“What?!” Everyone is thrown off by the drastic change of the army's decision. Nate and Adriana can't deny it, there is evidence before them. “That's not true, I didn't have anything to do with it!” Adriana clutches her chest as she defends herself. “You guys are ridiculous! Why would I accuse me of such?! I am an honest man from an honest family!” “Please, don't even try to argue. We have all the evidence we need and we are going to take you all away now. This is a serious case and you are all going to spend a very long time being punished for this.” The soldier tells them. Adriana bursts into tears, she doesn't want to go to prison, she has been there before and she hates it so much. The soldiers handcuff them, they are taking them away. Andrew is allowing this to happen because he wants to teach Adriana and Nate a lesson. They have disrespected Ruby and her family too much. That's why he did this. Ruby has a good heart, she seems to be worried, from the look of her face, A
It's been a while since the anonymous partner has called for a meeting through Frederick. Frederick has also been traveling a lot for work, but he doesn't have to bother with the Sanchez empire because it has been running well under the Sanchezs. Ruby has become very close to completing the project, she is very excited to see what everyone thinks of it, but she has not been able to get wind of Mister Frederick to inform him. He has been replying to his emails and even though she has his very private number, she still hasn't been able to get to him. This has frustrated her. She worked so hard on the project and completed it way before it was supposed to be done, but she is feeling dejected. Her grandfather and her extended family might find fault in it and what the hell is she going to do if Mister Frederick Cargo doesn't like it? She has spent days at the site, sitting on the newly finished floor, staring at the chandelier that is dangling from the highest point of the ceiling.
Everyone is shocked, they immediately rush up to their feet to acknowledge the anonymous partner. The screen of the iPad is showing Ruby's face, but the place where the anonymous partner's face is supposed to appear, it's blank. Ruby too can't help but bow. She can feel herself shivering and thank God that she didn't even know that he was watching her. She would have simply crumbled to the ground and she wouldn't have been able to do anything. “Well, done, Miss Ruby. You have done such a great job with the project that was handed to you. And you also did it in a very short time.” She doesn't recognize Andrew's voice, she would have been able to point out his voice in a room full of hundreds of men, but Andrew's voice has been altered with the help of some technology. “Thank you, sir.” Ruby bows. “Thank you for also trusting me. I'm glad that you like my work.” This has got to the height of her career, this is the proudest that she has been she wishes that her parents can be her
Andrew watches his brother in confusion. Saint is standing with his back turned, he is standing very still, trying his hardest to hide his face from Mister Ventura. What a small world! Who would have thought that Mister Ventura is the mystery person that saved Saint from the fire. He is the reason that Saint is alive, but that could also mean either that Mister Ventura is a savior, or he knows a lot about what happened to their parents. Andrew looks from his brother and the back to Mister Ventura. The man is approaching them with a smile on his face. What is Andrew going to do if he recognizes Saint? “My amazing doctor!” Mister Ventura praises Andrew. He shakes his hand warmly and gives him a hug too. That's when Andrew turns around. The tension on his face is gone, he looks at Mister Ventura with a calm smile and waits for Andrew to at least introduce them. “And you brought a friend!” Mister Ventura smiles as he shakes Andrew. “It's so nice to meet you, Mister Ventura. I'm his
The house that Ruby and her parents have been living in for years, Andrew decided to buy it for her some months ago. It was confirmed that it's her house, but she didn't believe it. She thought that it was a prank, so she continued to pay the rent and just never told anyone.Ruby is turning a new age in a few days and since their life's not so hard anymore, she has decided to throw a small party for her family. Nothing too much, since she has been developing a soft side for Adriana, so she is going to invite her to the party, it doesn't matter if she comes or not. She will invite Saint too, but she will text him on the day. She doesn't tell anyone about it, though. She makes the preparation herself and tries her best to distract her family before the day. In the morning, It turns out that she is not as careful as she thinks because she wakes up in the morning and sees Andrew with a cup cake and some bouquet of flowers. Uma is also grinning as they both sing her the happy birthda
Since Eve’s engagement to Frederick was called off, she is very sure that it's because of what she did to Ruby. She had to return to her family and kick start the career she abandoned because she thought that she is going to get married to a very rich man. Luckily, she is a very beautiful lady and with the help of her family, she has been able to be scouted and she is becoming a very popular model. She is meeting with some of her A lister friends and they are to have dinner, but she can't help but cause a scene when she sees that Ruby is having dinner at a few tables away from her. “It's you, isn't it?” Eve scoffs as she folds her hands. “Eating with your family and pretending to be a good person?” Many of them doesn't know who she is. Even Andrew has never met Eve before, so they are all looking at Ruby for an explanation. Ruby chuckles and tries to hide her nervousness, but it's so hard for her. “Hi, Eve, it's such a coincidence that you are here. This is my family…” “Is thi
Everyone turns to look at Andrew in shock. Where will he get such kind of money to do that? The manager almost laugh, because what kind of man would think that he can buy the place and demolish it, just like that? The place is worth millions of dollars, money that Andrew doesn't look like he has. The only person that seems to be gripped by fear is Frederick. He knows the truth about how rich Andrew is. He knows that he can truly purchase the place and destroy it. “Andrew, I don't think that's necessary.” Frederick tries to laugh it off. “Oh, I think it is. When my wife was being embarrassed by that crazy lady, none of them did anything.” Andrew accuses them. “So, yes, this place doesn't deserve to exist.” Now, the manager starts to feel as if this is serious. If the overall boss gets to hear what has happened, he is going to be in much trouble. “Sorry, sir, I'm sorry about the misunderstanding, but the place is not for sale.” The manager says. “It is, if I say it is.” Frederi
All the talking in the crowd ceases with unison. Did Andrew just say that he has bought them a house? Ruby looks at the keys that are in her Shaky fingers and she starts to laugh nervously. “Haha, I get it. It's a joke, it's very funny.” She looks around. Of course there is no way for her to believe that this is real. “Don't be silly, Ruby. You now have a house of your own. There is no way that it's not real. I bought it myself.” Andrew smiles at her. Ruby's face suddenly flushes and she falls with weakness. Andrew grabs her in time, saving her from falling to the ground. Her parents gasp and hold on to each other. Did their useless son-in-law just say that he has bought them a house? “Is this a dream, Thomas?” Doreen sniffs. “We are going to get our own house after all these years of suffering and shame.” Adriana doesn't believe this. She can't believe what's happening, so she scoffs. Since when did Andrew get so much money? Andrew smiles as he looks at all his family members
