Ruby couldn't even remember all that happened, let alone prepare for it. All Ruby remembered were colorful lights, loud music, and lots of people.

"Did you enjoy it so much that you forgot, or do you think it's so ordinary that you're confused about which man I'm talking about?" Ed sneered cynically.

Ruby, still busy piecing together her memories and trying to come up with an excuse, had to lower her head again. She didn't know what to say or how to explain, because, from any angle, she was at fault. Maybe she should have been more firm in refusing when Lori invited her.

However, she had to become Liz. It would have been very suspicious if she suddenly rejected that lifestyle.

"I remember," Ruby half-lied, because that choice was better than the explanations Ed had mentioned earlier. The decision to not know which man it was made her look very much like a slut.

"I didn't mean to be like this. I was just bored after being at home for so long. So... I followed Lori," Ruby said.

    “Why not? Didn’t you read my message?” Ed met Otiz outside the room, sounding dissatisfied because Otiz had not followed his orders.“Senor Reyes contacted me about that,” Otiz replied, gesturing to his two men to stay. They would guard the room Ed had just left. It couldn't be left unguarded.“What do you mean? What does that idiot have to do with it?” Ed didn’t understand why Mayte’s father had to get involved.“His father knows Senor Reyes and asked for his help—to save his son’s life,” Otiz explained.“Oh.” Ed was no longer surprised. Carlos is associated with Liz—part of his world. Most likely, he was a wealthy and influential person. He approached Marco Reyes to ask for help to save his son.“Where?” asked Ed. He knew Marco would definitely ask to meet.“I haven't made an appointment.” Otiz wouldn’t make an appointment without Ed’s approval.“Now. I won't delay his death.” Ed would meet Marco, but he didn’t want to change his decision. He would meet Marco out of courtesy. Even t

    "That kid is just foolish. Please, he's my only child." Failing to reason, Miguel merely pleaded for mercy."My wife is also one of a kind, and your son chose to flirt with her instead of the other women there," Ed retorted, taking another sip of his drink. He glanced at Marco, who was slowly straightening up."But... but... I beg you to forgive him. It was just foolishness, an uncontrollable desire." Miguel continued to beg."I implore you not to make this a bigger issue. I understand your anger, but I don't think this needs to be resolved like this. I'm sure they were just caught up in the moment and situation; they didn't mean anything serious. The influence of alcohol and drugs can turn anything into chaos. People in that setting are prone to making mistakes."Marco finally joined in persuading, but in the wrong way. He spoke clearly and politely, but he had just accused Liz of accepting Carlos's advances—it wasn’t just Carlos's fault if they appeared to be about to kiss. Liz was a

    "Forgive me!"Lori rushed in and hugged Ruby as soon as she entered the hospital room. Ruby, who was standing by the bed, could freely return the embrace now that the IV lines were no longer a hindrance. As Lori cried, Ruby hugged and patted her on the back."I had no idea Carlos would be so stupid as to give you that drug. I warned him repeatedly to be careful and not mess up when he was with you. He must be deaf, or maybe just brainless."Lori began to rant, and Ruby listened with a smile. She was no longer angry with Lori.Though Lori’s insistence had caused Ruby a lot of trouble, it was true that Lori just wanted them to have fun together. She meant no harm and was simply following what seemed appropriate for the lifestyle of rich kids. Ruby just wasn't used to it.And seeing Lori's remorse now, Ruby couldn't possibly hate her. Lori's kindness was rare; Ruby hadn't encountered it often since taking on the role of Liz. Especially after understanding what Lori had gone through—conce

    “I was just too lazy to change it,” Ruby muttered softly, reaching for the phone that Lori held with a look of disgust. Owning that phone seemed to be tantamount to shame among the rich.Lori kept pressing, shaking her head in disbelief, but that reason was more acceptable—it didn't make it seem like Ruby had to be frugal."I'm taking it back. Eduardo was right. This is perfect for you. He’s smart for matching it to your needs. It’s sweet.” Lori withdrew her hasty accusation and opened the phone box for Liz.“Whoa… Custom-made.” Lori’s eyes widened when she saw the highly polished back of the phone, unlike any typical model.Ruby accepted it and gazed in awe. It was, of course, the best and most luxurious phone she had ever owned. The phone was not large and could even be folded into a smaller size. It was the latest model, usually only seen by Ruby on buses or TV.“What kind of leaf is this?” Ruby asked, pointing to the uniquely patterned custom case. As Lori mentioned earlier, the p

    Ruby didn't move at all, knowing that the sound of heavy footsteps belonged to Ed, which was surprising. Ed wasn’t supposed to be home—he was supposed to be in Guadalajara until next week or whenever, but certainly not now.Ruby, of course, was even more afraid to open her eyes, so she kept them closed, listening as the closet door opened and other noises followed.“I don’t need to look to know you’re still awake.”Ruby squeaked, for sure. Startled—and embarrassed. She opened her eyes and had to search before finally finding Ed sitting in one of the chairs near the terrace.He hadn’t turned on the lights but had slightly opened the curtains. letting some light in. The light is not very bright, but it is enough to dimly illuminate the room.Ruby sat with her head down. Her embarrassment persisted, partially due to her inability to formulate a response. She glanced and saw that Ed was also observing.“Do you like it?” Ed inquired, pointing to the phone still in Ruby's hands.“Oh, yes. I

