Now, even the Gregorys are involved, it’s truly a case of making things worse.
Ruby Gregory sighed softly. Even though she was tired and sleepy, her mind was still spinning non-stop. Suddenly, she remembered the words Steve Burton had left her with before he left.
“If you want to save Gregory’s Enterprises by relying on me, then think about what I really want! And what you should give me in return!”
Ruby went over these words in her mind several times, first surprised that Steve knew she wanted to save the Gregorys by relying on him. Then, her eyes sparkled with excitement, as her heart jumped wildly, even more exuberant than when she found out Steve had been helping her behind the scenes.
Steve said to think about what he wanted and what she should give him in return!
Did that mean, as long as she gave him what he wanted, he would marry her?
Ruby’s heartbeat sped up, and her hands unconsciously clenched into fists as her breathing grew rapid.
Marrying Steve was not impossible, but rather, it was the most hopeful prospect.
If that man didn’t want to marry her at all, why would he bother saying those words to her?
So, his anger and disdain towards her all this time wasn’t because of disgust, but because she never gave him what he truly wanted?
Ruby furrowed her brows slightly. But what did Steve want?
The alcohol Steve had drunk that night had mostly worn off after several hours of tossing and turning. He went to the basement, started a car, and sped out of the apartment building.
Steve didn’t know where he wanted to go, so he just casually drove through the streets. Just as he was approaching the Third Ring, he received a call from
Howard Coleman.
“Bro, are you really going to send Madeleine abroad?”
“Let Madeleine go abroad for a month.” After saying this, Steve was about to hang up the phone, but added: “No one is allowed to leak this information.”
If Madeleine doesn’t leave, where would Ruby learn her lesson? It’s important to remember that that woman had even taken the contraceptive pills he gave her without gaining any wisdom after the fact.
“Got it, got it. I’ll definitely tell everyone that Madeleine angered the big boss and got banished to live abroad forever alone,” Howard joked.
“Bullshit!” Steve cursed and heard faint singing coming through the phone. He casually asked, “Where are you?”
“At The Sapphire Bistro.” Howard answered immediately then ingratiatingly asked, “Bro, want to come over? The Sapphire Bistro got a lot of beautiful new girls today, all young and fresh.”
“Get lost, no one is as shameless as you!” Steve scolded him and hung up the phone. The car drove a little further, then he made a U-turn, heading towards
The Sapphire Bistro..
