“Ruby, even though he’s my brother, in the matter between you and him, indeed, it’s my brother who went overboard.”

There was obvious sympathy in Madeleine’s tone.

This kind of sympathy, on the contrary, made Ruby Gregory feel that it was more hurtful than the hurtful words Madeleine had just said.

“Why did it suddenly happen… since you two were just very harmonious before?” Madeleine said to this point, sighed faintly, remained silent for some time, then spoke up, saying, “Ruby, actually there haven’t been any big changes in my brother these years. If there’s something specific he’s really sensitive about, it’s that he doesn’t like others, especially women, to sit in his car’s passenger seat. As long as a woman sits there, he will definitely break up with her.”

At this point, Madeleine’s tone became somewhat agitated: “Ruby, speaking of this, you have no idea. The shortest-lived girlfriend of my brother only lasted less than 10 minutes, from introduction to breakup. The reason was, when he was driving to take her to dinner, she eagerly climbed into the passenger seat of his car. As a result, he yanked her out, got in the car with a dark face, stepped on the accelerator and left, leaving the woman standing there, utterly bewildered.”

“Ninety percent of my brother’s girlfriends broke up because they touched this sensitive point of his…” Madeleine got to this point, seemingly realizing that it might not be appropriate to mention the girlfriends that Steve Burton had been seeing for these three years in front of Ruby Gregory, and hurriedly stopped herself from talking. Clearing her throat, she said: “Ruby, don’t think too much about it. As you know, my brother attends many parties, so he always needs female companions. In fact, he doesn’t care much about those women.”

“It’s okay, Madeleine. If nothing else, I’ll hang up first.”

After hanging up the phone, Ruby sat on the sofa, staring blankly for a while, then picked up a pen and added a new entry to the notepad.

Entry 1893: Steve Burton doesn’t like people sitting in his passenger seat.

After writing this sentence, Ruby put the notepad away in the dresser drawer in her bedroom and then went into the bathroom to take a shower.

Steve Burton doesn’t like women who wear heavy makeup, so Ruby applied light makeup.

Steve Burton prefers straight hair, so Ruby called for Mrs. Woods from downstairs and had her curly hair straightened with a flat iron.

Steve Burton doesn’t like strong scents and has praised Chanel No. 5 before, so Ruby sprayed on some Chanel No. 5 perfume.

Ruby looked at her reflection in the mirror, her straight hair flowing, and her face looking good. After ensuring there were no flaws, she walked towards the closet.contemporary romance

Blue is Steve Burton’s favorite color, so Ruby’s dressing room was filled with clothes for all seasons. However, these clothes had one common feature – they were all blue, differing only in shades and styles.
