They thought being with Owen would make them the princess, inheriting a billion-dollar group.
Ruby saw me looking at the photos without speaking and thought I felt guilty. She straightened her back and thrust her belly out.
"Even if my husband is paralyzed, I still have his child in my belly! There's no way it's your turn to take over Murphy Group!"
My assistant beside me told me that "Murphy's adopted daughter to seize the true prince's inheritance" had hit the hot search. The company's stock had dropped several points.
My face darkened. I prepared to have this raving lunatic dragged away.
As soon as I opened my mouth, Ruby reached out to grab my mom's ashes.
"What right do you have to hold Mom's ashes for burial? I am carrying her only grandchild in my belly. She is my mother-in-law! I am the legitimate Murphy family member!"
I was her daughter. I couldn't lay my mom. However, is she carrying who knows what in her belly fit to do it?
"What right do you have to hold my mom's ashes? I should be the one to bury her! You will only disturb her soul."
Ruby wiped away tears in front of the livestream.
"My mother-in-law was wise her whole life but made one mistake. She let this woman into the company. She framed my husband and pulled him down from his position as general manager. She then used the opportunity to harm my mother-in-law and take her place. Now, she's turned my husband into a vegetable.
"I wanted to quietly give birth to my child, but she didn't even inform me about the funeral. If it weren't for my family's support, I'd still be suffering alone!"
The company is large, and not all the shareholders support me. Now, hearing Ruby's words, they all look at me differently.
"She does have some ability, but she's too ruthless."
"Owen had a car accident over half a month ago, and Ruby didn't make a fuss. This time, she must have deliberately not informed her about the funeral, which pushed Ruby to this point."
"She pushed Ruby too hard!"
People hiding in the back chattered away, painting me as a ruthless schemer.
Hearing that people believed her, Ruby raised her chin confidently.
She directly went to grab the urn. I tried to dodge, but someone behind her grabbed my hand.
Ruby deliberately grabbed my elbow, aiming the camera at the bloody wound.
"Guys! She won't learn a lesson unless we make her suffer!
