Chapter 87 Dependency

Simon quickly arranged for Ruth and Holly’s discharge from the hospital.

After all, this private hospital belonged to the Davison Group, and staying there made them feel constantly watched. Furthermore, what would happen if Kate interfered with Ruth’s recuperation, causing permanent harm to Ruth’s hand?

They couldn’t take that risk.

Watching Simon lead Ruth and Holly out of the hospital, Kate leisurely sipped her lemonade, a cold smile playing on her lips.

She observed that the couple was so affectionate with each other. It was obvious they had been together for a long time. Simon’s ability to be so intimate with Ruth while pretending to be deeply in love with Kate was impressive.

Why didn’t Simon pursue an acting career? With his skills, he could win an award for being the

best actor.

George stood behind Kate; the butler couldn’t help but speak up as he watched them leave. “Ma’am, are we just going to let them go?”

Kate chuckled softly and said slowly, “Of course not; the real show is yet to come. Ruth’s hand can’t be ruined so soon. If it were, it would be too simple for her.”

She planned to elevate Ruth and Simon to a high position and then ruthlessly knock them down.

She wanted them to experience the fall from grace, from being on top to being in the dirt.

George shivered slightly at the mocking smile on Kate’s face.
