Chapter 637

Author: Moon in the Starlit River
Abel did not say anything, and alarm bells rang in Ruth’s head.

Oh no, as the guilty party, how could she even think about falling asleep?

“T-To be honest, it was just okay. I wasn’t really in the mood—”

“You promised to bathe in the hot spring with me, but ended up enjoying it without me,” Abel said in a low voice. It was hard to tell what he was feeling.

Ruth scratched her head and thought of a simple solution. “Why don’t I stay with you for a while longer?”

Abel nodded. “Sure.”

Ten minutes later, Abel leaned comfortably against the side of the hot spring with his arms spread open and his eyes closed. His sharp facial features were blurred by the warm mist.

Ruth was wrapped in a robe as she knelt by the side and massaged his shoulders diligently.

“Honey, is there any point in soaking alone? Isn’t it bad to enslave me like this?”

Abel lifted his eyes and glanced at her. His voice was cold. “Do you think it’s fun to soak alone?”

Ruth was speechless.

Fine, she had been too ca

    He said that after doing something wrong, one had to sincerely apologize before they could be forgiven. If she wanted to express her sincerity, she had to take the initiative.She had always carried out this principle and felt that it was quite useful. But tonight, it seemed to have hit a roadblock.Had she lost her charm?Just as she was feeling puzzled and lamenting how difficult it was to figure out a man, Abel let go of her and helped her adjust her nightdress. He then pulled her into his arms.“Good night, dear wife.”Abel’s “dear wife” was very frustrated at the moment. Her heart felt like a tangled mess of threads. The more she tried to unravel it, the more confused she became.She widened her eyes and stared at the crystal chandelier above her head for a long time before looking at Abel beside her. “Honey, are you taking revenge on me?”Seeing her burning with desire, tossing and turning, unable to sleep... Was this his strategy?If so, he had succeeded.“No, I just sa

    Because the Goldwell family’s mansion was seized, Callum brought his family to Luna’s new house.Callum had originally bought the house in Kingsland Manor residential area with his own money. However, it was registered under Luna’s name.Hence, when they reached the door, they were stopped and the homeowner had to be contacted before they could be let in.“Are you new here? You don’t even recognize me? Luna, the owner who just moved in a few months ago, is my daughter!” Callum explained in exasperation.The guard was unmoved. “I’m sorry, Mr. Goldwell, but with so many people, we can’t allow entry unless the homeowner personally lets you in.”“You…!”“Geez, did you manage to call her? What’s wrong with Luna? Why isn’t she picking up the call?” Eunice urged Bella unhappily.“No one’s answering. She must be busy. Let’s wait for a while, she’ll get back to me later,” Bella said.“Didn’t she leave the industry? She doesn’t have a job, so what’s there to be busy with? She might be pl

    The security guard turned to look at her and said in a puzzled voice, “Miss Ruth, uh...”“Is there an owner named Luna in the area?” Ruth asked him.The security guard had obviously looked this up. “Yes, but Miss Luna’s identity is complicated, and her relationship with Mr. Goldwell is unclear, so we want to seek her opinion.”The people who lived here were either rich or powerful. The security guards dealt with the residents here every day, so it was only natural that they had a clear understanding of their relationships.If it was the old Luna, they might have let Callum’s group in. But she had since become a member of the Lovehart family, so they did not dare to act rashly.“Miss Luna’s house was paid for by Mr. Goldwell. No matter what the relationship is, he has the right to enter.”Ruth said something fair, and the people outside straightened up.The security guard nodded and was about to let them in when he heard Ruth continue, “But it’s not good to suddenly let so many r

