Semua Bab Yes, I'm the Richest Man's Wife: Bab 281 - Bab 290

Lyla frowned. “What on earth are you saying? Dillon is clearly the one—”“It’s fine. I’ve already apologized.” Abel took over the conversation. His father had called him in the afternoon and ordered him and Ruth to apologize to Dillon. Otherwise, Abel would not have even stepped into Dillon’s room. Lyla was flabbergasted. Puzzlement was clear on her face. Did someone possess her son’s body?He apologized? For something like this?Apollo’s cold voice solved the mystery for her. “We did go to apologize to him, but, for some reason, we ended up beating him up again.”Dillon should have been well enough to get transferred to a normal ward today, but, by the looks of it, he would have to continue staying in the ICU. Gabriel felt speechless. “So, don’t talk about apologizing anymore. If I see him again, he can forget about ever stepping out of the hospital,” Abel casually stated his stance. Gabriel’s expression turned dark, and he slammed his teacup down on the table. Right w

Ruth told Lyla that she would reserve a set of the newest series for her and send it to her house. After all, there was no such thing as a free lunch. Even if Lyla was her mother-in-law, there was no need for Ruth to owe her a favor. Besides, this was the first time they officially met. Who knew whether this offer was actually a different sort of test?In any case, Ruth could seize whatever she wanted through her own power. Meanwhile, the atmosphere in the study upstairs was much graver than the atmosphere downstairs. Gabriel had always preferred things to be peaceful and was even a bit of a blindly devoted son. That was why he was really strict with Abel. This time, he also stated his viewpoint on the matter clearly. “Your grandfather is really angry right now, and your stubbornness is only fanning the flames. We won’t accept unfilial children in the family. If you continue being so stubborn, I’m not going to show you mercy.”“How exactly are you not going to show me mercy?

Ruth looked at him in surprise. “It’s Mom’s gift for you. She asked me to pass it to you.”Ruth was still surprised. Did Lyla call him over before they left to give him this?Ruth took the envelope and opened it. It had the check she rejected and a member card for a high-end beauty salon called the Prime Jewel. Ruth had heard of it before. It was known as a gathering spot for all the affluent ladies in the Imperial City. The Prime Jewel operated on a members-only basis. Not only did the applicants need to be rich, but they also had to have their identities verified before they could become members. Hence, the beauty salon’s member card was basically proof that one was part of a top-class family. Neither the Goldwell family nor the Lockton family were rich and powerful enough to reach that level yet…“I believe our mother isn’t stingy. Do you still not have enough money to reclaim Lockton Corporation?” Abel’s cool voice interrupted her thoughts. Ruth felt awkward. “Honest

Pearl stared at the purse in her hands in silence. Even though the ending to this entire affair was not ideal, she was still satisfied with it. She stormed away pridefully with Ruth’s purse in hand. Abel watched the entire affair with a scowl. Wasn’t Ruth supposed to be aloof and indifferent?Why was she comforting every sad person?And she did it with such ease!Ruth did not notice Abel’s displeasure. Once Pearl was far away, she turned to Tom. “What’s going on? Did you make her angry?”Tom just crossed his arms and leaned against the closet beside him. “Who would dare to? Are you here to ask about Mr. George? That’s wonderful. I won’t have to go to your house to tell you about him now.”Ruth shook her head. “I wasn’t discharged. They told me to come back for another check later, though I’m also here to ask about my grandfather.”Tom’s expression froze, and he finally understood what she meant. Due to the special circumstances leading to Ruth’s hospitalization, Tom had p

Abel led Ruth out of the room. When they left, Ruth said, “It’s the address of the restaurant Pearl went to.”Tom was confused. When they left, he grumbled grudgingly under his breath, “Didn’t you say you’ll give me that cool watch? Women change their minds so easily…”That might have been what he said, but he did not reject the offer. He stared at the door while in deep thought. After speaking to Ruth a few times, he became increasingly aware that she was not as she seemed. She was smart and courageous, completely unlike the person the rumors painted her to be: a woman who lusted after men and gained her position through them. Considering how naive Pearl was and how meticulous Ruth was, if they were friends, Ruth would definitely have Pearl completely under her control. This was pretty dangerous... He had to give Pearl a warning. Once Tom made up his mind, he took off his coat and headed to the restaurant. ……On the way back, Ruth leaned against the window and watch
