Even though Ruby's plan was working perfectly, the cold blooded cruelty in isabel's words left her momentarily shaken.

To just toss a child away like that. She was beyond cruel.

She was a damn monster.

But she quickly composed herself, playing along and leading Isabel deeper into the trap.

What about the baby's real father? Don't you care how he feels? The father? Isabel scoffed. He was just a fling.

  • Married To a Stranger    Chapter 324

    Mia paused. She remembered overhearing conversations about saving Ruby's mother, and how Ruby had always been a little mysterious and a little different growing up. She didn't press for details. "Cecilia, on the other hand, what's wrong? Does Sebastian Sterling not want you back? If that's how it is, then who needs them?" Anyway, Mrs. Johnson also gave her a concerned look, seeing she'd been misunderstood. Ruby offered a faint smile. "No, it's not like that. I just have some personal business to handle, and being Ruby Anderson right now would just complicate things." "Well, as long as they're not shutting you out, that's good," Cecilia said, patting her chest in relief. Mia laughed at her. "You're overthinking this. The Sterlings already have Penelope and Beatrice. Why wouldn't they want the real treasure?" With that, she turned to Ruby. "But even if we keep quiet—and I'm sure you've told Mr. Sebastian to do the same—we can't be so sure about Penelope and Beatrice." Ruby didn't

    Once she was gone, Penelope turned to Sebastian with a placating smile. "Uncle, my sister and Reina just had a little misunderstanding. Please, don't be upset—I'll go talk to her." With that, she neatly extracted herself from the mess and hurried out the door after her sister. The tension in the room finally began to dissipate as the sisters and their bodyguards disappeared. Cecilia and Mia were still standing on the stairway landing, their eyes wide as they stared at Sebastian. His reputation was the stuff of legends; he was an even more formidable figure than the Knights. Under his leadership, the Sterling Group had flourished, putting them on the cusp of becoming the most powerful dynasty in high society. Neither the Cabort family nor the Wemberly family could even compare. No wonder Penelope and Beatrice had been so arrogant earlier. This whole time, Reina was the real Sterling family heiress. Even before she'd officially rejoined the family, it was already crystal clear to M

    Beatrice's eyes widened in sheer disbelief. Ruby scoffed, "Wow. Such sisterly devotion. Guess it's every woman for herself when things get messy. You should probably wise up, Beatrice, and stop letting her use you as a human shield." Beatrice's eyes stung with tears. Just as she was about to start screaming insults again, Ruby's grip on her arm tightened. Beatrice cried out, "Let go! Let go!" "What about all the furniture you just trashed in my living room?" "That was from you throwing the bodyguards around!" Beatrice shot back. "They're the ones who crashed into it! You—" Ruby wasn't one for empty arguments. She applied a fraction more pressure, her icy silence far more menacing than any shout. Beatrice yelped, "Okay, okay! I'll pay for the damages! Just let me go!" "Fine." Ruby suddenly pulled out her phone and hit the record button. "So, tell me, once I let you go, are you going to come after me again?" "No, I won't!" "Good enough." Ruby released her. Beatrice scrambled

    Penelope spoke up then. "Beatrice, you can't say that. She's Mrs. Caleb Sterling now. We should at least show some respect." Beatrice snickered. "Fine, then she can apologize. If her apology is good enough, maybe we'll let this go." Penelope raised an eyebrow. Mia, however, naively asked, "Okay, look, I'll apologize on Reina's behalf. For whatever happened before, regardless of who was right or wrong, I'm sorry. Can we all just get along now?" Beatrice burst out laughing. "Mia, you can't be that naive. Can you? Do you think a simple 'I'm sorry' is going to cut it?" Mia's brow furrowed. "Then what do you want? How much money?" Beatrice and Penelope exchanged a look. Penelope spoke first. "We don't need money." Mia shot back, "Then what? A house? Jewelry? What is it?" Penelope didn't answer, just gave Ruby a chilling little smile. Beatrice crossed her arms. "We won't make it too hard on our new sister-in-law, what with her pregnant state. We'll just have Reina get on

    The teacher then pointed to a disciplinary notice scrawled on a blackboard. Max's mother glanced over and saw that next to her son's name, Gigi's was written there, too. Her son. Max had cried out immediately, "Mommy, I didn't do it! The teacher spilled the trash on the floor and said it was me, and I didn't put a bug in anyone's bag either! Another kid brought it, and everyone told the teacher, but she blamed me anyway!" Max wailed. Max never lied. His mother believed him. Instantly, she had rounded on the teacher. "You need to apologize to my son right now!" The teacher had scoffed. "I have nothing to apologize for. This was a directive from the board. It has nothing to do with me." It all clicked into place for her. The Sterling sisters were getting back at her for sticking up for Gigi. A feeling of total helplessness washed over her face. Her family's influence was nothing compared to the Sterlings. Even their new partnership with Knight Corporation was just a small foothold for t

    "Oh, we would," Beatrice scoffed. "Do you really think you're some untouchable princess of the Cabot family? Among Boston's top five families, the Cabots rank second to last. Who do you think you are to stand up to us?"Cecilia was momentarily at a loss for words. Beatrice pressed her advantage, a cruel twist to her lips."Everyone just bows down to you, and you've actually started to believe your own hype. The whole city knows you got scammed into a marriage. You almost died in New York and couldn't even make it back home. You're just some lovesick fool who got thrown away. What, did Ruby brainwash you or something?"Cecilia was shaking with fury, but Ruby just let out a small laugh. "What's the matter? Are you two planning on staying single forever?"Beatrice sneered. "We certainly won't end up as lovesick fools like her. The entire city knows what a stupid stunt she pulled. Who would want to marry her now?"Penelope chimed in, "Now, sister, don't say that. Just the other day, she a

    Miss Anderson, you're already married. You cannot marry again. The shocked city clerk said flatly as he slid a paper towards Ruby.
