Steve Burton didn't dodge, the tea trickled down his face slowly, staining his handsome pallor with a few tea leaves.
Steve didn't reach out to wipe it, still sitting upright in his seat, continuing to speak calmly, "Secondly, the triplets that Ruby Gregory gave birth to indeed are my flesh and blood. I asked the doctor; she just gave birth forty days prematurely."
"Forty days premature..." Madam Burton counted the days with her fingers: "That means she got pregnant last November? That's shortly after you and Ruby got engaged..."
After speaking, Madam Burton glanced at her husband, Steve's father.
Steve nodded, "Exactly, that month, Ruby was with me every day, which is why I was so certain that the child in her womb was definitely mine."
"Then if she was clearly carrying your child, why did she say it was someone else's?" Madam Burton was thoroughly confused.
