Ruth could not understand it. “Why didn’t she turn up when your grandfather arranged for them to go on a date? She even asked someone to take her place.”Apollo got worked up. “She betrayed Abel! How could she still meet him after that?!”“How did she betray Abel?”Apollo quickly zipped his mouth shut when he saw Ruth’s puzzled gaze. He knew it. His brother really did not tell Ruth about it. He let his tongue slip again. Ruth started deducing the situation in a cool voice. “Someone can only betray another person if they have some kind of relationship with each other. If Abel didn’t have any relationship with her, how could she have betrayed him? If they did have some sort of relationship with each other, what kind of relationship was it? I highly doubt they treated each other like siblings.”“No... Wait! It’s not what you think it is. Strictly speaking, she’s also a victim…” Apollo wanted to explain what had happened but seemed to have a hard time saying certain things. He kept

She withdrew her hands in embarrassment and returned to her seat. Just moments ago, she had been like a hissing and spitting cat, but at this point, she had withdrawn her claws and returned to her seat with her ears drooping low. She even put her hands on her knees like an obedient child. A flash of amusement appeared briefly in Abel’s eyes, but it soon faded away. He knew Ruth was just pretending to be submissive. After all this time together, he had already figured out this awkward aspect of her behavior.If she ran into relationship problems, she never spoke to him about it. She would use her own imagination to “figure out” the reasons behind an event, and, in the end, without even verifying the truth, slap a humiliating label on him. “Did you hear some rumors about my family? Are you worried that they’re going to treat you unkindly?” he asked tentatively and sounded puzzled. Ruth shook her head. “No.”Abel then thought about it some more. “Did you hear some rumors about m

Someone knocked on their car window. Ruth immediately became aware of her surroundings and moved quickly to the door.Abel froze. Then, he wound down the car window and glared at the perpetrator. Kallan still had his phone in hand. When he saw how displeased his boss was because he had obviously been c*ckblocked, his heart skipped a beat, but he pretended to be calm and pointed at his phone. “Mr. Blakewell, they’re already asking where you are.”Ruth quickly answered for Abel, “Got it. Let’s go.” ……As usual, the family gathering was held at the Sky Hotel. When Ruth and Abel arrived at the venue where the family gathering was held, it was already past 8 p.m.. They were, without a doubt, the last to arrive.“You sure kept a mysterious front, Ruth. Many of our elders have been looking forward to meeting you, and you’ve only just arrived. I suppose even if you’re an hour late, it’s nothing.” A clear voice brought the underlying tension within them to light. It was Coral. Due

“You bought those sports cars in the company’s name, so it’s reasonable for the company to take them back.”“No! You can’t—”“I’m the head of the Blakewell family, so I have the power to make decisions. Since you dare to be rude to my wife, you should be prepared to face the consequences.” Abel’s voice was calm and emotionless.When Coral met Abel’s gaze, her heart skipped a beat. She wanted to refute but did not dare to. She knew very well that if Abel got angry, he had the power to take back everything she had.Even if Nicholas tried to stop him, nothing would change.Coral glared at Ruth fiercely and turned to her parents for help.George and Medina were also shocked when they heard Abel’s words. They secretly glanced at Frank, who sat at the main table.Frank’s expression had also darkened. He glared at Abel and Ruth fiercely and wished to cut them to pieces.Seeing Frank’s reaction, Medina wanted to add fuel to the fire, but Nicholas stopped her and said, “We’re a family.

In comparison to Lyla and Gabriel, George and his family looked happy. Medina almost got carried away, and she gazed at Frank expectantly.Frank did not let her down. He talked about Nicholas’ achievements in detail and praised him. Finally, he made the announcement. “I’ve decided to let Nicholas inherit Delilah’s shares!”Medina instantly smiled. “Nicholas is diligent and not as high-profile as the others. I thought he would get the short end of the stick since he never asked for help, but it seems like I was narrow-minded. Dad, thank you for giving him this chance. I’m sure he will do better!”“It’s Nicholas’s honor to have Dad’s trust. Nicholas, hurry up and thank your grandfather for letting you inherit the shares,” George hurriedly said.“Everyone knows how hard Nicholas has worked for the company. Grandpa knows, too.” Dillon sounded triumphant.“Yeah. Nicholas deserves it!” Coral also spoke excitedly.Nicholas’s family were all happy for him. However, Nicholas was calm. He
