Forbidden Passion

Chapter 850 Donovan Came to Save Her

Ruby couldn't dodge in time and was slapped to the ground by Nancy. Her skirt was very short, and when she fell, it rode up, exposing her legs.

Edmund's eyes were glued to the sight.

Ruby's beautiful, firm long legs made his adrenaline surge wildly. Even though her makeup was smeared, he was still captivated.

He stood up and walked towards Ruby, grabbing Nancy's arm, "Mrs. Adams, how can you be so rough with Ruby? Ruby, let me help you up."

Edmund's stare made Ruby feel nauseous. Ignoring his outstretched hand, she got up from the ground on her own.

Seeing this, Nancy cursed, "Ungrateful bitch. Edmund, you sit down. I'll have her wash her face and redo her makeup."

"No need," Edmund said, his eyes fixed on Ruby with a burning gaze. "This slightly messy look is very trendy now, quite charming."

Ruby felt a wave of disgust, especially seeing Edmund's lecherous gaze. She really wanted to gouge his eyes out.

"What are you looking at?"

Hearing her tone, Nancy raised her hand to hit her again, but Edmund stopped her, "Evelyn, don't be impulsive. If you hurt Ruby, I would be heartbroken."

Nancy said fiercely, "You can't spoil her. The more you spoil her, the more outrageous she becomes."

"Mrs.Adams, let's calm down. We don't want to scare Ruby," Edmund said, his face jiggling with each word. His suit was so tight it looked like it might burst at any moment, making him appear quite unattractive. "Why don't you sit down? I'll handle this."

Seeing that Edmund seemed pleased with Ruby, Nancy finally relaxed. She said with a hint of resentment, "If it weren't for Edmund protecting you, I'd give you a piece of my mind."

Ruby felt a deep chill in her heart, her gaze sweeping over Charles and Nova, who were watching from the sidelines. She was very disappointed with this family's true colors. For money, they were willing to sell her to a man like Edmund. How could they live with themselves?
