Chapter 618

ผู้เขียน: Moon in the Starlit River
After a long while, George sighed in relief. “Forget it. Ruth has been bearing grudges since she was young. You might not be able to persuade her.”

The conversation was still about persuasion, but George actually did not bat an eye when Abel mentioned the secret.

After a few seconds, Abel could not help but ask in a low voice, “Mr. George, why did you and Miss Rose choose to hide it?”

“Revealing the truth will be too hard on her.”

“But it’s not her fault.”

“That’s right. Children shouldn’t bear the grudges of the previous generation.”

George did not seem surprised that Abel knew about it. Since he brought it up, he could see that Ruth was aware of it, too. If one of them knew, how could the other not?

Abel looked at him and did not miss the expression on his face. He suddenly said in a hushed voice, “What I mean is that all of this actually has nothing to do with her. Why did you create such a secret?”

George finally looked at him. He was more shocked by this than when he heard

    To put it bluntly, this plan was part of her plan. Husbands and wives should help each other, right?“I’ve seen the plan for the launch of Lady in Red. The first batch of pre-sale products will be launched on New Year’s Day. It’s quite reasonable to set the date of launch to after our wedding. As for the profit share, we’ll charge the production and raw materials to Blakewell Corporation according to your requirements. Blakewell Corporation will only take 30% of the profit.”Ruth’s eyes snapped open, and she whipped around to look at Abel.He wasn’t even negotiating despite the unfair terms?He just agreed to it!Ruth was feeling embarrassed for being so greedy.Sensing the change in her emotions, the corners of Abel’s lips curled up slightly, as if he had found a way to solve the puzzle and was capitalizing on the advantage.“Sunset Resort is owned by a friend of mine. After he renovated the place, he left me a private hot spring for my exclusive use. I heard it’s one of the

    After what happened at Luna’s press conference, that b*stard Nicholas did not even offer his condolences. This time, he was adding insult to injury.Callum had known all along that Nicholas was only interested in his own gain and was not a good person. But he never expected him to be so ruthless when he turned against the Goldwell family.He hung up the call and immediately dialed Nicholas’s number.The person on the other end seemed to have been expecting his call because it was answered quickly. “Hello?”Callum was so angry that he dropped all pretenses and interrogated him, “Nicholas, what is the meaning of this?!” The voice on the other end was soft as always. “Dad, what’s wrong?”Callum took a deep breath. “Why is the bank demanding money now? Didn’t we agree to return it a year later? We’re family, but you doubt I can’t pay it back?”“About that...”Nicholas sounded a little helpless. “With Lockton Corporation’s current situation, the risk management department will defi

    “Your sister doesn’t even want it anymore. What’s wrong with letting Samantha wear it? Besides, we’re all blood relatives. What’s Luna’s is also Samantha’s!”“How shameless can you be? What kind of logic is that?!”“Oh my god, Callum, look at what your son is saying!”Seeing that they were about to start arguing again, Callum felt like his head was about to explode.He wanted to open his mouth to say something, but then Bella appeared out of nowhere, so the battlefield became even more chaotic.Compared to the noisy quarreling atmosphere of the Goldwell mansion, Kingsland Manor was especially quiet these past two days.In order to worsen the situation of Lockton Corporation to the extent where the bank could urge Callum to pay, Ruth did not deal with any of Lockton Corporation’s affairs during this period of time. She was only occasionally urged to provide progress reports on her cooperation with Seema.Everyone suspected that the bold words she had said to the board of director

