Chapter 60 Where Was He Going?

• “Escort Miss Kallis off the ship,” Jane said promptly, summoning a crew member to take Ruby off the ship. She didn’t want to create a scene in front of Byron. “Miss Yoris, I know I was wrong. Cora, I apologize to you. Please don’t make me leave the ship,” Ruby pleaded desperately. As the crew member tried to pull Ruby away, she finally realized this was no joke. She screamed and begged desperately, not wanting to become a laughingstock. What was more, she did not want to create animosity between the already struggling Kallis family and the Yoris family or the Hansen family, which would be a catastrophe for her family. However, it was apparent that her belated apology held no significance anymore. She was quickly escorted off the ship, her luggage unceremoniously thrown after her.
• After sending Ruby away, Jane smiled at Cora and said, “As Dr. Lane wished, the noisy one disappeared, and I hope you enjoy the party tonight.” Her words and smile seemed cordial, but there was a hint of lingering dissatisfaction. Sending Ruby away had no real impact on Jane, but the problem was that Cora did not follow the path she laid out, indirectly rebuffing her. Moreover, Jane noticed the silent eye exchange between Cora and Byron just moments ago. Although their faces showed no extra emotion, there was an atmosphere that excluded others, making Jane feel quite uncomfortable.
• “Thank you, Dr. Yoris." Cora nodded, smiling. Jane then gestured to the butler responsible for the birthday party to hand Cora’s room key to Carter, saying, “Let Carter take you to your room. Have a good rest.” This time, Cora didn’t resist her arrangement, and Carter naturally took Cora’s luggage, leading her toward the guest rooms. With the farce finally coming to an end, the spectators greeted Byron and Jane before returning to their rooms to rest and prepare for the party tonight in better spirits. Jane adjusted her mood slightly and then smiled at Byron. “Byron, this is your room key. My room is just opposite yours. Let’s go together.”
