Chapter 492: So You Knew It All Along (2)

Translator: 549690339

Ruby Gregory knew deep down that this meal she prepared was not to please Steve Burton on behalf of her family, but simply because she wanted to make it for him.

For the first time in her life, she had the idea of cooking for a man.

Even when she was washing and cutting the vegetables, the disappointment and sadness that had surfaced over the past two days due to Steve's indifference seemed to be alleviated a great deal.

She didn't even know why, but a hint of happiness spread in her heart.

Ruby's dishes were very simple: four dishes and one soup, a balanced mix of meat and vegetables.

After cooking, instead of eating herself first, she placed the dishes on the dining table and patiently waited for Steve to return from work.

Time ticked away, and the food on the table cooled down. Ruby reheated it in the microwave, only to let it cool again. This cycle repeated four times before she finally heard movement outside the door.
