Ruby squeezed out a bitter smile. “Earlier, haven’t you blocked my phone number and deleted my

social media accounts? Besides, you’ve been avoiding me.”

Kevan tightened his grip on her shoulder and said in an apologetic tone, “I’m sorry. I didn’t expect

things would tum out like this!”

“You don’t have to blame yourself. It was my own choice, so I should bear the consequences,” Ruby

said graciously.

u plan to do?”

Kevan continued, “What do you

“What else can I do?” Ruby’s eyes were filled with sadness. “I have to pretend as il everything is alright

and continue living with Cody.”

“You can lile for divorce.” Kevan suggested.

“Divorce?” Ruby laughed mockingly. “Don’t you know how powerful the Rogers family is? If I ruin your

family’s reputation by divorcing Cody, they will find other ways to destroy me!

“I will help you,” Kevan promised.

“After get divorced, what then?” Ruby asked. “As a divorced woman who would dare to marry me?”

As she spoke, her eyes stared directly at Kevan, shimmering with hope.

Kevan understood her intentions clearly and knew what was the answer she wanted to hear.

“I am already married.” he said.

“But you dor’I love her, do you? Ruby probed further.

“I have to fulfil. my responsibility in this mamlage,” Kevan insisted.

The light in Ruby’s eyes dimmed down.

“I understand.” She turned away and looked out the car window. “Let’s go to the supermarket. They will

start suspecting us if we return any later.”

After they bought groceries from the supermarket Kevan parked the car, but Ruby showed no signs of

getting out of the vehicle.

“What’s wrong?”

Ruby told him after much hesitation, I cant cook –

Previously, she had announced that she would cook dinner for everyone.

Kevan sighed he be ssly. I do it.”

When she heard this, Ruby smiled in rellel. “Kevan, you’re being so sweet to me!”

Avoiding her earest gaze, Kevan quickly got out of the car.

Ruby’s expression darkened as she grudgingly unbuckled her seatbelt

“Kevan and Ruby are back!” Edmund heard the roar of the car engine outside and approached the

window.

Larissa was distracted by Edmund and lost the opportunity to play her cards that round. Cursing

Inwardly, she blamed Kevan for her loss.

Violet instructed Edmund immediately. “Go and bring Kevan up here!”

Edmund went downstairs to carry out her orders. Once again, he came back empty-handed.

“Kevan sald he’s busy and asked Larissa to keep playing. He will reimburse her for the loss when they

return home,” Edmund reported.

Violet became even more displeased. “He’s on holiday. What could he be busy will?”

“Well Edmund hesitated before continuing, it seems like he is going to help Ruby out in the kitchen. He

mentioned that Ruby alone. wouldn’t be able to handle cooking for so many people. He said that she

would exhaust hersell from all the cooking!”

In a rage. Violet discarded her cards on the table. “Is there no household staff around to help Ruby?

How is it his responsibility to help out in the kitchen?

Her outburst startled everyone at the table.

Maria rolled her eyes and said sarcastically. “Violet, it sounds like you’re blaming us indirectly! Do you

mean to say that doing household chores is beneath Kevan? He’s just helping her out with the cooking!

There’s no reason to overreact!”

Nancy chimed in, “It’s definitely too much for Ruby alone to prepare dinner for everyone in the family!

Since Kevan’s not doing anything either, wouldn’t it be good for him to help out in the kitchen?”

Larissa stood up and said with finality, “Edmund will play this round. I go downstairs and help Ruby in

the kitchen.”
