Rita's face became paler.
Ruby is really a country bumpkin, how could she such vulgar and unpleasant words?
She glanced at Levi, who was sitting in a wheelchair, and she grew more and more disdainful.
"How can you talk like that, sister? I, of course I don't have any intentions towards my brother-in-law." Rita had an aggrieved look, and when she spoke, she even lightly bit her lower lip and gave Levi a look.
Unfortunately, Levi was like a wooden man, not receiving Rita's eyes at all, but said, "I'm not interested in you. But it is indeed unseemly for you to dress like this. Our family has a strict discipline, since you are a guest, it is better to behave well and do not make a grace for your family."
Rita's face was pale. Feeling embarrassed, she could not wait to have a hole that she could get in.
Levi was simply mean. She was clearly kind to remind him that Ruby was a woman who can sleep with any men, but he didn't appreciate it and instead spoke for Ruby sarcastically. He deserved to only be able to have a second-hand woman like Ruby!
The smile on Rita's face couldn't be maintained, and she almost couldn't even say a word.
"I'm, I'm tired, so I'll just, just go back to my room."
Rita almost fell away.
She was severely irritated by Ruby and Levi.
Ruby was in a good mood, closed the door and took the initiative to push Levi’s wheelchair, "There is no one in the room, do you have to stay in the wheelchair?"
Looking at the man sitting immobile in his wheelchair, Ruby asked curiously.
Levi raised his eyes, his eyes hidden under the mask staring at her calmly.
After a long moment, he tugged at the corner of his mouth and asked casually, "When did you know?"
"There was some suspicion when we first met." Ruby was a medical student, and she was able to tell at a glance if he was paralysis.
Levi's breath was long, his face was rosy, and he didn't look paralyzed at all.
If a normal person had been paralyzed in the lower half of his body and had been sitting in a wheelchair for a long time, it would not have been possible for him to be like this.
And it was the day before in the car when she was really sure his leg was okay.
"Has anyone ever told you that it's not good for a woman to be too smart?" Levi looked at Ruby with a wry smile.
"No." Ruby recalled seriously, and answered quite honestly.
This look of hers made Levi couldn't help but curl his lips in pleasure.
"Now that you know, what are you going to do? Threaten me with this, or go and expose me to gain benefits?" Levi leaned lazily on his wheelchair, but his deep eyes did not leave Ruby's face.
"That's a good idea, how much do you think about you pretending to be crippled can be worth? If I go and expose you to Hattie, how much will she give me?" Ruby tilted her head and looked at Levi, as if she was seriously considering how much this news was worth.
Levi knew that she would not tell anyone about this matter, and his impression of Ruby has unconsciously changed subtly.
"I suppose a lot." He smiled, casually answering the question.
"But, I don't like her, so, Mr. Fiance, you should be nice to me, and I can help you keep it hidden. Even if you want to really become a cripple to hide it from the others, I can help you too." Ruby got up and approached Levi, her fingers hooked his chin and lifted his face up.
The mask was in the way, but it was easy to see that the man was good looking.
Inexplicably Ruby felt that look was somewhat familiar, and she was wondering if she had seen it somewhere before, but suddenly her waist was taken by someone with force, and in the next moment she was sitting on his lap, being held tightly around the waist.
