Translator: 549690339

Upon hearing Steve Burton's words, Ruby Gregory suddenly looked up, instinctively glancing at Madeleine.

Madeleine's eyebrows furrowed as well. What did her brother mean by saying that? Could he know about the little tricks she and Ruby Gregory played this afternoon?

Ruby had the same thought, and her heart grew more and more uneasy. She lowered her eyes, feeling an increasingly ominous premonition.

"Why aren't you saying anything?" Steve Burton chuckled lightly, and his voice sounded like icy snow that never melts, "Do I need to make a call to Mr. Robbins and have him come over before you know how to speak up?"

If Ruby Gregory and Madeleine had only been doubtful before, now, after hearing Steve Burton's words, they were certain: he knew.

Ruby's hand clutched into a fist without her realizing it. In her mind, she wondered how Steve Burton found out. She instinctively lifted her head to see the darkness on Steve's face, akin to the gloom that precedes a storm.
