However, Ruby Gregory’s gaze remained calm and clear, as if she hadn’t seen that man at all. She just followed Steve Burton’s side, her elegant strides brushing past the man as she left the hospital.
Howard Coleman had been waiting outside in his car. Seeing Steve Burton and Ruby Gregory come out, he immediately got out of the car, opened the door for Ruby, who smoothly bent down and slid into the car without any hesitation.
Steve also followed suit, bending over to get into the car. Howard closed the car door, got onto the driver’s seat, and started the car.
The familiar figure who had just brushed past Ruby Gregory suddenly stopped and turned around to watch the expensive car, worth more than US$1,400,000, slowly drive away from the hospital entrance.
He only turned back around to drag his luggage into the elevator after the car was long gone.
The time Ruby Gregory was discharged from the hospital coincided with the end of the workday, causing a slight traffic jam.
There wasn’t much conversation in the car. Howard was focused on the road ahead while Steve, through the rear-view mirror, was continually observing Ruby beside him.
The expression on the woman’s face was serene, as if the person they had just encountered in the hospital lobby was merely a stranger.
As they drove onto the Third Ring, Steve suddenly asked Howard, who was focusing on driving ahead, “Hey Howard, what was the name of the top student who scored the highest across the country and enrolled in our Class of 2007?”
Howard glanced at Steve in mild surprise, wondering why Steve was suddenly asking this question. Nonetheless, after thinking a bit, he honestly answered, “Edric Reat.”
The entire time Howard was saying this name, Steve’s eyes were looking at Ruby in the rearview mirror.
Ruby’s expression did not change in the slightest. Steve was silent for a while before saying, as if recalling something, “I just knew the person I saw in the hospital seemed familiar. It turns out, it was him.”
“Edric Reat?” Howard asked, smoothly turning the steering wheel.
“Yeah.” Steve answered, turned his head towards Ruby, and asked, “He was in the same class as you, wasn’t he?”
Ruby nodded at Steve, her expression as placid as ever.
“Why didn’t you say hi?”
Ruby paused for a while, calmly saying, “I haven’t seen him in so many years, I didn’t realize it was him.”
Staring at the road ahead, Howard asked astonishedly, “I remember he went to study in Costa Luna after graduation. Ruby, you also stayed there for three years. Didn’t you ever meet up as old classmates?”
Ruby shook her head naturally, “No.”
Howard looked even more surprised, “Ruby, didn’t you have any acquaintances when you were there in Costa Luna?”
Upon hearing these words, Ruby’s usual calm expression became a bit stiffened.
Her reason for going to Costa Luna was simple, just to avoid Steve Burton’s abandonment three years ago.
Seeing Ruby’s expression, Howard realized he had said something wrong; he immediately shut his mouth and didn’t utter another word.
However, Steve, as if he had heard some incredibly good news, smiled subtly. After a while, he suddenly turned to Ruby and said in an enigmatic tone, “It seems like it’s time.”
Ruby was confused by Steve’s words and let out a puzzled hum.
Steve’s lips twitched upwards, but he didn’t say anything further. Instead, he turned his face to look out at the moving scenery from the car window.
PS: That’s all for now; it continues tomorrow. Can you guess what the exciting news is?
