The First Heir

Chapter 276

In the elevator, Ruby had also recognized both Howard and Philip.

Without an ounce of regret, her first response was to frown disgustedly and glare at the duo.

Then, right before Howard’s eyes, she pecked the middle-aged man on his cheek and neck.

She even went as far as to humor the man by clinging on to him.

Time froze.

The elevator doors closed.

Philip sighed hopelessly and walked forward to pat the shocked Howard on his shoulder. “I’ve been trying to tell you. Ruby…”

Howard interrupted before Philip could finish talking. With a forced smile and tears that threatened to spill from his eyes, he said, “Come on, let’s go. It’s time to eat. Ruby just went to buy something. She’ll be back in a while.”

Philip was stunned. ‘Howard really doesn’t plan to admit it, does he?’

Having said that, Howard turned to leave.

Philip’s expression hardened as he watched Howard’s retreating figure. He roared, “Dude! How the f*ck long more are you going to lie to yourself? That over there was Ruby Ford! The woman you’ve loved for four long years! The woman who has only seen you as a wallet and nothing else!”

“Stop!”

Howard turned around and glowered at Philip with reddened eyes. “It wasn’t her! It wasn’t!”

Right at that moment, the doors to the elevator opened again and out walked Ruby.
