Faux Vows, True Desires

As he spoke, he forcefully pulled Cecilia towards him. He bent down, hoisted her up, and headed towards his car.

He had initially planned on taking Lucinda's advice, giving Cecilia some time to cool off, but now he figured he needed to strike while the iron was hot, or else when would they have a kid? What could Lucinda say? She was speechless.

She and the shop assistant could only watch helplessly as Cecilia was carted off by Owen.

Soon, Owen's convoy was gone.

Ruby didn't realize Owen had left until the spicy taste in her mouth subsided.

She immediately burst into tears. "Owen, you're so heartless. You've already forgiven me countless times. Why can't you forgive me one more time? As long as you forgive me this time, I promise to follow you faithfully from now on."

"People's patience has its limit. Ruby, you brought this on yourself."

Lucinda didn't have a shred of sympathy for her opponent.

Seeing her husband parked the car, she didn't head over. Noticing Ruby, Stefan quickly came over, worried that Ruby might pose a threat to his lover.

Upon arrival, he immediately shielded Lucinda, and said to Ruby coldly, "What are you doing here? Stop your crying. Don't bother Lucinda with your tears. If you want to cry, cry at home!"

With tears streaming down her face, Ruby looked at Stefan, "Stefan. I'm sorry, I know I was wrong, can you forgive me?"

She quickly wiped her tears and said to Lucinda, "Lucinda, I came here to apologize to you. I'm publicly apologizing to you. I filmed that video without your knowledge. I thought you were betraying Stefan, so I hired some online trolls to smear your name. That was my fault. Lucinda, I'm sorry. I'm so sorry!"

Ruby bowed deeply in apology.

Her mother had been advising her for two days to publicly apologize to Lucinda, and then ask Lucinda to plead with Stefan for her. As long as Stefan didn't press charges, she wouldn't have to go to jail. Otherwise, if sued and found guilty, she would have to serve time. Even just a year or two in prison would be enough to drive her insane.
