To the Love of My Life-Chapter 840 - Ruby Time: The Wedding (Finale 10)_1
Chapter 840: Chapter 840 Ruby Time: The Wedding (Finale 10)_1
Ruby Gregory didn’t make a sound, just let Madeleine cry as much as she wanted. Only when Madeleine finally stopped crying from exhaustion did she pull Madeleine to sit on the sofa, press the still sobbing Madeleine down, walk over to the water dispenser nearby, pour a glass of water for Madeleine, and hand it to her, then sit beside her.
Clutching the water Ruby had poured for her, Madeleine took a few sips and finally spoke up, “Ruby, Howard and his ‘little true love’ slept together last night.”
The moment Madeleine’s words settled, the thought flashed through Ruby’s mind—what if Steve Burton slept with another woman? Immediately, she felt as if someone had viciously clenched her heart, the pain was so suffocating that she could hardly breathe. She thought, this must be how Madeleine feels right now.
She really wanted to console Madeleine, but she didn’t know how to.
Madeleine lowered her eyelids and stayed quiet for about a minute before she continued. Her voice was hoarse and dull from too much crying, “It hurts to see him with other women, but it doesn’t feel as desperate as when he’s with his ‘little true love.’ I know he doesn’t love those women, he only does it to spite and insult me.”
“But, Ruby, I really don’t have the courage to drive away Howard’s ‘little true love’ for a second time. Howard likes his ‘little true love,’ and if I don’t drive her away, sooner or later, I’ll lose Howard.”
...
“Ruby, it was so hard to finally marry Howard, I endured all his resentment and anger, and now that we’ve finally softened towards each other, I really don’t want to give up. But you know, no matter how good I am or how hard I try, I can’t compare to his true love in his heart…”
“In the past, I thought, I wouldn’t let go of Howard. I was determined to fight with him to the bitter end, but these last few days, seeing Howard staring at the phone while texting his ‘little true love,’ lost in thought, struggling, and conflicted, I felt sorry for him. I really considered letting him go, to give him his happiness with his ‘little true love.’ But, Ruby, he took a knife for me. He hates me so much, yet he took a knife for me. If he didn’t have me in his heart, why would he do that? What if I let him go, and it turns out I am in his heart, wouldn’t we have missed our chance? And recently, he’s been eating the late-night snacks I made, and he doesn’t stay out all night anymore, Ruby…”
Madeleine rambled on, then lifted her damp eyelashes, looking at Ruby Gregory, “Ruby, can you do me a favor and think of a way to find out what’s really in Howard’s heart?”
–
Madeleine was Ruby Gregory’s best friend in life, a request from her was something she’d never refuse. So after some thought, she called Steve Burton and asked him to help test Howard’s feelings.
Steve Burton had always considered himself a man of integrity, but that was when Ruby Gregory wasn’t involved. Now that Ruby had personally asked for his help, he didn’t hesitate to betray his own brother.
Steve Burton kept his mobile phone in a call with Ruby, locked the screen, placed it on the coffee table, and then dialed an intercom to ask Howard Coleman to come to his office.
