Early the next morning, Ruby showed up at the Wilson's home, looking for Kate.
Mr. Charles knew the Bentlys were not welcome because of past issues with the Wilson family and initially refused to let Ruby inside.
However, Ruby was persistent, explaining that Kate had been at the event the previous night but hadn't returned home, which is why she was there.
Mr. Charles was skeptical and was about to have Ruby escorted out of the property.
Just then, Kate appeared from the back of the house.
She had faint red marks on her body and claimed she had been with Daniel all night.
Mr. Charles thought this claim was too much. He didn't want these accusations to tarnish his young master's reputation, so he reluctantly let them in and quickly called Daniel to inform him of the situation.
Ruby and Kate were led into the living room, and the servants stayed away from them.
