Chapter 787: The Most Romantic Proposal (17)

"Ruby Gregory, do you know why Steve Burton knew about you and Edric Reat going to the holiday villa?"

Ruby's movements paused for a moment.

Seated next to her, Steve Burton's expression tensed briefly before returning to his usual leisurely demeanor, taking his time to pour himself a cup of tea and slowly sipping it.

Maya Mitchell, as if looking down on Ruby's intellect, contemptuously laid out the whole story: "That's because I found a note Edric wrote to you when going through your bed, which revealed his plan to meet you at the holiday villa. I also saw you two at the train station together. Then, I bought a phone card on the overpass - the ones without real-name registration at that time - and sent a text message to Steve Burton to inform him of what I knew!"
