Chapter 10 I'm not an outsider either
Her mother in law and a young women, walked over while chatting and laughing arm in arm, looking carefully, Ruby recognized the woman. She was just the woman that accompanied her husband last night.
Mrs. Ethan did not seem to have expected to meet Ruby in the hospital.
When their eyes met, the awkwardness flashed on Mrs. Ethan’s face. She nodded towards Mrs. Lu and said with a smile: "I felt not good, my son asked Sherry to come with me to the hospital. Don't think too much about it."
"I see, Ethan’s assistant." Ruby smiled and said, holding her mother's arm without fear, "Merely, mom, you can call me next time, and don’t need to call anyone outside."
Mrs. Ethan smiled awkwardly.
On the other hand, Sherry was extremely arrogant. Upon hearing Ruby's sarcastic remark, her face turned cold: "Miss Ruby, I am Ethan’s assistant, and it’s my responsibility to take care of his mother. I am not an outsider either."
Seeing that the woman was so arrogant, Mrs. Lord was unhappy and tried to fight for her daughter.
Ruby stopped her and said in a bland voice, "Your boss is Ethan, and I am his wife. You should call me Mrs. Ethan, not miss Ruby, you don’t even know this common sense, I doubt how you could be an assistant.”
Sherry’s face clouded over more.
Ruby only glanced at Sherry and smiling at Mrs. Ethan. "Mom, I'm sorry, I'm too busy to accompany you. Let Sherry send you back. I'll be taking my leave first."
"Alright." Mrs. Ethan nodded and did not say much.
Ruby also caught a glimpse of the contempt in Mrs. Ethan s eyes. She pretended that she didn't see it, just walking past them with her mother.
Before they got married, she took much care of Ethan's family and often came to visit them with gifts whenever, yet no one treated her well, but Mrs. Ethan did. Maybe because of Ruby’s rich family.
When Mrs. Ethan was hospitalized for kidney stones, Ruby had been taking care of her at the hospital for most of a month. She prepared three meals and sent to the hospital for her every day until she left the hospital.
However, being as good to Mrs. Ethan as her mother for a long period, she didn’t receive attention at all, so she was tired.
It was really tiring.
No matter how much she gave, Ethan would never see it.
She realized that she left behind two bags of medicine when she was out of the hospital, and asked her mother to wait for her then went back to get them.
They once again met Sherry at the long corridor, Mrs. Ethan was not by her side this time.
Seeing Ruby, she stepped forward and blocked her way with her high heels: "Ruby, let's talk."
His appearance was extremely overbearing.
Ruby did not look at her and walked around her a few times, but Sherry kept in the way, so she stopped.
"About what?"
"My name is Sherry, you can check on my family background." Sherry said with a disdainful tone, "I also know about your father’s downfall."
Ruby said with a spurious smile: "My father’s matter is known to the entire city, it would be strange if you don't know!"
In the morning when she was waiting for Ethan at the hospital, she had looked up Sherry’s information on her phone. Her father worked on the real estate business, and own a hundred million asset. She was an upper—class princess.
The reason why such a rich girl was willing to be someone's assistant was obvious.
Sherry wasn’t willing to waste time with Ruby, and went straight to the point, "I know you need two million. If you divorce Ethan, I'll give you the amount."
She took out a cheque from her bag, wrote a few words, and passed it to Ruby with two fingers.
Ruby glanced at the cheque, it was a two—million cheque with a seal on it. If she agreed, she could go to the bank and cash out the cheque right now.
Ruby didn't pick it and only glanced at her.
"Ethan and I are happy, why would we divorce each other? It's not like I can't borrow the two million. "