    He went home nervously and realized that Ruth and Abel had not returned yet. He asked Mrs. Greenwell about the current situation before he went to the balcony on the second floor and waited quietly for their return.However, when they saw their car drive in, he also noticed the group of people led in by the security guards.He put down his binoculars and took a closer look in disbelief. Then, he could not help but stand up.What was going on?The moment the two of them entered, they saw Apollo rush down from the second floor. He said excitedly, “Abel, Sis, do you know there are pursuers behind you?”Abel frowned and looked at him unhappily. “Why are you back again?”Apollo stuttered, “Well...”Was there anyone who despised their own brother as much as Abel did? Ruth would not say anything like that to Apollo!Ruth changed into the slippers Abel handed her and asked, “What pursuers?” Apollo noticed the difference in their interaction. “Have you two reconciled?”Ruth glared at

    Ruth was in a good mood at the moment.So, she kindly said, “On the balcony of the guest room upstairs, you can see Luna’s house, right? Why don’t you go up and take a look?”Apollo’s eyes lit up, and he went upstairs eagerly.After their meal, Abel went to the study. Ruth was bored, so she went up to check on Apollo.Five minutes later, the two of them leaned against the balcony railing and held a small pair of binoculars each as they observed what was happening in the distance. From time to time, they would comment on what was happening.“So, there are security guards here too, quite a setup! You know, that old man from the Parsons family looks useless, but he’s quite strong! When he swung that cane at Callum, it looked painful even to me!”“Gosh, how can someone who spends hours outside the house be considered useless?”“Why do you think he hit him?”“Don’t you see? That’s the master bedroom downstairs. If Callum threw his things out, that means Andrew wanted the master bedr

    “What banquet?” Ruth became curious.Apollo said, “It’s for Notus’s return. He specially organized an anniversary celebration for Lovehart Corporation, and there will be a banquet for the guests.”Ruth frowned. “The Lovehart Corporation’s anniversary celebration? Did they invite you?”Apollo said, “It’s not just me; they’ve also invited the Blakewell family! Although Mom doesn’t like the Lovehart family, when it comes to business cooperation, we have to attend, even if it’s just for show.”Besides, Notus had spread the news that many young talents had been invited to the party for networking.Simply put, it was also a matchmaking banquet for the rich to arrange romantic relationships for their children.Some were even speculating that the Lovehart family had completely given up on the heir completely and were placing their hopes on a future in-law.“Marrying someone to jointly manage the family assets?” Ruth frowned. “Wouldn’t that be like what happened to my family? Callum is a

    Over the next few days, Ruth spent her daytime reorganizing Lockton Corporation, and in the evenings, she sat on the balcony to watch the drama.As Apollo did not get a definite answer yet, he would occasionally come to watch the show with her.He also sometimes dropped hints as a reminder that Ruth had yet to help him.On one particular night, the two of them were watching some drama as usual when Apollo finally realized an important problem. “Speaking of which, does Luna know how lively it is at her house? Has she returned yet?”Ruth said casually, “She’s been busy with the divorce and returning to her single life. She wants to perform well at the banquet tomorrow and find a new partner.”Apollo sighed. “Wow, she changes her partners like she changes her clothes.”Ruth was speechless and thought. “This kid sure is witty.”She tapped her fingers on the railing. Her tone became thoughtful. “Callum hides his tracks too well. I haven’t found any evidence against him!”Ruth was

    At hearing her approaching, Abel raised his head slightly to look at her, then he froze.Ruth was wearing a black dress that outlined her exquisite figure. Her long hair curled gently, and her high heels made her legs look even longer.As she slowly walked to him, her skirt swayed gracefully, and it was hard to take his eyes away.“Do I look nice?” Ruth smiled brightly.“Very nice.”Ruth raised her eyebrows slightly. Couldn’t he have praised her more?Just as she was about to speak, she heard the stylists behind her. “Mr. Blakewell’s evaluation went from ‘alright’ to ‘very nice.’ It’s the best praise and affirmation for us.”Ruth turned to look at them. “He only said ‘alright’ last time?”Amy nodded. “Yup.” Ruth’s gaze slowly shifted to Abel, and her voice took on a sarcastic tone. “Mr. Blakewell, you have very high standards, don’t you? What style was it that made you so displeased?”Abel chuckled and picked up his blazer. He placed it in the crook of his arm. With his othe

    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!
