Omnipotent Mrs. Finn novel Chapter 56

She had spent 50 million to get her hands on that writing, which was worth a lot of money, and it was unpleasant to think that it will be given to the Harold family.

Especially now that Ruby was smiling with a villainous smile, clearly happy to have won something good, but she was sad.

But even if she was unhappy, she still had to maintain a smile on her face, so her smile looked a little stiff.

Levi looked at Ruby with some surprise.

He knew his stepmother very well, and she was closefisted. Even for Isabella's birthday, she would not want to take anything out of her private coffers, but she was so generous this time that she gave Ruby that valuable writing.

He couldn't help but look at Ruby, and then his gaze fell on Hattie's face, who was obviously furious inside, but still trying to put on a smile, suddenly he felt in a good mood.

"Sister, how can we have things from others?" Rita finally found a chance to speak up and reminded Ruby.

"This gift is not for me, but for our dad. This is proof that our family is on good terms with the Finn family."

Ruby looked at Rita in surprise and opened her mouth in a serious manner to explain.

Rita's face changed, and it was not good to speak again when she heard this.

It was just that the way Hattie looked at Rita again at this time was completely different.

Since Ruby had to go back on the pretext of Spencer's birthday, she went out with Rita after dinner and left in the Finn family's car.

When Rita got into the car, she pulled long her face and glared fiercely at Ruby, "Ruby, did you do that on purpose?"

"Deliberately what!?" Ruby asked rhetorically, not knowing how to pretend to understand.

"You knew I wanted to stay with the Finn’s, but you deliberately stirred me up to leave! You didn't do it on purpose?" Rita almost couldn't resist slapping Ruby on the face.

Ruby put one arm around her shoulders and explained to her in a serious tone, "Sis, you are wronging me, I am doing this for your own good."

"Oh, you think I believe you? You just can't see me marrying better than you." Rita scoffed at Ruby's words.

Ruby sighed and explained seriously: "Think about it, if you live in the Finn family without a name, what will Hattie think of you? What will the servants of the Finn family say about you? Wouldn't they think that you are shameless and that you are living in the Finn family for a certain purpose?"

Ruby's words were so convincing that Rita actually had no way to refute them and felt that she had a point.

At first she only thought of finding a chance to get close to Lennon, staying in the Finn family is the most direct and effective, she never thought of this point at all.

Now when she was reminded by Ruby, she suddenly broke out in cold sweat and grabbed Ruby's hand with some anxiety, "What do I do now? I've been staying at Finn's house for several days, why didn't you tell me in advance?"

"Is it useful for me to tell you? Will you believe me? You'll only think I'm screwing you over." Ruby looked innocent, and sighed helplessly.

"Ruby, don't think I'll believe you that you'd be so kind as to want to help me?" Rita grunted.

"If that's the case, then the good show I've carefully arranged for you shouldn't be used. It seems that you are planning to take the test yourself to go after Lennon."

"What! What have you arranged!?" Rita was easily distracted by Ruby's words and asked with a face full of excitement.

The corners of Ruby's lips curved. Her sister was really silly, much better to be dealt with than Susan.

"As long as you listen to me, I guarantee that you can become Lennon’s wife. But then, what you promised me, you must give it me." Ruby reached out, stroked the long hair that fell down the side of her face, and looked at Rita with a smile.

"Yes, but if you dare to lie to me, I will not let you go!" Rita promised, but at the end she couldn't hold back and made a vicious threat.

Ruby could not help but let out a tsk, this person's psychological defense is so weak? She really believed it?

She originally thought it would take quite a lot of effort to convince Rita, but she didn't expect Rita to believe it after a few words.

"Now let's go home first, in two days dad has a birthday celebration. He will definitely invite people from the Finn family, by then Lennon will definitely come too, I will arrange the opportunity for you. You have to seize the opportunity then and try to succeed in one go, understand?"

Ruby leaned close to Rita's ear and whispered to her about her plan.

Rita nodded her head repeatedly, her eyes shining brightly, convinced of Ruby.

It was already late when they got back home, so Ruby didn't run around but went to her room.

It had been many years since she had been back. Ruby looked at everything in front of her with a kind of trance-like feeling, as if she had gone back to many years ago, when she was still the first lady of the Harold family, Nellie was still there, and they were a family of three, happy and harmonious.

She got up early the next day and went for a run. Spencer was already sitting in the living room eating breakfast after she returned from her run.

The house is much quieter with Susan in hospital.

Rita rubbed her eyes and came down from upstairs, seeing that Susan was missing, she couldn't help but ask Spencer in confusion, "Dad, where is mom?"

Spencer was reading the newspaper while drinking his coffee, and as he threw the newspaper in his hand, he said unhappily, "Your mother is not here."

"Why are you yelling at me?" Rita gave Spencer an inexplicable look.

Only then did Spencer realize that his attitude towards Rita was a bit too much. He took a deep breath and steadied his mind before calming down his attitude, "Nothing, your mother had an accident, she's in the hospital. She's having an operation today, if you want to go to the hospital to see her, you can still make it now."

"What!?" Rita was shocked and didn't care about anything else, she asked the location of the hospital and had the family driver send herself over to the hospital.

Ruby came in wiping her sweat, said hello to Spencer and went straight upstairs.

When she came down, Spencer hadn't left yet, so Ruby knew he must be up to something.

"Dad, is there something you want to tell me?" Ruby asked in a very thoughtful manner.

Spencer immediately looked at Ruby with comfort, he felt that Ruby was really sweet and understanding, unlike Rita, whose heart only went to Susan.

"It's like this, that project of the Finn Group has a problem, can you tell the Finn family not to pursue it?" Spencer rubbed his hands together and spoke with a rosy face.

Ruby was slightly stunned, not expecting Spencer to be so bold, and actually dared to make moves on the project.

"Dad, I'll ask Levi. But he doesn't care about the company now, so I don't know if he can handle it. By the way, I told Hattie that you're having a birthday celebration in a few days, and the Finn family will be here then. If my sister can get on with Lennon, then the company's business, for sure, won't be a problem."

Ruby reminded Spencer of this, and Spencer's eyes lit up as he began to calculate in his mind.
