Chapitre 567: Chapter 567: Wait a little longer before giving up (7)

Just as Ruby Gregory anxiously hoped for the bus to arrive quickly, she suddenly heard a braking sound by her side. Instinctively lifting her head, she saw the car window in front of her slowly roll down, revealing Madeleine's delicate and surprised face in the driver's seat.

Ever since Ruby and Steve Burton had called off their engagement, she had been avoiding people related to Steve. Consequently, she hadn't been in touch with Madeleine for quite some time. Now, running into her unexpectedly, Ruby froze for a moment, staring at Madeleine's still beautiful face. After a while, she finally came back to her senses, curved her lips into a smile, and called out, "Madeleine."

On the day the wedding was called off, Steve had warned their friends not to disturb Ruby. Madeleine, who had always been fearful of Steve, didn't dare to act rashly but she did send Ruby a text message or make a phone call every now and then without ever receiving a reply.
