Nemesis Game

Chapter 84 You Are No Better

Ruben’s words were full of provocation. Luke looked calm as usual and he pressed all the coldness

and viciousness in his heart.

The corner of his lips curled up, “Thanks for Mr. Knight’s suggestion, I will definitely sit on this position

and never fall off easily to let somebody happy.”

No one knew who was the ‘somebody’ that he referring to.

It might be Gabriel or Ruben.

Although Luke was not willing to be Ruben’s enemy, Ruben shouldn’t blame him for being bad if he

helped Gabriel to seize power!

Samantha’s consciousness was a little fuzzy. She grabbed his arm tightly but accidentally touched the

wound on the back of her hand. She couldn’t bear the pain and took a deep breath.

It was hard for her to believe that Ruben would stand up for her today.

She wished to tell herself that everything in front of her was a dream and this happening was just her

fantasy.

But the breath of Ruben around her was so strong and his temperature was so real that she had no

reason to suspect the reality of all the things in front of her at the moment.

She grabbed his arm and the temperature of her palm passed through his suit to the depths of his

blood.

He glanced at Luke with a smile at the corner of his mouth, but his eyes were full of gloomy light as if

horrible troubles were about to arrive.

“It seems that Mr. Baker is very confident.” He chuckled lightly.

Luke smiled too. He squinted his eyes, “As the heir of the Baker family, how can I not be confident?”

Ruben realized that Samantha’s situation was getting worse. He sneered and hugged her sideways,

walking out of the set directly.

“Mr. Baker seems to have forgotten one thing. You are not the only heir of the Baker family.”

And Gabriel was just Luke’s Achilles’ heel.

As soon as those words came out, Luke eyes were full of tyranny and coldness which could not be

hidden.

Samantha felt a huge force that turned her over and her exclamation almost overflowed from her

throat.

He put one of her arms at the back of her neck and carried her in his arms.

Although Ruben was very careful, Samantha’s wound was still pulled by the force.

She looked at his angular profile, hugging his neck tightly. Her body stiffened, even her heartbeat

seemed to disappear, and she just froze in his arms like a puppet without soul.

At the moment, all the sounds from the surrounding were gone.

She only felt that the whole world was so quiet as if there left only the sound of their breathing and her

heart began to beat in the quiet air.

He... actually hugged her?

The crowd was shouting, watching Ruben and Helena go far away.

“Oh my God, she was so blessed.”

“Miss Helena is so capable. So many men were deceived by her.”

“One will be Mr. Gabriel, and the other will be Mr. Ruben. So who is the one that she loves?”

Samantha was very guilty. They were just having quarrel in the hospital not long ago but he actually

helped her out when she was having troubles.

She leaned on his chest and clearly felt the hardness and warmth of his chest. He was like a stalwart

mountain who was able to withstand all her injuries and doubts.

But could she just forget all the injuries in the past? Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

She couldn’t forget everything of the past due to his little momentary kindness.

She couldn’t forget it. She reminded herself again and again in her heart.

As a result, the touch and softness in Samantha’s eyes was covered by coldness.

She lowered her long eyelashes and said coldly, “Let me down, I can walk by myself.”

Her knee was injured but it was just a small case to her.

The deepest pain in her past was all because of him.

Therefore, her icy heart couldn’t be melt even if she was given much warmth now.

Ruben looked at her coldly. His arms tightened of a sudden as if he wanted to put her into his own flesh

and blood.

“So how? Are you going to put me aside now after using me?” The man's eyebrows and eyes were

covered with a thin layer of frost and snow. His tone was cold and merciless.

Samantha didn't know what he thought of, “What do you mean?”

Ruben snorted disdainfully. His tone was cold and mocking.

“Didn't you let Clara ask me for help? Your Gabriel is so awesome, why don't you seek help from him? I

didn’t expect that there will be a day that you seek help from me!” Ruben stimulated her purposely.

He was willing to take the initiative to hug her and yet she showed her sullen face to him?

Who did she think she was?

Samantha just felt a pain in her eyebrows and spoke word by word, “I didn't ask you to save me.”

Ruben stopped walking and his eyesight was getting cold.

“So what you mean is I'm just wish thinking all the time?” He squinted slightly and examined her face

expression, “Then I really shouldn't come to save you, I should look at you like looking at a dog and let

you be humiliated by Luke. I should just let you wait for your Gabriel to go and save you!”

Samantha was sure that he would throw her to the ground immediately if she dared to say a ‘yes’.

She looked back at him. Her hands that hooked around his arms lose slightly, her eyesight was still

stubborn and indifferent.

She smiled sadly. She used the back of her hand which was covered with blood to wipe the corner of

her lips, leaving a trace of red blood.

“It is true that Luke humiliated me, but how come you think you are any better than him?”
