Chapter 869

Author: Moon in the Starlit River
Charles and Reina brought Ruth and Abel to greet the guests on Ruth’s side.

Well, they said they were guests from the bride’s side, but Ruth barely knew them.

She did not know as many people as Abel did.

Fortunately, Abel knew them all and had business dealings with them. Things went smoothly.

Halfway through, Reina received a call and instructed the waiter to greet Janet at the door.

“Are there any more guests coming?” Ruth asked curiously.

Reina shook her head. “She’s not considered a guest. She’s Notus’s wife.”

Ruth was confused.

Seeing that Reina had no other reaction, she did not ask further.

Before long, Janet came up right when Ruth and Abel were greeting the members of the Rivas family.

“We don’t need introductions here. Take your time. I’ll be back soon,” said Reina.

Ruth nodded. “Call me if you need anything.”

Ruth turned to the Rivas family members.

“Have you settled your family matters? When can you return to the training grounds?” She stared at Piers with a f

    The students of the Rivas Family Training Grounds only had one invitation.Only a few students were selected to attend. Hamish was not on that list.Seeing this, the team leader’s heart tightened. He hurriedly scanned his surroundings and counted the number of people. Indeed, one person was missing…However, at this juncture, he could not argue and could only lower his head apologetically.Julius saw his expression and guessed that he had made a mistake. He glared at him fiercely before turning to Hamish.“Be grateful that you could attend this wedding.”He turned his head to give Ruth and Abel his blessings and some advice.He wanted to change the topic and make Hamish shut up.However, things didn’t go according to plan. Things developed in the worst direction. Hamish interrupted him with a smile.“You’re giving them so much advice. Ms. Ruth is probably annoyed. Although you’re like her father, you’re not really her father. Even her own father doesn’t nag like this. You shou

    Everyone was shocked.Abel reached out and put his arm around Ruth’s shoulders. He glanced at Hamish and ignored him.Instead, he looked at the team leader’s face.“I have repeatedly told you that because of the Lovehart family’s actions, no one related to the Lovehart family is invited to the wedding. How did he end up here?”“I’m really sorry! It’s my fault! He wasn’t on the list at all…”“Why is he here?” Abel’s cold voice continued. He turned to look at Hamish. “If I remember correctly, you are under Denver. The Lovehart family also has a wedding banquet today. The second daughter of the Lovehart family is getting married. Why are you here instead of attending their wedding banquet?”His expression remained calm, not wavering at all because of his words.Everyone knew that on the eve of the wedding, Ruth had a conflict with the second daughter of the Lovehart family and even got someone to kick her out of her pre-booked wedding venue.Everyone in the city knew that they d

    The moment Ruth said this, Hamish’s face turned pale.Even the diplomat in charge of the city, who was watching the show calmly, changed his expression.“Ruth! Watch your words!”“Alright, the Chester family is a small family. They don’t have the guts to do such a thing. They’re probably just trying to stir up a conflict between our families.” Ruth stopped in time.The middle-aged man heaved a sigh of relief.The diplomat’s face was serious. He gestured to the side, and a group of people dressed as bodyguards tried to go forward and apprehend Hamish.Ruth stopped them in time. “Stop. Hamish is full of nonsense, but he’s talking about the Lockton family’s personal matters. Leave him to me.”The diplomat hesitated for a moment before quickly agreeing. “Alright, I won’t interfere in family matters.”If he got someone to apprehend Hamish, it would really prove that Hamish’s goal was to start an international dispute.Slandering the Duke of Endore was not something that was taken l

    The members of the Rivas family did not know what to do either. Julius wanted to say something several times but did not say anything in the end.Charles walked in. Realizing that the atmosphere was not right, he walked up to Ruth and asked worriedly.“What’s wrong? Why do you look so pale? If you’re tired, go back early. Leave this to me and your aunt…”“Dad, Mom, I’m tired. Can I leave this place to you?”Ruth interrupted him and turned to speak to Gabriel and Lyla.Gabriel and Lyla, who were standing at the side, were stunned by this turn of events.They had long known that the duke treated Ruth differently, but they never expected him to be Ruth’s biological father.This news was even more shocking than knowing that Julius was Ruth’s teacher.Hearing Ruth call them, Lyla finally came back to her senses. She composed herself and nodded with a smile. “Alright, do you want to go home or rest in the guest room? I’ll arrange it immediately.”Ruth thought for a moment. “Home.”

