Despite her apologies, Ruby is devastated when Steph leaves claiming Ruby never cared about her.
Vulnerable, Caleb admits to Chas he can’t lose Steph again. Finding his resolve, Caleb finds Ruby trying to convince herself that Steph had a good childhood and puts his wife at ease, insisting that Steph will come around. However, there’s a sense that Ruby is still hiding something.
The next day, Caleb and Ruby are shocked to see Steph leaving the B&B with Ross, with Caleb quick to question her about Ross before making her an offer to be his partner at the Depot.
Reluctantly, Steph agrees to go for a coffee with Ruby. However, just as it looks as if they’re getting somewhere in their relationship things grind to a halt when Ruby’s father, Anthony turns up at the cafe.
Realising Steph set this up, Ruby is in disbelief as her father tries to plead his case. Wanting nothing to do with him, Ruby storms out.
Running into Caleb, Ruby begs him to take her home, but Caleb insists on having a word with Anthony himself and following a heated conversation, Caleb is struck by Anthony’s sincerity and accepts a mysterious box from him as a gift for Ruby.
Will Caleb be able to convince Ruby to listen to what her father has to say?
