Chapter 827: Overbearing CEO Falls for the Delicate Wife (27)_1

Steve Burton's open mouth was like a photograph snapped in an instant, frozen in time.

He stared at Ruby Gregory for a full minute before slowly coming back to his senses.

What a mess! "Little coy wife"… "Little vixen"… Were these words meant to describe him?

Steve felt as though all the blood in his body was flowing backward, and without thinking, he reached out and reflexively pushed Ruby off himself.

Ruby was completely unprepared and abruptly fell onto the soft bed. With the atmosphere having shifted so quickly, she was a bit disoriented. She turned her head in astonishment to look at Steve only to see him, his chest heaving up and down, gnashing his teeth as if he wished he could tear her to pieces.

Ruby didn't understand why Steve had suddenly become so irate and unstable. She blinked innocently and asked, "Steve, what's wrong with you?"

Her words, like a heavy punch, landed squarely on his heart, causing severe internal injury, and he almost passed out from anger.
