Chapter 523: So You Knew It All Along (33)

Ruby Gregory uttered these words slowly, as if she was reading a book, pausing after each word, enunciating clearly. In the originally quiet study room, her words slowly reached Steve Burton's ears.

Steve Burton maintained his previous demeanor while looking at her, his gaze and expression both as tranquil and indifferent as always. He stared straight at Ruby, not saying anything for a while.

Time seemed to stand still at that moment, and the breaths of Steve and Ruby seemed to disappear.

One sitting, one standing, both staring into each other's eyes.

It was not known how long passed before Steve lightly blinked his eyes, his expression unchanged, and asked flatly, "What did you say?"

Ruby's lips were tightly pursed, slightly pale. She stared into Steve's eyes without any hesitation. After a long pause, she blinked her eyes gently, then repeated her previous words with a soft, smiling expression: "Steve, let's cancel our engagement."

Ultimately, she didn't want him anymore.
