Raynold was silent for a while, but Ruth could see the wheels turning in his head. He was trying to figure out something.
And then he was ready.
"Ruth, I have heard from Ida about your past and what troubles you have faced since you have stepped inside this manor. You have done some commendable things to reach where you are today. And it is definitely not ONLY because of Edwin's love."
Ruth maintained a straight face as she didn't understand where this conversation was leading.
"I am in no position to judge you or question your choices. Because I would have done the same if I was in your shoes. So you have my appreciation for that.
One thing I have also noticed about you is. You are quite tolerant toward Lord Augustus, but you hold the same hate toward Lady Theodora as mine is toward Lord Augustus."
Ruth definitely had underestimated Alpha Raynold. He was not only elder than Edwin but also more aware of his surroundings than him.
