To the Love of My Life

Although she had been taking a lot of supplements during that time, her weight had actually dropped by ten pounds.

Fortunately, her morning sickness did not last long. She persisted in trying to keep her mood relaxed for the sake of the child in her belly. As the days went by, her life gradually improved, as did her sleep quality.

Usually at this time, she would be asleep. But today, she couldn’t understand why – she had no hint of sleepiness. Her mind was a mess, only thinking about recent events.

A month ago, she woke up in the hospital, and after a medical examination found her body was fine, she left.

She did not leave Ciawell, but checked into a hotel instead.

The next day was her engagement to Steve. If Steve didn’t break off the engagement, even if she fled to the ends of the earth, he would still bring her back. So, she originally planned to use Edric Reat to make Steve break the engagement. But she didn’t expect that, from the morning of the next day, she began waiting anxiously. In the end, at noon, she saw a WhatsApp Status by someone who had received her and Steve’s engagement invitations, saying that Steve had cancelled the wedding.

That day, she received many missed calls, the most from Madeleine. She waited and waited, but never received a call from her own parents.

The cancellation of the engagement happened too abruptly, leaving everyone feeling powerless. The situation was even worse for the good families of Burton and Gregory.

Maxwell Gregory’s health had never fully recovered, so on that day when he received the news, he was directly hospitalized.

Ruby learned about this news from a text message sent by Madeleine two days later.

From childhood until now, she had always been a good daughter who obeyed her parents without rebelling. And her only rebellion was this time.

She thought that Maxwell Gregory and Lady Gregory, who had held great hopes for her since childhood, must be truly disappointed in her this time, right?

Otherwise, why would her biological father be hospitalized without her knowledge?

Ruby wasn’t without remorse, but after feeling sorry, she secretly went to the hospital to see her father. After learning that her father was out of danger, she finally felt relieved.

She had read in the newspaper that Maxwell Gregory’s health had deteriorated and he had no energy to manage the company. As a result, he had proposed selling the company.

When she saw the news, she couldn’t help but feel disappointed. Once, she had wholeheartedly wanted to lead Gregory’s Enterprises to success, but in the end, it was just a fleeting dream.

Later, she also learned that Pristine’s Enterprises had acquired Gregory’s Enterprises and given Maxwell Gregory a 30% stake, making him the second largest shareholder after Steve Burton. They had retained the name of Gregory’s Enterprises as well.
