Come To Me (Amelia and Patrick) novel Chapter 2006

Faced with his wife's concern, Ryan replied, "It's no big deal."

As for the authenticity of his words, no one knew.

"That's good!" Ruth placed her hand on his chest and leaned her head against his chest. She said softly, "Ryan, I’m begging you. Please don't hide anything from me. I won't ask anyone to follow you secretly. It hurts our relationship."

Ryan tightened his fist and said, "Sure."

"If you still don't want to tell me... huh?" Ruth thought she had heard it wrong. "What did you say?"

Ryan said with difficulty, "I'm willing to tell you everything I've hidden before. Let's find a seat and talk about it."

"Good, good!" Ruth excitedly held his arm and sat down on the sofa.

Ryan then turned to the servants by his side and said, "All of you can leave now."

"Yes." The servants all left.

When there were only the two of them left in the large living room, Ryan opened his mouth again and said, "Ruth..."

Looking at his gloomy face, Ruth's breath tightened subconsciously, and then she encouraged and said, "Just say it, it's okay!"

"I have to apologize to you first," Ryan said without any logic. He continued, "You've been worried about me during this period of time."

Hearing this, Ruth almost cried. "It's good that you can understand!"

After a while, she added, "You don't have to apologize for this. Everyone will be in a bad state. As your wife, what I have to do is not to make things difficult for you, but to relieve your worries. It's just that you haven't revealed your feelings to me for a long time, so I don't know what to do."

Ryan was silent for a moment. "Ruth, I'm sorry. I'm not referring to this matter."

Ruth was stunned and asked, "What's that?"

Ryan looked disappointed as he said, "When I was young, I made a mistake and it was related to our relationship, so I kept it a secret and didn't tell you.

I thought it would be perfect. Recently, I found out that the mistake that I ignored turned into a crime without me knowing it!"

He had become a scumbag who had abandoned his own daughter. To Ryan, who had always been strict with himself, this was a crime!

Ruth's eyes widened. "Ryan, what did you do when you were young that you had to hide it from me?"

What did he mean by saying, "It's related to our relationship?"

Ruth had a bad feeling about this, but she found it hard to believe, unless Ryan had said it himself!

Ryan pursed his lips. For the past month or so, he had been hesitating and always wanted to seize the opportunity to confess this matter to his wife.

This hesitation dragged on until today.

As for most of the reason why he hesitated, it was because he wanted to know Amelia's attitude. If Amelia was willing to accept him as his father, he would definitely have the courage to tell Ruth the truth.

And today, he finally blocked Amelia's way. From her words, he heard her stand. She told him not to disturb her again, or her "father" would be unhappy.

In an instant, he had lost all his courage and it was replaced by despair.

Despair was also a good catalyst.

It would make people do impulsive things.

Although Ryan didn't think that he was being impulsive right now, he felt that he had to say it out loud. If he did, at least his wife would know that he had a daughter, but if he didn't say it out loud, he would have to choke himself to death.

As a result, Ruth heard from him that he had a one- night stand with a maid in his family when he was young. She was so shocked that her scalp was numb, her limbs were cold, and her teeth even made a slight creaking sound because of her trembling.

Ryan reached out to her worriedly. "Ruth..."

At the moment when her shoulder was touched, Ruth suddenly screamed, "Don't touch me!!!"

Ryan’s fingers froze.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ruth had already bounced away and sat at the end of the sofa.

"..." Ryan looked at her in pain.

However, Ruth avoided his eyes and held her arms tightly with both hands, as if she had been touched by something dirty just now, which was horrible and disgusting.

Ryan had no choice but to remain quiet.

After a long time, Ruth slowly put down her hands and asked in a hoarse voice, "That maid... is it Safa?"

Although Ryan didn't say her name directly, the servants at home, especially the young maids, weren't many when they had just gotten married. Ruth made a slight comparison and immediately locked onto the "female lead" from her husband's mouth.

By this time, tears had already filled her face.

She would never have thought that their decade of relationship was not as beautiful as she thought!

It turned out that her marriage was full of lies. It turned out that her husband, who was said to be devoted to love, had an affair with other women when he was young!

"I swear I won't!"

Ruth said coldly, "Okay, call her."

By the time Safa arrived at the Home of Quartley home, the bright moon was already hanging high in the sky.

She had no choice. After coming out of the Streams Villa, she had to go by water and land. Halfway, she had to use ships and cars. In addition, she had to change her station, so she couldn't reach within a few hours.

However, as soon as Safa heard Ryan's call, she was overjoyed. She didn't feel that long journey was a torture.

Until now, she still didn't know that the strong men who had beaten her into the hospital were Ryan's men.

It was ridiculous that Safa, who had been knocked unconscious by the strong men in the alley, felt very sorry for Ryan after being sent to the hospital by a kind- hearted passerby.

She called Ryan and wanted to explain to him that she didn't mean to stand him up.

Unfortunately, Ryan didn't answer the call.

She thought that he didn't answer her call because he was angry with her. She lived an uneasy life every day.

She didn't expect that Ryan would take the initiative to contact her today, which made her so flattered that she ignored the coldness in his tone.

As a matter of fact, she knew that it wasn't a good thing that Ryan contacted her.

But Safa was a fool. If not, why would she be stupid enough to climb into her master's bed?

In addition, she was certain that Ryan wouldn't dare to expose their relationship. In this way, Ruth would definitely make things difficult for him.

However, this time, not only did Ryan expose her, but he also asked her to confront Ruth, which made Safa stunned.

Ruth didn't talk nonsense with her. She said bluntly, "Tell me, how did you get together with my husband that year?"

In her opinion, Safa was the "elder" at home. She trusted her so much that she was willing to let her take care of her son and grandson.

She didn't expect that over the years, she had been indulging in a vixen and making the house stinky!

The more she thought about it, the colder Ruth looked at Safa. "I will only give you one chance. If you dare to lie to me, you will have to bear the consequences!"

Safa was stung by the hatred in her eyes. Her legs gave way and she knelt on the ground. She kneeled and said, "Madam, it was my wishful thinking! I took the initiative to seduce Mr. Quartley! I was foolish! I was foolish..."
