Lady Gregory completely ignored her daughter’s question and just relayed her conversation with Madam Burton: “Mrs. Burton said that although you and Steve are not very old and getting married now is a bit early, since you two are meant to be together eventually, it’s better to get married sooner. Even if you want to wait another two years before having a child, that’s fine.”

“Mrs. Burton also said that since the New Year is coming soon, if we start preparing for the wedding now, it will seem a bit rushed. Plus, she just checked and there are no auspicious dates before the New Year. So it’s better to wait until next spring to choose the best date for the wedding. This way, you’ll have half a year to get everything ready.”

“Oh, and Mrs. Burton also mentioned that although you and Steve cannot get married before the New Year, you should get engaged sooner. That way, the relationship between you two will be announced to the world, and you two can settle down sooner…”

Ruby Gregory was still bending her waist as she listened to her mother’s long string of words.

Perhaps because Lady Gregory had been waiting for this dream to come true for so many years, she was overjoyed and spoke with great excitement. Even her usual grace and gentle demeanor had disappeared.

Ruby only felt a buzzing in her ears, accompanied by her mother’s laughter. After a while, she finally understood the situation.

Steve Burton was going to marry her.

Steve Burton was going to marry her?

Ruby was completely thrown off by this sudden news. She didn’t know when she took off her shoes or how she walked into the room. When she finally came to her senses, she was already sitting on the sofa, and Lady Gregory was happily flipping through an old calendar, saying, “Ruby, Mrs. Burton told me to pick an engagement date. Let’s set the date right away. As soon as you and Steve are engaged, the whole world will know. The Burtons are not the type to change their plans easily. By then, you’ll officially be Ms. Burton.”

As she spoke, Lady Gregory pushed Ruby and pointed to an auspicious date at the end of the month, saying, “The 28th is a good day. What do you think?”

Lady Gregory thought for a moment, tilted her head, and then shook her head, saying, “There are only a few days left until then. Even though we don’t plan to have a big engagement party, we still can’t rush it too much. But we can’t delay it for too long either. After all, your father and I have been looking forward to you marrying Steve since the day you were born. We’ve waited for so many years, and now it’s finally happening. Let’s get engaged sooner so your father and I can sleep peacefully…” While mumbling to herself, Lady Gregory flipped through the calendar and pointed to the 10th of the next month: “Ruby, let’s pick this day, the 10th of December. It’s exactly one month from now, and we should be able to get everything done.”

“Alright, let’s choose the 10th.” Lady Gregory made the decision and then turned to her daughter for her opinion: “Ruby, is that alright?”

Ruby was still immersed in the news that Steve was actually going to marry her. She didn’t even know what her mother had been talking about. She just instinctively nodded her head when her mother asked for her opinion.
