After Ruby Gregory sent out the message, she began to feel anxious and apprehensive. She bit her finger and stared at her phone screen for a long time, but there was no sign that Steve Burton added her. Her emotions became complicated and strange.
Was Steve taking a warm bath and not looking at his phone, or did he simply not agree to her friend request?
Ruby pondered for a while and finally put down her phone, only to find her heart more confused.
Could he really be soaking in the hot springs?
Ruby hesitated for a while, then got out of bed, changed out of her pajamas, and put on a skirt before leaving her room.
At Red Park Resort & Villas, there are two areas for hot springs. The halfway point of the mountain has open views, while the top of the mountain has private hot springs.
When Ruby used to come to the holiday villa with Steve on the 10th of every month, they would almost always go to the private hot springs.
So she was more than familiar with the private hot springs.
When Ruby left her room, she intended to relieve her restless thoughts, but by the time she came to her senses, she was already sitting on the sightseeing car 𝘧𝘳ℯ𝓮𝘸𝓮𝑏𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓁.𝘤ℴ𝘮
heading to the top of the mountain.
Ruby got off the sightseeing car and deliberately chose a path in the opposite direction of the private hot springs. However, after walking around for a while, she ended up at the entrance to the private hot springs.
The staff members at the private hot springs were still the same people from three years ago when she left.
Only a very few people could come here for a soak in the hot springs.
As a result, these staff members were more than familiar with Ruby. Seeing her, they immediately assumed she was here to see Mr. Burton and greeted her respectfully with a smile, “Ms. Gregory, are you here to see Mr. Burton?”
The question made Ruby’s face turn slightly red, and she didn’t know whether to say yes or no.
The staff member didn’t notice Ruby’s subtle changes and just wore a warm smile, making an inviting gesture, “Ms. Gregory, please follow me.”
Ruby hesitated for a moment but eventually followed the staff member toward the hot springs.
The staff member first led Ruby to the women’s changing room that she’d always used. Like before, a variety of swimsuits were arranged inside.
However, the swimsuits were not the same as those from three years ago but were replaced with new ones, their tags still uncut.
Ruby chose a dark blue swimsuit from the colorful array and entered the changing room.
The staff member tidied up the swimsuits that Ruby had picked up.
Despite the three-year gap, her actions were not the least bit rusty. In these three years, she changed the swimsuits here from time to time, as Mr. Burton had instructed.
Even though Ruby hadn’t come here for hot springs in those three years.
PS: The plot isn’t going smoothly, and I’m a bit stuck, so I wrote this late. I’ll update with more chapters about 3 or 4 in the afternoon, with a total of 12 chapters to come..
