To the Love of My Life

Ruby Gregory chuckled, she was not stupid, it was just that Maya Mitchell was good at hiding. She didn’t think like Olivia Foster, bold and direct. Deep down, Ruby Gregory had always thought of Maya as a good person, so she didn’t pay much attention to Maya’s past actions. But thinking about it now, Ruby quickly understood everything.

“Maya Mitchell, when you quit Pristine’s Enterprises and then attended its monthly parties, and that time you took a hit for me, was that all premeditated?”

At that time, she did find it strange that Maya would rush to save her in a life-threatening situation. Yet, Maya, with blood streaming from her head, made no requests and remained gentle and friendly towards her. This made Ruby believe that she might be being overly suspicious, and she even felt guilty for doubting Maya.

But thinking about it now…

With a slight smile, Ruby continued: “Maya Mitchell, I have to admit, you played that part brilliantly. You gambled with your own life, seemingly wanting to get closer to me, but in reality, it was all for Steve Burton, wasn’t it?”

“You really do spare no effort…”

Just as Ruby Gregory was about to finish speaking sarcastically, Maya suddenly seemed to make up her mind. She stared at Ruby with an icy look in her eyes, her tone much fiercer than Ruby had ever heard before: “Ruby Gregory, since you already know, why bother asking me?”

“Slap—” Immediately after Maya’s retort, Ruby raised her hand and delivered a heavy slap to Maya’s face.

Maya’s expression momentarily froze from the slap. When she turned back, she saw Ruby’s expression had become serious and cold.

Before Maya could even open her mouth to speak, Ruby reached out and forcefully slapped the other side of her face.

Afterward, Ruby grabbed Maya’s chin, looking at her with cold eyes: “Maya Mitchell, I think you misunderstood, I’m not here to ask questions, I’m here to settle a score.”

“Those two slaps just now, the first was for being blind and paying for your tuition. I always thought the story of the farmer and the snake was just a text, but now I realize that there are indeed people as venomous as snakes in this world!”

“The second slap was purely for venting. If you can say such disgusting words, I can certainly slap you!”

“Maya Mitchell, don’t you hate me? Today, I’ll make you detest me completely!”

“In your eyes, I’m nothing, right? However, there are some things you have to admit. No matter what, my family’s Gregory’s Enterprises is better than your pedigree. No matter how bad I, Ruby Gregory, am, I look better than you, Maya Mitchell!”

“In fact, I know that your hatred for me is only because what you want, envy, and strive for, you can’t have. But I happen to have all of it!”

“What, not satisfied?” Ruby laughed: “Don’t stare at me so fiercely, do you think I’m wrong?”
