Chapter 842: Chapter 842 Ruby Time: The Wedding (Finale 12)_1

Howard Coleman watched as Steve Burton personally brewed tea for him, feeling unexpectedly pampered. He hurriedly stretched out his hands to receive it, having confirmed multiple times lately that he hadn’t made any mistakes. Just as his heart began to settle down, it became unsettled again. Holding the tea, he took a hard-to-swallow sip and couldn’t help but ask again, “Brother, if there’s something on your mind, just say it.”

Steve took a leisurely sip of tea, glanced at Howard twice, and then, following Howard’s cue, cut straight to the point, “How has it been after marrying Madeleine?”

Howard had been speculating about Steve’s reasons for seeking him out, with many guesses but he never expected Steve to inquire about his private life. A relaxed smile froze on Howard’s face. His grip on the teacup tightened slightly, and after a long while, he managed to force out a smile, saying, “It’s just like that, what else could it be?”

If Steve had been unsure how to broach the topic initially, he was now more relaxed as he continued pouring tea for both of them. Water flowed gently from the pot into the cups, emitting a refreshing sound, “I learned of the circumstances leading to your marriage with Madeleine through Ruby. Before you know it, you’ll have been married for almost ten months. How come, you still have no other thoughts about Madeleine at this point?”

“Why is everyone suddenly asking me if I have thoughts about Madeleine?” A memory of Anita asking him the same question at the hotel spontaneously fell from Howard’s lips.

“Who else asked you that question?”

...

Howard smiled and did not answer Steve’s question, but rather took a sip of the green tea. The taste lingered on his lips and teeth, carrying a refreshing fragrance, yet Howard’s eyes looked somewhat lost. After a pause, he turned to look blankly at Steve and honestly answered, “I don’t know.”

“Is it that you truly don’t know, or that you don’t want to let yourself know?” Steve’s words were always so piercing, causing Howard’s expression to turn solemn. After a while, he heard Steve’s voice again, “Back then, in the dead-end alley of Hora, when Ruby and Madeleine encountered danger, someone, in a frenzy, brandished a knife to stab Madeleine. You didn’t hesitate at all and stepped in to block it. Why was that?”

There were some matters Howard had never spoken of to anyone. Growing up with his four brothers, he had always regarded Steve as his faith because, no matter what happened, Steve was always the calmest and most composed among them.

The emotions between men are often understood without words, so they rarely shared deep conversations. Over the years, they mostly teased each other.

Perhaps it was the first time they sat down so peacefully to talk about their feelings, Howard thought seriously for quite a while, and then sincerely said to Steve, “Bro, to be honest, when I first hated Madeleine, it wasn’t because she broke up Anita and me, but because I couldn’t accept that someone I treated like my own sister for so many years, suddenly had to become my wife.”
