Chapter 256: You Finally Opened Your Eyes (10)

After soaking in the hot spring for a while, it was inevitable to sweat and become dehydrated. Just as Steve Burton was about to pick up the teapot to pour water, Ruby Gregory, who was standing by his side, noticed his action and remembered his injured hand. Without any conscious thought, she quickly moved to stand in front of the stone table, picking up the teapot before he could and pouring him a cup of tea.

Ruby's series of movements happened so quickly that Steve was caught off guard, and he stared at her in surprise.

After merely three seconds, he shifted his gaze from Ruby's face, looking down at the teacup in her hand. He extended his uninjured hand, directly grabbing her hand that held the teacup, and brought it to his lips, draining the tea in one gulp.

Though the tea was completely gone, Steve showed no intention of letting go of Ruby's hand.

Ruby dared not withdraw her hand from his grip, only clenching tighter around the empty cup in her palm.
