Chapter 331

Kevan locked down at her with a glare, ordering her once again to “Shut up!”

After Kewan had sent Larissa home, he rushed over to where Ruby was staying. When he arrived, there was no one at the door. But there were several obvious foot imprints on the dark brown anti–theft door, and it was clearly from a man.

He did not press the doorbell but called Ruby directly and told her, “Ruby, I’m here, Corn the door.”

Two minutes later, the door opened, and Kevan was about to walk in when Ruby rushed but, crashing into his arms, Her arms were wrapped tightly around his waist, her body shaking like a lear “Kevan… You’re finally here Her tears well his chest causing him to frown in discomfort. Kevan raised his hand to pat her back gently.

“It’s alright.” He soothed her over and over. “Cody’s gone. You’re alright”

Ruby sniffled and sobord for a while before she slowly recovered. They entered the house together and Kevan poured her a glass of warm water. He sat next to her, with only a few inches al space between them. Ruby was still trembling, a lew droplets of tears still clinging to her eyelashes. She picked up the glass and look a little sip.

“Kevan, he knows about this place now. It’s not sale,‘ she said. “I can’t live here anymore. He will come and find me again.”

Kevan went along with her and gave a noise of acknowledgment. “I have a few other houses I bought as an investment. TII take you to have a look tomorrow, and you can pick whichever one you like.”

“Kevan Ruby tugged on his hand, pouting pitifully and helplessly. “No matter where I move. Cody will find me. The moment he has a chance, he will ‘nd me ” Kevan said nothing, waiting for what she would say “Could you leave me alone keep on accompanying me?” Ruby lung herself into his arms again, her hands clutching at the front of his clothes. “Don’t Please I’m scared Kevan stroked her hair and said, “I have work so I cant possibly accompany you all the time. If you re truly afraid, I can find a trusted bodyguard for you, and make sure that she shadows you at all times.”

“I don’t want a bodyguard! I only want you” Ruby got more and more agitated as she buried her lace into his chest shouling. “I only trust you! You’re the only one Cody can’t briber “Ruby, listen to me.” Kevan’s voice became a little stem.

Ruby stiffened but slowly stopped crying. She did not leave his arms though “I cannot possibly abandon my job for you. Desides, a professional bodyguard would be able to protect you better than I can. Kevan rasoned with her.

Ruby immediately changed lack. “Okay, I want the bodyguard. Out” She lifted her tear–stained cheeks and gazed at him with hopeful eyes. “Can you come and accompany me to work?”

Kevan was silent for two seconds. “Okay,” he sad.

Ruby smiled through her lears. “You’re still the best to me, Kevan!”

Kevan smiled. “Of course,”

Ruby gazed at him intensely, before her smile vanished all of a sudden. It was as if she had made a big decision as her eyes became determined, and she straightened up abruptly, closing her eyes to kiss Kevan on the lips.
