Days passed painfully slow and Ruby didn't know what to do anymore. She had hardly seen Jaxon because he was always busy, at the office, or was just somewhere that wasn't where she was. Their relationship had deteriorated and Ruby didn't know how to revive it.It was like they had gone back to square one where she loved Jaxon but he was always cold to her. He always claimed to be busy and avoided her any chance he got. He didn't kiss her anymore or hold her in his arms, she didn't even remember when they had hugged last. He'd stopped calling her his Gem as well. And that close relationship they once had seemed to be so far away. It saddened her to think about how many steps back they had gone in their relationship because of the whole pregnancy fiasco.The only thing Jaxon still did was cook for her, so maybe all hope hadn't been lost and he still cared for her. She wondered when their relationship would go back to normal and she worried it would never be the same as the chasm betw

“I’m sorry.” Ruby tightened her hold around him.“I’m so sorry.” Ruby sadly mumbled. Jaxon sighed as he softly started to pat her head.“I’m so sorry I caused you so much pain. I feel so stupid.” Ruby whispered and her whole body started to shake as her eyes teared up.Jaxon groaned as he trailed his hands up and down her back in a soothing way. If there was anything he hated more than seeing her in danger it was seeing her cry.“I’m so sorry for being such a bad wife. I should have known better and trusted you. You have never given me a reason not to trust you and I have messed up so badly at the first time of being put to the test. I should have given you the benefits of the doubt and listened to you but I was quick to judge.” Ruby was deeply saddened and disappointed in herself. She couldn’t believe that she had picked her sister’s words over his in a heartbeat.Kim had lied to her on so many occasions so why did she trust her so blindly? Why did she break the heart of her husband

Kim paced around her and Ruby's childhood home in angry steps. Why was this happening to her? How could it even happen? She had planned so meticulously and when she thought everything was right on track and she was about to come out victorious, it all blew up in her face.The familiar walls of the house would have welcomed her in any other setting. But just the fact that Ruby also stayed here and there were traces of her everywhere made her want to rip the house into shreds. She'd fled here after the situation had gone a different path than she had expected. Just thinking of the fact she was pregnant with some... Some driver's baby made her want to gag. She'd get rid of it, that's for sure. There was no way she was having a poor man's child.Jaxon was the one who caused her to be in this situation, and she had run out of curses to use on him. It was all because of Ruby too, she thought as she fumed. She hated Damon, the stupid driver who'd gotten her pregnant, Jaxon, and most especial

Ruby felt at peace for the first time since Kim had ripped her heart out. Lord knows that she had been utterly devastated when Kim had broken the news to her about her pregnancy and who was allegedly responsible for it, Jaxon being the one who was blamed. She was beyond relieved that wasn't true and also happy that she and Jaxon had reconciled at last.If anyone asked her about the situation between her and Jaxon, she would probably tell them she had cried a river when Jaxon had refused to talk or even listen to her. And she was not joking about the crying part either. Her eyes still tingled from the excessive crying and swelling. She knew Jaxon had been really upset with her then as she hadn't seen him like that before. It was one thing for him to be cold to her because he wasn't close to her all that much, and that had only been at the beginning of their relationship journey. It was a completely different ball game when he made it a point to ignore her and act like she didn't exis

Jaxon had just left for work and Ruby was bored. She missed him already and it hasn’t been up to an hour. She sighed as she thought of what to do with all the free time she had.She was tired of just laying around and not doing anything. She looked around the room and her eyes sparkled as she saw some misplaced things.She hurriedly stood up from the bed and hummed a cheerful tune as she flitted about the room, her eyes alight with excitement as she rearranged the furniture and decor. She fluffed pillows, straightened pictures, and fiddled with trinkets, her fingers danced as she happily put everything back in its original place.The room was transformed. Each object was back in its original place, and one could see the thought, care, and effort that was put into arranging everything.Ruby smiled in satisfaction as she stepped back to admire her handwork. She felt happy as she walked to the cozy bed and sat on the edge.Her phone started to ring, and she hurriedly picked it off the be

Ruby’s whole body was wrecked with shivers of fright as she dropped the phone call. She was scared.She was scared not for herself but for Jaxon. She knew how cruel life can be to the rich and Jaxon has been ruling the business world for years. She knew that he had so many enemies waiting for the right opportunity to destroy him, and with the file in Kim’s possession, that could be arranged.Ruby feared that an uproar would occur once the contents of the contract went out to the public and she could imagine how big a scandal it would turn into. The public isn't as loving as they looked and who would know better than her?People would talk and judge Jaxon without knowing his reasons, and his competitors would use the opportunity to run him out of business. She could picture his shareholders withdrawing from the company and leaving him bankrupt.Ruby couldn’t allow that to happen. She felt a headache coming up and blinked her eyes repeatedly to clear her fogged-up vision.She knew she h

Ruby was tired. Physically and mentally. Why was it that when her life was finally focusing on the right path, something would borrow through and throw her in for a loop? She sighed as she thought about her current predicament with Kim and she was hurt and angry. Those two emotions fought for dominance within her but neither had succeeded. She was hurt because it was her sister who was causing her so much pain, and she wondered if she ever really knew Kim. She couldn't believe Kim would blackmail her and threaten to ruin her life all for money. Was Kim really that shallow?Anger also came into play when she thought about the fact that she hadn't destroyed that stupid contract when it had officially ended. If she had, none of this would be happening to her right now. The fact that it was Kim who was using the contract against her didn't help one bit, because if you had a sister like that, then who needed enemies?She hadn't even told Jaxon about all that was happening to her because

Ruby couldn't believe her current predicament. More like she couldn't believe how Kim could be so shameless. She had thought that the worst Kim could do had passed after she had blackmailed her for money by using the contract. But who knew Kim was just getting started and that she planned to milk Ruby and the situation dry with the damned contract.Ruby cursed the day she had left the contract in that house. She didn't even know why she had not gotten rid of hers. She knew Jaxon must have destroyed his, more so when they decided to stay together which rendered the contract useless.Ruby glanced at her phone and nearly groaned out loud as she looked at the multiple missed calls Kim had given her because of money. She hadn't even given Kim money long ago, so she wondered how she could have gone through it so fast. She had given her a hefty sum too, so unless Kim was living like a millionaire wherever she was, it wasn't possible for her to run through the money that fast. Or was she sav
