Chapter 821: Overbearing CEO Falls for the Delicate Wife (21)_1

Why go to Zhouzhuang with Edric Chen?

Steve Burton's question brought forth the sorrowful memories of Ruby Gregory's birthday four years ago. Her expression became slightly desolate, and after a long silence, she finally lowered her eyelids and, leaning against Steve Burton's warm chest, she spoke in a soft tone, "The day I went to Zhouzhuang with Edric Chen was my birthday. That day you were away on a business trip, but you still had someone send me a birthday gift. My mother was there too..."

As Ruby spoke, she thought about the ideas that The Gregorys had instilled in her since birth, that she was expected to marry Steve Burton. Her voice grew a bit tense, "As you know, from the moment I was born, The Gregorys all hoped that I would marry you. So when my mother saw the gift you sent, she insisted that I call you to say thank you."

When Ruby got to this part of her story, she looked up at Steve briefly, "But you didn't answer my call."
