Ruby stood at the door of the study, remaining silent for two seconds, before lifting her hand to lightly knock on the door. After receiving no response, she turned the knob.
The door was not locked and opened effortlessly.
Ruby saw Steve Burton sitting elegantly at the desk, facing the computer, seemingly engrossed in his paperwork.
Ruby stood at the door, watching Steve for quite a while. Steve showed no reaction, his facial expressions didn't change, let alone glance at her.
Ruby clenched her fists, mentally steeling herself before stepping into the study. Thinking that Edward Woods and Rusell Henris were downstairs, she gently closed the door behind her.
