Levi’s eyes were alert, his tone not really polite, “What do you want from her?”

Ruby was positioned inward and couldn’t be seen from the angle Hallie was standing at the door.

At that moment, the end of her eyes lifted and she smiled flirtatiously,

“Handsome, I didn’t come here to eat anyone, why are you so nervous?”.

Levi disliked such frivolous women the most, so he instantly lifted his face and his tone became even harsher, “Miss, please behave yourself.”

“Just because I’m addressing you as handsome?”.

Unperturbed, Hallie leaned against the door and her eyes rested frivolously on him, looking him up and down.

“You’re very handsome, it’s all right that I called you that, but I’m curious, who are you to Miss Harold?”.

As he had just arrived at the Institute, he learned that Ruby had arrived and didn’t know that Ruby had come with Levi.

Nor did he know that Ruby had married.

At that moment, Levi’s brow furrowed imperceptibly and he said dryly, “I am her husband, Levi Finn.”

At that, Hallie was puzzled, “Husband? Miss Harold is already married?”

She just knew that Benjamin paid a lot of attention to this woman, but she didn’t expect that, even though this woman was married and had a family, Benjamin still refused to give up.

A wave of unspeakable jealousy and pain twisted her heart, she gritted her teeth and did her best to suppress the emotions in her heart so as not to lose her temper.

At that moment, she forced herself to keep smiling patronizingly and said, “I see, it’s nice to meet you.”

She offered him her hand, her nails painted red.

Levi just looked at her, not intending to shake her hand, his expression was still very cold.

“Miss Hallie, if there is anything you want to tell me, please tell me directly. I will pass it on to Ruby in case your message is for her.”

In a completely protective gesture, she shielded Ruby in the room, not intending to let this woman meet Ruby.

Instantly, a strong feeling of crisis and jealousy stirred in her heart, shaking her for a moment, her eyes slightly cold.

She said nothing, but Ruby didn’t bother to glare at her, and took the initiative by asking, “Miss Hallie, what did you want to see me about?”

Snapped out of her thoughts by his voice, Hallie pursed the corners of her lips, changed her posture from leaning against the door frame and straightened up.

She didn’t want to come on top and lose momentum on their first encounter.

However, she wasn’t short, but in front of Ruby she was still short and could only lift her chin slightly to meet her gaze.

“Hello, Miss Harold, nice to meet you, my name is Hallie, I’m from the same country as you, but I’ve been living in Country Y for the past few years.”

Ruby nodded her head, with no expression on her face, and said lightly, “What exactly have you come to see me about?”

She pressed the subject again, clearly showing her disinterest in the other party.

Hallie’s expression froze, but returned to normal after a few moments; her lips curved condescendingly, but her manner remained polite.

“Actually, I just heard that a valued guest, who is a woman, has come to the Institute, as a woman myself, I thought I’d come over and take a look. She has just arrived at the Institute, perhaps she doesn’t know that the situation here is simply that of a monk’s temple, not even a female researcher has been hired, so I am bored alone. I have come to show my enthusiasm. You are new to the Institute. You may not be familiar with this place, but that’s okay, I’ll have time to accompany you around whenever you want, I can also give you an introduction.”

At those words, Ruby raised her eyebrows, as if accepting his words, “Is that so? That would be great, I’ll probably stay here for the next few days, it would just be nice to have someone who could show Levi and I around.”

As he spoke, he glanced at Levi out of the corner of his eye.

Levi looked back at her, but said nothing.

Seeing that, Hallie said, “Well, then it’s about to be noon for dinner, why don’t you join me.”

Ruby didn’t refuse and readily agreed, “Sure, but I just finished my exam and now I need to change clothes, so I suggest we meet in the dining room.”

Hallie smiled, “No problem, I’ll wait for you in the dining room then.”

After closing the door, the faces of the three people inside and outside the door changed.

Outside the door, Hallie’s fake smile vanished in an instant, staring at the door panel in front of her, her eyes as if she wanted to poke a hole in it.

At last I see you, Ruby!

I’d like to see what kind of magic you have that can hook Benjamin’s soul!

Since Benjamin is deliberately trying to take you into his palm, I’m sorry, but no matter what, I won’t let you two be together!

…

At the door, the curvature of Ruby’s mouth also tightened, and she turned to enter the bedroom.

Levi followed her in, and asked, “What do you think of that woman?”

Ruby sat on the edge of the bed, her fingers pinched a corner of the bedspread.

“No comment.” She thought for a moment and answered.
