Two minutes later, the “guilty” Ruth finally posted a tweet after being silent the whole day in the face of condemning words. Ruth: Keeping your sugar mommy’s photos is something worthy of praise, but uploading them while twisting the truth is wrong @Caelus]She also uploaded four photos that showed a transfer of money. The transfer dates were different, but all of the money went to Caelus, and he always sent a heart emoji back. If heart emojis could symbolize love, then he sent some every month. After the first transfer of money, he even wished her happy birthday in advance. The netizens who had been denouncing Ruth and condemning her were really stirred up. When Ruth posted the tweet, it immediately became the most retweeted post. [What’s this?][Sugar mommy? Am I reading this right? Ruth is Caelus’s sugar mommy?][What the hell? I’m too shocked. My brain can’t think.][Hahahahaha! She’s saying that she’s Rising Star’s president’s sugar mommy! I’m going to die!][How
Mr. Herbert understood just how biased Calum was, but he was a wily old fox who looked down on Calum and did not trust Ruth, so he decided to protect his own interests by staying out of their family’s affairs and refusing to say anything about it. Nathan diverted the subject by saying regretfully, “But it’s still sad that we lost the copyright for Silent Love. We assessed it so thoroughly and planned for it, but it ended up benefiting someone else instead.”“Don’t be sad about it. I never wanted the copyright for that book.”What?Both of them stared at her. Ruth gave them a mysterious smile. “Just wait. You’ll understand what I mean later.”Nathan was patient and phlegmatic, so, when he saw how confident she was, he felt at ease and did not ask any further questions, while Mr. Herbert did not care about it. His sole goal was to deal with Ruth’s current scandal. He happily went out with his phone in hand and waited for a crucial moment to add fuel to the flames and stir the p
Luna had changed her schedule last minute to discreetly increase her own value by telling DH that she wanted to sign the contract the next day instead of what was originally planned. But they could not wait and came to her. Their enthusiasm pleased Luna, and there was no problem with the contract’s clauses, so she was ready to sign. But what were they doing now?She exchanged a look with her manager, Cyrus, and could only watch as DH’s group left in a hurry. Then, her manager received a call. After he hung up, he turned around stiffly to stare at her. “I think I know why they left, Luna.”What?Luna picked up her phone and saw the series of money transfer screenshots. Then, she saw that Ruth had tagged her, and her expression turned dark. When she saw the netizens who were just in for the entertainment asking Ruth to give them more details, Luna’s heart nearly stopped. How could she forget?! Ruth still had those indecent photos of her and Caelus!In a panic, she got out
Just how busy was he that he could not check his phone even after a few hours had passed?They both worked in the entertainment industry. There was no way he would not pay attention to what was going on in his field, right?If he saw it but did not ask anything about it and ignored Ruth, it was clear that he was not busy but angry!Night fell. Kingsland Manor residential area was bright due to the streetlights. When Ruth got home, she found Apollo sitting in the living room and playing games. He was the only one there. The special effects on the screen were really flashy and loud, so he did not even notice her when she opened the door. Mrs. Greenwell came up to her respectfully to take her handbag and handed her a pair of slippers. “You’re home early today, Madam.”Ruth grunted in acknowledgement and looked upstairs. “Where’s Abel?”“He’s not back yet. He said that he won’t be coming back for dinner.”Ruth froze while changing out of her shoes. She looked at Mrs. Greenwell
“I’m not that blind as to flirt with that woman!” Apollo shouted and ran after Ruth. “Are you going to shower my brother with love and dote on him or not?”Ruth did not even turn to look at him as she said languidly, “Nope.”She should not spoil him too much. It had already inflated his ego, and he forgot his place in the family. As long as she did not do something that betrayed him, why should she shower him with love and dote on him?Half an hour later, Ruth came downstairs. She had changed into a pomegranate red one-piece dress that made her look petite and beautiful. She had light makeup on her delicate face, and her long hair fell across her back, which made her look stunning. Apollo stared at her in a daze from where he was sitting on the carpet. He was bedazzled. Ruth did not even look at him. She just said in the direction of the kitchen, “I won’t be eating at home, Mrs. Greenwell. You don’t have to wait for me.”Apollo quickly got to his feet and asked, “Where are yo
Abel was surprised. “She’s coming over?”“Not to where you are right now. I was worried that it wouldn’t be convenient for you, so I asked her to go pick you up at Grand Empire. I said you’re going back to work overtime at the company.” Apollo continued, as if he was asking for praise for his deeds. “Aren’t I smart? Ruth is really smart. If she saw your friends, she might suspect who you really are. She’s feeling guilty over what she did, but, if she finds out that you’ve been hiding your true identity, you’re going to be the one in the wrong.”Abel sneered. “Then, should I thank you for being such a smart boy?”He was currently at a club near Kingsland Manor residential area, which was far away from Grand Empire. What Apollo did was make both him and Ruth take a huge detour to meet over there. Besides, he did not show up at Grand Empire often. Aside from the top brass, only a handful of people knew him. It was not appropriate for Ruth to go to Grand Empire.“It’s nothing. This
A long-haired person whose gender could not be deciphered in just one look sat by a window. When they caught sight of a familiar figure at the entrance, they stood up and went over with their arms spread wide. “It’s been a long while, Ruth!”Ruth bypassed the person and sat down across from him. “I’m married. Keep your distance.”The man’s lips twitched, and he stared at her as if he was wondering whether she had a few screws loose in her head. When he saw Ruth remaining steadfast in keeping her distance, he felt resigned and took out a black velvet bag from his pocket. “My wife told me to hand it to you personally.” He was also married! Why was she being so prideful?!Ruth took the velvet bag and took a look inside. It had a small box with two rings lying quietly inside it. The workmanship suited her expectations. “Not bad. How’s work at your workshop? I’ve been busy with the company lately and didn’t have time to check it out.”“Everything’s going fine. We can come back to
He then changed the focus. “He might be thinking about commissioning a piece of jewelry. Last week, Mr. Kallan was contacting all sorts of major jewelry brands, but he wasn’t satisfied with what they offered.”Ruth cocked an eyebrow. “He has pretty good taste.”Her gaze instinctively moved to the bag beside her while saying that. He should like her gift, then. After Joseph left, the office fell silent. Ruth waited for a little over ten minutes. During that time, she flipped through the magazine in boredom, went to the french window, and looked at the cars underneath. When Abel came in, he saw a woman in a red one-piece dress. Her legs were straight and long, and her feet were wrapped in a pair of slingback heels. The straps encircled her fair ankles, which made her look delicate and aloof, but beautiful. Ruth added a splash of bright colors to the originally monochrome-colored office. When she heard the sound of the door opening, she turned around and saw Abel standing at
