Owen frowned and said, "This ain't Lucinda's doing, it's,"

He took a pointed look at Megan, then said coldly, "Ruby went to Stefan's villa in Diamond Ridge Estates to see him, but he wouldn't see her. Then she ran into the princess of the Dewey family, who also has a thing for Stefan, and they had a catfight out of jealousy."

Olina immediately looked at Megan.

Megan opened her mouth, trying to defend her daughter, but found herself lost for words.

Her face turned sour.

Feeling disappointed, she sighed, "That kid is such a letdown; I need to give her a good talk when I get home."

"Olina, Owen, I need to head back."

Megan felt she had lost face and didn't want to stay any longer.

Her daughter's behavior had made her furious.

Even though she had had a heart-to-heart with her daughter and her daughter had agreed to behave, the minute Megan left, Ruby went out to find Stefan.

She was livid!

Neither Owen nor Olina tried to keep Megan.

When Megan left, Olina looked at her son's indifferent, handsome face, at a loss for what to say.

She didn't think much of Cecilia, considering her unworthy of her son.


Ruby was her favorite. She had her heart set on Ruby being with her son, but Ruby still had eyes for Stefan.

Ruby was treating her son like a backup option!

Olina was feeling pretty upset.

For the first time, she felt that Ruby was really out of line!
