The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 246 Ruby Makes a Scene at Goodwill Pharmacy

Marcus took the slip to the front desk at Goodwill Pharmacy. He handed the paper to the clerk, paid, and received a receipt in return.

He was just about to return to the courtyard with the receipt in his hand when a shrill voice sounded, "Zane Holt, you come out right this second! Do you really think you can just break up with me like that? What did I do wrong? Why are you breaking up with me for no reason?"

Marcus stopped and turned to the yelling woman who had just walked in. It was Ruby Sinclair-the illegitimate daughter of the Sinclair family.

Ruby scanned the pharmacy as she shouted, and she soon saw Marcus standing not too far away.

Dressed in a well-tailored suit, Marcus stood tall and confident, a picture of elegance. His striking features and cold, dark eyes carried a powerful sense of authority when he turned his gaze to her.

Ruby took a step backward instinctively. She knew who Marcus was he was that bitch Sophia's friend.

There was a rumor that Marcus did not like women. Not even his fiancée, Emma, could get close to him, but Sophia had managed to befriend him for some unfathomable reason.

If it weren't for Marcus' frequent visits to the Sinclair residence to protect Sophia openly, Ruby and Julia would've gotten rid of her by now.

There was no way she would still be alive and well today.

Sophia hadn't returned home for the past few days, and she had been ignoring all calls. If she weren't dating Sky right now, whose family was powerful enough for the Sinclairs to fear, Ruby would've used this as an excuse to make Sophia suffer.

"Ruby, what are you doing here?" Zane ran out from the courtyard. He looked impatient when he saw Ruby. "You can't make a scene here at the pharmacy. I've broken up with you. We don't serve people like you here. Get out!"

"Why should I?" Ruby turned her gaze away from Marcus and grabbed Zane's hand. "You can't break up with me. I didn't agree with it. I'm still your girlfriend!"

"I don't need your fucking permission to break up with you." Zane pried her hand off and dragged her toward the door.

Goodwill Pharmacy was a place of business. He couldn't let Ruby disrupt things, especially with Natalie there. Even though he didn't know what happened between Ruby and Natalie, there was one thing he was sure of Natalie did not like Ruby.

And if Natalie did not like Ruby, then he didn't like her either.
