Recalling Ruby's attitude toward him over the years, Owen suddenly halted his steps.

He should kick it to the curb! He didn't want to be anyone's second choice anymore, nor did he want to have anything to do with Ruby. He knew if he kept this up, he was only going to be left hurt. When he decided to ditch Ruby, Owen suddenly felt his world brighten up, and the road ahead was full of sunshine.

He remembered Cecilia, her words echoing in his ears.

A chuckle escaped from Owen.

Because of Ruby's exit, his mood got a whole lot better.

Derek recorded Owen's words and left all pumped up.

Ruby rushed to the Martinez family last night, but the security guards wouldn't let her in. They were worried about disturbing Shane Martinez's rest. Ruby had no choice but to call Owen, but he didn't answer. She then called Olina, but the phone hung up after only a few rings.

Ruby suspected it was Shane who hung up. She had no proof.

Ruby had to wait at the gate. She was exhausted, so she lay down on the ground.

The sun was blindingly bright.

Ruby couldn't fall asleep again. She opened her eyes. She was blinded by the sunlight, squinted her eyes shut, then, after a while, opened them again and sat up.

She found herself still at the entrance of the Martinez family.

Owen hadn't come out to take her in.

Ruby blamed the security guards. They didn't help her notify Owen.


After waking up, she touched her face, then turned on her phone's camera. Looking at her face, she saw that it was still swollen. Her mother had hit her hard. After several hours, her face was still badly swollen.

She wasn't beautiful anymore.
