Chapter 19 How Dare You to Come Back
They left the sickroom quickly and walked into the office.
Dr. Moore handed the experimental data to Ruby and added, “We have only conducted clinical trials on one patient, so we don’t have enough data to support the effectiveness of the medicine about recovering the brain cells of vegetables who are diagnosed as brain death. I’m trying my best to find more volunteers for the clinical trial.”
“Yeah. You don’t need to be hurried about finding volunteers. Once the medicine is proved to be effective, the whole world is going to be surprised. So you need to keep the project secret and investigate the potential volunteers carefully. Don’t leak it out, or you will be in danger,” Ruby nodded and scanned through the data.
Most of the data came from the experiments on guinea pigs, and they looked pretty good.
And now that Taylor, who had been a vegetable for over three years, could be awoken from the coma after he had been injected with the medicine for a period, it could be proved that the medicine was quite effective to some extent.
“I will be in the city in recent days, so you can call me at any time if you need,” Ruby gave the data back to Dr. Moore.
“Are you really going to marry the guy from the Finn family? You don’t have to waste your time on the people of the Harold family, you know. Why don’t you spend more time in the institute and bring benefit to the whole society?” Dr. Moore complained when he saw her leaving the lab.
“There are some things I have to do,” Ruby smiled coldly. Every time she recalled the scene of her mother dying miserably in front of her, she could no longer be calm.
She was going to take back everything that Spencer had taken from her mother.
Ruby checked the time and assumed that Rita was about to come back home, so she made a smile and waved her hand to Dr. Moore before leaving the institute, “See you.”
An hour later, the taxi was stopped at the gate of the Harolds’ house.
Looking at the mansion which lit up brightly, the smile on her face grew bigger.
While Susan was having a dramatic response to what Ruby had done. She threw away her standing disguise as a virtuous and demure lady with her face distorted by rage.
The only thing she wanted to do now was to tear Ruby apart.
While Ruby was walking into the house slowly and carelessly with her hands in the pocket.
The terrified steward looked at her carefully and started to worry about her.
“How dare you to come back and face me, Ruby!”
Once she saw Ruby get into the house, Susan ran to her in fury and raised her hand to slap her on her face.
Instead of dodging her slap, Ruby walked even closer to her and said calmly, “Think twice before you make a move, Susan. The one you are trying to hit is not only Miss Harold, but also Mrs. Finn in the future.” Her hand, which was diving at the beginning, halted in the air after she heard the words.
She stared at Ruby resentfully and with the impulse to kill her a thousand times. However, she didn’t dare to beat the future Mrs. Finn.
“How could you scheme against Rita! This kind girl was hosting a welcome party for you but then you just treated her like this! How vicious you are, Ruby!” she didn’t dare to strike her but shivered in anger and scolding at her. God knew how frightened she was when she heard that Rita was almost got raped at that place.
Susan had been trying her best to cultivate the image of an upper-class lady in Rita so that she could marry into a noble family and become the hostess. If she was raped by those people, it would be impossible for her to find a husband from a noble family anymore!
“What did I do to her? You must be wrong about me,” Ruby said with an innocent look, while she was overjoyed in her mind for seeing Susan get enraged.
She loved to see Susan lose one’s temper but couldn’t do anything to her.
“I’m wrong? It was you who forced Rita to drink the wine! And you knew the wine was added with…” Susan suddenly realized something and stopped talking about that before she could finish her words.
Then, she glanced at Ruby in resentment and said crossly, “I don’t care about your excuse. No matter in what kind of situation, you shouldn’t leave your sister in such a place. The place is infested with hooligans. If she becomes the target of them…”
“Oh? Such a place? But Susan, I’m not the one who drives her there. On the contrary, It was Rita who led me there by herself. Speaking of the wine, she was also voluntary to drink it. What? Did she tell you that it was me forcing her to drink it?” Ruby blinked her eyes with an innocent look, like she had nothing to do with this mess.
Susan burst into anger but couldn’t say a word to retort her.
It was Rita who insisted to bring Ruby to the bar, and Ruby did reject it before.This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
Though Rita nearly fell into those men’s hands, she didn’t have any reason to blame it on Ruby.
Susan couldn’t understand how could Ruby be such a nuisance. Though she never said something aggressive, her words could irritate you so easily.
She knew she was reaping what she had sowed and couldn’t find any reason to let her account for this, so she had to suffer it with no excuse.
She had never been in such disgrace after she became the hostess of the Harold family.
Looking at Ruby’s face, Susan gritted her teeth silently, but when it reminded her of the marriage and the Finn family, she had to restrain her anger to her.
“Why do you come back so late? You are the fiancée of Levi Finn now, just behave yourself. Stop wandering around so late at night or Mrs. Finn is going to scold you for this,” Susan still felt irritated and tried to make trouble for her.
But Ruby just smiled and nodded obediently after hearing this, “You are right, Susan. From now on, I will be staying at home to wait for the marriage and never leave the house without necessity at night.”
Susan was so displeased now.
She was insinuating that Ruby was a dissolute girl, but Ruby didn’t take her insinuation at all.
This made her feel like she make a punch to a pillow. She made the effort, but the pillow was still intact.
Ruby yawned and walked upstairs carelessly.
Two minutes later, Rita’s scream came out from the second floor.
“Ahhhh! What are you doing, Ruby!”
Ruby picked her ears and looked at Rita in a calm manner, “Dad told me that I could pick any room I like in the house as my bedroom. I love your room, so please find yourself another room.”
Rita stared at her astonishedly with a pale face, “You want me to give my room to you? Do you think you deserve it? I’m the inheritor of the Harold family after all!”
“Oh? Really? Maybe you should marry that cripple from the Finn family. They say he is going to marry the inheritor of Harold family, you know,” Ruby glanced at her peacefully and said in a casual tone.
While Rita was so annoyed for not being able to refute her words.
Then, she gave up the room reluctantly. This was the brightest and coolest room in the house, but she didn’t have any way to defend it from Ruby.
Ruby had changed. She was no longer the naïve and gullible girl five years ago.
