Chapter 227 Priding Oneself in One's Success (1)

However, Steve Burton, who had been quietly eating his breakfast across the table, suddenly put down his spoon. Somewhat surprised, he looked at Olivia Foster, then turned to his cousin-in-law and asked innocently, "Olivia Foster is younger than Ruby Gregory? If you hadn't said, I would never have guessed.
