Chapter 636: Chapter 636: Ruby Gregory’s Confession (16)
Ruby Gregory never knew that a person’s expressions could be so rich and colorful.
She thought, if she hadn’t overheard Maya Mitchell’s conversation with her friend, she would have thought that Maya’s brilliant expressions were just a coincidence upon seeing her.
Ruby still faced Maya with the same calm demeanor as before.
In her heart, she wondered, in the past, when Maya greeted her with such a surprised tone, and she had always chatted kindly with her, was she just a ridiculous fool in Maya’s mind?
Maya Mitchell waited for a moment, seeing that Ruby Gregory didn’t speak, she slightly furrowed her brows, her smile slightly faded, and then she glanced at Ruby’s pregnant belly, surprise turning into astonishment, “Ruby? Are you pregnant?”
What’s the point of pretending…She had been stalking Ruby and Steve Burton for so long, she must have seen her big belly, why pretend to be so shocked now as if they had just met?
Ruby couldn’t help but chuckle softly, “Maya Mitchell, why did you study economics back then? Why didn’t you go to Ciawell Film Academy?”
With a distinct irony in her words, Maya’s smile vanished in an instant. She looked at Ruby with a hint of innocence in her eyes, blinked in surprise, and asked in her usual gentle tone, “Ruby, what’s wrong?”
Ruby had always thought she was good at concealing herself in front of Steve Burton, but now she realized what it meant to be outshined by meeting Maya.
Her own disguises were child’s play and would never have been exposed in front of Steve Burton every time.
Ruby chuckled twice, feeling a little too lazy to beat around the bush with Maya. She cut to the chase, “Maya Mitchell, have you been tired of following Steve and me around shopping for so long?”
Maya thought she had hidden her actions well but never expected that Ruby had discovered her long ago. Her complexion slightly altered but she managed to stabilize it quickly. She still looked puzzled, as if she didn’t understand what Ruby was talking about, and asked with a soft tone, “Ruby, I don’t understand what you’re talking about?”
“Really?” Ruby paused for a moment, and then narrated in a word-for-word manner what she had eavesdropped on in the changing room of a Japanese clothing store: “You said, Steve Burton? I’m on good terms with him…We had dinner together last night…”
As Ruby repeated Maya’s words sincerely, Maya’s face turned more and more unpleasant.
“A shameless woman who tries her best to cling to a man, why should I have to take her seriously?”
“To be honest, I’ve endured Ruby Gregory for many years. I started to hate her when we were in college.”
Maya’s face turned uglier by the second.
Can you finally no longer pretend to be friendly and intimate?
Ruby sneered: “Maya Mitchell, if it weren’t for today, for my overhearing what you had to say, I really wouldn’t have known that you’ve hated me so much since college?”
Having said that, Ruby suddenly changed her tone: “Oh, wait, I should say, I just found out that you also like Steve Burton, don’t you?”
