“Stop clinging to me. It looks rude!”
Ryder entered the room and pushed Ruby away again.
This woman was as sticky as sugar!
She might have no shame, but he still wanted to maintain his dignity!
“Ryder, you finally came!”
Just as he managed to push Ruby away, Belinda approached.
Alessandra, being the kind-hearted person she was, had already forgiven the
other party after they apologized. Hence, she was walking next to Belinda as
well.
“Well…”
Ryder was not used to this. Last time, both Belinda and Ruby teamed up to
scold him like he was something found at the bottom of their shoes. Why were they suddenly so nice to him?
He just did not understand it!
He did not get it one bit.
“Ryder, what happened last time was our family’s fault. When your mother
asked the matchmaker to approach us, we shouldn’t have been so
judgmental!”
Belinda played along with her daughter’s act as she insincerely apologized to
Ryder.

As for Roderick, he smiled and went along with it. He did not care who Ruby
married as long as the man could afford the bridal price.
After all, their goal was to sell their daughter for a high price. It was fine as
long as they would not be suffering a loss.
“You were not wrong, though!”
Ryder straightened his back and said, “I am indeed ugly and not worthy of NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.
your daughter, so…
“I don’t mind!”
Ruby did not give him a chance to refuse the offer. She walked over and
hugged his arm.
Based on her experience dating middle-aged men, she had already figured
out that although Ryder was a typical doormat, his self-control was far
inferior to Emmanuel’s!
She knew full well that Milani Zimmerman could not make Emmanuel fall
head over heels for her because she did not use her body effectively.
After all, a woman’s greatest weapon was her body, right?
She firmly believed that as long as she slept with Ryder, the older man would
definitely be infatuated with her.
Then, as long as she made good use of his relationship with Emmanuel and his mother, she could easily get a bride price of 50 thousand, maybe even
500 thousand!
“Ah, I really don’t deserve you, Miss Zimmerman!”
“You should work harder then. I believe you will be worthy of me in the future!”
“I just can’t do it. No matter how hard I work, it’s useless!”
“In that case, I’ll accompany you and be your catalyst for change, okay?”
“Well… what exactly about me caught your attention?”
“See? You have self-awareness. You are down-to-earth and honest. Isn’t that
your greatest advantage?”
Listening to the conversation between Ryder and Ruby, Roselynn felt like she
was going to vomit again.
She also saw that her cousin was no match for Ruby’s wily ways. If he did not
have the help of an expert, he would be devoured in no time!
On the other hand, Alessandra was happy to see this. She had always known
that Ryder was a good man and that a woman would eventually be
attracted to him!
Although she knew that Ryder liked Tia, it would not hurt to have another
option.
“Oh, I… Ugh.”
Ryder was still at a loss for words as he pushed Ruby away, not knowing what
to say.
“Ryder, are you rejecting me because you think I’m not worthy of you?”
Ruby decided to take a step back to further her cause.
“No, no!”
Ryder immediately shook his head.
“What is it then? Are you trying to tell me that you’re already dating
someone?”
Ruby looked at Ryder with a deadpan expression.
Her parents also subconsciously sneered.
They were depressed.
They agreed to cooperate with their daughter’s act because of Emmanuel.
They knew he had married into the Quillen family.
Why would they even consider Ryder, this old and ugly man, if not for that
relationship?
Only if they were that blind!
