" Now I understand your plan. You are using Ruby as a pawn in your love game. Isn't it!! " Katherine yelled at him.

" Kathie… Trust me...I really love Ruby. I truly want to marry her " he said sincerely.

" I am not a fool to believe your words. In the past, your father cheated on one woman after impregnating her. Like father, like son. I don't want the same thing to happen with Ruby, " she said venomously.

" If she knows your true identity then she will never even see your face " she smirked.

Suddenly his body froze with her words. He doesn't want to lose Ruby in his life.

" Please….Kathie...don't say that. I can't think of my future without her, " he almost begged her.

" As Adrian loves you, I too love her…" he said.

" Shut your mouth…" she screamed.

She slapped his face, fuming in anger. 

" Don't ever dare to compare your love with my Adrian. He never slept with any woman except me in his life. So stop comparing yourself with my Ad, " she shouted.

Meanwhile, Adrian and Ruby entered the conference room and were shocked. 

Ruby quickly ran towards them and stood between them.

" Kathie...it's too much. How can you insult him in his company like that? I know that you don't like Steven. But this is too much. I respect you but at the same time, I love him so much. I can't see you insulting him like that, " she cried.

" He was the one who helped you to stop drinking the spiked drink in the event. If he was not there at the time, you might be humiliated in front of everyone, " she added.

" Oh...so...he trapped you by acting as if he saved me! I doubt he is the one who spiked my drink…" Kathie said, looking at Steven, fuming in anger. She was so hurt that it was the first time Ruby opposed her.

Ruby opened her mouth to explain but Steven held Ruby's hand and stopped talking further.

" Ruby… enough… " he interrupted.

Silent tears were running down her cheeks. She lowered her head and stood as Ruby's heart was heavy to talk against Kathie whom she respects the most.

Kathie was bewildered to know that Ruby was already in love with Steven. When she was gawking at Steven, Adrian intervened. 

" I am sorry ...on behalf of my wife, Mr. Brown, " Adrian said and dragged Kathie out of the conference hall. Adrian was so upset with Kathie's behavior. He expected her anger but not this much hatred towards Steven. 

They didn't talk with each other until they reached the parking lot of Steven's company.

" Kathie….What is wrong with you!! " He questioned as soon as getting in the car. He doesn't want someone to hear their conservation.

" He is a playboy. He doesn't love her but lusts over her. I did wrong by giving one slap. I would have killed him with my bare hands, " she replied.

" How dare he! To compare his lust with your love!! Your love is pure like holy water and his ..." She shouted, keeping a straight face.

" What! You slapped him!! " he was flabbergasted. 

He was in confusion, how to react after hearing her words. He was very delighted to know that she has so much trust in his love and feels like her pride but didn't like her extreme dislike for Steven.

" Yes. I slapped him, " she replied in a serious tone after a few seconds.

" I think it's better if you think about him again. I know you love Ruby so much. Maybe he used to be a playboy but I saw the sincerity in his eyes for Ruby. More importantly, Ruby too loves him " he advised.

She glared at him and explained her first meeting with Steven.

" You trust me, right! " He asked her, cupping her face.

She nodded looking at his face. He smiled and kissed her forehead.

" Then try to give a chance to prove his love for Ruby. As you said if he is not serious about Ruby. I will handle him, " he said.

" What if he hurts Ruby!! " She asked him.

" We are there for her…" Adrian said.

" Okay then. I will think about it…" she replied, looking at her lap.

….

After Adrian took Katherine along with him. There were no words exchanged between Steven and Ruby. She was crying continuously. 

Steven walked towards her and raised her head cupping her face. Instantly she hugged him tightly as her life depended on him.

" I am so sorry. It all happened because of me. I don't know why Kathie dislikes you!! " she sobbed.

He caressed her back with his palms gently to calm her. Slowly her cry turned to hiccups. 

" Ruby…." 

" Ruby…"

He called by her name but she remained silent holding him tight. 

" Honey... I don't want your legs to strain by standing for a long time by hugging me " he whispered in her ears to change her mood.

She moved away and raised her head. 

He smiled at her and continued, " I will be glad if you hug me in another position. Let's go to my cabin" 

They went into his cabin and made a call to the help desk person to not connect any calls to his cabin till the evening.

" But we have an important meeting this afternoon, " Ruby said.

" You are more important to me. We can postpone it for tomorrow…" he said and pulled her on his lap.

" Steven...please...leave… What if someone finds us in this position? I don't want to embarrass myself in front of the other employees of the company " she informed and instantly stood up from his chair.

" Being a secretary, everyone should take appointments from you to meet me. And without your permission, no one can meet me. And your point is also valid. So I have a great idea…" he smirked.

The next second, he stood up from his chair and lifted her. He placed her on his shoulder like a sack bag. He ignored them even though she was punching with her fist on his back to keep him down. Taking long strides, he walked towards his private room attached to his cabin.
