Chapter 142 - 142: 142: Pregnancy’s Little Thoughts

However, Ruby Gregory did not feel reassured by Steve Burton’s tender actions. On the contrary, she felt more panicked deep within her.

Ruby Gregory knew, the more composed Steve Burton was, the more dangerous and deadly he became.

She clenched her fists secretly, desperately trying to suppress her escalating heartbeat due to fear.

After a while, Steve Burton finally stopped stroking Ruby Gregory’s chin, held her face in his hands, lowered his head slightly, and moved his face closer to hers. His breath, warm against her face, carried a scorching heat, and the sound of his voice when he spoke to her was exceptionally gentle: “Are you worried about The Gregorys and want to go home?”

Since Ruby Gregory met Steve Burton, she had never heard him speak with such gentleness to anyone, regardless of whether their relationship was good or bad.

An unprecedented sense of foreboding rapidly overwhelmed Ruby Gregory. She stared into Steve Burton’s eyes, lightly nodded, and said one word: “Yes.”

Steve Burton’s expression remained unchanged. He lightly brushed his fingers against her soft cheek, and like a tape machine on replay, asked the same question in the same tone and with the same gentleness: “Are you really worried about The Gregorys and that’s why you want to go home?”

The consecutive questioning deepened Ruby Gregory’s ominous feeling, and a sense of fear enveloped her entire body. This time, she didn’t even dare to speak. She just mustered all her courage to appear calm, slightly nodding at Steve Burton.

Just as Ruby Gregory finished nodding, Steve Burton’s voice floated over: “I’ll ask you one more time, you’re sure it’s because you’re worried about The Gregorys that you’re going home…”

This time, Steve Burton didn’t wait for Ruby’s reply. He continued in one breath: “And not because you’re trying to get as far away from me as possible?”

If it weren’t for her wanting to have his child, she really would have wanted to keep as far away from him as possible.

If it wasn’t for maximizing her chances of getting pregnant, she wouldn’t have made love with him four times in just one day and night.

Indeed, she had done it enough times now, if nothing went wrong, she would definitely get pregnant, and that’s why she thought about leaving.

However… she had always hidden her intentions well, how could he possibly know what she was thinking?

Ruby Gregory shook her head and said quietly: “No.”

“No?” Steve Burton’s voice suddenly turned icy cold.. His hand gripping Ruby Gregory’s face tightened slightly, his tone carried a hint of ruthlessness: “Ruby Gregory, your skill at telling boldfaced lies with eyes wide open is really improving!”
