Chapter 876: Chapter 876 Ruby Time: After the Wedding (Ending 2)_1
Ruby Gregory watched as her card’s balance depleted to eighty percent, yet Steve Burton’s call still hadn’t come.
Her heart was both elated and anxious.
She was happy that she could spend Steve’s money so freely without his interference, as if she had carte blanche, yet anxious that Steve might be too busy to even notice the spending alerts.
As Ruby hesitated over whether to pay for the dozens of bags she had selected, her phone suddenly chimed.

Had Steve finally reacted?
Ruby swiftly swiped open her phone screen, expecting a message from Steve inquiring about her spending, only to find a notification from the bank.
“Your account ending in XXXX has received a deposit of 10,000,000,000 RMB on March 9 at 15:37.”
Ruby’s expression froze in an instant.
It wasn’t a message from Steve but from the bank?
Before Ruby could snap out of her daze, her phone chimed again. She hurriedly checked, only to find a text from Steve: “Do you have enough to spend?”
Ruby didn’t answer Steve’s question but asked one of her own, “Was it you who transferred it?”
Steve quickly replied, “Yes, feel free to spend it. If it’s not enough, I’ll have Ms. Taylor deposit another hundred billion for you.”
Emily Gregory, having just finished choosing her bags, saw Ruby standing there, staring at her phone for a while, and walked over curiously. She caught a glimpse of the conversation between Steve and Ruby, and imitating the tone Ruby had used with her earlier, she said, “Your husband seems to treat you quite well!”

At five o’clock in the afternoon, Emily and Ruby bid each other farewell.
After seeing Ruby off from Inassey, Emily headed straight to Alfred Smith’s company.
Alfred was in a meeting, so she sat bored in his office, playing Fruit Ninja on his iPad.
Emily waited until six o’clock, when Alfred finally finished work, and they drove home together.
On the way home, Emily thought about the afternoon conversations between Ruby and Steve, and couldn’t help but envy Ruby’s husband as she praised him to Alfred, who was driving, “Alfred, do you still remember Ruby? This afternoon, while shopping with her, she spent her husband’s money without blinking an eye. He didn’t have any complaints the whole time and even transferred a hundred billion to her when she nearly maxed out the card. Her husband is really good to her!”
Despite being married for four years, Alfred was still too petty to accept his wife’s praise for another man. While waiting for the traffic lights, he pulled out his phone, tapped a few times, and then Emily’s phone chimed.
Emily took out her phone to see a transfer notification from the bank, with an amount ten times larger than what Ruby received in the afternoon.

Inassey was quite a distance from the West Suburb Villa; Ruby drove home to find Steve’s car already parked in the Burtons’ Mansion garage.
As Ruby opened the door and changed her shoes, Mrs. Taylor greeted her, “Miss, you’re back?”
Ruby smiled faintly, thinking of Steve’s car at home, and asked, “Where’s Steve?”
“Mr. Steve is upstairs in the den with the young master and young miss.”
Ruby nodded, said nothing more, and ascended the stairs with an air of grace.
