Faux Vows, True Desires

Owen was not as thrilled as he expected to be when he heard Megan's words, which surprised him. He used to be over the moon when Megan said something like this, but at that time, he was more annoyed than anything. Perhaps, he was genuinely hurt by Ruby for his feelings to be that way.

After mulling it over, Owen agreed to visit the Scott family. Megan was finally relieved only after knowing that Owen was willing to come visit them. Owen had always been infatuated with Ruby, so he wouldn't easily let go of his feelings for her.

After hanging up the phone with Megan, Owen had been silent for two minutes before he finally left his office.

Just as he opened the office door, he saw his male secretary holding a document bag. The secretary was about to knock when Owen stepped out.

"Boss."

The secretary handed the document bag to Owen and said, "This is from Edgar of Ascend Global. He asked me to give it to you."

Hearing this, Owen became even more curious. He took the document bag and asked, "I have no business dealings with Ascend Global. Why would Edgar send me documents?"

Was Edgar planning to betray Stefan by sending him confidential documents from Ascend Global as a condition for the exchange?

Owen opened the document bag, which contained several papers and a bunch of photos. He stared at the photos and was completely puzzled while the secretary curiously peeked over. Owen held onto the photos tightly, not letting him see and ordered him,

"Get back to work."

Owen said sternly, then quickly headed to his private elevator with the photos and what seemed to be medical records.

Once in the elevator, he began to go through the photos again. The more he looked, the worse his facial expression became. The photos were all intimate pictures of Ruby with different men.

If the photos had brought down Owen's mood, then the papers had completely cooled his feelings for Ruby.

They were records of a surgery Ruby had done abroad, a hymenoplasty.

The photos and papers, like autumn leaves, slipped from Owen's hands and scattered all over the elevator floor.

Owen was pale. He leaned against the elevator wall, refusing to believe that what he saw was real.

Owen wasn't surprised that Ruby had been dating abroad. In his eyes, she was a beautiful woman. It was impossible to think that no one would pursue her. It was only normal for her to try to forget Stefan, who had previously left her for a new relationship.
