She knew that her stiffness would displease Steve Burton later on.
And when she thought about his displeasure, she became even more nervous and scared.
In such a vicious cycle, Ruby Gregory felt that if she didn't find a way to temporarily escape from Steve, the harmony between them all these days would be destroyed!
Ruby felt Steve's hand beginning to pull down her pants, and she subconsciously shivered. In a state of desperation, she couldn't care less about anything and reached out to grab Steve's hand with her own.
Caught off guard by Ruby's sudden resistance, Steve's intense eyes locked with hers for a brief moment.
Ruby's mind raced. Her eyes darted, and she blurted out, "I, I need to use the restroom..."
As she said this, her face turned red with embarrassment.
Steve's hand remained on her abdomen, not moving away, and his gaze was still fixed on her.
Ruby grew increasingly tense and anxious.