    In the parking lot.Ruth walked past a group of luxury cars expressionlessly and stopped in front of the iconic Rolls-Royce.She stood there for a few seconds as if she was still a little angry.She took two quick steps to the side and kicked the car that Charles had ridden in the morning. She said angrily, “Who asked you to lie to me? Literally, who asked you to lie to me?”Abel did not stop her. Seeing that she was almost done venting, he told her gently, “Alright, doesn’t it hurt your leg?”Ruth turned around and glared at him bitterly.Abel was silent for a moment before saying helplessly, “If you still haven’t vented your anger, get Eilam to bring people over to help you kick the car.”These words inexplicably made Ruth laugh.Abel looked at her smile and raised his eyebrows imperceptibly. “You’re laughing already? I thought you were really angry.”The fact that she was able to handle Hamish’s matter calmly proved that she was very accepting of this matter.She would not

    Ruth had asked out of curiosity before, but she had never gotten an accurate answer.Abel’s eyes darkened and his lips parted slightly. “You look pretty.”Stunned, Ruth stared at him. “Do you like me just because I’m pretty?”“You’re the prettiest. That’s why.” Abel pinched her chin.Ruth pouted and leaned against his chest, playing with his tie. “I didn’t know you were so shallow. Do you only like my good looks?”“You also have money. You’re the first woman who wanted to take care of me.”Ruth could not help but laugh.She tugged his tie down so that he bent down to look at her. “So, you like my money?”Abel lowered his strength and pressed his face very close to hers. His voice was low and magnetic. “I also like how you work hard for your career and how confident you are. I like how you can’t hide your smug face after you lure people into your traps. I like how you distinguish between love and hate and hate evil. You’re cold and arrogant to outsiders, but you’re silly and cut

    Ruth stared at him blankly.If she had been happy about the emerald bracelet earlier, it could not even compare to what she was feeling at this moment.Back then, she had told Abel that she did not reject Luna’s suggestion to hold her wedding on the same day because she did not want Luna to ruin her wedding. She always ruined things for her, after all.Although Abel had not said anything and had even listened to her vent about Luna multiple times, she did not expect Abel to go so far for her. He even got the set of jewelry back.“Are you unhappy?”Abel looked at her stunned expression and asked.Ruth retracted her gaze with a smile. However, her voice was calm. “I’m alright! Let’s go back first. It’s not good to be intimate in a public parking lot!”Abel was speechless.What was going on? Wasn’t she the one who started this by asking him about what he liked about her?Ruth walked briskly to the front passenger seat, but she suddenly thought of something. She quickly turned bac

    Charles looked at Julius’s reaction and narrowed his eyes in surprise.Julius could not bear to say it. “You should ask Reina about this.”Frederick heard the conversation and snorted. “Now that the dust has settled, she has fulfilled her sister’s request. She no longer has any scruples and will tell you the truth.”Rose’s death was also caused by that person. Reina could finally seek justice for her sister.Charles looked at the two of them with even more confusion. He subconsciously looked at the balcony outside the banquet.On the balcony, two women stood against the window.Reina’s slender hand held a glass of red wine and swirled it gently. She lowered her eyes and stared at the scarlet liquid in the glass with a faint smile on her lips.She was elegant and dignified. She looked approachable, but she gave off an air of mystery.This was Janet’s first impression of her.“I don’t know if I should call you Janet or Mrs. Lovehart,” Reina said gently, breaking the silence wi

    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!
