Just moments ago, the man’s expression had been light and breezy, but now it turned dark and sinister in an instant. The tone he used was especially harsh and scornful, “I’m really curious, how could Ruby Gregory bear to touch a face like yours? Isn’t she afraid of dirtying her hands?”
For a woman, nothing is more important than her appearance.
Being despised for her face is undoubtedly the greatest blow to a woman.
And Steve Burton is the man Olivia Foster loves the most. In his every word and phrase, he didn’t bother to hide his disgust for Olivia’s face.
As a result, the impact instantly magnified tenfold, making Olivia feel as if the sky had come crashing down on her.
Staring at Steve’s unrealistically handsome face, Olivia was dumbfounded for two minutes before finally blinking her eyes and uttering, “Mr. Burton.” As Olivia called his name, tears streamed down her face.
Even if her initial mistake with Ruby lay with her, Steve didn’t know that, and from her words, it seemed that Ruby was even more in the wrong.
Moreover, it was wrong for Ruby to hit someone in the first place. Why didn’t Steve have any reaction and just reprimanded her directly?
When Olivia was slapped twice by Ruby in the afternoon, she felt aggrieved, but it wasn’t earth-shattering. However, now she felt like Dou E, bearing the grievances of the world, with a chilling snowstorm descending in her heart.
As if defending herself, Olivia responded with a hint of resentment, “Ruby was the one who hit me, Ruby was the one who provoked me first. Mr. Burton, if you handle it like this, aren’t you just indulging her to act even more recklessly? This is unfair.”
Steve looked at Olivia’s indignant expression as if hearing a particularly amusing joke and chuckled softly twice.
Reckless?
He truly wished that Ruby would act recklessly in front of him, even just a little bit, and he would be satisfied.
Not the current cautious and restrained behavior!
Steve’s laughter was low-pitched and slow, even carrying a tad bit of mellifluousness.
However, for some reason, it made Olivia’s heart feel a sense of danger as it landed in her ears.
Olivia, who had been initially neither arrogant nor obsequious, blinked while looking straight into Steve’s eyes.
Suddenly, Steve stopped laughing, stared at Olivia for two seconds, and then spoke slowly in his usual melodious tone with a hint of his signature mockery, “Olivia Foster, I’ve seen those who are spoiled and arrogant, but never have I seen someone like you, who possesses no favor yet still acts so arrogantly!”
