Ruby Bluen had hurt Glades Horne, and in her heart, Sovia Morris had already cursed her a million times over. If she didn't want to marry him, why set a wedding date? After setting the date, why run away? What did that even mean? What did she take Glades Horne for? A toy to play with? And if she was going to run, why come back? What in the world was going on at the main Horne family residence? They hadn't even passed on the news of Ruby Bluen's return. Plus, her son was with Ruby, and still no word from them!
Sovia Morris was seething with fury.
"Miss Ruby, may I ask what you are doing here? You are not welcome. Didn't you run away? Why didn't you run further?" When Sovia Morris wasn't being polite, her words were incredibly cutting. That's why people said she was formidable; even the family matriarch said she was like an 'official's wife'—one official, two mouths, meaning no one could win an argument against her.
