Chapter 54 - 53. Shifting Snake
After confronting the first son, the three moved to Mina’s quarters and Ruby demanded Jasper to tell them everything--all because she heard Daniel’s name come out in this situation.
Cautiously, while trying his hardest to make his participation in the plan as minimal as possible, Jasper told his scary sister everything: how they planned to humiliate her but it didn’t work because she knew Kang Daniel, and how they talked to the three men about drugging Sarah and ’humiliate’ her in another way.
Immediately, Ruby dove into the Circle’s community to check for the circulating rumors. Knowing that people had started to talk about Sarah and Daniel’s relationship made her beyond livid--after all, she had been having a massive crush on Daniel since her childhood. She was so angry that she threw her phone at her brother.
"Are you stupid? Are you an idiot?!" her scream filled the room that all the workers and attendants dared not to come close.
"But, noona--"
"You fucker!"
Unsatisfied, Ruby smacked her brother viciously on the back, berating him with unshed, frustrated tears. Jasper tried to run away by clinging to their mother, and that was when they realized she had been very quiet.
The children paused and looked at each other with furrowed brows. Ruby shook her mother’s arm and whined in protest. "Mother!"
"...yes?"
Mina blinked and slowly returned her mind to her protesting children. It was clear that she hadn’t been listening to them, even though they made such a mess around the couch and made the house staff run away in fright.
"Ugh--what are you thinking about in this situation? Please focus!" Ruby sat back down while crossing her arms, still fuming about the result of her brother’s stupidity.
