At six o’clock in the morning on the twentieth, Ruby Gregory was woken up by the alarm clock. She drowsily raised her hand to turn off the alarm, then reached out from the pillow, grabbed the thermometer and placed it under her armpit.
About five minutes later, Ruby took out the thermometer, opened her eyes, and looked at it. Then she suddenly sat up in bed, looked carefully again, picked up her phone to record the body temperature curve. She found that her body temperature was 0.6 degrees Celsius lower than yesterday.
To be on the safe side, Ruby shook the thermometer and placed it under her armpit again. Another five minutes later, she took it out, and it was still 0.6 degrees Celsius lower than normal body temperature.
As she held the thermometer, Ruby suddenly became tense.
Tonight, tonight, she must have sex with Steve Burton because tonight, her pregnancy rate would be at its highest.
But how could she have sex with Steve tonight?
Usually, Ruby would continue to sleep after recording her temperature, but today, she didn’t feel sleepy at all.
She hugged the quilt, bit her finger, and frowned, thinking for a long time, until Lady Gregory called her for breakfast, she then came to her senses, washed up, and went downstairs.
During breakfast, Ruby was still thinking about tonight’s problem between her and Steve. Halfway through, she suddenly put down her chopsticks, raised her head, looked at Lady Gregory, and asked, “Mom, are you busy this afternoon?” “What’s the matter?”
“Steve used to come to our house for dinner a lot, and he especially liked some of the dishes you made.”
Maxwell Gregory’s eyes brightened slightly upon hearing this: “That’s true. Since Ruby returned to China, Steve hasn’t come to our house for dinner. Is he coming tonight?”
Ruby shook her head: “No, he’s been working really late these days, and I was thinking of asking mom to prepare some food for his supper.”
Creating opportunities for the two of them to be alone together was the only hope for something else to happen.
Ruby didn’t know if she could succeed, but with Steve’s aversion towards her, getting pregnant as soon as possible was the only way left for her now.
For the sake of the Gregorys and for her own goal of being told to marry Steve, she could only make the greatest effort and give it a shot.
During the day, Ruby deliberately left her work undone, not starting it until 6 PM. After work, she started dealing with the reports and materials she was responsible for.
By around 6:30, half of the top floor employees had already left. At seven o’clock, the top floor office became somewhat quiet..
