Chapter 83 - 83: 83: Settling Old and New Accounts Together (3)
“Our big brother is coming down.” Before Madeleine could finish her sentence, Howard spewed out the alcohol in his mouth. Coughing, he turned his head to follow Edward Woods and Rusell Henris’ gazes, and indeed saw Steve Burton walking straight towards them with a grim expression from the elevator. “Didn’t our big brother go upstairs with Ruby?”
“It’s only been two hours; why is he back already?”
“Did we all guess wrong? Did our big brother have a fight with Ruby?”
“Our big brother’s face doesn’t look good at all, and it seems even scarier than the ugliest it was before.”
As Edward Woods’s words settled, Steve Burton arrived at their table. Howard immediately stood up, shouting, “Bro!”

Steve Burton’s outstretched hand suddenly stopped in its tracks upon hearing this. After two seconds, he retracted his hand, not even bothering to glance at the other three people. He turned around and strode towards the entrance of the banquet hall.
