Semua Bab Yes, I'm the Richest Man's Wife: Bab 31 - Bab 40

Ruth did not know what to say. This family could be a whole theater group by itself. But, at the end of the day, they were insisting that she had to pay. Ruth stared at their disgusting faces, but did not expose the truth that they wanted to be unreasonable because the internet was down. She just went straight to the point. “I did come here for money today.”The moment she said those words, Callum and his family looked at her. “Lockton Entertainment is in debt, and the money it earns isn’t enough to cover its expenditure. Lockton Corporation has been covering its expenses, hasn’t it? Mr. Goldwell, you’ve been balancing the accounts for years, so you should provide an explanation to the public, don’t you think?” Ruth said casually. Callum’s expression changed. “What are you saying?”“I’m giving you a chance to cover the debt. Deal with it within three months, and I’ll let this slide. Otherwise, I’ll announce it to the public.” After saying that, she turned around gracefully to

Kallan bowed down respectfully. “Amazing, Mr. Blakewell.”The people in the study were intimidated by the man’s imposing demeanor. Callum walked forward with trembling legs and asked anxiously, “Who are you?”Kallan turned around and cleared his throat before making introductions. “This is Mr. Blakewell.”Callum nearly tripped. He had never seen Abel before, but Kallan had mentioned who he worked for. The only person Kallan would treat so respectfully was the leader of Grand Empire and the man who stood at the top of the Blakewell family. He had never dreamt that he would one day be able to see the richest man in Sommerset and get to know him. Once Ruth calmed down, she jogged over. “Didn’t I ask you not to come?”Abel looked her up and down before his eyes landed on the red mark on her face. He scowled, and his voice filled with displeasure. “You’re hurt?” He stroked the mark. His warm breath landed on her face, and Ruth’s eyelashes fluttered. When his rough finger touch

Honestly, it would have been worth it. Everything was within her control. That’s why when she heard him lecturing her, she felt offended. He was overstepping. She squared her shoulders and was about to stubbornly refute him when he sighed and said softly, “I’m worried about you.”She was unable to say anything back. The angry words at the tip of her tongue did a u-turn and died in her stomach. Ruth was like a noble Persian cat whose fur had been smoothed out. When she spoke, her voice was much gentler. “I’m fine. Look! They just hit me here. Blow on it, and I’ll be fine.”As she spoke, she pulled closer to him. The streetlights shone through the scattered leaves and landed on her pretty face. They cast her in a striking and dazzling light. Abel frowned as he stared at the face now close to his own. When he saw how dejected and pitiful she looked, he thought that he had been too harsh on her, which was why he explained why he did what he did in a gentle tone. But it was

Caelus smiled at him gently. “Thanks, Dad, on both me and Luna’s behalf.”......Once Ruth finally got her husband to feel better, she started busying herself at home. The moment she finished her bath, she made a call. It was quite noisy on the other end of the phone, but, after a series of clacking sounds from heels, the other’s surroundings became slightly quieter. “If I recall correctly, it’s still night time in Sommerset, isn’t it? Isn’t your husband working hard in bed? Why do you still have energy left to talk to me?”Ruth’s eyelids twitched, and she really wanted to grab Serenity’s brain to fish it out of the gutter. “I have a favor to ask.”“Go on. As long as you’re not asking for a gigolo. I’ll help you with anything else.”“Callum asked me for sixty million dollars—”“Are you mad?! Wasn’t it enough to have provided for that sc*mbag of an ex? Why do you want to give money to your b*stard of a father as well? Your savings are constantly being emptied by men! Think abo

Abel was usually really busy, so Ruth often saw him in his suit, which made him look aloof and like someone who did not indulge in carnal pleasures. It was either that or him not wearing anything when he had just finished bathing, which always made her face red as a tomato. She had never seen him dressed in casual clothes before. It gave him a different kind of allure. But while he might appear alluring, Ruth was not someone whose judgment was easily clouded by a handsome man. “You bought something? What did you buy? What made you spend five hundred million dollars?”“Five hundred and twenty million dollars,” Abel coolly corrected her. Ruth resisted the urge to wrangle his neck and tried her best to make sure that her face did not appear scary. “Come,” she said gently. “Let me see what you got for five hundred and twenty million dollars.”Abel stared at her twisted smile in disdain, but handed over the bag he was carrying.Ruth dumped the contents of the bag on the tea table.
