Russell Henris raised his hand, rubbed his nose, and asked, “What’s going on between you and Ruby?”

Besides Ruby Gregory making Steve Burton act strangely and break norms, Russell couldn’t think of any other possibilities.

Steve Burton glanced slantingly at Russell, a hint of warning in his eyes.

Russell Henris shuddered all over, promptly raising his hand in surrender. “I’ll arrange it for you right now.”

Having said this, Russell disappeared swiftly from in front of Steve.

Steve elegantly swayed his glass of alcohol, occasionally lifting it for a sip.

He kept a close eye on Russell and his own mother.

A bit of distance separated them, the ambiance of the gathering was noisy, he had no idea what Russell said to Charlotte Madris, but Charlotte gave Russell a sweet smile, nodded slightly, and with a composed posture, followed Russell towards the rear door of the banquet hall.

Before exiting the back door, Russell made a gentlemanly gesture inviting Charlotte to proceed, then made an ‘OK’ hand sign towards Steve from a distance.

Steve glanced once and then turned his gaze away, scanning the crowd casually, downing the rest of the alcohol, handed his glass to one of the servers, and then strode towards the front door of the banquet hall.

Night had fallen deep, the room was brilliantly lit, glass windows and doors reflected like a mirror. Before heading out, Steve clearly saw his mother whispering something to a server, the same server who kept looking in his direction.

Steve hid his expression, pretending not to notice, just pushed the door and walked out naturally. He stood outside for a while before he felt someone else exit the door behind him. Glancing over, he saw it was the server who had been speaking with his mom earlier.

The server looked at him with respect, greeted him, and then appeared to nonchalantly walk downwards.

Steve, pretending to be oblivious, veered right towards the back door of the banquet hall.

His steps were unhurried, even somewhat casual.

The night was incredibly silent, he never turned back. But his innate sharpness informed him that someone was following him the entire time.

He knew it was the server, the same one who left the hotel with him. His mother’s plant.

Before Steve reached the back door, he saw from a distance, in the pavilion opposite the back door, a charming woman was standing.

With long hair and a red dress, she stood tall and beautiful.

It was Charlotte Madris, the one Russell had led out of the banquet hall.

Strolling unhurriedly, Steve walked into the pavilion. As Charlotte heard footsteps, she instinctively turned back and exclaimed, “Mr. Henris, are you back?”

Russell had brought Charlotte out less than a minute ago and he said he had something to attend to, asking her to wait here.

Thus, upon hearing the footsteps, she assumed it was Russell. But, when she turned her head and saw Steve, she realized she’d mistaken the person.

Suddenly, her face flushed red while layers of astonishment and throbbing excitement surfaced in her eyes..
