Chapter 587: Chapter 587: Wait a little longer before giving up (27)

After Ruby Gregory and Steve Burton met on New Year's Eve, the two of them had no interactions whatsoever.

Maxwell Gregory and Lady Gregory were busy seeing friends and relatives all day, hardly ever home. In the past, when Ruby Gregory was home for the new year, she would go out with them to visit relatives. Now that she was pregnant, and coincidentally on the first day of the Chinese New Year, a cold air mass arrived with drastically low temperatures. So, Ruby Gregory stayed in the house all day.

Staying in the house all day got rather boring, occasionally when the midday sun was good, Ruby Gregory would take a stroll in the garden.

The neighboring Burtons family was originally large, with everyone returning home for the New Year making it even livelier. Ruby Gregory would glance over into their yard during her walks in the sun, but she has never seen Steve Burton since.
