To the Love of My Life - Chapter 629

Chapter 629: Chapter 629: Ruby Gregory’s Confession (9)
 

Ruby Gregory carefully felt her belly, responding to Steve Burton’s question, “No.”

Fearing that Steve wouldn’t believe her, Ruby said again, “Really, there isn’t.”

Steve continued to give Ruby a few more reminders before hanging up.

–

The Sapphire Bistro wasn’t far from the mall where Ruby was. When Steve said he’d arrive in two minutes, he actually only took fifteen to reach the mall.

Steve didn’t even bother to find a parking spot, randomly parking on the side of the road before quickly running into the mall and heading straight to the third floor.

Steve frantically searched the third floor and then saw Ruby standing at the entrance of a Japanese clothing store diagonally across the floor.

Steve hesitated for a moment, then quickly walked towards her. He was moving so fast that he almost collided with someone on the way, not even having time to stop, offering a hurried “Sorry” as he ran towards Ruby.

When Ruby saw Steve, he was only ten meters away from her. He slowed down a bit and stopped in front of her in just a few steps. Slightly breathless from running, he looked at her with worried eyes, took a quick breath and immediately asked, “Ruby, are you okay?”

Without waiting for Ruby’s reply, Steve grabbed her arm and looked her up and down.

By the time Ruby hung up the phone, her anger had mostly dissipated. Now, seeing Steve’s hurried appearance, she felt that she overreacted and was a bit stubborn. She stared at Steve, shook her head in response to his worried look, then lowered her head, pulled a wet wipe from her bag, and wiped the sweat on his face.

Steve’s expression flashed surprise for a moment, but his eyes were still intently observing Ruby.

Steve looked at her for a while, not seeing any signs of upset. He frowned, still worried about the distressed tone she had over the phone, “Are you feeling bad?”

Ruby shook her head, softly smiled at Steve, and said, “No.”

Pausing briefly, Ruby said with a hint of coquetry, “I just tried on a dress and couldn’t fit into it, felt a bit sad.”

Steve could tell Ruby was lying, but he wouldn’t force her to tell the truth. Pretending to believe her, he reached out, tousled her hair, and said, “It’s okay. We can buy it now and keep it for later.”

Ruby was about to shake her head in refusal when she saw Maya Mitchell coming out of the store across the street, with a tall woman by her side carrying several bags.

Didn’t Maya like Steve?

She was able to say that she and Steve were close, and that hurt her feelings!

So now, she could have Steve accompany her shopping, strike back, and hurt Maya’s feelings too!

Ruby’s eyes rolled, and the refusal on her lips vanished as she swallowed it down. Instead, she gently nodded her head and obediently said, “Okay.”
