Ruby was not feeling well at the moment, either.

In front of her was the person that she was thinking of, day in and day out.

However, it seemed that it was not the same person as the one that she had imagined.

With a shallow smile hanging from the corner of his mouth, Franklin pulled over a simple European-

style chair and sat right in front of Ruby, "Sit." He pointed to the other side again.

Ruby didn't look good at the moment. Four minutes of drowning made her feel the call of death.

"Mr. Cordon, I ..."

"Shh…" the man on the chair suddenly raised a finger by his mouth, "Don't speak yet, let me take a

good look at you."

Franklin's voice was incomparably compelling. Even the smile at the corners of the mouth is persuasive

to Ruby. Ruby’s face turned red for a moment, her heart was palpitating faster and faster... What does

Mr. Cordon mean?

He said he was going to take a good look at her ... What does that mean?

With an answer almost flashing out of her mind, Ruby raised her head to nervously look at Franklin in

front of her.

As soon as she raised her eyes, she stared right into a pair of focused eyes… Mr. Cordon was staring

at her!

Almost at the same time, Ruby's words emerged in her mind.

The girl's long hair was dripping wet. It fell gently on the shining black crystal stone floor. Her hair was

damp and slippery with water dripping down the tips of her hair, soaking the clothes on her body.

Under the wet clothes, it made her look so lovingly innocent and sweet.

Franklin suddenly moved!

Putting his face close to Ruby's eyes all of a sudden, Ruby was shocked. When she raised her eyes

under Franklin's focused and deep eyes, she felt as if her heart was flying out.

"Mr. Cordon ..."

Blushing just a little, she sheepishly opened her mouth to call out.

"Heh… I really can't tell that underneath this clear skin, there's a black heart that's fermenting in the

gutter."

Ruby's face abruptly stiffened. The flush on her cheeks hadn't receded yet.

Trembling her lips, she shivered with anger, "That’s too much, Mr. Cordon. You're too much."

"Don't you cry, I'm sick of women crying."

Ruby moaned and bit her lip while glaring at him with resentful eyes.

Franklin stood up: "You tell me, should I punish you or not?"

Punish again!

"Why? It's not like I've offended Mr. Cordon!" Ruby was annoyed.

Franklin sighed and looked at Ruby with a look that said, "Why are you so silly? There's no need to

ask?". He glared at Ruby, "You've offended me by setting up Grace."

How come it's Grace again!

Why was everyone calling for Grace? It's never-ending!

What's so great about her? Whether it's Mr. Cordon or President Shaw, they all backed her up!

Ruby looked up abruptly with jealousy flashing in her eyes, "Grace is not a good woman at all! Mr.

Cordon, you've been deceived by her!

Mr. Cordon, don't look at her honest appearance, but she's simply wicked in the inside. She's just

pretending to be pitiful!"

Franklin abruptly stood up without a word. With his palms in his pockets, he swept a glance at Ruby

and spoke faintly.

"I know how I'm going to punish you."

If being pity could be faked, the woman wouldn't be all tense in front of him. She wouldn’t even panic

when he found out her secret.

She should have lifted her hind garment and announce to the world: come and see, I'm missing a

kidney. I'm pitiful, you must all pity me.

However, Grace was not. That woman hid her secret so deep that no one could know it easily.

Franklin felt that she could hide this secret for the rest of her life.

Raising his hand, he made a series of phone calls. Not long after, two strong, expressionless men

came in.

Franklin pointed to a lump on the ground, "Miss Carter said she wants to learn diving, you two help to

take her to the swimming pool in the back garden."

Diving, as in diving into the water.

These two strong men understood, how can you dive in a swimming pool?

Immediately, ignoring Ruby's struggle, they grabbed her on both sides like two robots and dragged her

to the swimming pool in the back garden.

"Mr. Cordon! Mr. Cordon! You can't do this to me! You can't! I'll sue you, I'll sue you, I'll definitely sue

you!"

However, all she could see was that Mr. Cordon, whom she had been thinking of, simply put his hands

in his pockets, looked up, and said to the two strong men, "Don't get anyone killed or else I will have to

take care of unnecessary trouble."

"Yes, Young Master Cordon."

"Miss Carter, did I tell you that you are really ... " Franklin yawned: " really disgusting. "

Franklin knew Caden well. After Caden simply punished Ruby, he left with his people. Franklin thought

at that time: Caden had changed his profession to become a "one-day-Samaritan," but he just threw

her to him and left.

Franklin and Caden had been enemies as well as friends since they were young. There was a saying

that the person who knew you best was either your relative or your enemy.

Caden's approach this time was too abnormal. Franklin did not know the reason, but ...if the enemy did

not do, he would not do either.

Caden just punished and then left. Franklin had no reason to get someone killed.

It must be said that Franklin understood Caden better than most people in this world.

Grace didn't allow Caden to kill Ruby. Caden led Ruby directly in front of Franklin: Here, you did

something that went wrong halfway through. I brought her here, Franklin, you’ll see what to do.

Since he couldn’t kill Ruby with his own hands, he let Franklin kill Ruby.

What about Franklin, although it was unknown why Caden's approach this time is abnormal, in keeping

with the principle of not making a move when the enemy did not... what Caden could do but did not do,

Franklin wouldn’t do either.

These two people are not easy to deal with.

Franklin sat in the living room. He did not go to the backyard swimming pool. With a cigar in his hand,

he watched the television quietly in the living room.

More than half an hour later.

The two strong men came back, "Young Master Cordon, as you have instructed, we helped that lady

learn to dive, but that lady is too stupid and choked on too much water. So her health condition couldn’t

allow her to continue learning diving."

"Where is she?" Franklin asked faintly, his eyes not even leaving the television.

"In the back garden."

Franklin nodded and lifted his wrist to look at the time, "It's getting late, ask Miss Carter to go back."

"Yes, Young Master Cordon."

...

The night was dark, the woman was thrown out of the villa's large iron gate.

Ruby's body was aching all over, especially her throat. She was choking and coughing violently.

Dripping wet as the night breeze was blowing, Ruby walked along the side of the road, shivering in the

cold.

Underneath her eyes was hatred that was hideous and terrifying, like a monster capable of devouring

everything: Grace! It's all because of Grace!

It's all because of her! Without her, she wouldn't have suffered so much hardship!

Saying that she'll plead for herself is a total lie! Hypocrisy!

That woman didn't even plead for her!