    “Hmm?” Ruby shifted her eyes from the screen and looked back at Ed.“What?” Ed asked in return.“You said something.” Ruby heard something but wasn't sure what.“Really? I didn't say anything.” Ed shook his head in denial. Ed just realized he had said it out loud. He had intended to keep it in his head.“Oh, okay.” Ruby was hesitant, convinced she heard something. But she couldn't insist if Ed himself didn't feel he had said anything.“You’re twenty-four,” Ed said suddenly.Ruby turned again. “Age? Yes. I'm twenty-four.” Ruby didn't need to think while answering, given that she and Liz were of the same age. Ed should know that too.“You don’t look twenty-four.”Ruby finally put down her phone. It was her turn to feel a bit offended. She didn’t understand why Ed suddenly brought up age, but the statement ‘not like 24’ stung. Her face shouldn’t look that old. Discussing age was a sensitive topic for women.“Then how old do I look?” Ruby tried not to sound snappy, but she still sounded c

    Words are like magic, creating wonders. Ruby felt her body glide into the cool water, floating gently, enveloped in quiet comfort. Brief, concise, but not simple.Ruby knew she hadn’t misheard, as she saw those green eyes looking at her. They didn’t blink or show hesitation. Those eyes were gentle.“For everything that happened—for what hurt you. I’m sorry, and I won’t do it again.”Warmth gathered in Ruby’s face, piling up into tears.Ruby hadn’t known she needed it. She would never have dared to ask for or demand an apology from Ed. Ruby had already prepared to adjust, even before Ed apologized.“You shouldn’t have to endure all that harshness or pain. I acknowledge it all as foolishness.”Ed extended a hand, noticing the shimmer of Ruby's tears rolling down her cheeks. But he didn’t wipe them away immediately. Before touching, Ed waited to see if Ruby would flin

    Time had never moved so slowly for Ruby. Each second seemed to pass more leisurely, giving her longer moments to absorb her surroundings.Her eyes were still darkened, and Ed's hand was still covering them, but Ruby didn't feel blind at all. Her other senses took over, providing intense stimulation and heightening every tickle in her stomach, as well as every nerve ending throughout her body.When he felt her pull away, Ed cupped and held Ruby's head. He knew she wasn’t avoiding him. Ruby wasn't scared, just weak.Ed wouldn't let her pull away. However, he couldn't resist the allure of her delicate lips. Ed wanted every inch of her, and every response from Ruby was like a fire igniting his body. Ruby didn’t reciprocate properly, but instinctively, her lips parted, inviting Ed to explore.Ed kissed those soft, innocent lips, brushing and playfully biting the corners. He inhaled deeply, taking in the warm pheromones she exuded.Ruby felt

    “Such chaos,” Liz lamented as she watched the crowd of rowdy children, who had become the main guests at her wedding.“Yeah, I didn’t expect it to get this wild either.” Ruby sat beside her, watching AJ hand out chocolate-covered strawberries to the other kids.He wasn’t alone—Claud, Val's second child, was helping him. They eventually grew close, even though their conversations were sometimes limited because Claud was more fluent in Italian than English. Still, they got along well enough.“How did it all start?” Ed frowned.“I don’t know.” Ruby was also unsure.“Maybe I shouldn’t have agreed when AJ asked.” Liz deeply regretted it.Somehow, AJ had convinced Liz to provide a chocolate fountain for her wedding, and it had become the source of chaos. The younger children were enjoying it, but soon chocolate stains appeared on the white tablecloths, as wel

    "Do I have to? I already checked that document yesterday. Can’t you do it instead?" When Ed saw another email from Otiz, he complained.It was a financial report. Since Matteo had spread his investments in every direction—across more or less thirty companies—the financial reports Otiz received came from all directions, across different types of businesses. Ed hadn't anticipated this.Being an investor wasn’t as straightforward as it seemed. He still had to work.“You’re the one who has to check it. I’m just the middleman,” Otiz firmly refused.He could refuse because the request was made over the phone. Perhaps if they were face-to-face, Otiz would be more compliant. He was no longer blindly following Ed's orders, carefully sorting out what should and should not be done. He was only responsible for delivering financial reports, not reviewing them.Ed grumbled. He was quite used to reviewing company pa

    "‘What do you want to show me?’ As she approached Ed, Ruby inquired.She left AJ's side; he was busy reading a story to his two younger siblings. Elena and Elisa sat quietly, either really listening or getting sleepy. It was already time for their afternoon nap."Read this," Ed shifted, making room for Ruby to sit beside him, and handed her a phone displaying an article in Spanish. Less than two hours had passed since the publication of this hot news story.Ruby didn’t pay attention to that, though, because she was immediately stunned by the headline.‘DEA ARRESTS MAJOR MEXICAN CARTEL AND EXPOSES BILLION-DOLLAR BUSINESS NETWORK’"What... you...?" Ruby turned pale and panicked, of course."Read it to the end," Ed said, pointing to the rest of the text that she had not yet seen.Ruby read quickly and frowned. There was no mention of Ed or Rosas anywhere. Only Reyes. Marco Reyes. He was the story's

