As soon as Ruth finished speaking, she walked past Katie and walked toward the elevator.In less than ten minutes, their roles were reversed. Neither of them had been prepared for it.Ruth had taken two steps forward when she suddenly thought of something. She turned to look at the front desk receptionist and pointed at Kallan. “He’s here to pick me up. Can I go up now?”The receptionist looked confused and flustered. When she was asked this, she quickly nodded. “O-Of course. I’m sorry, I just...”“It’s alright. You’re doing great.” Ruth assured her and walked on toward the elevator with Kallan and Eilam in tow.The receptionist and Katie were left behind in the lobby. One looked solemn, while the other looked nervous.......In the elevator, Ruth gave Eilam a scrutinizing gaze. “You’ve been busy with something.”Eilam’s heartbeat sped up involuntarily, but his voice was calm. “As you have requested, I followed a distance away from you, so I came in a little slower.”“No.” Rut

When Katie heard this, she stared at Notus in surprise. Then, she turned away and closed her eyes dejectedly.That earlier thought must have been her imagination. It seemed that Notus still cared about Luna.For such a lousy matter, he actually notified the social media platforms and put in so much effort just to keep a few photos from leaking out. Back when Katie had her debut in the entertainment industry, she never received such care from him, even when she was criticized by netizens.The abrupt ringtone of a call broke the inexplicable tension in the car.Notus took out his phone and answered the call. “Hello?”“Mr. Notus, did your daughter offend someone? That video was uploaded again, and there’s some new coding around it, so it can’t be removed! Someone must be behind this!”The car was so quiet that Katie heard everything clearly. She whipped out her phone and accessed a social media platform to take a look. There, she saw that a new hot topic had indeed been posted. She

Abel’s familiar breath fell warmly against the side of Ruth’s face. Her eyelids trembled and her cheeks reddened.She moved carefully to find a more comfortable position. During the process, she even secretly lowered her eyes and glanced at Abel’s crotch.Then, she looked at the computer screen, and only then did she realize that he was really working. It seemed that there was a problem with Blakewell Corporation’s overseas company and Abel was working overtime to deal with it.Ruth thought about saying that Abel should not be so petty nor stay away from home because of a small matter. But if he was not mad about the photo, then why was he being so distant? He did not even reply to her messages after their phone call this afternoon.Ruth had been busy all day. Even though it was not a major issue, her nerves were still on edge. At this moment, she leaned into Abel’s familiar embrace and listened to his steady heartbeat and the clicking of the mouse. Soon, she started to feel a litt

Ruth’s face was as red as a tomato, and her eyes darted about.She thought. “Why would someone do such a thing and still have the nerve to ask?”Abel had never been such a gentleman before!Seeing the rare shyness in her eyes, Abel’s smile deepened. He leaned closer and said in a bewitching voice, “If you don’t say anything, I’ll take it as an agreement.”Just as Ruth was about to speak, he dipped down and kissed her.The kiss was light and gentle, but it gradually tempted her into losing her self-control bit by bit.Ruth slowly closed her eyes and wrapped her arms around his neck.......At dawn the next day, the lights in Blakewell Corporation’s building finally went out as sunlight spilled through the windows. Only the president’s office remained brightly lit.......At noon, Ruth finally woke up in the master bedroom of Kingsland Manor residential area.She did not remember how she came home last night. She only remembered that Abel, that ROGUE, had whispered in her ear

Ruth turned off her phone and glared at him. “No, and how can you sneak a peek at someone else’s messages? When did you get this bad habit?”Abel’s lazy posture on the sofa had not changed, even his voice showed his indifference.“I didn’t. You’re the one who brought it to me.”Ruth was speechless, and only one thought crossed her mind at Abel’s response.“Shameless!” Ruth grumbled silently to herself and took her phone to the dining table.Abel smirked as he watched her go. Suddenly, he felt his phone vibrate. He checked the screen. It was a message from Joseph.[Understood.]This was in reply to a message he had just sent Joseph, which read. [Wait for the heat around Seema’s plagiarism to die down, then use the official account to expose the marketing accounts associated with Luna. The official announcement should read: Never collaborate with morally compromised artists.]He thought for a moment and added, [Pay attention to Lockton Entertainment’s movements and offer suppor