    It was only when she was carried to the sofa that she realized what he meant.He saw her dressed like this, so he was certain that she was here to seduce him?!Ruth smiled faintly. She nimbly moved out of his arms and sat on the office chair beside him. She crossed her legs casually, looking relaxed and alluring.“I just saw that you were obsessed with work and wanted to draw your attention. Haven’t you ever heard of ‘clickbait’?”Abel had heard this term before, and he was successfully hooked.Abel stood up from the sofa and casually unbuttoned the top two buttons of his shirt. His face and voice were both calm. “To a certain extent, it’s a form of deception.”Ruth raised an eyebrow. “It’s just in the title. Only those with ulterior motives would be fooled.”Abel did not speak and took two steps forward. Ruth lifted her leg and pressed it against his advancing leg.The hem of her skirt slid down a little as she moved. Her legs were crossed elegantly, and under the warm light,

    [Wasn’t there a rumor about Blakewell Corporation’s person-in-charge and Miss Ruth being together? Is this meant to debunk those rumors?][As expected of the richest man in the city. Ruthless!][Is it possible that he acted so quickly because of Miss Ruth? After all, everyone knows that Miss Ruth doesn’t get along with her father.][The ship sails on!]Initially, many people mocked Ruth and Lockton Corporation. However, for some reason, the Ruth-and-Abel shippers occupied the high ground again. The comments section was filled with joy.They were more confident than Ruth and Abel themselves, and felt that there would be some development soon.Ruth smiled and turned to ask Abel if Joseph was steering the public again.Coincidentally, she saw Abel open the drawer under his desk to take something out. She looked down and saw a very small object in the neatly arranged drawer…Her eyes locked onto it until the drawer closed.Sensing her gaze, Abel looked up at her. “What’s wrong?”

    Ruth lowered her eyes and tapped away or scrolled absentmindedly on her phone.Instead of answering, she asked, “Is there anything important in your study?”Abel’s lips curled up in amusement. “Is there anything unimportant in my study?”Ruth’s hand froze on the screen.Yes, for a businessman like him, the study was filled with work-related documents. There were numerous contracts, documents, and information stored here. There was nothing here in this study that was not important.“I see,” Ruth said lightly.Abel felt that her reaction was strange, but when he thought about how her thoughts often jumped here and there, he thought that she was just chatting as usual, so he did not pursue the matter. He simply lowered his head and continued working.Hearing the sound of the documents rustling again, Ruth opened her eyes and looked at his side profile until she dazed out.Feeling a little depressed, she quietly got up and returned to the bedroom.…...Ruth did not sleep well t

    Apollo and Ruth walked to the dining room as they chatted.Abel pursed his lips and watched Ruth blankly. Her mood did not seem right. It was as if she had been ignoring him since last night.His suspicion continued all the way to the dining table and was confirmed again.Every time he stretched out his utensils, he would be intercepted halfway. Then, he would watch helplessly as his favorite food went to Apollo’s plate instead.“Here, this is for you! It must be hard on you to come over so early in the morning!” Ruth was overly enthusiastic.No matter how dense Apollo was, even he had noticed that something was wrong.Feeling his brother’s sharp glare, he felt as if he was sitting on pins and needles. “Sis, it’s enough. I’m actually not that hungry. How about I wait in the car?”“That won’t do! You’re still growing. Have this, too!” As she spoke, Ruth took away the only cup of warm milk that was in front of Abel.Apollo was speechless. He was already a full-grown adult.Abel

    Ruth had always adhered to the principle of settling internal conflicts in private. Besides, how could she show weakness in front of a woman who liked to flaunt her connection to Abel?With a graceful twist of her wrist, she took hold of Abel’s arm naturally.“No, thank you, and my husband never neglects me. You’re too kind, Miss Katie. Why didn’t you bring your sister along?”Katie’s smile froze.Luna was like a label now. She had humiliated both the Lovehart family and the entertainment industry.It was rare to have a gathering with old friends. Katie had hoped that everyone would have the good sense not to bring up that woman. But to her surprise, she was being put through the ringer before she even reached the gathering.“Ah, Miss Katie, why do you look so pale? Did I say something wrong?” Ruth asked in surprise.Katie pursed her lips and looked at her with an inexplicable expression. “I can’t really get used to the idea of having a sister yet, but if you’re willing, I don’t

    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!
