Chapter 221

It was a question, but it was also a statement. Ruth nodded with a grunt. She had nothing to hide about it, anyway. After all, if Abel wanted to check how her company was doing, he could do so easily. Abel was silent for a few more seconds, as if he was waiting for her to continue, but Ruth showed no intention to continue talking. She just picked a watch, put it on, and started putting on her shoes. After some thinking, he asked, “How do you intend to take care of it?”Ruth did not even look up when she answered casually, “If Callum wants to target Lockton Entertainment, he will definitely use the connections he has to put stumbling blocks in my path, but I have certain connections that he can never hope to touch.”Abel’s eyes crinkled into a smile, and he gently asked a leading question, “Such as?”Ruth grabbed her handbag, stood up straight, and faced him. “Such as the genius investor of the entertainment industry, Harper Williams. She’s coming back next month and will join

Chapter 222

Tom was handsome and looked like royalty. It was as if he was born with regality and elegance. Just like Ruth, he gave off a noble and prideful air. Both Ruth and Tom were completely different from Pearl. This was something she was well aware of. Hence, since she was not confident, she wore flashy items to appear a member of the upper-class society. That was also why she was envious and admired people like them from the bottom of her heart. When Tom asked her the question a second time, she found it incredibly attractive. Pearl gritted her teeth as she thought about how Ruth always bullied her and pulled pranks on her. She did not bat an eyelid even when she betrayed her!Pearl did not want to adopt those annoying traits. She was different from Ruth!“No. I’ll wait for her. If I leave now, she’ll stop being my friend.” Her head drooped low, and she looked like she really did not want to stay but had no other choice. Tom cocked an eyebrow in surprise. He was not expecting

Yeah… When Ruth put it that way, the excuse did sound kind of fake. Pearl went a little overboard there. Could she get a chance to redo?Of course not. Ruth would not give her that chance.Five minutes later, at the overpass of Riverside Road, Pearl stood by the roadside and refused to budge from where she clung to a signboard for dear life. She yelled at the Ferrari that left without a care in the world, “Ruth, you witch! If some car comes and kills me, I’m going to haunt you!”A car came charging in her direction, which terrified her so much that she hugged the signboard even tighter and shut her eyes in nervousness. It was Monday, and it was the morning rush hour. There were plenty of cars on the overpass, and they were whizzing down the road at lightning speed. There were no pedestrian underpasses nearby, so Pearl did not dare to move. The scorching sun rose to the sky and cast its bright rays on the ground. It also shone on the alloy signboard, so the rod that was curre

Pearl felt like she was about to shrivel under the sun. When she saw a familiar face, she felt as excited as if she had just seen a long-lost relative. Tears spilled down her face. She stumbled into the car and started bawling. She cried so loudly that it shocked Tom. He quietly handed her a piece of tissue. At this point, Pearl had completely forgotten about keeping up her image. “How could she do this?” she complained while crying. “Ruth is… How could she? She’s evil! I got a tan! Sob… I’m not going to be friends with her anymore. I won’t talk to her anymore, sob…”Tom was struck dumb. So… she was sad because she got a tan?He pursed his lips and wanted to correct her by saying that this was really dangerous, and that Ruth did not treat her as a friend. He also wanted to warn her to stop talking to her when he saw a familiar car in his peripheral vision. He remembered it. It was Pearl’s Ferrari. She had come with it in the morning. Pearl was in his car, so was the one

Then, forget Eternal Corporation, other investors would pour in, and they would have many other choices. Ruth cocked an eyebrow and asked seriously, “Would you believe me if I told you I was Harper Williams?”Just as she asked the question, she got a sense of deja vu. When Abel handed the property ownership agreement of the main mansion of Kingsland Manor residential area to her, he had asked her a similar question. “What if I told you that I’m the richest person in Sommerset?” At that time, she had not considered that possibility at all. She just thought that what Abel said was ridiculous. Who would believe that the man who married her for money would be the person who lacked money the least in the whole country?“Got it.” Nathan’s eyes shone with excitement. He picked up the paper and turned to leave. Ruth called after him. “Wait! Come back!”Nathan turned back. “What is it?”She just stared at him in disbelief. “You believed me? Just like that? Why? Don’t you find it

