Semua Bab Yes, I'm the Richest Man's Wife: Bab 651 - Bab 660

Bella, when she saw that the main host had arrived, immediately intensified her accusations. “Mr. Notus, when you sought Luna back then, we didn’t stop you from acknowledging her, right? Although you’re her biological father, we’ve raised her for more than twenty years! For such an important matter like her marriage, how could you heartlessly keep it from us?”“Yeah! Luna doted on me the most! The person she marries should seek my approval to marry her! But you had it all arranged behind our backs!”“Jasper, don’t be rude to older people.” Callum pretended to reprimand his son and acted as though he was a kind father. “Mr. Notus, we’ve caused you trouble today. But we were worried sick about our daughter, so we took the liberty to come here.”Notus pursed his lips. He was displeased, but his expression was composed. “It’s only right for you to come. This was an oversight on my part.”“Is that so? That’s what you’re saying in front of everyone, but we were told differently just now!

Ruth also nodded slightly in greeting.Notus had completely forgotten about the commotion at the door and was now warmly concerned about the two of them. He even invited them to his house for a small gathering after the banquet ended, saying that he had not seen them for a long time.Ruth did not show it on her face, but she could not help but mentally roll her eyes. This old goat had some nerve!Just as she was waiting to see how Abel would reject him, Abel patted her shoulder and said gently, “Your friend is over there. Why don’t you go have a chat with her?”Ruth looked in the direction he was pointing. “Pearl Harlem?”“Yes, she doesn’t seem familiar with those people.”Ruth turned and excused herself to Notus before she walked away.Notus’s smile disappeared, and he glowered at Abel. “What’s in it for you to let her distance herself from me?”Abel smirked. “Uncle Notus, you’ve misunderstood. It won’t do for you to let Tom’s woman get into trouble in your territory.”Notus

Ruth squatted down thoughtfully. Her gaze was oppressive. “Since you trust him so much, why go to such lengths to create this drama? You mentioned paying a price. Did you intend to use this dispute to attract everyone’s attention? To expose your relationship with Aquilo and sabotage the engagement?”Sally avoided her gaze. “I don’t know what you’re talking about!”“It’s okay if you don’t understand, but when you were timing your fall, you saw Aquilo, right? Why do you think he didn’t follow you?”Sally subconsciously looked at the passage exit.Pearl did not really understand what they were talking about.She glanced at the passage as well and politely asked, “Why? She didn’t get a clear view?”Ruth smiled. “Look carefully. Either it’s because he thought it was unnecessary, or you’re not allowed to be here.”Sally became agitated. “He must have been stopped. Otherwise, he would definitely come here!”Ruth’s smile grew wider. “Silly girl, if he really wanted to come over, even a

That explained how Pearl greeted her when she first spotted Ruth.In other words, she had not even been sure if Ruth was there. Had she just been testing the waters by using their names?“Why are you here alone?” Ruth asked curiously.Pearl stayed silent.Ruth pursed her lips. Right. She forgot that they were no longer friends. She turned around and gave Abel a look.Abel got the signal and was about to ask, but changed his mind in the end.However, when they sent her to her house, he reminded Pearl, “For two people to make it work, the most important things are trust and communication.”Pearl’s hand on the car door handle froze. She turned back around nervously. “You told Tom?”Abel said, “No, but it might not be the same next time.”Pearl lowered her head and thanked him in a murmur. Then, she pushed open the car door and ran into the house.Ruth looked at Pearl’s retreating figure, then she looked at Abel as if she just understood something.Pearl had heard about the marr

Ruth pouted. “Who would ask someone out for lunch on a weekend? It’s usually for dinner!”“Me! I like to ask people out for both lunch and dinner!”Ruth grudgingly let Pearl win the argument.When Pearl first arrived, she was terrified when she saw Abel. However, after a while, she realized that he was just quietly reading messages on his tablet, so she let herself relax.“Why do you look so listless? Didn’t you sleep last night? Or were you out having an affair?”“Pfft!” Ruth spat out the water she was sipping. She had been wary of spraying it at Abel, so she turned around and sprayed it at Pearl instead.Pearl’s face scrunched up. Her mind went blank for a few seconds before she reacted. “Ruth! Ew!”Ruth’s lips twitched awkwardly. She quickly grabbed a tissue and wiped her face. “Sorry, can you learn to talk with a filter?”Pearl’s face had turned bright red with anger for getting sprayed at. However, at Ruth’s reminder, she turned to look at Abel’s cold face and shrank back
