That never-before-experienced rapid heartbeat appeared again. Ruby Gregory’s eyes dropped slightly. Unconsciously, she wanted to pull her hand out of his.
She only slightly struggled with her hand before thinking of Mr. Robbins, who was looking at her. In the end, Ruby reluctantly forced herself to stop moving.
Steve Burton thought she would find another excuse, just like before, to keep a certain distance from him. However, he didn’t expect that she only slightly moved and finally let him hold her hand obediently.
He couldn’t help but loosen his grip slightly. He saw a touch of crimson blush climb onto her cheeks, charming and lovely – nothing like the always-confident and sophisticated Ruby Gregory he had seen before.
In recent tis, she seed to have changed a lot… In the hot springs of the Red Park Resort & Villas, she dared to swat his hand away.
Steve Burton’s mood beca increasingly pleasant.
Despite the hustle and bustle of the golf course, he felt an indescribable sense of tranquility.
After a long while, Steve Burton suddenly spoke and called out her na:
“Ruby.”
Ruby… this was her nickna.
Three years ago, Steve called her by that na, never using her full na like he did now.
His voice was deep and pleasing. When he called her “Ruby,” the volu deliberately dropped, giving a lingering and intimate sense.
Her parents and Madeleine also referred to her as Ruby, and she had grown accustod to it. But never before had her na sounded so beautiful.
Ruby lifted her head and looked at Steve.
Steve stared into her glass-like eyes, a faint smile hidden in his gaze. His voice was soothing and lodious: “Lately, you’ve beco more and more sensible.” The tone of his voice was filled with praise.
All this ti since she returned to the country, all he gave her were sarcastic comnts, ruthless criticisms, and never any praise.
Ruby was caught off guard by his complint.
Steve stared at Ruby’s foolish expression, not saying anything more. He only wore a slight smile at the corner of his lips, then turned his head to watch Howard and the others play golf.
Ruby stared at Steve’s profile for a mont before finally processing what he had just said in her mind.
More sensible? He said she’s beco more sensible? Wasn’t she sensible before?
She had always been tiptoeing around him, trying to win his approval, striving to be a sensible and well-behaved woman.
Ruby’s brows furrowed slightly, her eyes filled with confusion. She was about to speak when a voice suddenly ca first: “Ms. Gregory.”
Ruby turned her head and saw Mr. Robbins, who had unknowingly co up behind her.
Steve glanced at Mr. Robbins but did not say anything..
