Chapter 232 Tell Him to Give Up
Hearing his words, Ruby smiled, not taking it to heart at all.
"Many thanks, but I have no intention of going to the capital, nor do I intend to let anyone protect me, I
can protect myself, you don't need to worry about me."
She refused, and Benjamin immediately tightened his brows.
"But, it's dangerous for you to stay in Sea City now, I know several groups of people have already been
after you, you ......"
"But aren't I still safe?" Not waiting for him to finish, Ruby interrupted him indifferently, "Even if more
people come and find me in more trouble, it is still futile."
Those people, in front of her, were nothing.
She said it in a light-hearted manner, but between the lines, there was a powerful aura that could not
be taken lightly.
When Benjamin saw this, his face sank slightly, and for a moment he did not know what to say.
On the side, when Raphael saw that the atmosphere between the two seemed to have become a bit
off, the corners of his eyes raised and he simply acted as a peacemaker.
"Ruby, Benjamin is worried about you, although we all know that you are very strong, ordinary people
cannot touch you, but even so, seeing you always face all kinds of dangers, we are not at ease,
besides, Sea City is not much better, in all aspects compared to the capital, it is far worse, why do you
need to stay here?"
As his words fell, Benjamin nodded after him, taking the opportunity to agree.
"Yes, in the capital, you can have whatever you want, and you don't have to face all these troubles.
Ruby, I came to see you today because I sincerely hope that you can come back to the capital with me,
otherwise, I will always be worried."
At these words, a bit of impatience arose in Ruby's heart. As she was about to refuse, a low voice
came from behind her.
"Mr. Hayes, you are really a bit over-worried."
The voice was so familiar that when Ruby turned around, she saw Levi walking over in a cool manner.
She couldn't help but be surprised, "Why are you here? Where is Olivia?"
Levi's sober and cold gaze first swept over Benjamin's face before he looked at Ruby, his eyes
softening a little.
"Olivia is still in the hospital, don't worry, I've arranged for someone to take care of her, there's also
someone outside the ward to protect her, don't worry."
He had always done things in a measured manner, so she naturally had nothing to worry about, but
was only curious, "When did you follow me here?"
Levi clenched his fist with one hand and coughed gently against his lips to hide his embarrassment.
In fact, he had felt that something was wrong after Ruby answered the phone, so he followed her over,
and he had just listened to their conversation.
But he couldn't explain it directly, so he only said vaguely and perfunctorily, "I've just arrived, you and
Olivia hadn't eaten yet, so I came to buy some food, but I didn't expect to meet you here."
Benjamin's face sank as he watched the two of them talk to each other, his brow furrowed, his eyes
suspicious and wary as he looked at the man who had suddenly appeared.
"Who are you?" He asked, his tone unkind.
His intuition told him that this man's relationship with Ruby was not ordinary, so he was inevitably wary
and more hostile in his heart.
Levi was not a fool, so he could naturally hear it.
Immediately, he narrowed his eyes and stared at him, his eyes sharp and his face cool.
He didn't respond immediately, just sizing him up, as if he wanted to see this man through.
He had heard the conversation just now.
Men knew men best, and he could tell at a glance that Benjamin liked Ruby.
As soon as he heard that he intended to take Ruby to the capital, a sense of crisis rose up from the
bottom of his heart, which could not help but make him hostile towards this man as well.
Now, neither of them said anything, they just looked at each other in silence, and an inexplicable low
pressure surrounded them.
Ruby could even feel that the two men's eyes almost collided with each other in a fiery, and she could
not help but be speechless.
Only after a moment's interval did Levi intended to take the initiative to defend his sovereignty.
"Mr. Hayes, hello, I'm Levi Finn, I'm Ruby’s…."
However, just at that moment, his mobile phone suddenly rang, interrupting his declaration of defending
his sovereignty.
This made him slightly displeased, but when he saw the name on the screen, he frowned and
answered it in the end.
"What is it?" Immediately, he picked up the phone.
Chester's voice quickly came over from the other end of the receiver with a full sense of anxiety and
urgency.
"Mr. Levi! Where are you now? An important special mission has just been issued from above, saying
that you have to return to District 7 immediately!"
At these words, Levi's face sank, and he could not afford to delay, so he hung up the phone, hurriedly
spoke to Ruby and hurried away.
Seeing that he was in a hurry, Ruby guessed that it was not a small matter, and did not ask questions,
but only watched him leave.
After he had disappeared, Benjamin looked at Ruby, inexplicably upset, and he could not help but ask.
"Ruby, who is he?"
He had heard of the name of Levi Finn and knew that this man was a figure of the Finn family in Sea
City who could not be underestimated.
Although he didn't know anything about Levi's identity in District 7, through his observation just now, he
immediately found out that this man was by no means an ordinary person.
But no matter how powerful the man's identity was, there was only one thing he cared about.
Hearing that, Ruby replied with alacrity, "He is the most important person to me." C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
Hearing these words, Benjamin's face suddenly changed, as if he had been struck by a great blow, his
face turning pale in an instant.
Ruby stirred the coffee in her cup while hooking the corners of her lips seemingly.
She lifted her eyes, her cool, indifferent gaze looking straight towards the two men as she took her
stand one last time.
"We have been friends for many years, I am happy that you guys can come to see me, but I will not go
back to capital. Where I want to be and what I want to do is my personal decision, I will not be swayed
by anyone, you don't need to mention it again in the future, as for the danger or anything, there is no
need to worry about it either, I can handle it."
As she said, she stood up, "I have things to do, so I'll leave now."
As her voice fell, she left without looking back, without giving Benjamin a second glance.
She had always known about Benjamin's feelings, but she had never said it out.
It was good that to tell him in this way. She had no intention of hiding anything, so she could break his
mind as soon as possible. lightnoveldaily.com
