Faux Vows, True Desires

Worried about being spotted by Stefan, she lowered her head, making herself appear really sincere and filled with remorse. "Stefan, Lucinda, Ruby knows she messed up big time, and you guys are so generous. Could you forgive her just this once?" Megan pleaded on behalf of her daughter in a gentle tone.

She had someone present the gifts and said, "Lucinda, Ruby is sincerely apologizing to you. We hope you can accept these gifts."

Seeing Stefan's icy expression and Lucinda's silence, Megan quickly added, "Stefan, Ruby did mess up, but once she's apologized to you guys. I'll accompany her to turn herself in. I promise we won't bother you guys ever again."

She apologized and voluntarily offered to turn herself in to avoid Stefan taking control of the situation, which would be very unfavorable for Ruby.

"Once Ruby is out, I'll take her abroad, and we'll never return to Pinehurst."

Megan knew if she didn't make these promises, Stefan wouldn't stop, and her daughter's career would be ruined.

Although it was almost ruined now, there was still a glimmer of hope.

As long as they left Pinehurst, kept their distance from Stefan and Lucinda, and moved to a different city, it was possible for her daughter to make a fresh start with her abilities. Today's humiliation, if she could rise one day and retaliate, it wouldn't be too late.

Ruby lifted her head to look at Lucinda, and she said, "Lucinda, what my mom said was also my decision. Rest assured, from now on, I won't disturb you and Stefan."

She laughed at herself, "Stefan was never mine. I was too full of myself. Now, I've got nothing, and it's all my own doing. Lucinda, can you forgive me?"

The media recorded the entire process.

Lucinda was silent for a while, then she said, "I accept your apology. But I don't want these gifts, you take them back. As for turning yourself in, if you say it but don't do it, I don't mind personally sending you in. Through Ruby's incident, she could also tell the world that spreading rumors was not without consequences, and she can't just walk away scot-free. It depended on whether others would sue her.

As long as there's enough evidence if one's reputation was infringed, they would definitely win a lawsuit.

Ruby bit her lower lip and glanced at Stefan again. Seeing his icy expression, she felt heartbroken. After all, he was the man she deeply loved.

He never showed her any pity.

He was not ungentlemanly, and it's just that his gentleness was only for Lucinda.
