To the Love of My Life

–

After some calculations, Ruby realized it had been quite some time since she had seen Steve, sorry, no, it had been a long time since she had seen any news about Steve. However, there were a lot of news about the release of a new product from Pristine’s Enterprises, which had signed a first-tier actress for endorsement and held a game release conference in Agrabah. Those news constantly captured the public eye, one after another.

Despite her not seeing Steve, from those reports, it was clear that his business was flourishing and seemed to be thriving.

In the past few months, she had returned to The Gregorys a few times. Maxwell Gregory and Lady Gregory were somewhat disappointed in her, as they had always seen her as Steve’s wife. However, now that she was pregnant and a child was on the way, even though Maxwell Gregory and Lady Gregory were unwilling, they had to accept this. After all, no household like The Burtons would want a woman who had borne a child for another man as the lady of the house.

At first, Maxwell Gregory and Lady Gregory did not show particular concern for the child in her belly. However, as they saw her belly gradually growing, they realized that the child carried the blood of The Gregorys. Thus, they gradually began to call and check in on Ruby, even occasionally giving her some advice about what pregnant women should pay attention to.

Maxwell Gregory and Lady Gregory also suggested that she should return home and rest, looking after her unborn child. Ruby had thought about going back home, but in the end, she chose to stay. It is important for pregnant women to maintain a good mood. Living in Gregory’s mansion would, of course, offer a comfortable life, but having a small job and earning her own money in the city made her feel more contented.

When a woman realizes she is pregnant out of the blue, she naturally experiences fear and tension, but afterwards, her thoughts focus on how to be a good mother.

Ruby indeed put her heart into the child in her belly – she even enrolled in a prenatal guidance class.

Last night, Ruby had dreamt of Steve in her sleep, reliving many memories of their past, both the sad and joyful ones. As pregnant women tend to have overly sensitive emotions, she cried and laughed for a good while after waking up. Only after she had fallen back asleep and was woken up by a kick from the baby in her belly did she get up, eat something, realize that she still had one and a half hours before class, and then hurriedly leave the house.

When she walked down the stairs and saw the gloomy weather, she didn’t think much of it because Ciawell often had such a kind of weather. To save time, she headed straight to the subway station.

When she exited the subway station and was planning to transfer to the bus, a soft rain began to fall from the sky.

The subway station Ruby exited was not far from Grand Park, and the area was surrounded by high-class clubs. There were no supermarkets in sight, and the bus stop was about six or seven hundred meters away from the subway exit. Ruby didn’t want to brave the rain, so she sought shelter in a nearby coffee shop.

While Ruby was wondering how long the rain would last, a black car suddenly stopped in front of her. The car window rolled down, and through the raindrops, she saw Steve’s extraordinarily handsome face.
