Chapter 593: Wait a little longer before giving up (33)
Saying this, Lady Gregory poured tea for Russell Henris and Steve Burton. Russell thanked her.
Steve Burton, who had been silent since entering the room, only nodded politely at Lady Gregory and continued to remain silent.
Russell helped ease the atmosphere, and both Lady Gregory and Maxwell Gregory chimed in. Nonetheless, the mood was still a bit awkward.
Steve had not spoken a word since he arrived. His extraordinarily handsome face showed no particular expression, and his eyes looked at no one. Occasionally, he would stare at the teacup in front of him, seemingly lost in thought.
Ruby Gregory was also silent. She politely sat with Steve and Russell in the living room for a while before finding an excuse. She said softly, "I have work tomorrow, so I'll go pack my things and prepare to return to the city."
After receiving Lady Gregory's approval, Ruby stood up, smiled at Steve and Russell, and went upstairs.
