With that, Steve Burton reached out and grabbed the cooperation proposal on the table, quickly tearing it into pieces: “If there’s a next time, Olivia Foster, I will make sure to obliterate you and the entire Foster Enterprises behind you, so that you can never recover!”
After finishing his words, Steve threw the torn contract at Olivia’s face forcefully.
Pieces of paper fluttered and filled half of the room.
Steve didn’t even look at Mr. Foster and Olivia sitting in front of him, grabbed the car keys on the table, and headed for the door.
Indeed, as Rusell Henris and Howard Coleman had thought, he couldn’t take any reckless actions against Foster Enterprises, as it would only speed up the division of the Burtons.
However, this didn’t mean that he had to let go of this matter easily.
He might not be able to take down Foster Enterprises, but he could disgust them. They hated Gregory’s Enterprises, right? He was determined to give them what they wanted most to Gregory’s Enterprises instead.
It wasn’t until Steve reached the entrance of the room that Mr. Foster suddenly snapped back to reality. He stood up without thinking and angrily slapped Olivia. He originally wanted to say: I told you to keep your composure and not to do anything reckless to Ruby, so as not to ruin things.
However, he remembered that Steve hadn’t left yet, and saying this would imply that they indeed had intentions to harm Ruby. As a result, he opened his mouth and had no choice but to swallow his saliva, suppressing the words that were about to come out, and only said: “What were you thinking, doing something like this!”
Olivia was completely terrified by Steve’s actions, and now she was slapped by her father again. She subconsciously raised her hand to cover her face, her eyes instantly filling with tears: “I wasn’t going to do anything to Ruby, I didn’t want to hurt her, I wanted to deal with Maya Mitchell, it was Maya… How did things turn out like this?”
At the door, when Steve heard Olivia’s words, he paused for a moment and then strode away.

On his way back to the hospital, Steve received a call from Howard telling him that Ruby had woken up.
Steve simply responded “Mhmm,” but the subtle warmth in his eyes and brows showed that he was happy to have Ruby back. He couldn’t help but step on the gas pedal a little harder.
Since Ruby had been unconscious for so long without eating, Rusell immediately ordered the hospital to make porridge when she woke up.
When Steve arrived, the nurse had just brought the porridge into the ward and was about to move the dining table to Ruby’s bedside.
“Brother.” Edward Woods greeted Steve as he entered the room, then excitedly asked, “Ruby’s awake?”
Steve didn’t say anything, just glanced at the bed, took off his coat, pulled off his tie, and unbuttoned his shirt cuffs, rolling up his sleeves as he approached Ruby’s bedside.
Ruby had been getting along well with Steve lately, but she still felt nervous whenever she saw him. As he came closer, her heart inexplicably tightened.
Seeing the mobile dining table the nurse had brought in, Steve frowned and then sat down on the edge of the bed.
Ruby’s heart tensed up to its limit.
Steve reached out to take the porridge from the nurse and motioned to the mobile dining table: “Get this out of here.”
Then, he stirred the porridge in the bowl with a spoon, scooped a spoonful, cooled it a little by dangling it next to his mouth, and brought it to Ruby’s lips.
