Ruth suddenly asked, “Does this company belong to you? You took the Lovehart family’s money and did something to the Lovehart family, but you didn’t want Lily to know?”The corners of Abel’s mouth twitched. He felt that not telling her the truth would be more troublesome than telling her.“Do you remember Hamish?” he suddenly asked.Ruth’s eyes flickered, and she quickly nodded. “I remember him, but I haven’t thought about him since the wedding.”Abel took the tablet from her hand again and placed it aside. He lifted the blanket and got into bed. “I looked into what he’s been up to.”Ruth thought for a moment and frowned. “Is this related to Denver?”“Denver has been in contact with the outside world and often sends remittances. A few of these remittances are from this company’s account. The address where Hamish sent the message to Denver corresponds with the address of this company.”“This company is their contact point, and it has something to do with the fifth head of the Riv

This was very calculated.On the surface, they would look rational and objective. However, in reality, they were ruthless and would swoop in to replace her as soon as possible. This way, they would not lose favor with the public.Notus did not look too bothered. Lily wondered if he actually believed that Sean would not do anything to her.How naive. Sean would not stop with a few words. He truly believed Lily was stealing what was his, after all.Lily smiled faintly and put on an act. “I’m still young and inexperienced. I have a lot to learn. I may make mistakes, so I still have to rely on my elders to guide me.”Sean snorted. “It’s natural for your elders to support you. Still, you have to show that you’re capable of leading the corporation as well!”Lily was silent.Sean still insisted on stirring up trouble.He was basically saying she was incapable.Since he did not want things to go smoothly, Lily might as well make things difficult for everyone!“Uncle Sean, do you thin

It was 6:30 p.m.The banquet was held on the top floor of the hotel.When Ruth arrived, Lily was trailing after Notus in boredom.Likely because of her actions at the press conference, most people’s eyes were on her. From time to time, they would come over to greet her and ask her a few questions.They were so curious! Why did she throw everything away to make a scene at the press conference?She was almost about to answer when her eyes lit up.“Ruth is here. I’ll go take a look.”Notus was chatting with the people beside him.Hearing this, he looked over. He frowned and was about to say something when Lily skipped away.At the end of the press conference, Notus had been reprimanded by the board of directors several times and had been yelled at by Zach.The situation was getting worse.Lily was also still running around.Afraid that she would cause trouble again, Notus quickly excused himself from the people around him and followed her.Only Ruth and Abel had come.Ruth g

“Do you think you can?” Galen asked lightly.Demi was speechless.She was in a similar situation to Apollo’s.Her identity was kept secret in the entertainment industry, and she had never revealed her family to anyone.There were so many reporters here today. If they revealed that she was the daughter of the Barker family, wouldn’t all her hard work be discredited? Everyone would think that she had used her family to get to where she was.“Also, I’m here today because someone asked me to attend.” When he said this, he glanced at Lily.Lily understood that Abel had probably asked him to look after her. “Thanks, bro!”Galen frowned slightly and did not speak.Demi and Apollo were confused.“When did he become your bro?”“Why are you calling him that anyway?”Lily shrugged. “Actually, I don’t want to either, but he’s too nice. I can’t be rude to him! How else can I show him respect?”Demi and Apollo looked uncomfortable.Galen’s expression also sank. He did not like this.

Apollo’s words unintentionally hit Lily’s sore spot. She turned to glare at him angrily. “What do you mean? What’s wrong with women like her? She’s boldly expressing herself. What do you have against her?”Apollo was confused.He was trying to console her.Why did it backfire?!Apollo shut up, and the air fell into a strange silence.Everyone at the table ate in silence. Even the chattiest Serenity and Dulcie did not say anything. They even glanced over from time to time.They were afraid that something would happen.Reality proved that it was indeed impossible to be on guard to fend off a sudden attack.Lily had been very vigilant at this banquet. She had been avoiding alcohol all this time.However, she was inexplicably agitated. She forgot to stay vigilant and downed two glasses of champagne in a row.BANG!The wine glass was slammed heavily on the table, and she said in confusion, “No! Is there something wrong with Galen?”Ruth, who was sitting closest to her, answe
