At this memory, Steve Burton couldn’t help but let the corners of his lips curve into a slight smile.

At that time, she was only one year old, but she already knew that if she couldn’t take what she wanted, she should destroy it!

More than twenty years have passed, and he still clearly remembers what his expression was like at that time.

He was obviously so angry that he gritted his teeth, wanting to kick the little dumpling lying on the ground, but he had to maintain his little gentleman’s demeanor and hold it in.

His face turned red with anger, as he glared at her fiercely. Yet, she seemed completely oblivious, focusing on tearing his serialized storybook.

“Ruby? Ruby?”

Suddenly, a clear and beautiful call came. Ruby Gregory immediately threw away the mess she had made of the serialized storybook and crawled towards the railing.

“Ruby, how did you crawl into the Burtons’ yard?”

“Ruby, look at you, why are you so dirty?”

Her mother scolded her with a stern face, wiped her face with a handkerchief, and then looked up to see him, standing on the other side of the railing.

Even though he was annoyed with Ruby in his heart, he did not forget his manners and immediately spoke politely, saying: “Aunt Gregory, hello.”

“Hello, Steve.” Ruby’s mother bent down and said to Ruby, “Ruby, that’s your Aunt Burton’s youngest son, call him Steve Burton.”

Ruby’s speech was not yet clear, so she couldn’t say the four-word name quickly. She had already forgotten the grudge she held against him because he ripped her serialized storybook. She stared at him with her pitch-black eyes and called out tenderly: “Brother.”

Her originally dirt-streaked face had been wiped clean by Aunt Gregory. He finally caught a clear glimpse of her cute, innocent face: round like an apple, making the nearly-four-year-old Steve have an impulse to pounce on her and take a bite.contemporary romance

After a long internal struggle, Ruby looked straight into Steve’s eyes. She hesitated before asking, “Will you keep your word?”

Still lost in his memories, Steve suddenly heard Ruby’s voice. He snapped out of his reverie but had no idea what she had just said.

Steve’s silence made it difficult for Ruby to grasp what he was thinking. With a slightly trembling voice, she said, “If I really sleep with you now, will you give me the invitation to your birthday party?”

She had no choice.

The Gregorys had placed all their bets on her, so regardless of the difficult problem Steve posed to her, all she could do was face it head-on.

Even if the problem made her feel humiliated and degraded, she had to accept it.

Steve’s body froze instantly. The tenderness and lingering sentiment that had just risen in his heart evaporated in an instant, as if he had been thrown into cold water and turned into ice..
