In the past two days, Ruby Gregory had thought about talking to her parents to see if there was another way to save the Gregorys. But every time she saw the relaxed and joyful expressions on her parents' faces because she and Steve Burton had spent a day and night together, she couldn't bring herself to say anything.
Ruby felt utterly useless, as every time she was only able to make her parents happy through deception.
On Monday morning, as usual, she wore a blue dress, sprayed on a light touch of Chanel No.5 perfume, ate breakfast, and then had the Gregorys' driver take her to Pristine's Enterprises' building.
After the driver left, Ruby didn't enter the company. Instead, she stood by the roadside, sent a text message to her secretary asking for time off, and went to the underground parking garage to get her car and leave.
