Bab 186: Chapter 186: Avery’s Motive

Avery gags and accidentally swallows the thick pudding. Ruby lets her go and smiles victoriously. Avery anxiously wonders what Ruby has put in the dish. She thinks, Have I been poisoned?

She rises to her feet and raises her hand to slap Ruby. Before she can hit the other woman, Michelle flies across the room and hits Ruby with a backhanded slap.

"What are you doing?" Andrew asks from the door.

Ruby quickly releases her grip on Michelle's hair and covers her face with her hands. Avery can see her rubbing her eyes violently to make them water. So she's going to play the victim, Avery thinks. She's pathetic.
