When Ruby Gregory returned from the restroom, she deliberately walked past Mr. Robbins, pretending to have a chance encounter and said, “Mr. Robbins.”
Mr. Robbins, donning a deep-red baseball cap, continually swung a golf club to warm up. Hearing his name, Mr. Robbins turned his head and glanced at Ruby Gregory. A flicker of surprise passed through his eyes. He quickly scanned through the women he knew in his mind, but still could not recall her name. He propped his golf club on the ground, removed the cap from his head, revealing his bald top, and asked, “Who are you?”
During the period when Maxwell Gregory and Mr. Robbins were on good terms in the past, Mr. Robbins often visited the Gregorys. However, after three years, it was normal for him to forget her. Ruby Gregory still wore a faint smile on her face, “Mr. Robbins. I am Ruby Gregory, my dad is Maxwell Gregory.”
Upon hearing Maxwell Gregory, the expression on Mr. Robbins’s face became somewhat stiff, his smile was nowhere near as warm as before, “So it’s Ms. Gregory.”
Ruby Gregory could discern the indifference in Mr. Robbins’s tone. She lifted the corner of her mouth slightly. Her words were neither warm nor cold, “Mr. Robbins, what a coincidence, you’re also here to play golf today.”
In recent days, Maxwell Gregory tried to contact Mr. Robbins on several occasions but was continually avoided.
When Mr. Robbins heard what Ruby had said, his intuition told him that Maxwell Gregory had sent his beautiful young daughter as a negotiator. Instantly, there was no trace of a smile on his face. His words were neutral, and he said, “What a coincidence indeed.” Without any hesitation, Mr. Robbins continued, “I have something to do, so I need to leave.”/p>
Ruby Gregory clearly saw that Mr. Robbins was trying to avoid her. Since she came today, her mindset was to ensure success. Ruby Gregory politely nodded, “Mr. Robbins, please feel free, I just saw you and wanted to say hello. I am actually accompanying…”
At this point, Ruby paused. In the past, no matter who she was with, she would only call out for Steve Burton. Since she came today to play a role, she had to make it seamless. Ruby Gregory blinked her eyes and continued, “I’m here with Steve Burton to play golf.”
Just as Ruby had anticipated, Mr. Robbins brightened at the mention of Steve
Burton, “Is Mr. Burton also here?”
This time, it was Ruby Gregory who had no interest in continuing the conversation with Mr. Robbins, “Mr. Robbins, I’m afraid Steve will be waiting, I should go find him.”
Mr. Robbins nodded. Ruby Gregory gave a faint smile to Mr. Robbins and then walked towards Madeleine.
The reason Ruby Gregory asked Madeleine to come with her was because she wanted to play golf together with Steve Burton and his group.
Before she came, Ruby had already shared her plan with Madeleine..
