Lady Gregory naturally had no objections, so Madam Burton turned to Ruby Gregory: "Ruby, what do you think?"
Before Ruby had a chance to respond, Lady Gregory spoke: "Ruby, just go. You go get the marriage certificate with Steve first. You're in confinement and not supposed to casually go out. Since you have to go out to return home today, you might as well get the certificate now. Otherwise, when you get home, you'll have to spend another ten days in confinement, which will delay registering The Triplets."
"You two go with peace of mind; I and your mother will take care of The Triplets," Madam Burton said.

Ruby could confidently and decisively refuse Steve Burton, but it was not easy for her to refuse Madam Burton, especially with Lady Gregory eagerly urging her on. In the end, she reluctantly took the household register Lady Gregory had given her and went to the Civil Affairs Bureau with Steve.
