~{RUBY'S POV}~
*
When I hurried outside the room to meet with the butler, Eric followed me like he had been waiting for me to step out.
The moment I found the butler, I told him what my father requested of him and he nodded in understanding and went to get it done.
When I turned around with the motive of heading back, Eric blocked my path and I looked up at him in confusion while he calmly stared down at me.
"What?" I blurted out and narrowed my eyes on him and he did the same with his eyes.
"Why did you agree to be married to him, Ruby?" He inquired.
"Because I want to marry him," I gave the obvious answer and saw how he clenched his jaw to show it had an effect on him.
How can I miss that?
I love seeing men do that but the only man I yearned to see do that is my father.
I don't think I have ever seen him clench or grit his jaw in front of me and it made him all the more mysterious to me.
