Chapter 465: No Need for Nobility, Only Tactics (5)

Ruby furrowed her brows, turning her head to look at Steve's profile.

The man's expression was faint, as neon lights from the passing cars continuously cast shadows across his face. It was hard for Ruby to decipher his expression, so she could only rely on the man's calm voice: "Mrs. Taylor has something to attend to tomorrow morning, so she won't be going to the apartment. We haven't been back to the Burton Mansion in West Suburb in a while, so we will return there tonight. Uncle and Aunt Gregory probably miss you."

Steve was being considerate of Ruby with his words, but she vaguely noticed that his jawline, which was flowing like a river, seemed a little tense as he spoke.

Ruby knew this was a sign that Steve was in a bad mood.

She couldn't help but feel that the reason behind it was the rumours brought up at the class reunion about her and Edric, and that Steve was angry with her because of it.
