Chapter 281

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

Lyla’s smile fell away. She sat up straight and leaned back into her chair. “It doesn’t really matter whether we’re satisfied with you or not. My son has his own opinions. I’ve always respected and trusted him.”Ruth pursed her lips. “You’ve looked into me before, so you should know about my reputation.”“Are you really that sort of person?”Ruth was stunned. “No.”“That’s settled, then. The richer a family is, the more dirty secrets and wicked people it has. I’ve lived for decades, and I’ve seen plenty of such things. I can tell whether rumors like that are real or not.”Ruth said nothing, but was a little surprised that Lyla was so rational and open-minded.“As for last night, as a mother, I definitely wish that you could think of the big picture and be considerate for Abel, but, as a woman, I’m in full support of what my son did. If he got married, he should protect his wife.”Ruth tilted her head and focused on the crux of the problem. “Do you want me to think of the big p

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?

Half an hour later, Abel and Gabriel left the study. One of them was calm, while the other was in a gloomy mood. Abel beckoned Ruth over and motioned for her that they were leaving. Lyla wanted to make the two of them stay, but Gabriel just glumly asked her to go upstairs with him by saying that he had something important to discuss with her. With an expression of resignation, Lyla only called Abel over to whisper something to him before she reminded Ruth to not forget about what she promised. When Lyla went upstairs, she immediately glared at Gabriel in displeasure. “What’s with that attitude? This is the first time your daughter-in-law has decided to visit us. Not only did you not receive her warmly, you even pulled a long face at her!”Gabriel was stunned, then put on a serious expression. “Did I pull a long face?”Lyla just scoffed and said, “I’m warning you, I don’t care about your family’s stupid affairs. I’ve already accepted Ruth as my daughter-in-law. Don’t cause t

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 pondered over this for a moment before she answered honestly. “You actually never did.”When she saw Tom’s expression sour, she quickly added, “But you did now. Go on and work. I’m not hungry. I don’t mind waiting!”Tom sucked in a deep breath, and his voice deepened into a growl. “This is a hospital and not your house. The resting area you don’t like is a room other patients can’t get even if they queue up for it. I know you’re rich and don’t understand the troubles other people face, but you shouldn’t joke around when it comes to something as serious as this. Occupying other patients’ resources is the same as killing them.”Pearl’s confused face started to go pale. “No, th-that wasn’t what I was…”“You stayed in the hospital for a week just because of a minor burn. Now, once Ruth got discharged, you took over her room. Aren’t you just occupying other patients’ resources?”Pearl fell silent.Tom’s voice was cold, and it was lacking his usual casualness. His attitude terr

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

Ruth raised an eyebrow and motioned for him to go. Tom left the room in a hurry, but he did not go to apologize to Pearl as they thought he would. After all, he had already said what he said, and Pearl was still angry. All his explanations would be futile at this point. However, if he stood there under their sharp gazes, he felt like they could see through his thoughts, and it was really awkward. Once Tom left the room, Ruth could not help but snicker. She turned to Abel and said, “I’ve never realized you’re that good at taunting people. Wait, no. I mean, I’ve never realized you’re also this good at taunting your friends.”“And I’ve never realized you’re this good at comforting women.”Ruth fell silent. That… did not sound like a compliment. When they went to Tom’s office, he was already waiting for them.Once Tom cast aside the complicated emotions, he returned to being serious and strict. “Based on the medical records the other hospital provided, it seems that they dia

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

Chapter 290

“The West City project is about to start. I need to go over there to oversee it.” Abel’s clear voice yanked Ruth harshly back to reality. “Oh…” she mumbled. She had thought that he was going to lovingly say that even if he was the richest man in Sommerset, he was still her husband, and it was his honor to accompany her. Wasn’t he really good at spewing cheesy romantic lines before?He even said things like it’s only right to earn money for his wife and he did not need a reason to pick his wife up from work. Seriously, she must have watched too many shows and started to suffer from terminal drama cliche illness. That was why she was imagining how a loving but domineering CEO would one day fall in love with her. No can do. She herself had to become the loving but domineering CEO. “Sure. I need to make some work arrangements, though, and will only be able to leave in two days. Does that work for you?”“I’m fine with whenever. I’ll wait for you.”Ruth found herself speec
