To the Love of My Life-Chapter 107 - : 107 She doesn’t love me (15)

“Hello.” Ms. Annie smiled friendly at Steve Burton and clinked glasses with Ruby Gregory, drinking a sip of alcohol elegantly.

Before attending the dinner party, Maya Mitchell told Ruby a lot of precautions, which Ruby firmly kept in mind. However, she realized that the dinner party was not as complicated as she had imagined when she was actually there.

Throughout the whole dinner table, she and Ms. Annie’s assistant seemed like redundant presences. The most they did from start to finish was pour alcohol.

Ruby could understand English, and the conversation between Ms. Annie and Steve was about things unrelated to work. Steve did not speak much and would occasionally say a sentence or two; most of the time, it was Ms. Annie who spoke endlessly, talking about her recent trips, new cooperation strategies with various companies, and even recommending some delicacies and scenery to Steve.

The conversation between the two did not resemble that of business partners but old friends catching up.

Ms. Annie had a cheerful personality, and she would laugh heartily while speaking.

Perhaps because of the alcohol, her face was slightly flushed; her eyes were constantly fixed on Steve’s face and never left for even a moment. f(r)eeweb(n)ovel

At some point, Ms. Annie whispered something to her assistant, who got up, apologized to Steve and Ruby, and then left the private room.

The alcohol in front of Ms. Annie was gradually running out.

Ruby stood up to pour more alcohol, but Ms. Annie stopped her by holding down the wine bottle on the table, then turned to Ruby with a smile and said: “Ms. Gregory, I’m sorry, but I have some matters to discuss with Mr. Burton privately. Would you mind giving us some space?”

Ruby subconsciously looked at Steve.

Steve showed no reaction on his face. Ruby hesitated for a moment, then nodded at Ms. Annie, took her cell phone, and left the private room.

With two fewer people in the private room, it became somewhat quiet.

Ms. Annie picked up the wine bottle, filled both her and Steve’s glasses, and then raised her own, clinking it lightly with Steve’s. She threw her head back, drank the alcohol in one gulp, and then said: “Steve, it’s been so long. You’ve become even more charming than before.”

Steve remained calm in the face of such praise.

“Steve, I originally only planned to visit Shanghai in China, but I specifically flew to Ciawell to see you. I’m going back to Lilliput tomorrow,” Ms. Annie took another sip of alcohol and continued, “Steve, you know I admire you. This time, I don’t want to leave disappointed like before..”
