Therefore, with an air of magnanimity, Ruby Gregory smiled slightly and was about to speak. 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. I’ve always thought that Olivia Foster was older both than Madeleine and Ruby!”

All present were astute individuals. They all understood the implication of

Steve’s words that Olivia Foster looked older than Ruby Gregory and Madeleine.

This was typical of Steve: silent until he suddenly shocked others with his words.

The atmosphere, initially filled with awkwardness, was about to be diffused by his cousin-in-law’s tactful subject-changing skills. However, his cruel, harsh words caught everyone off guard and dragged the room back into an awkward silence.

The situation was even more awkward when compared to Olivia Foster’s tone of ridiculing how everyone adored Ruby Gregory.

Ruby Gregory was about to speak, but Steve’s words, indifferent yet pointed, choked her sentence in her throat.

Though Steve’s words were not aimed at her, in fact, they were somewhat in her favor, Ruby Gregory still thought that Steve Burton’s comments were quite humiliating!

Even after his blunt insult to Olivia Foster, if Ruby Gregory continued to feign her indifferent attitude, she would only add insult to injury.

Despite wanting to add fuel to the fire and kick Olivia Foster while she was down, Ruby understood that she could not allow herself a moment of petty satisfaction in front of so many elders.

Therefore, Ruby Gregory tugged at her lips and opted to close her mouth and remain silent.

Just as Ruby Gregory thought, for a woman, the worst blow is to be told in front of many people that her looks and age do not match.

Especially since Steve Burton was the man Olivia Foster was interested in. Her heart shattered instantly with his words, her complexion turned pale and pitiful.

Steve’s cousin-in-law, who had been defending Olivia Foster, had a slight stiffness creeping into her expression. However, she was more level-headed than Olivia. Within a blink, she found a way to respond. Maintaining her previous smile, she looked at Steve and said crisely, “Steve always treats his own poorly and doesn’t offend outsiders. He knows that our Olivia is younger than Ruby, yet he insists on making such a joke.”

If previously Ruby Gregory simply felt that Steve Burton’s cousin-in-law was articulate, now she had another thought in her heart.. Steve’s cousin-in-law wasn’t just articulate; she was truly a skilled orator!
