Ruby Gregory subconsciously wanted to grasp sothing underneath her, but the real leather sofa, no matter how hard she tried, resisted her grip, leaving her to ball her hands into fists.
Her body involuntarily beca taut.
Seeing her rigidness, Steve Burton could not help but exert more pressure, his words still echoing with monuntal anger: “Ruby Gregory, who do you think you are, having the audacity to bargain with ! Moreover, does Madeleine need you to plead for her?”
As Ruby tried to ignore her bodily pain, upon hearing Steve’s words, her mind began to furiously analyze their aning.
Apparently, his anger stemd from her thoughtless attempt to intercede on Madeleine’s behalf.
Indeed, he was right. Madeleine, to him, was akin to a sister, even without the bonds of blood, and shared a bond as close as kin. Madeleine didn’t need her to plead for him.
His anger was montary, and his scolding of Madeleine insignificant—who would take such things to heart?
Not like her… once upon a ti, she also thought she was like Madeleine, a sister he would protect and cherish. When she was young, she often called him “Brother Steve”. Madeleine, noticing his kindness towards her, would playfully complain of his favoritism: “Big brother is always biased towards Ruby!” Back then, she believed that she was the most favored one in Steve’s heart.
Now, looking back, all these were just her wishful thoughts.
“Or do you just want to stay away from ?” After Steve asked this question, his movents beca even wilder, as if he wanted to vent all his anger on Ruby.
Studying abroad… her proposal for Madeleine to study abroad ws just her innermost desire to get away!
Without the Gregorys, she wouldn’t co back from Costa Luna. Her kindness and efforts to please him were all for the sake of the Gregorys.
No one knew how he was intoxicated with her kindness towards him. Every ti she showed kindness to him, he felt a fleeting joy and happiness. But in the end, he discovered it was all a deception.
Ti and ti again, he never learned his lesson from her.
Because he always fantasized that her kindness to him ca from her heart.
But, that never happened.
The more Steve thought about it, the angrier he beca, and his strength increased.
The pain stretched ti, rendering it unbearably long.
Just when Ruby slowly began to lose consciousness, Steve suddenly moved away from her and headed upstairs.
Steve took a bath, washing off all scent of Ruby from his body, changed his clothes, and began walking down the stairs.
