But now, if Steve Burton chose her, Aunt Burton would definitely be the first to suspect the things she and Steve did on the viewing platform!

Steve’s gaze fell on Ruby Gregory once again, filling her with an ever-increasing sense of unease.

Ruby saw Steve slowly raise the microphone to his mouth.

Ruby’s palm clenched slowly as she stared intently at Steve. The moment his mouth opened, the entire banquet hall fell deathly silent.
