Bab 362: Chapter 362: It Seems Like the Time Has Come (2)

The car stopped at the Burtons' doorstep, and Ruby Gregory, filled with confusion, said goodbye to Steve Burton, then entered the Burton's home.

Ruby, with her mind full of questions, was puzzling over the mysterious phrase Steve casually tossed at her in the car. So much so that she didn't even respond when the servants in the courtyard greeted her in a hurry.

A servant opened the door for Ruby and called into the house, "Madam, Miss is back."

Before Ruby could even change shoes, Lady Gregory, overwhelmed with joy, ran out of the house. She took Ruby's hand with an ear-to-ear grin and said, "Ruby, Ruby, great news, monumental news!"

Ruby didn't even hear what Lady Gregory had said. She was rattled from her perplexity only by how forcefully her mother, in her excessive excitement, grabbed her hand and jolted her out of the conundrum Steve had left her in.
