Gary glanced at him. "Why isn't Ruby here yet?" "Ruby said that she is waiting for the nanny to finish cooking the soup. She said that she will bring you ssoup later." Paul sat down by the bed. "Maybe she is trying to get Elliot to cover." "Hmph! She textedall that last night." Gary narrowed his eyes. "That's why I'm asking why they aren't here yet." "I see. Then maybe she isn’t waiting for the soup, but she is trying to convince Elliot to come," said Paul.
Gary snorted. "I'm not going to let him off easy whether he comes here or not. | trusted him, and | treated him better than | treated you. | trusted him with my whole heart, and he betrayed me! Haha!" For sreason, Paul was distracted.
"What are you thinking about?" Gary glared at him. "There is no one else that | can rely upon but you. You need to get a grip!" "Father, | will do anything you ask of me, irrespective of the cost, but Ruby will be sad if your relationship with Elliot continues to deteriorate," said Paul. "She is pregnant right now, and if she's in a bad mood, it will not be good for the baby as well." "You sure care for her, don't you? Why exactly do you think my relationship with Elliot is this horrible? It's because she has been useless!" Gary roared. "If only she was capable of putting Elliot under her spell, as Avery did, then Elliot would not have stood idly by while someone tried to kill me!" "Father, Ruby has just married Elliot, so it's normal that they haven't developed a bond. Just give her stime." "| agree with you, and that is why | haven't said anything to her. She rivals Avery in beauty, but she can't hold a candle next to Avery when it comes to ability!" barked Gary in contempt.

You can always tell what a person is capable of at a young age. Ruby doesn't have what it takes to lead.
She is a doll, valued only for the entertainment it provides. With the way that she is, if | don't find her a capable husb Outside the room, Ruby could not help but shiver as she held onto the thermal lunchbox.

It was no wonder that Edward had said that Gary had no intention of passing his legacy down to Ruby. It was because she was nothing but a doll to him.
"Miss, let's go inside!" the nanny said.
The nanny had accompanied Ruby here and had overheard what Gary had said. However, the nanny saw the entire exchange differently. To her, Ruby did not have a right to be angry with her father, since, without him, she would never have been able to enjoy such a luxurious life.
Paul heard noises from outside the room and strode out. When he saw the gloomy expression on Ruby's face, he immediately reached out and grabbed her by the arm. " Ruby, when did you arrive? Why didn’t you cin?" She forced a smile, trying to present a picture of utter calm. "I've just arrived." "Oh... Father was just asking about you." Paul tried to take the thermal lunchbox from her, but Ruby did not let him.
