business opportunities. Thankfully, while Gabriel was a rash man, he was still not someone who would easily make promises in areas he did not understand. He did, however, agree to Callum’s demands for business opportunities. Then, Ruth remembered something. She sat up straight. “I forgot. Would Callum ask your dad to get Jasper out of jail?”Abel said, “Is there even a need for that question?”Of course, he would. Callum and Bella cared for their only son the most. The money was just an added bonus. When Abel saw Ruth’s expression darken and how she clenched her fists, he reminded her of something. “But you should know just who has the final say in this.”Ruth gave him a confused look. A few seconds later, she seemed to understand what he was saying, and she started massaging his shoulders earnestly while fawning over hi

    Bella asked, “What is it?”Luna drew closer and whispered into her ears. Bella’s expression changed. She said nothing and began to contemplate. “Dad obviously has no intention of offending the Blakewell family before getting the rest of the money, but how long do we have to wait? If we waste any more time, Jasper will continue to suffer, and I’ll suffer, too. Can you bear seeing that b*tch walk all over me?”While saying that, Luna’s eyes turned red as she thought of Ruth’s unfair treatment. Jasper was her brother. She would not stand by and watch other people mistreat him. On the day Gabriel visited, she went to Nicholas.Nicholas was in a good mood that day. After hearing Luna’s request, he agreed to help without hesitation, but on one condition, which was incredibly hard to meet.Luna was hesitant at first because it was not easy, but Nicholas’s promise was too tempting.He promised to marry her if she could meet his condition. The identity of being Nicholas’s wife was much

    “No matter how bad Ruth’s taste is, she’s still better than Pearl. At least, she won’t be easily attracted by appearance.”Tom was very dissatisfied when Abel said Pearl was interested in him because of his appearance, so he subconsciously refuted him. “What do you mean, Abel? What has it got to do with Pearl? Besides, how do you know that she’s attracted to my appearance? Maybe she’s attracted by my talent.”Abel put his cup down and stood up with a straight face. “The men Pearl used to fancy were all the famous handsome celebrities in the entertainment industry. A relationship that starts with lust is doomed to fail.”Tom spluttered. “You…”“If there’s nothing else, we’ll leave first. Please call us if there’s any new progress in Grandpa’s condition.”Tom said nothing. After Abel and Ruth left, he finally returned to his senses. Then, he roared in dissatisfaction, “When I said the man your wife invested in was average, I was talking about her ex, not you!”Abel did not have to

    The word “family” struck a chord in Ruth’s heart.Over the years, she had long accepted the fact that she had no family.Callum, Bella, Luna, and Jasper were a family, and they had nothing to do with her.However, Abel suddenly told her that he was her closest family. She had a weird feeling, and it filled her with joy.Ruth turned to look at him and purposely asked tentatively, “If I told you, would you help me seek justice?” Abel looked at her. “What do you think?”Ruth was dissatisfied with his answer. She poked his arm and said, “Say it. What I think may not be what you think. What if I misunderstand you?”“No ifs. I told you before. You can do whatever you want in front of me or the others.”Ruth fell silent when she received the expected answer. She could not hold back her joy and smiled. She drew closer and kissed Abel’s cheek. “Honey, thank you. But I can still handle such a small matter. I won’t hold back if I need your help,” Ruth softly said.Abel glanced at her an

    Tom smiled. Before he could speak, Pearl said, “But I already had my dinner, so I’m not hungry now.”He spluttered. Seeing that she did not realize he wanted to ask her out, he went straight to the point.“Even if you’ve had dinner, you can still accompany me. Where are you? I’ll go pick you up,” said Tom as he started his car engine.Pearl was dumbfounded. She did not expect him to ask her out. While she was surprised, she was also a little hesitant.She turned and glanced at the room. She still had a quarrel that was left unfinished.Tom casually said in a lazy and calm voice, “You don’t want to? Alright, Miss Amber, the receptionist, just said that she hasn’t had dinner yet and invited me to—”“I’ll go! I’ll send you the address. See you later!”“Okay. See you later.”Twenty minutes later, Pearl crouched in front of a high-end club in a colorful outfit. She looked somewhat down. Tom parked the car when he arrived, and Pearl slowly got in with a sullen face. She closed the

    Tom’s expression did not change in the slightest. He said, “How am I supposed to know about other people’s affairs?”“Aren’t you two close? You’re his buddy.”“Does being a buddy mean I should know all his private affairs? Do you know all Ruth’s secrets?”“We’re different.”“What’s the difference?”“Hmm.” Pearl pondered. “Strictly speaking, we've only just become friends. We’re not as close as you and Abel are.”Tom nodded. “If you two aren’t that close, why did you get angry at me because of her last time?”Pearl fell silent. Why was Tom so petty? It was a long time ago, but he still had not forgotten it.Besides, it was clearly his fault. He even sincerely apologized for it. When he brought it up again, why did he use such a dissatisfied tone?Pearl could not figure it out, so she stopped thinking about it and got down to business. “Don’t change the subject. We’re talking about Abel now.”She wanted to continue the conversation, but the waiter interrupted them to serve th

    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!
