It doesn't seem like a pleasant surprise... Ruby Gregory felt a hint of trepidation deep in her heart, she somewhat didn't want to continue reading, but she had to: "By the time you get this letter, I will have already left Ciawell."
Ruby Gregory's face instantly lost all color, and her fingertips, holding the thin sheet of paper, began to tremble slightly.
"Ruby, I know you must be angry that I left you just a letter and disappeared without saying goodbye."
"However, before you get angry, I want to tell you some good news, that is, Howard and I got divorced."
"I'm finally free, which is a very fortunate thing to celebrate, and with your wedding happening today, it truly is a double celebration for us sisters!"
Even though the words Madeleine wrote on the paper seemed light-hearted, Ruby clearly envisioned Madeleine's tear-stained, sorrowful, and desperate face.
Howard was her life, yet she just let go; how much must she be suffering now?
