Substitute Wife For The Blind CEO
Chapter 33
Chapter 33: Mr Observant
The night had fallen gently over the Winters estate, wrapping the vast house in soft shadows and silence.
The sky outside was a velvety blanket of midnight blue, dotted with stars that twinkled faintly like whispers of forgotten stories.
Inside the house, the mood was quieter still. Stefan was in their bedroom, seated on the edge of the bed, his fingers wrapped loosely around a mug of warm tea Martin had handed him a while ago.
He tilted his head slightly toward the window, listening to the sound of wind brushing against the trees. fre.ewebnov el.com
Ruby wasn’t there yet and he wondered where she was or what she was doing.
After a while, her footsteps echoed lightly down the hall, but instead of entering the bedroom, she paused at a different door and gently knocked before opening the door.
The door creaked open, revealing Rayna sitting on the edge of the bed, flipping through a magazine absentmindedly. She looked up, and a small smile curved her lips.
"You’re not sleeping?" Ruby asked, stepping in and closing the door behind her.
Rayna shook her head. "Not yet. Just thinking."
Ruby walked over and sat beside her on the bed. "I figured I’d check in before turning in."
Rayna looked over at her, the light from the lamp reflecting in her soft brown eyes. "That’s good. How was work today?"
Ruby sighed, rubbing her palms together. "Eventful. We finally found a loophole in the contract. Turns out this almighty Mr Sherlock can be held accountable if safety measures aren’t met, and that gives us grounds to terminate."
Rayna blinked in surprise. "Wow. That’s good news."
"It is. Stefan’s handling things really well," Ruby said, her voice warm with quiet pride. "He called for a meeting with Mr Sherlock but the man’s refusing to show. Still, Stefan’s not backing down."
Rayna smiled softly. "I’m glad. He made a promise to those workers, and it’s good to see him keep it."
Ruby nodded, eyes softening. "Yeah. It feels good watching him fight for something that matters. Makes me feel like we’re doing something right."
"You’re in love with him, Rub," Rayna observed and chuckled when Ruby didn’t deny it immediately.
"I guess it’s a good thing. But what happens after the one year is over?" Rayna asked abd Ruby shrugged.
"We’ll figure it out by then," she said and Rayna sighed.
"I just don’t want you to get hurt," Rayna said and Ruby smiled weakly.
"I also don’t want that," she said with a sigh.
There was a brief silence before Rayna shifted slightly, her fingers fidgeting with the hem of her top.
