Forbidden Passion

Chapter 849 Tried to Run

Ruby gave up trying to persuade Nancy. She sat there like a puppet, surrounded by people applying makeup.

Two hours later, they had dressed her in a very revealing, glittering strapless mini dress, making her look like a nightclub hostess.

Ruby sneered. To sell her off, they had completely abandoned their dignity.

After everyone left, Nova walked in slowly and sat down next to Ruby. "Ruby, don't hate Mom and Dad. They are also at their wit's end."

Ruby scoffed.

Seeing her staring at him with mockery, Nova felt a bit uncomfortable. He said, "Don't worry. As long as the Adams family gets through this tough time, we will be your strongest support. Believe me, Edmund won't dare treat you badly."

"Do you believe that yourself?" Ruby mocked. "Nova, you were never good at managing the business. The Adams Group has been in your hands for only three years, and it's already on the brink of collapse. No matter how much money you get, it's just a bottomless pit."

Nova's pride was hurt by her words, and he suddenly became furious. "What do you know? If it weren't for the market regulation, how could I have invested all the funds?"

"That just means you're stupid," Ruby ridiculed, her eyes full of contempt.

Nova raised his hand in anger, and Ruby offered her face, deliberately provoking him. "Go ahead, hit me. Hit me in the face, you coward. You have no ability yourself, so you want to sell me to keep the company afloat. I despise you."

Nova gritted his teeth. "Ruby, don't push me. You'll still need my support in the future, and the Walker Family won't mistreat you because of it."

Ruby spat in Nova's face. "I've had enough of your face. Get out!"

No one had ever dared to spit in Nova's face before. He was furious but didn't want to mess up Ruby's makeup.

He gritted his teeth and swallowed the humiliation. Wiping the spit off his face, he said viciously, "Fine, you're tough. Let's see if you can be this tough in the Walker Family."

With that, he turned and walked out of the bedroom.
