Chapter 87

On the very first day Abby saw Ruby on that riverbank, where she was having lunch with Micah, she felt this weird vibe from her.

She actively tried to imply that she knew Micah more than any platonic friend from one’s childhood should.

Even though the King didn’t give Abby any chance to feel insecure, the woman still tried to implant ideas about herself and Micah in her mind during that so–called lunch date she took her to, where she made her friends talk nonsense.

At first, Abby also thought Ruby was better than her.

But then, when she thought back to all those

for Micah.

That day, she still tried to maintain a proper lady behavior, as she let those three women gaslight her, but today, she somehow decided not to act anymore as she came to confront her face to face.

On second thought, Ruby struggled that day to hide her true intentions toward Micah as well, let alone now, when the entire palace was against Abby being together with her mate.

So here she was, trying to intimidate her with her proper education and so–called insider information.

Abby only tolerated her because she was Micah’s friend, be it that day or today, she had only given her the time of the day for Micah’s sake.

Even wanting to build her social circle, Abby only tried it for Micah.

But, Ruby seemed to have gotten the wrong memo that she cared about what Ruby or others thought

about her.

Being ostracized by people was nothing new to Abby. It was only Micah that she cared about.

And her mate’s love was something she wouldn’t sacrifice for anyone.

So when Ruby went on and on about how Micah wouldn’t hesitate to discard her once he realized how she would only bring himself troubles, Abby couldn’t tolerate it anymore and chose to shut her up in the most effective way possible.

“Can you see this? Do I need any more reasons not to doubt his ‘intentions‘ concerning me?”

Abby asked Ruby as she pointed at Micah’s mark on her neck.

“If he had any doubts about our bond, he wouldn’t have taken a step this big. Don’t you think so?” She continued when Ruby just gritted her teeth without saying anything.
