People who are attractive are hard to take your eyes off.
Steve Burton seemed to sense someone was staring at him. When he looked up, his gaze met Ruby Gregory’s.
Ruby didn’t realize the man in front of her was looking back at her, still lost in their gaze, staring intently at Steve.
Steve hadn’t expected Ruby to be looking at him. He was slightly taken aback, then gently blinked his eyes, finding her gaze softly falling on his face like water. He couldn’t help but let their gazes intertwine…
Olivia Foster finally managed to stop crying. While wiping the corner of her eyes with a tissue, she coincidentally noticed Steve and Ruby gazing at each
other.
Both of their faces had a layer of soft affection, as if no one else in the room existed.
Thinking about what Steve had just said to her, and seeing Steve’s gaze at Ruby now, Olivia’s hard-won calm emotions started to waver again.
Last night, she had to beg her cousin for a long time before convincing her to bring her to have breakfast with Steve today.
She got up before dawn to shower, try on clothes, and put on makeup, all in hopes of leaving a good impression on Steve during their breakfast together.
But she didn’t expect that Ruby would also come to the restaurant with Madeleine, easily capturing everyone’s attention, and causing Steve to say those serious words to her because of Ruby!
The more Olivia thought about it, the more unbalanced she felt.
Indeed, she wasn’t as beautiful as Ruby, but aside from that, she had many advantages over Ruby.
Olivia couldn’t stand the dazzling appearance of Ruby at this moment and her own disheveled, tearful state.
Olivia looked down, staring at her plate while thinking. Last night she wanted to tell Aunt Burton that it was Ruby who had an intimate encounter with Steve in the viewing platform, but she didn’t. In the end, aggravated, she told the gossipy Charlotte Madris instead.
At that time, she thought that if she couldn’t expose Ruby’s scandal in front of Aunt Burton, she would make sure all the ladies in the capital city knew what kind of woman Ruby was!
But now, with all the key people from Pristine’s Enterprises present, if she were to expose Ruby’s shameless seduction of Steve on the viewing platform last night, she wondered whether Ruby could still look at Steve with such soft, tender eyes.
Thinking this, Olivia’s long eyelashes shimmered gently, she finally looked up at Aunt Burton and spoke with a slightly hoarse voice due to crying, “Aunt
Burton, do you remember at the banquet last night I was looking for you?”
