In tonight’s Emmerdale episode, Ruby Fox-Miligan (Beth Cordingly) went to the hospital to visit her mother and was informed that she had passed away.
Actually, it was yesterday that Caleb (William Ash) paid Helen (Sharon Maughan) a visit. Helen had attempted to pay Caleb money to leave Ruby, and he had termed her “poisonous.” Ruby was not going to go anywhere near her mother in Caleb’s eyes.
In these sequences, Caleb saw a chance. He promised Helen that he would attempt to get Ruby to come see her if she gave him £100,000.
Unfortunately (or fortunately? We’re not actually quite sure) Caleb’s idea didn’t go quite according to plan. During tonight’s episode of the ITV soap, Ruby visited the hospital on her own after Helen gave her number to a nurse.
The nurse sadly told Ruby that her mum had died around 20 minutes ago. While Ruby wasn’t looking forward to seeing Helen, she really didn’t expect to be told she could’ve had a conversation with her had she been just a few minutes earlier.
As Ruby made her way into the ward room, Caleb loomed outside. Ruby spoke to her mum and couldn’t understand why she requested to see her after so long.
Returning home, a downbeat and deflated Ruby told Caleb that she had been at the hospital. Caleb took the approach of playing dumb as Ruby updated him, thinking this was for the best.
Despite the cold persona she has, it was clear Helen’s sudden death had impacted her. Ruby had so many questions for her mum regarding their past and her decision to contact her – and she sadly wasn’t ever going to get the answers.
As Ruby reached for a drink, Caleb was seen receiving a notification on his phone. His bank account confirmed that Helen managed to transfer him the £100k before her death, meaning she was quite desperate to see Ruby after all.
Caleb – unsurprisingly – has found himself in another difficult situation. Does he tell Ruby about the money and visiting Helen, or keep his involvement quiet?
