My Substitute CEO Bride (Nash Calcraft)

Chapter 2209 Ruin did not try to take over Zirconia's body. He was merely curious to see how far this woman could go. Now that her mortal enemy had arrived, Ruin was eager to find out who would emerge victorious when this millennia-old conflict reignited.

Ruin slowly approached the weakened woman, who asked in a faint voice, "What's the matter? Aren't you going to try your luck? You might be able to stop me now. You once called me a madwoman, didn't you? I think you were right. I've never regretted any of the mistakes I made, and I still don't."

Ruin replied, "Provoking me won't work. I'm merely a witness to your fate."

Zirconia chuckled at this, amused. "Haha, you're still the same after all these centuries."

Ruin stood silently as Zirconia pulled out a black, heart-like, pulsating orb from within her body.

"This divine orb has been beating within me for so many years. Aren't you tempted to take it back?" she asked.

Ruin shook his head. "You said you wouldn't regret any of your mistakes. How could I be any different? Even resurrecting you... From the moment you came back to life, I already knew your fate. That's why I must witness all of this with my own eyes."

Zirconia then returned the divine orb to her body. She threw her head back and laughed. "Haha, I'm starting to like you more and more. You're just as much of a lunatic as I am."