Despite having finished his report, Kallan did not intend to leave just yet. He looked like he still had something to say. Abel gave him a look. “If you have something to say, say it.”Kallan gave a serious suggestion. “Eternal Corporation has a pretty bad opinion about Lockton Entertainment after losing one of their leaders. They might cause trouble to the madam if they’re going to negotiate a partnership. Should you…”“She can handle it. She doesn’t need my help.”Kallan said nothing. For some reason, he could hear traces of resentment in Abel’s voice. He had been working for years beside Abel and understood him better than the Blakewell family. Abel was an all-powerful figure in the business field, but he was dense when it came to emotions. He did not help Ruth when he should, and, when he did, he did not publicize his deeds. How could he make the madam happy like this?At the risk of having his bonus deducted, Kallan gave an earnest suggestion. “If the madam can take ca

He did as he promised. Ruth saw all that he did to make it up to her. All the things he did to get into her good graces made her feel ashamed to ask him for parking fees. She could only secretly offset it for him in her heart. “You’ve already given me enough. I’m honored to receive the treatment of the richest man’s wife,” Ruth said coolly and put her arm on his chest to maintain a distance. Abel looked down and stared at her for a long time before he sighed softly and kissed her forehead. “I’m going on a business trip tomorrow. If you need any help, go to Joseph.”Ruth was really averse to his affection, but her eyes lit up when she heard that he was leaving. “How long will you be away?”“For around five days,” Abel said gently.She was slightly disappointed. “Five?”“Yes. I’ll try my best to finish work as soon as possible so that I can—”“You don’t have to!” Ruth waved her hand. “There’s no hurry. Besides, it’s better to be more meticulous at work. Once you’re done, you c

He made it up to her by giving her things, and she helped keep his secret. Their marriage could now be maintained in this manner. Wasn’t that enough?There was no need for him to pretend to be kind and considerate to throw her heart into confusion. “Me? Acting? What exactly am I doing that you think is unnecessary? And how exactly am I acting?” Abel narrowed his eyes. “Those things you said just now. They’re not necessary.” Ruth grew stern. “We only got married to get what we need, and thus, we just need to live in harmony. Your fake concern and deliberate acts of intimacy are not within the contract. I’m not in the mood nor have the duty to act with you.”As she spoke, she wiped her forehead, as if she wanted to wipe off the mark he left on her. Her words and actions reminded Abel of the kiss he gave. The helplessness he felt toward Ruth giving him the cold-shoulder had turned into him trying to appease her and showing that he would miss her when he left. He tried to convi

Ruth’s mind was in clouds, and she only belatedly realized this was what he meant when he said that she would know once she tried. Abel did not do anything else. He only buried his head in the crook of her neck as his chest heaved. “You said that we got to know each other after living together all this time, didn’t you? Did you actually think that I would waste my time putting on an act before someone who is of no importance to me?“You never even asked me whether I liked men and just decided that I did based on rumors and the image you cooked up of me based on those same rumors.“I must say, it must have been really hard for you to maintain the marriage with that belief, considering the fact that you’d have to endure great humiliation to do so.”Once he said that, he pulled back, got up, and headed to the washroom. The sound of flowing water rose. Ruth laid on the bed in the same position as before while she stared at the ceiling. All she could think of were his words just now.

The apology came abruptly, but Abel understood what she was trying to convey. When she woke up after she got drunk, he apologized to her. After his explanation, he asked what she had to say. She apologized reluctantly, threw a tantrum, and left after slamming the door shut. This time, she was as aloof and indifferent as ever, as if it was a casual remark on her part, but her rapidly fluttering eyelashes betrayed her nervousness. Since she had just woken up, her voice was a little lethargic and soft, which made her sound like she was acting cute. Her long hair spilled over her shoulders, and the straps of her nightgown slid off her shoulders. Abel had no resistance against how defenseless she looked. He grabbed her hand. Ruth instinctively looked up and saw his deep-set, black eyes. “For being a good girl who acknowledges her mistakes and takes responsibility for them, you should be rewarded,” he said. “Rewarded?” Ruth was puzzled. Abel nodded and fixed his eyes on her
