Chapter 95:
Although Ruby braced herself to strike, Elena remained as calm and relaxed as ever.
Elena calmly warned Ruby, “You might want to hold off on that anger, there’s a big surprise coming.”
Ruby was puzzled by Elena’s cryptic words.
She raised her hand to strike Elena, but stopped suddenly when she spotted the private images of herself with Darwin on Elena’s phone.
Suddenly, Ruby froze, her hand suspended mid-air in stunned disbelief.
“You… Where did you get that?!” Ruby huffed.
Her eyes widened in alarm as she lunged forward, desperate to erase the photo.
Elena, comfortably seated, tapped her toes against the floor, smoothly gliding her chair just beyond Ruby’s reach.
Ruby’s hands swiped at empty air before she lost her balance and hit the ground with a loud thud.
Ignoring the sting of the fall, she scrambled to her feet, determined to try again.
This time, Elena caught her wrist with ease.
For the first time, a flicker of panic crossed Ruby’s face. “What do you want? That picture isn’t real!”
Elena’s lips curled into a smirk. “Not real?”
Her attention shifted as she noticed someone approaching from the doorway. Letting go of Ruby’s arm, she lifted her chin slightly. “Whether it’s real or not, go explain it to Mrs. Kelly.”
Noor Kelly, Darwin’s wife, stepped inside, her gaze sweeping across the room before locking onto Ruby. Without hesitation, she strode forward and struck her across the face.
Each slap landed harder than the last.
Grabbing a fistful of Ruby’s hair, Noor yanked her head back. “You shameless woman! Finally, I’ve caught you. Sneaking around with my husband, trying to take what isn’t yours? Let’s see how attractive you are after today!”
Ruby had never faced such an aggressive and fearless woman before.

Horrified, she shrieked, “Ah! Let me go! Security! Get her off me!”
“You bitch!” Noor scoffed, landing two more blows. “Darwin and I built everything from the ground up, and he dares to sneak around with someone like you? You’re about to find out what happens to women who destroy marriages!”
She was relentless, striking and twisting Ruby’s skin with unyielding force.
The onlookers stood frozen, too stunned to interfere.
Only when the security team arrived did they manage to separate the two women.
Ruby’s face was swollen, her hair a tangled mess, leaving her looking utterly wrecked.
Still fuming, Noor spat, “Get your manager in here! A woman like this doesn’t deserve to work here!”
Someone had already alerted Monica as soon as the commotion started.
By the time Monica returned to the office, she had pieced together what had happened. Acting swiftly, she escorted Noor out and then addressed Ruby in private.
