Wyatt Hale finished taking photos and, from the
corner of his eye, glanced at his sister–in–law, Zoe Bell. She seemed to be in a good mood, so he didn’t mention seeing Ruben Fletcher to avoid affecting her
emotions.
But very soon,
he was force–fed a mouthful of dog food.
Zoe ordered a steak, and William Hale considerately cut it for her before passing it over.
William, on the other hand, ordered black truffle pasta with white sauce. Zoe merely gave it a few extra glances, and he specifically scooped some onto a plate and handed it to her, “Want to try?”
Wyatt, who was sitting diagonally opposite her, listened as Zoe didn’t refuse, “Thank you.”
“Brother, I also want…”
Wyatt didn’t get to finish his sentence when his

brother suddenly stared at him with an intense gaze, startling him to the core.
His words took a detour, “I also feel like having some
lemon water.”
The lemon water was by William’s side.
Zoe normally had to control her diet, but she indulged
and ate a lot that time.
“Does it taste good?” William asked casually.
“Hmm.”
“Then we should go out more often.”
Zoe was taken aback for a moment, now feeling a bit
confused. Was it her illusion? Sometimes she felt that William took their marriage seriously, or was his acting just too good, especially at putting on a show in front. of his brother? Was he pretending too perfectly?
“Brother, do you have any other plans after dinner with my sister–in–law?” Wyatt was sensible.
He would call her sister–in–law at home, and sister
outside.
To tell the truth, he had complained about it privately

in group chats before.
Having married, why did the whole family have to be
so seetive?
“The plans after this?” Zoe glanced at William, hoping he would shut his little brother up.
“What do you guys normally do when you go out on dates?” Wyatt was genuinely curious, after all, his big brother had always pretended to be an adult since they were little.
“What do normal couples do on dates?” William looked
at his brother.
Wyatt was dumbfounded.
You two are already married? And you’re asking me, a single dog!
As the meal was coming to an end, William stepped away to make a phone call. Wyatt was busy looking at his phone and didn’t think much of it when he heard Zoe say she was going to the restroom.
In reality, Zoe was going to pay the bill.
During this time, William had helped her a lot. She couldn’t dare to truly treat it as a date. She had savings

before marriage, although she was reluctant to spend them. However, she could certainly afford to treat a
meal
As she was getting ready to leave after settling the bill, she unexpectedly encountered a familiar face.
Ruben Fletcher was holding his car keys in one hand and wrapping his arm around a young, pretty girl with the other. But as soon as he bumped into Zoe, he couldn’t take his eyes off her.
“Young Master Fletcher?” The girl noticed that his attention was diverted and started to act coquettishly while leaning into his embrace.
“Ah, you go ahead.”
“Brother-” The girl sounded reluctant to leave.
Ruben Fletcher whispered a few words into her ear and then gave her behind a pat, which made the girl leave with a blushing face, suggesting that he probably said something indecent.
Zoe remembered Wyatt once mentioning Ruben Fletcher splurging at Nightless.
When she was still with the Bell Family, she had heard

Kevin Bell and his wife say that to show their gratitude for the Fletcher Family’s care and nurturing of their daug r, they would give them financial
compensation.
It seemed that the Fletcher Family had indeed received
the money.
But she hadn’t expected that Ruben Fletcher would start squandering it as soon as he turned around, showing no sense of appreciation.
Zoe had no intention of dealing with him and chose to ignore him, but Ruben Fletcher unexpectedly came over to strike up a conversation, “Miss Bell, do you remember me? I’m Mina’s brother, Ruben Fletcher.”
“We met in the mall, and also at the welcome dinner
last night.”
Zoe frowned.
She didn’t want to engage with him, fearing that after the commotion last night, Ruben Fletcher, having been Mina Bell’s brother for over twenty years, would take
her side and cause her trouble. But she hadn’t
expected that…
He was actually hitting on her! Is there something

wrong with his brain?
“I don’t remember, I’m sorry, please excuse me,” Zoe tried to bypass him and leave.
However, Ruben Fletcher stretched out his long arm, blocking Zoe’s path. This was a high–end restaurant, sparsely populated, and at that moment, no one else was passing by.
He wore an ill–fitting shirt, expensive yet unsuitable for him, his hair greasy.

“Miss Bell, don’t go, it’s rare to meet you, can I buy you a drink?”
“Just get in my car.”
As he spoke, he deliberately flaunted his BMW car keys, seemingly intent on showing off in front of her.
Zoe Bell felt nothing but disgust.
If he wanted to stick up for Mina Bell and make trouble for her, she’d at least acknowledge that he had some sense of family. But, what was this? Still in the mood to go out and even thinking about his lower–half desires?
Absolute trash.

Zoe Bell didn’t want to bother with him and turned to leave from the other side when she heard from behind:
“How much do you charge per session?”
She froze.
Ruben Fletcher was overjoyed inside!
From his experience of playing around recently, even the most beautiful women all have a price.
As long as the money is right, no matter how much they play the part of the chaste and fierce woman at the start, they all turn into something soft and
twistable around his finger.
“Miss Bell, you’ve been with Brandon Stone, now with that Hale guy, whatever they can give you, I can too, I have money.”
In his shallow understanding, the relationship between a man and a woman was nothing more than what happens in bed.
“Furthermore, I’ve heard that Mr. Hale has a powerful background; he would never possibly marry you.”
“Did Mina Bell tell you that?” Zoe Bell sneered.

“He might not be able to, but I can!”
“C what?”
“I can marry you!”
Ruben Fletcher moved in front of Zoe Bell, his tone so
earnest that she found it laughable, even unbelievable.
He had never seen such a celestial beauty in his life.
There was an indescribable quality about her, yet her eyes were lively and naïve.
The blend of innocence and allure was intensely
captivating.
“Our Fletcher Family might not be as wealthy as the Stone Family, but everything I have I can give to you, and I have a car and a house right now. As long as you agree, we can get the certificate tomorrow. Being a mistress won’t last forever.”
“Mistress?” Zoe Bell knew right away who those words
came from.
“And if you marry me, we will be closer than ever, I can go and persuade Mina as well as Uncle and Aunt Bell from the Bell family; they won’t pursue last night’s
matter”

Zoe Bell suddenly realized, this scumbag in front of
her…
Seemed to be serious!
Ridiculous.
Who gave him such confidence?
Zoe Bell felt that talking to him was a waste of time, glanced at him, and planned to leave. Ruben Fletcher stiffened, because he clearly saw scorn and mockery in
her eyes.
He was truly sincere, what was she laughing at?
Is it that laughable?
He clenched his teeth and cursed in his mind:
Damn it! I don’t disdain her being someone’s mistress,
how dare she look down on me?
“Zoe Bell, who do you think you are? Just a mistress supported by someone, what makes you so noble! Do you think a normal man would marry you? Stop right
there!”
Zoe Bell heard urgent footsteps behind her, turned around, and saw Ruben Fletcher bearing down on her

with fury.
She frowned, about to take action, but then she felt
some approach from behind, and when she turned around again…
A long arm reached out and wrapped her in an
embrace.
Instinctively wanting to struggle, she smelled a familiar scent; the woody fragrance that no longer felt invading, instead offering her an exceptional sense of
security.
He said:
“Don’t move!”
At that moment, she felt extremely safe.
And Wyatt Hale, who had pulled Zoe Bell into his arms, side–stepped and kicked, sending the approaching Ruben Fletcher flying.
