Mr. Robbins’ words seemed to be aimed at both Ruby Gregory and Steve Burton, hinting that he hoped Steve would take good care of Ruby as a favor to the Gregorys, his business partners.

Understanding the implications, Ruby’s felt relieved that her goal had been achieved and her nervousness dissipated. She curved her lips: “Thank you for your concern, Mr. Robbins, my dad is doing well.”

In a great mood, Mr. Robbins turned to Steve and said: “It’s been a real pleasure playing golf today, and I’m glad I bumped into Ms. Gregory. If not for her, I wouldn’t have known that you were here, and who knows when we’d have the chance to meet again.”

Ruby met Mr. Robbins? Told him she was on the golf course as well?

A hint of contemplation crossed Steve’s eyes, but he quickly regained his composure and nodded politely at Mr. Robbins.

Before leaving, Mr. Robbins didn’t forget to build rapport, saying: “Mr. Burton,

I hope we’ll have the chance to compare our golf skills in the future.”

Steve only pressed his lips and shook hands with Mr. Robbins without saying a word.

After Mr. Robbins left, Steve turned to look at Ruby, a trace of inquiry in his gaze.

Ruby hadn’t anticipated that Mr. Robbins’ words would arouse suspicion in Steve’s heart, and her face still held a shallow smile.

Many doubts floated through Steve’s mind.

Was Ruby’s sudden appearance at the golf course today coincidental or on purpose?

She and Madeleine, being two girls, shouldn’t be interested in the gentlemanly sport of golf, could it be that…

At this point, Steve didn’t want to think any further.

He was afraid of finding disappointment through further analysis. But despite that, his intuition told him that just now, all those beautiful moments were another fleeting deception.

Ruby taking the initiative to talk to him, Ruby struggling when he held her and then giving up, Ruby volunteering to apply medicine for him…

It was just like when she had brought him late-night snacks when he was working overtime, her kindness towards him was eventually just to have a child.

Steve’s heart began to churn, and his hand clenched into a tight fist.

Gradually, Ruby noticed that there was something off about Steve’s gaze, and she put away her smile, raised her head, and looked at him with clear, crystal-like eyes.

Looking at Ruby, from her eyebrows to her eyes, and then to her pale pink lips, the emotions she displayed on her face deceived him time and time again.

He felt the waves in his chest rolling more fiercely, trying hard to suppress his anger.

Even though some beautiful things may be brief and deceive him, they still make him want to work harder to maintain them just a little longer..
