CHAPTER 91RUBY'S POV I was relieved that I wouldn't have to keep such a huge secret away from Dax anymore, but Avery didn't feel the same way. She lost her shit once I told her what transpired between me and Dax in the performance room, and her eyes were so wild… like she was so close to murdering me for losing a potential customer like Mr. Kellen.“What the fuck did you do, Ruby? Did you tell him something that made him change his mind about coming here? Or aren't you satisfying him anymore? What the fuck happened?” She panicked with wide eyes and I couldn't speak.“Answer me!” She suddenly yelled and I flinched in reaction to how scaringly loud she was.“He said he's in love with someone. That it's his second chance with her and he doesn't want to ruin it again” I said and she scoffed.“Wasn't he talking about you? Aren't you the one whom everyone knows as the woman who reunited with him after breaking up eight years ago? You're Ruby and you're also Magenta. So if you know what's

CHAPTER 93DAX'S POV “You're scaring me, Dax. Is something going on?” Ruby asked me when I didn't say anything yet and I smiled while shaking my head in response. There was absolutely nothing to be frightened about. Instead, she was going to be happy in a few seconds.“There's nothing to fret about, Ruby. I just have a surprise for you. Can you come outside with me for a while?” I asked her and she gave me a lingering look with suspicion all over her face before she gave in and stood up.“I'd like to know what's going so I'm coming with you” she said and I grinned before I followed her to stand up too. Then I took her hand and I smirked at Simon who was still watching me questioningly.They had no idea what was going on either and it felt good to see the curiosity on their faces as they watched me and Ruby. I bet they were wondering where I was taking her and why I was just whisking her away without any explanation. “We'd be back after a few minutes so you guys should wait here unti

CHAPTER 95RUBY'S POV That night, I stayed back in the hospital with Clarissa and Sally. I was supposed to head to the club but I decided to fuck it all and do what I wanted for once.Mostly because I now had a new job and didn't care much about my stripper job any longer. I wanted to feel the thrill of being free to do what I wanted while still being employed by the club and even though it was being spent in a hospital, it was with the ones I loved… my family.Avery kept on calling me repeatedly obviously to know why I wasn't at the club to work since Dax had left but I ignored them and she stopped calling when she finally got the message.So together with Clarissa, and Sally, we had takeout for dinner then Sally had her bath with my and Clarissa's help so her injury doesn't get wet and after that, we both tucked her into bed to sleep before we made ourselves comfortable on the couches in the ward.I was still ecstatic about the surprise from Dax so I couldn't stop grinning while I

CHAPTER 97RUBY'S POV I felt like I was floating on clouds while I drove my way back home. I couldn't stop smiling or humming along to the song that played from the radio and when I got to a traffic light where I had to stop, I even danced along for a moment before I continued to drive.I felt like the happiest person alive. Like nothing could deter my good mood and even though I was still feeling guilty about selling Dax's plan for a partnership to Dennis, I trusted Dennis to keep it a secret for me so Dax wouldn't find out during his investigation. I knew he was going to do his part since I did him a huge favor by giving him what he wanted, which was to feel superior to Dax in the industry… even if it was going to be momentary and I began to consider Clarissa's advice. Maybe I could tell Dennis I was done with the deal and be out of it for good… regardless, I did my part as we agreed and I believed once was enough.I arrived home and had my car parked before I got down and headed

CHAPTER 99RUBY'S POV It was easy to get a good parking spot when I arrived at Dax's company and when I got to the entrance this time, I was welcomed warmly by the security because everyone knew who I was and what I was to Dax ever since the last time I came to his office.I cast the security a brief smile before making my way into the elevator and pressing the button to the first floor. Then I took my phone out of my bag and dialed Dax's number and he picked up on the first ring.I smiled to myself on realizing he must have been waiting for my call and it felt exhilarating once again to know I had a man who was that crazy over me. It felt new and exciting… It made me feel special.“Hello darling, are you on your way to the company already or are you still home? I could come and get you once I'm done with this meeting if you want” he spoke first and I grinned helplessly while my stomach fluttered furiously.The man was so good at getting me flattered and moved by every word and act o
