Steal my heart by Savannah Kade

Chapter 72 She Was So Cold-hearted Ruby was rendered speechless. She felt a bit embarrassed, but she couldn't find a word to retort Grace.

Grace added, "I owe you nothing from the very beginning. Do you think that I was eager to intercede with Big Boss for you? Ruby used to regard Grace as a coward and stupid woman in the past. But in the end, it turned out that the fool was not stupid at all, and the coward woman was no way week-kneed.

Ruby was picking on Grace at the beginning; later, because of Franklin, she becmore jealous of Grace. If it was Gloria or any other outstand woman who was at Grace's position, Ruby wouldn't have been jealous of Grace; instead, she would be envious of her.

There was a fine line between envy and jealousy.

She was better than Grace in any aspect, but why Franklin couldn't see her and could only behold Grace? Grace was just a bitch who could do anything to earn money, while she herself had been taken heed of her integrity, but why Franklin could only behold Grace? It whom Franklin was into was not Grace, but another outstanding woman... Then the result would be totally different.

It was Grace's sin to be mediocre and poor.

But now it turned out that the fool in her eyes was not dopey at all. It turned out that Grace knew about everything and understood everything.

Ruby stayed silent for a while before saying, "But you're still hypocritical. You were unwilling to do it, but why did you do it at last? You just wanted to show your virtuous self in front of Big Boss, right? Grace didn't plan to explain it. There was no need to explain to an unrelated person in terms of many matters, "Go, leave. Don't bother me." As she was specking, she closed the door in Ruby's presence. "Wait a moment!" Ruby, who was standing outside the door, vigorously pushed open the door. Grace knitted her eyebrows... When will this cto an end? "I... I'm convinced. I believe that you've intercede with Big Boss for me." Ruby glared at Grace, "Now that you could beg Big Boss for sparing my life, why couldn't you beg Big Boss for letting pass it?" Ruby was questioning Grace: Now that you could appeal Big Boss for sparing my life, why didn't you appeal for more, like totally letting go of me? Grace hadn't expected that Ruby would ask this question. She muted for a long while before saying, "I don't care if you die of sickness, or car accident, or die for angering Big Boss again. I don't care about it a all. But this time...

This matter was related to me, and I don't want to owe any other a life. No matter who had intrigued me, even if she was a stranger, as long as her life-and-death problem was related to me, direct or indirect, I would cto intercede with Big Boss., for I don't want to bear the burden of another death in the rest of my miserable life." At least she could afford the price named by that man. But if she owed a life, she would have no way to pay it back in the rest of her life.

"Ruby, in other words, if you simply offended Big Boss that day and the matter had nothing to do with me, I promise that I wouldn't have intercede with Big Boss for you. Although I didn't need to pay anything for the pleading, I wouldn't have put in any good words for you." It seemed that Grace was gradually convinced by herself as she was making this excuse.

However, there was arrogance and dignity deep in her heart, although Grace herself didn't discern it... Who was Ruby? Ruby was just nobody! Ruby was not Leona, so she was not eligible for making Grace feel beholden.

Yeah, there was such kind of dignity deep in Grace's heart... Although the three years of imprisonment had deprived her of her arrogance and dignity and therefore she beccoward, miserable and mediocre, but those qualities that was craved in her spirits could not be deprived.

Although she had forgotten her past self with youthful indiscretion and confidence, squalities were still hided deep in her heart, her blood, her flesh, and even her bones.

Ruby was pushed out of the door by Grace. When the door was closed, Ruby was still lost in her thoughts. Her ears were tingling... What shocked her most were not Grace's words which showed that she had seen through everything, it was... the extrindifference embodied in her last sentence! Grace said that if her life- and death problem had nothing to do with her, then, even if she didn't need to pay anything for the pleading, she wouldn't have put in any good words for her! What an indifferent person... How could a person be so cold-hearted? Yeah, she was so cold-hearted. How cthat a lowly and submissive be so indifferent in the face of the life- and-death problem? All of a sudden, the scenes about Grace were displayed in her mind like a movie. At this moment, Ruby seemed to understand why Grace could do things that others would never do, like crawling on the ground like a dog regardless of her dignity... It was because that this woman didn't care about herself! But this was only one of the reasons. What Ruby didn't know was that... Grace couldn't bear to care about others any more, including herself.

What she wanted to do in the rest of her life was just to realize of the dream of that girl.

When Ruby left the dormitory, she was still in a trance. She was still holding hatred towards Grace... Because of Grace James, Mr. Cordon even did such a cruel thing to her.

Whether Grace was pathetic or not, at least, it was a 'secret' known to all staff in Royal Club that Grace could do every lowly thing to get the money.

Mr. Cordon... He must have been deceived by Grace.

Ruby firmly believed in this thought and swore that she would reveal Grace's lowly nature to Mr. Cordon.

All was quiet at dead of night.

A dark figure stood at the gloomy stairwell.

Ruby was started.

"How... How comes that you're still here."

Cayne folded his arms in front of his chest, leaned against the wall and tilted his head to look at Ruby m look smiling accidently dropped my phone in the pocket of your coat." As he was speaking, he reached out his hand towards the pocket of Ruby's coat. "Yuck! What are you doing? Are you robing? I will call the..." The word 'police' was swallowed. Petrified, Ruby looked at the man as he took out a phone from her pocket with his slender fingers. And that was not her phone.

"You... When... How could it be?" "I told you that I accidently dropped my phone in your pocket."

He was lying! Ruby planned to retort, but she had a hunch that his man was somebody she couldn't afford to offend. She had angered Big Boss, and now she felt nervous in the face of this handsand rich man.

Of course, his phone wouldn't have been accidently dropped into the pocket of Ruby's coat. Cayne walked past her when he went downstairs, with his good memory, he recognized that this woman was the one that had appeared in Grace's ward that day. So he 'casually' turned on the voice recorder and 'accidently' dropped his phone into Ruby's pocket. "Oh, by the way... Thank you for provingfirst-hand information." So that he could have a clear understanding of his prey.

The bright screen was staying at the interface of the voice recording.[] X
