Chapter 122 - 122: 122: Loving Her is the Perfect Pantomime (6)

Ruby burst into laughter, but she didn’t notice Steve’s silent sigh of relief as he watched her tearful smile.

Howard Coleman and Madeleine were born on the same day, but unfortunately, Madeleine was born two minutes earlier than Howard, so she was considered the older sister.

Howard and Madeleine were in the same class as Ruby Gregory.

With perfect scores in all subjects, Ruby couldn’t contain her joy and borrowed the phone in Steve’s study to call Madeleine and Howard. She proudly bragged her achievement to them.

However, Howard sneered at Ruby and said, “I don’t need Steve’s help to change my answers, I can get full marks on my own.”

The phone was on speaker, so Steve could hear the arrogance in Howard’s voice. He also noticed Ruby pouting over Howard’s disdain.

She lazily rolled over in bed, wanting to continue dreaming, but somehow, the colorful scenes of her childhood suddenly changed into black and white images.

The two people in the images were instantly enlarged and transformed into their present selves.

The look in Steve’s eyes was no longer clear and innocent like in their childhood. It was cold and filled with shattered ice that sent chills down her spine.

“Get lost, if you want to get lost!”

“Disgusting! ”

“Hypocrite!”

These cruel and hurtful words were what he hurled at her!

Ruby felt as if countless needles were ruthlessly stabbing into her body, causing her intense pain and making her tremble all over.

Ruby’s brow furrowed, and her forehead was covered in sweat. Suddenly, she bolted upright in bed..
