“Happy birthday, Steve,” Olivia Foster said, standing in an eye-catching red long dress in front of Steve Burton, raising her glass to him. Her glitzy, well-manicured nails reflecting dazzling light under the crystal chandelier.

Steve glanced at Ruby Gregory. The woman stood graciously in place, without any signs of displeasure or loss over being outperformed by Olivia Foster.

Steve slightly lowered his eyes, then turned his head toward Olivia Foster, offering a faint smile as he clinked his glass against hers.

After their toast, Olivia Foster handed over the gift she had prepared in

advance.

“Thank you,” Steve expressed his gratitude as he took the gift, subtly casting a sidelong glance at Ruby. Seeing her composed face, he hesitated for two seconds before handing the gift to Edward Woods.

This was the first gift from a wealthy heiress of the evening that Steve had given to Edward Woods.

It seemed Olivia Foster held a special place in Steve’s heart.

Ruby blinked slightly, pushing down the dull feeling in her heart. After toasting and sipping her drink with Steve, she extended her own prepared gift in front of him, “Happy birthday, Mr. Burton.”

Steve, time…

When did her address for him turn into such distant terms such as Mr. Burton?

Steve gazed at Ruby’s attractive smile, taking a while to show no intention of accepting the gift.

The gift was not heavy, but as Steve hesitated to take it, Ruby gradually felt a sense of heaviness in her wrist.

“What’s going on? Why isn’t Mr. Burton accepting the gift?”

“Who is this woman?”

“The daughter of the Gregorys, Ruby Gregory.”

“So it’s her; I heard she used to have a good relationship with Mr. Burton.”

“Didn’t she go to Costa Luna afterwards?”

Because of Steve’s pause, people began whispering discussions.

Ruby could only force herself to hold the gift package tighter, causing the outer wrapping paper to wrinkle somewhat.

Even though Madeleine had a soft spot for Ruby in her heart, she didn’t dare to upset Steve; instead, she gave a sign to Edward Woods.

Even if she didn’t know where Ruby had offended Steve, Madeleine knew, without a doubt, that he would treasure Ruby’s birthday gift.

These people had grown up together since childhood, understanding each other’s intentions through actions and glances. Therefore, Edward Woods immediately took two steps forward, thanking Ruby on behalf of Steve, ready to accept the gift.

But Steve suddenly reached out to snatch the gift from Ruby’s hand, handing it directly to Rusell Henris. Ruby’s gift was then lost amongst many other lesser considered presents..
