Chapter 174: Chapter 174: Crying herself into unconsciousness (20)
Translator: 549690339
Steve stood there for a long time before he finally averted his eyes and took out his phone, calling Madeleine and then hanging up.
He didn’t want to accompany her, but he couldn’t just leave her alone in the hospital.
Madeleine, who had a good relationship with her, was the most suitable choice, but she was abroad. The only thing he could do was to ask Madeleine to call the Gregorys and inform someone from the family to come to the hospital.
After putting away his phone, Steve noticed streaks of blood on it as he realized there were several shards of glass in his palm.
As if he didn’t feel any pain, Steve extended his hand and pulled the shards out one by one, drops of bright red blood dripping onto the floor from his fingers.
The person who arrived at the hospital was Lady Gregory.
Seeing Steve standing in the corridor, Lady Gregory paused slightly before a flicker of surprise appeared in her eyes, “Steve, why don’t you go inside?”
Steve hid his injured hand behind his back and politely said to Lady Gregory, “I have some matters at work, I’ll leave her in your care.”
Lady Gregory, who had originally planned to leave after seeing Ruby and give the space to the couple, felt a bit regretful but still said with a smile, “It’s okay, you go ahead with your work, I’ll take care of things here.”
Steve nodded slightly, said goodbye, and left.
Ruby just blurted out that someone from the Gregorys was coming, trying to deceive Steve. But she didn’t expect that someone from the family would really come.
When Ruby saw Lady Gregory, she instinctively said, “Mom, what brings you here?”
“Madeleine called me and said you were injured and in the hospital.” Madeleine?
How could Madeleine, who was abroad, know about her injury?
As the doubt in Ruby’s heart had not yet settled, Lady Gregory asked worriedly, “Ruby, did you have a disagreement with Steve?”
Did her mother know something?
Ruby’s expression faltered for a moment.
“When I arrived just now, I saw Steve standing outside the door, and his expression did not look very good.”
Upon hearing this, Ruby instantly understood that it must have been Steve who asked Madeleine to call the Gregorys.
Immediately, Ruby’s brows furrowed slightly. Hadn’t Steve already left for quite a while?
Had he been standing in the corridor all this time without leaving?
“Ruby, Steve has been pampered since he was young, and so many people have catered to him. He’s developed a bit of a young master’s temperament. Sometimes, you should be more accommodating to him and try not to upset him all the time.”
Ruby’s emotions, which had been a bit chaotic because Steve had not left, became melancholic when she heard Lady Gregory’s words.
She had heard these words for many years now..
