Chapter 810: Chapter 810: Overbearing CEO Falls for the Delicate Wife (10)_1
Steve Burton was just about to turn into the hallway leading to the restroom when he heard a familiar and heart-fluttering female voice: “Yes, indeed, I am Ruby Gregory, the one who was proposed to at the Grand Ciawell Restaurant.”
Steve’s steps involuntarily ca to a halt, and then he heard several unfamiliar female voices coming from inside.
“You look so much more beautiful in person than in the videos.”
“You’re so lucky, that proposal was so romantic, I’m dying of jealousy.”
“I’ve followed you on Twitter, can you follow back?”
Steve took a slight step forward and saw Ruby Gregory standing with three other won, studying sothing on her phone: “This is you, right? I’ve followed you.”
...
“Ms. Gregory, your watch is really beautiful, it looks like the newest limited edition from Chanel,” one of the won remarked with keen eyes upon spotting the Chanel watch studded with colored diamonds on Ruby’s fair and slender wrist.
“This one?” Ruby lifted her wrist, glanced at the watch, and spoke with an air of nonchalance, “I have two of these.”
“Isn’t this a limited edition, supposed to be the only one in the world?” another woman asked in surprise.
Cocking her head, Ruby replied matter-of-factly, “Whenever I like sothing, my husband goes out of his way to buy two of them, one to use and one to keep, in case I lose it by accident and feel heartbroken.”
“Ms. Gregory, Mr. Burton is so good to you!”
“So Mr. Burton would get you two of everything, no matter how valuable, as long as you like it?”
“Yes,” Ruby gently nodded her head as though recalling a mory, and added, “I once liked a pink diamond pendant that had just been unearthed from Gilead, a one-of-a-kind piece. My husband spent half a year’s profits from Pristine’s Enterprises, and it took another six months to mine a similar pink diamond in Gilead. He then gave two identical pendants.”
“Wow…” The three won surrounding Ruby couldn’t help but exclaim in admiration. Just as they were about to continue praising her, Steve, standing at one end of the hallway, tily interjected with a call, “Ruby.”
Ruby Gregory turned her head imdiately upon hearing Steve’s voice. She had encountered the three unfamiliar won when she ca out of the restroom.
The won hadn’t recognized her as the lead in the marriage proposal at the Grand Capital Hotel, but they were holding up their phones, examining Steve’s photos on Twitter, and murmuring, “He’s so handso, I really wish he would marry .”
“You have no idea, after seeing the god-like Steve, I feel like those TV stars are nothing. Last night, I even dread that I was sleeping with god-like Steve!”
…
Before Ruby Gregory realized she had fallen in love with Steve, many won were just as crazily obsessed with him. At that ti, she didn’t see anything wrong with such obsession, but now, having learned to love under his guidance, she felt an undeniable hint of jealousy hearing these words, even though she knew these won didn’t even recognize Steve.
Although she was not one to compete, in that mont, she still hoped to assert her own sovereignty.
So she took out her phone, cleared her throat, and pretended to be on a call. She spoke loudly into the phone, “Where at? Honestly, I had no idea Steve would suddenly propose to at the Grand Capital Hotel…”
