The Heiress Nobody Saw Coming

Chapter 323 The Sinclairs Need a New Leader

Even after Charlotte had sent Ivan and Julia off, Ruby was still standing there, looking pale as ever. She only came back to her senses when Zane stood before

her.

"Leave, now," Zane commanded, his patience wearing thin.

"Your mother lied to mine, Ruby. I'll let my mother know about this. Do you really think a nobody like you is worthy of marrying into the Holts?"

It made Zane sick with rage knowing Ruby once bullied Sophia under his name.

Besides, considering how Julia had deceived Luna for so long, cursing Ruby out was barely punishment.

"No!" Ruby shouted instinctively. Then, she begged, "Please, Zane. Please don't tell Mrs. Holt about it for the sake of our past relationship."

"In your dreams," Zane spat. "After you lied to my mother and me, you actually think I'd help you hide it? Ruby, have you no shame?

"This is the final warning-leave now. Goodwill Pharmacy doesn't welcome you, and we aren't going to sell your mother the medicine she needs. Did I make myself clear?"

Seeing how Ruby remained still, Zane went up and grabbed her hand, yanking her out himself.

"I've had enough, Ruby. I have nothing to do with you anymore, so don't go around using my name to deceive people. I also told my friends about this. Don't expect me to be nice if you keep associating yourself with me to cause trouble."

As soon as Zane finished his sentence, he turned around and walked back into Goodwill Pharmacy without any hesitation.

Ruby stood at the pharmacy's entrance, her face as white as a sheet. Goodwill Pharmacy used to be busy, but ever since the Sinclairs came, no customers had come.

Sitting in the car not far away, Julia sent Wendy out to bring Ruby back.

"What are you just standing there for, Ms. Sinclair?"

Although Wendy had apologized to Natalie, her heart was filled with contempt. She was just afraid of Ivan's fury.

"How dare that little bitch humiliate us like this! I'll send someone to teach her a lesson once Mr. Sinclair returns," Wendy said in a low voice.

Disgusted, she spat at the pharmacy's entrance. "Charlotte, that old hag, thinks she's superior just because she's William's wife, but Mr. Sinclair is every bit as capable as William.

"Ms. Sinclair, you don't have to rely on Zane anymore. He's just the second son of the Holts who's always up to no good. You see, he stays in the pharmacy 24/7, and he can't even make it into his family business.

"If you married him in the future, you wouldn't have any actual authority in the Holt family. Madam Sinclair told me just now that she wanted you to approach Zane's older brother, Zachary. In any case, you must at least marry one of the Holt sons." Feeling overwhelmed, Ruby's ears started to buzz. Each word Wendy had said was clear, but the whole thing was just gibberish to Ruby.

"Are you listening, Ms. Sinclair?"
