Chapter 438: Chapter 438: Don’t Force It If You Don’t Want To (8)
In the afternoon when she returned to the company, Steve Burton was the same as he had been in the morning, completely ignoring Ruby Gregory’s presence.

After work, Ruby waits for Steve to come out of his office before she packs up her things and leaves with him.

Steve treats Ruby as if she’s invisible, entering the elevator, exiting the elevator, then walking to his car, opening the door, sitting down, starting the engine, and driving away in a puff of smoke.

Ruby quickly climbs into her own car, starts it, and follows him.

Both cars, one after the other, leave the company and head back to the apartment.

Steve arrives at the elevator two minutes before Ruby, and by the time she parks, he’s already waiting for it.

Ruby quickly parks her car, unbuckles her seatbelt, grabs her bag, gets out, and runs towards the elevator, but as soon as she gets halfway there, the elevator doors open and Steve steps inside without pause, ignoring her as he goes straight up.

When Ruby arrives back at the apartment using another elevator, Steve is already gone from the living room, and only his shoes in the foyer area prove that he’s home.

Mrs. Taylor has already returned to the Burtons’ Mansion, but she’s prepared dinner and left it in the warmer.

Ruby takes out all the dishes one by one, sets them on the table, and then runs upstairs.

Steve has just finished taking a shower and steps out of the bathroom, ignoring Ruby calling him for dinner, and continues drying his hair, then goes to the changing room to change into casual clothes, only then does he go downstairs and head to the dining room.

Steve silently and quickly finishes his dinner, not caring that Ruby is only halfway through her meal, then immediately pushes away his chair and heads to the study on the second floor.

Ruby pouts, continues to eat her dinner at a leisurely pace, cleans up the table, then walks several laps in the living room to help digest her food, before finally sitting down to watch TV.

It’s quickly eleven o’clock at night, and Steve still hasn’t come out of the study.

Is he really going to ignore her completely?

Ruby tilts her head, thinks for a while, and then goes to make a cup of coffee, then carries it upstairs.

Ruby arrives at the study door, knocks on it, gets no response, tries turning the handle to find it locked from the inside, then, puffing out her cheeks, reconsiders, goes back to the bedroom, rummages through the bedside table for the key, returns to the study door, unlocks it, and walks in with the coffee.

Steve acts like he doesn’t hear the commotion Ruby makes, remaining still in his seat at the desk, staring intently at the computer screen.

Ruby walks up to the desk and puts the coffee next to Steve’s hand, “Have some coffee.”

Steve doesn’t even look up, just stares at the computer screen.

Ruby scowls at Steve for a while and then speaks, “The coffee won’t be good once it’s cold.”

Steve raises his hand and types a few lines on the keyboard.

“If you don’t want coffee, should I make you some tea?”

Feeling that Ruby is a bit noisy, Steve takes a pair of headphones from nearby and plugs them into his ears.

Ruby’s eyes open wide as she says, “Hey,” but the man remains unmoved.

Ruby frowns and then raises her hand, closing the laptop forcefully.
