After Ruby Gregory finished speaking, fearing that Steve Burton would refuse to answer the hypothetical, she emphasized again, "Just in case."
Immediately, Ruby held her breath and stared at Steve without blinking.
As far as Steve was concerned, this was an impossibility, and he was too lazy to entertain the hypothetical.
However, faced with Ruby's gaze, he eventually compromised, imagining a simple scenario where he inadvertently ended up in bed with another woman, and she happened to become pregnant with his child...
Although he knew it was just a hypothetical, Steve found it absurd and shook his head before blurting out, "If such a situation were to happen, I would never allow that woman to give birth to the child, and even if she did, I wouldn't want it. Whether the child lived or died would have nothing to do with me."
Ruby felt as if a knife were stabbing into her heart, making her slightly dizzy. In disbelief, she whispered, "You wouldn't want it?"
