To the Love of My Life - Chapter 712
Chapter 712: Chapter 712: I Have Triplets (2)
After yelling, Steve Burton realized that he had been too emotional, and then looked at Ruby Gregory. After a while, he moved his lips, calmed himself down, leaned in and lowered his voice, speaking nervously, “Ruby, don’t be too sad.”
After hearing this, Ruby finally realized that Steve’s series of unusual reactions were due to his fear that she would be upset about her separation from Edric Reat.
So, he was worried about her…
Ruby couldn’t help but tug at the corner of her lips, revealing a faint smile.
Was she actually smiling? Edric had left her, even abandoning their child, yet she could still muster a smile? Was it because she was too sad, or was it due to the overwhelming shock?
Steve became even more anxious deep down, and his voice became extra cautious as he spoke, “Ruby, if you’re really upset, just cry it out. Crying will make you feel better, don’t hold it in and cause yourself problems.”
Ruby stared at Steve, who was so anxious and worried about her, and her smile deepened. She suddenly wanted to know, if Steve didn’t know that the triplets were his, would he really be willing to be with her, just like he said that night?
Ruby looked at Steve for a while, her eyes flickering slightly before she spoke, “Steve, I’m not sad, don’t I still have you?”
Steve suddenly stood still, completely stunned.
What did she say? She said she still had him? What did she mean by that? Was she accepting him and suggesting they start anew?
Had he heard her wrong?
Steve couldn’t help but clench his fist, his nails digging into his palm.
Ruby was just trying to test the waters, but she didn’t expect that after saying such words, Steve would be left speechless.
What was he trying to imply? That night, had he just been saying things without meaning them?
Ruby’s face turned slightly pale, and her eyes lowered involuntarily. She was about to open her mouth to say that it was just a casual remark, a joke, but before she could open her mouth, the man standing in front of her suddenly reached out, grabbed her and pulled her into his embrace. Staring deeply into her eyes, his gaze blazing with intensity, he excitedly asked, “Ruby, what did you just say? You still have me? Are you saying you’ll be with me?”
Steve asked several questions in a row, causing Ruby’s mind to go blank for a moment, until she finally understood what he was asking. She looked at Steve in surprise, “You don’t mind?”
“How could I mind?” Steve shook his head, his eyes bright as he gazed at her, and asked once more, “Ruby, do you really want to be with me?”
Ruby could feel her heart beating at an exceptionally fast rate, as she stared intently at Steve’s expression, continuing to ask, “Steve, you should know that I come with three kids. Are you sure you don’t care?”
“I don’t care, I don’t care! As long as you’re willing to be with me, I won’t mind even if you have ten kids. Oh, I’m wrong, the triplets aren’t a burden! They are your kids, and what’s yours is mine. I promise, I will treat them very well, so well, Ruby, you have to trust me…”
Perhaps due to being overly excited, Steve ended up saying quite a bit, even raising his hand at the end, making a swearing gesture.
