บท 578: Chapter 578: Wait a little longer before giving up (18)

Steve Burton gave a light nod, yet he couldn't manage to speak, to utter the word "yes".

Ruby Gregory dipped her head lower, turned around without saying a word, and headed towards the Gregory's house.

She paced quickly, and just like usual, he didn't turn away, watching her silhouette disappear into the house of the Gregorys.

About five minutes after she entered, a faint light began to emerge from the house.

This was the glow of a candle, far less bright and glaring than the lights in the Burton's house.

Steve paced two steps back and forth in front of the Gregorys' gate. After hesitating for a moment, he took a step forward and walked into the Gregory's courtyard.

Maybe it was his selfishness speaking, using a candle to prolong his time with her. Now, he was thinking again of helping her solve the electricity problem, in order to spend more time with her.

Though the additional time would be short, for him, it was incredibly precious.
