So, Ruby Gregory started arguing with Lady Gregory.
That was the most fierce argument she had ever had with Lady Gregory in her memory, just like yesterday afternoon in the hospital, Lady Gregory was so angry that her chest heaved, pointing at her speechlessly for a long time.
Perhaps when a person is suppressed for too long, once they vent, it becomes terrifying. Anyway, when she shouted at her mother, "Why don't you let Steve Burton be your son instead, what do you want me as your daughter for, I don't want to be your daughter at all!", Lady Gregory angrily stretched out her hand and slapped her face.
She had been scolded many times since she was a child, but this was the first time she had been beaten.
That slap really beat out all the rebellion and defiance inside her, she didn't even bring her phone, and in a fit of rage, she ran straight out of the Gregorys' house and back to school.
