When she was very young, the Gregorys told her that she was to marry Steve Burton in the future, and that other than being kind to Steve, she couldn’t be kind to any other men. Even if there was intimate contact, it could only be with Steve.

At that time, she was young and ignorant and didn’t understand what these words meant. She innocently asked her mother, who told her that marrying Steve would mean living together like Mom and Dad.

Back then, Steve didn’t like to smile and always had a cold, childish expression on his face. The words he spoke were often hurtful, but Ruby Gregory didn’t think marrying him would be a terrible thing, so she firmly remembered what the Gregorys had told her.

So much so that when she entered middle school and the girls around her began to experience their first crushes and exchange love letters with boys of the same age, all she could do every day was either study tediously or pass the time by reading extracurricular books.

She truly lived her life according to the Gregorys’ instructions, with no men in her life other than Steve, a dull and monotonous existence.

She didn’t actually think her life was that pathetic or pitiful. She just thought that everyone had their own pursuits, and hers was simply to marry Steve and save the Gregory family.

So, for all these years, she had been persistently striving for this goal that had been arranged for her since she was little. freewebnove(l).com

That’s why, three years ago, when Steve slept with her and didn’t take responsibility, even giving her a resounding slap, she didn’t get discouraged. After returning to her country, she encountered many setbacks in dealing with him, but she never gave up.

After all, people must pay some price to obtain something, and she had to endure.

But in the end, she overestimated her own endurance.

When she swallowed the contraceptive pill tonight, she suddenly felt disheartened and cold.

This pursuit, which she had never thought of giving up no matter how difficult things got throughout her life, made her feel tired now.

She wanted to let it go.

Thinking about this, Ruby’s eyes welled up with tears. She turned slightly and curled up in her bed, burying her head under the covers.

The next day happened to be a weekend, with two days off in a row. Physically and mentally exhausted, Ruby hid at home and didn’t go out.

Weekends always seemed to pass so quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it was Monday and time to go to work.

Over the past two days, Ruby couldn’t help but recall the events of that night whenever she spaced out.

But time is truly a powerful thing. Though remembering it still made her upset, it wasn’t as earth-shattering as it had been at first.

Despite this, Ruby still didn’t want to face Steve..freewe(b)novel.com
