Mystery Bride's Revenge

Ruby feli relieved bearing Selina's words. She put down her glass and stretched languidly.

Ruby revealed, "Selin, believe it or not, I've given up on Mr. Brady ever since he pushed me away. I said I would try my best, and I did but Mr. Brady wasn't interested in me, so I decided to let go. I didn't want to have any regrets but I'm not a masochist. I did wonder what kind of woman a man like hum would fall in love with so after knowing of your existence, I was curious about you. I never had the chance to meet you before so now that I have, I don't want to leave with regrets. I have completely lost to you, Selina."

Ruby continued, "The way you faced the things I threw at you gave me the perfect answer. You walked into countless people's hearts, while I became the wicked woman filled with jealousy over being unable to win over Trevon. Ruby felt relieved after pouring her heart out. "I wish you and Mr. Brady the best. May you grow old together," she added.

Selina was assured of Ruby's sincerity after looking at her expression. Selina had become discerning at knowing if people were deceiving now. If Ruby could really put one over her. Selina planned to make use of this opportunity to become more adept at reading people. "I know you're sincere. Ruby. I kind of admire you actually. Let's add each other's WhatsApp. Friends suggested Selina.

"Are you sure? Aren't you worried that I am only pretending? What if I'm just playing the sympathy card to get your attention and get closer to Mr. Brady before finally breaking you guys up?" asked Ruby.

"You're a proud woman. It would have sounded more believable if you had told me that you liked me and were trying to get my attention while driving a wedge between me and Trevon to win over me, joked Selina.

Ruby was amused by Selma's words and remarked, "Well, I have kept my eyes on you since the first time we met and it seems like I have achieved my goal by debasing myself Selina. I think our similar interests will be key to us becoining great friends." "Of course, I have no doubts over my judgment, replied Selina

When Trevon came over he saw Ruby holding hands with Selina and chatting happily. He felt slightly speechless and confused. He wondered, "What's going on" He quickened his pace and approached Selina and Ruby before questioning coldly. "What are you planning toward Selina"" Selina voiced reproachfully "Hey! Trevon, don't talk to my new friend like that

Trevon was baffled as he glanced at Selina and realized she was not joking. He wondered, Friends? Earlier, Ruby targeted Selina and dragged her onto the stage before staging a drama. Why are they friends now? What exactly happened?

"Mr. Brady. I know there has been plenty of misunderstanding between us. To be honest, I don't care anymore because I have completely given on you. New Far more interested in Selina than in you," reassured Ruby, letting go of Selina and smiling "Selina. I think it's time I let you get back to Mr. Brady. Let's get together sometime. The more I get to know you, the more curious 1 get and it makes me want to know you better.

"Of course. I'll introduce some of my friends to you, chirped Selina.

"Deal" responded Ruby before turning around and leaving, without giving another glance at Trevon. Even earlier when she looked at Trevon, her gaze was calm, with none of the fire from before. Ruby's desire for Trevon died on the night when Trevon threw her aside. As Selina said, Ruby had her pride and proud women learned their lessons the first time around

"So. Honey, do you mind explaining why your jealousy earlier regarding the Raby incident had now changed to you being friendly with her? I was going to deal with the Crown Group remarked Trevon. Ruby had repeatedly challenged Trevon's bottom line by targeting Selina. For him, no matter who they were, that was considered an unforgivable offense

Selina held Trevor's hand and cajoled, Darling, do me a favor and don't touch Crown Group, alright?"

Trevon'clasped Selina's fingers and sighed. "Hanry, sometimes I think I understand you well, but sometimes I just don't get you..."

Just remember that women are the most difficult creatures in the work to understand. Most of the lime, we run with our emotions and do whatever we want. If someone is nice, we get along with them and if it's the opposite, we stay away from them. It's simple, Well, the party is almost over. Let's head home, answered Selina.

"Okay.. Trevon muttered. Then, he mused. It seems like I still have a long way to go before fully understanding Selinas thoughts. But there's nothing to worry about. I have a lifetime to slowly get to know the woman I love.

When Ruby returbed

to the hotel, Charley took the initiative in visit her and asked, "What exactly are your thoughts on Selina?" "Nothing, I just wanted to see how outstanding the woman Mr. Brady fell in love with was," replied Ruby

Ts that it! Haven't you need the strange look people are giving you? Ruby, is this worth it?" quizzed Charley, absolutely sure now that Kutty >> helsior was the most suple thing she had done. After all, the elevated impression everyone had of Ruby after Trevon rejected her had once again tabel to the bottom. Yet. Huby had gone ahead with 1.

Charley shook his head helplessly. "I really don't understand what you women are thinking."

"I'm honored to have Mr. Griffin, a known ladies' man, say that," sneered Ruby.

"Hey, Ruby, when did I become a ladies' man! This is slander! Which bastard disparaged about me in front of you..." furned Charley.

"Ms. Lane," interrupted Timothy right then as he came over with an arrogant look in his eyes. "Are you sure you don't want to think over the matter I told you before?" he asked.

There's nothing to think over, snapped back Ruby. I have admitted defeat to Selina. And if you try to hurt Selina using these dirty methods, you have to get through to me first. Selina is now my friend!"

Timothy, Cora, and Sara who were following behind, were all shocked into silence when they heard Ruby's declaration. 'Did Ruby say actually friends with Selina? Is Ruby crazy! they wondered.

Ruby turned around and left, not feeling the need to explain herself to irrelevant people. She could not erase what she had done and she had no egrets. Plus, she did not think there was a need to regret these things. Charley sneered, Timothy, think about your own career. Everyone has high expectations of you. Don't just hide behind others and throw jibes to

urt a woman. Do you know how despicable that is?"

What did Ruby say to you? fumed Timothy

She didn't say anything to me, but I've seen a lot of men like you who think they have no bonom line. I really enjoy seeing guys like you blow their ops when someone makes fun of them, sneered Charley.
