Chapter 362
“I tell you the details next time.” Kevan keyed in the passcode of the apartment’s door.
Hearing the beeps that signified the door opening. Dylan was shocked. “How do you know the
passcode?”
“Ruby’s living in my place.” Kevan’s expression remained unchanged, and his movements were
natural. “It’s more secluded here, so it’s not that easy for Cody’s people to get in here.”
The picture–taking incident from before, after Kevan looked into it later, was done by people at Cody’s
behest. Getting Ruby to move over was a way to comfort her, and on the other hand, Kevan also did
not want the same thing to happen again–in case his mother caught him and started raging at him
again.
“How come I didn’t know that you had a place here? Dylan looked around curiously, Kevan had never
brought him here before.

Microworks had yet to grow and develop, and his work focus remained on Soaring Corporation. That
was the time period when the infighting amongst the Rogers was at its highest peak. His father had
stepped down from his elevated position then, so the other two families set their sights on him. They
used every lactic possible, going as lar as to hire hilmen to kill him.
In order to live and protect himself, he bought several properties on different stretches of land. No one
knew which home he would go back to every night. After Microworks surpassed Soaring Corporation,
he finally had the money and capablity to deal with his two uncles. Once they had quieted down, he
and Dylan bought a place together and settled down completely.
Tsking, Dylan teased. “Are you bragging right now?”
Kevan eyed him from the corner of his eye and retorted. “Bragging about the fact that I have to change
my home of residence every day because my two uncles are trying to kill me?”
Dylan shut his mouth at once.
Kevan did not tell Ruby beforehand that he was coming. When he entered the apartment, he saw
Ruby–who was unkempt disheveled, and wearing a nightgown–lounging on the sofa, yawning widely
without any care for her Image. When her gaze locked with Kevan’s, her mouth was still open, and she
could not close it due to her shock.
When she finally reacted, it was already half a minute later.
“devan? Why are you here?” She hurriedly got to her feel, anxiously tugging at the hem of her
nightgown while deliberately turning away so he would not see her without makeup.
*The lawyer I’ve hired for you arrived in Bartham today, and I directly brought him over.” Kevan calmly
retrieved a pair of slippers from the shoe cabinel as if he had not noticed her panic.
Dylan revealed himself from behind him, having put away his casual attitude and displaying one of a
professional lawyer.
“Hello, Ms. Cole.” He dipped his head lightly with a smile.
Seeing a stranger Ruby was even more panicked than ever. “Uh, hi Hello? She greeted Dylan with a

please take a seal!”
The coffee table in the living room was filled with empty takeout boxes, and the trash can seemed to
have some food waste in it. There was the smell of greasy food hanging in the air, causing Kevan to
frown.
Dylan snickered quietly with glee. “I guess you won’t be able to live in this apartment even if you
wanted to! With how slovenly Ruby was. she was likely to fuck up Kevan’s apartment so badly that it
would be beyond repair. However, Kevan did not get mad as he anticipated.
“I’ve been planning to sell these properties anyway.” It was just that he had a lot of other things going
on that delayed this plan, so he had not been able to do so on time.
“Clear up this trash.” Kevan indicated the takeout boxes as he gave Dylan the order, while he himself
went over to open the balcony doors.