    Two black vans speed down a deserted road. It was already nighttime, and they were the only ones there. The end of the road was in sight—a black iron gate.“Ram it!”A shout rang out, and the vans didn’t slow down. The passengers inside, all dressed in black, held on tight as a deafening crash echoed.The gate fell, bent, but opened. The two vans barged through and stopped right in front of the brightly lit house.“Get in and kill everyone!”Another shout, and the people inside the vans scrambled out, storming into the beachside house. Some were carrying firearms; others were wielding clubs.However, as they entered, everyone froze. No one came to greet them. The house was supposed to be full of guards, which was why they had come in numbers—ready for a confrontation.In reality, what greeted them was silence. Not a single person appeared, even though the house was brightly lit.“

    "AJ, don't make Abuela tired!" Ruby reprimanded AJ for running away with something, while Mia pursued him.But it was impossible to make AJ stop, especially since his younger siblings were laughing joyfully at his antics. Elisa and Elena had just learned to walk, and they happily followed him around.AJ couldn't stop when he had such an audience. Mia seemed to be scolding him, but everyone knew Mia could never really be upset at AJ.Ruby had to step in, followed by Ed to watch over Elisa and Elena. Although falling on the sand wouldn't hurt, the beach had sharp rocks that could scrape them."Mommy! They should chase me! Don't pick them up!" AJ didn’t want his little sisters to be carried away and stop the fun."Alright," Ruby said, intending to supervise them closely."How about we take a vacation?" Ed abruptly proposed the idea, having just finished reading a message on his phone."Hm?" Ruby was surprised. There had been no suc

    "Here."Ed gave Otiz a handkerchief to wipe away his tears. If it had been just a few, he would have let Otiz cry—and wiped the tears with the sleeve of his jacket.The problem was that Otiz couldn’t stop crying. He had already been emotional when Ed stood beside him at the altar, and it got worse when he saw Lori walking down the aisle, escorted by flowers. It was all too beautiful and dazzling for his eyes.“Sorry,” Otiz stammered, wiping the remaining tears from his face.“What are you apologizing for? At a wedding, shedding tears is not considered inappropriate. You're just too happy. No one will blame you.” Ed gently patted Otiz’s shoulder and then turned his gaze forward.Of course, Lori was the focus of the event. Her choice of dress was perfect, blending seamlessly with the entire garden decor. Flowers, ribbons, music, and all the other elements were carefully and precisely chosen—now showcasi

    Ed tapped his finger on the glass in his hand. His eyes were fixed on a single point—Marco Reyes.The man was speaking with Otiz. Nothing important. Marco was just making small talk, and Otiz was doing the same—being polite, answering Marco's questions about his law firm's progress. Ed actually needed to speak to both of them, but he chose to start with Marco first.Ed just needed to gesture with his chin, and Otiz understood immediately. He excused himself, making up a reason, and left Marco alone."I need to talk to you," Ed said as he approached."Oh? What is it?" Marco immediately followed Ed, moving to the quiet side yard. The other guests filled the living room."I want you to handle the shipment to Ecuador and Brazil next week."Marco looked as if he had choked. This was incredibly surprising. Ed had never let him touch the South American market before. Ed had always handled it himself. Marco had only been managing North A

    "Mommy, I want to try! You be Elena, and I'll be Elisa."AJ reached out his hand, asking for the milk bottle from Ruby. He wanted to try feeding the babies—and he chose Elisa.Usually, Tita was around to help Ruby, but today Tita was busy, so Ruby had been on her own since earlier."You can, but please be careful, okay? Don’t let her choke, and don’t squeeze." Ruby guided AJ's hand to hold the bottle filled with pre-warmed breast milk, helping him apply just the right pressure so it wouldn't press too hard against Elisa's lips."Wow! Look, Mommy! She's drinking!" AJ exclaimed happily, eyes sparkling with joy. This was the first time he was directly involved—doing something for his little sister. AJ usually watched, but at first he was afraid to hold the babies. He would look in awe but wouldn’t dare touch them.“See? It’s not a big deal, right? You don’t have to be scared anymore.”&l

    From their disheveled appearance, it was clear that Liz and Asher had either just rushed out of a room or possibly run over here. One thing was certain: as soon as they heard the news about Ruby, they had hurried over."Where? Ruby... You're pale. Why... It shouldn't be happening now."Just like Lori, Liz was out of breath as she approached Ruby, panicking. The news had shocked everyone. Liz had already planned to stay in Puerto Vallarta next week to be there for Ruby when she gave birth.Of course, Liz no longer lived at Ed’s house. She had managed to buy her own apartment.“I’m fine, and they’re fine too. But the nurse hasn’t brought them here yet. Calm down… breathe.”Ruby was already able to speak clearly and now had to calm Liz down. She was the one lying down, barely conscious, yet had to reassure everyone else."Are you really okay? No problems? Any complications?" Liz touched Ruby’s bo
