The bedroom was eerily quiet. f reeweb novel.com

Ruby Gregory slept soundly on the bed.

Steve Burton stood silently beside the bed, staring at Ruby. His eyes lacked their usual coldness, replaced with a thick, lingering sadness.

At this moment, she didn’t have a place in his heart. If she were to have a child, the Burtons would let him marry her, right?

What would happen then?

Steve didn’t want to think about it, but his mind couldn’t help but entertain such a conjecture.

By then, Ruby wouldn’t devote any attention to him at all.

By then, Ruby would treat him with icy politeness, just as she did now.

By then, Ruby would always be like she was now in front of him, a dignified, cautious, knowledgeable, and reasonable woman.

By then, Ruby…

As Steve thought about it, he couldn’t bear to continue thinking.

The night was deep, and the stars and city lights outside the window had become somewhat silent along with Steve.

He couldn’t marry a woman who didn’t love him at all.

Even if that woman was the one he truly loved and the only one he’d chosen for life.

Because standing in front of the woman he deeply loves, not seeing himself reflected in her eyes, is more painful than never possessing her.upd?t? ?t ?ew?o?el . ?rg

Ruby’s slumber was deep and sweet.

When she opened her eyes, the sun outside was brilliantly dazzling. fre(e)novelkiss.com

Ruby felt slightly dizzy, as she couldn’t figure out where she was at first. Her brain remained bewildered for a while until she realized that she had fallen asleep in an unfamiliar place. Sitting up abruptly, she saw the love bites on her skin through the mirror opposite the bed. Scenes from the previous night played back slowly, like a slow-motion movie.

Ruby picked up her phone and checked the time – it was already 11:30 in the morning!

She hadn’t gone to work the entire morning! And Steve hadn’t woken her up?

As Ruby instinctively pulled back the covers and dressed herself, she suddenly realized that she was still in the company. If anyone saw her sleeping in Steve’s office, who knew what kind of rumors and gossip would spread?

Ruby had no choice but to lower her hand, return to the bedroom, and notice a thermos on the bedside table with a note beside it, simply stating, “Eat when you wake.”

Ruby knew that Steve had prepared this meal for her. She opened the box, saw the delicate dishes inside, picked up her chopsticks, and began to eat.

Atter she finished eating, Steve still hadn’t appeared in the ottice. Ruby, once again feeling bored, turned on the television, watched it for a while, and then dozed off again..
