Chapter 461: Chapter 461: No Need for Nobility, Only Tactics (1)

Ruby had never liked anyone, so she didn’t know what it felt like to like someone. However, seeing Madeleine so upset made her feel upset as well: “Madeleine, what are you going to do?”

Madeleine didn’t make a sound. Her hand gripped the sink tightly, so tight that her knuckles protruded.

“Madeleine, in this world, there aren’t just Howard, there are many other men. Maybe someone else is more suitable for you…”

As Ruby was still speaking, Madeleine’s tears suddenly fell in rapid succession. Ruby was startled and immediately closed her mouth, not daring to say anything else.

Madeleine seemed truly miserable. She leaned against the washbasin and began sobbing, as if trying to cry out all the pain she had accumulated over the years.

Ruby stood aside, not saying anything and letting Madeleine cry.

Fortunately, the bathroom was quiet, and not many people were coming in and out.

After a long while, Madeleine stopped crying. Slowly raising her head, she looked at Ruby through the mirror and spoke, “Ruby, whether someone else is suitable for me, I don’t know, nor do I want to know. I only know that in my heart, Howard is the right one for me.”

“But…” Ruby opened her mouth, her voice lowered, “He already has someone he wants to marry.”

“So what?” Madeleine’s tone changed to one of disdain in an instant, as if the heartbroken girl from just now had been an illusion. A hint of determination flowed in her eyes, “I’m not letting him marry anyone else. Ruby, just like how you wanted to marry my brother since young, I’ve been thinking about marrying Howard. The difference between us is that you marry my brother for the sake of The Gregorys, while I want to marry Howard because I love him. I used to think that one day, when he grows tired and weary, I would let my father talk to his father, and then our families would unite through marriage. However, I haven’t even had the chance to see this day come, and he already has a woman he wants to marry, and she’s just a low-ranking employee at Pristine’s Enterprises… Ruby, I can’t give up. Rather than that, I might as well fight for him. Moreover, if I don’t fight for him, I will really lose Howard, won’t I?”

Ruby moved her lips, as if wanting to say something, but she couldn’t.

Madeleine seemed to understand Ruby’s thoughts, and she chuckled, “Ruby, deep down you must be thinking that my actions are immoral, right? But what does that matter? For the sake of loving Howard, what does morality mean?”

Ruby felt uneasy and said, “But if you do this, won’t you push Howard further away from you?”

Madeleine’s expression changed upon hearing this. She stared at the sink for a while, then slowly straightened up and turned around to face Ruby, her eyes somewhat vacant, “Ruby, sometimes, loving someone doesn’t require nobility, just means. I admit that I use means to obtain love; this method is despicable, but I’ll bear the consequences and any pain I cause myself in the future.”

After saying that, Madeleine smiled faintly at Ruby, looking as if nothing was wrong, “I’m going to use the restroom. You can go back to the private room first, don’t worry about me, I’ll be fine.”
