Steve Burton wrapped Ruby Gregory in a towel, wiped her body dry, carried her out of the bathroom, and used a hairdryer to dry her hair. ƒгeewёbnovel.com

By the time he was halfway done drying her hair, Ruby had already slumped onto his legs and fallen fast asleep.

Steve turned the hairdryer down two notches and quickly dried her long hair. He then gently carried her to the bed, pulled the covers up, and tucked her in.

Steve leaned against the pillows, watching TV for a while before remembering something. He lifted the covers, got out of bed, walked to the couch, and picked up Ruby’s handbag. He rummaged inside for a moment and found a pain relief tablet sheet.

On the sheet, there was nothing left—the two capsules that were originally there had already been taken.

Steve stared at the empty sheet for a long time before turning his gaze to Ruby, who was fast asleep on the bed.

Could it be that she always took two pain relief tablets before they made love?

At this thought, Steve’s expression instantly froze, and deep down, he faintly guessed at something.

Steve’s hand subconsciously clenched into a fist, his lips pressed tightly together as he stared at Ruby, who was sound asleep on the bed, a complex mix of emotions flashing in his eyes.

After an uncertain amount of time, Steve slowly turned his head away, gazing at the empty tablet sheet in his hand. He then quietly put the sheet back into Ruby’s bag without another glance at her, and walked out onto the balcony.

Since it was Saturday, Ruby hadn’t set an alarm on her phone. When she awoke the next day, the sky was already bright outside the window.

The balcony door was half open, allowing a cool breeze to gently blow into the room and making the floor-to-ceiling curtains dance.

Ruby got out of bed, went to the bathroom to freshen up, and then went downstairs. She looked around but couldn’t find Steve. First, she glanced out the French windows at the empty swimming pool. Finding no one there, she returned to the second floor and checked Steve’s study, which was also void of any trace of the man.

Confused, Ruby furrowed her brow and walked over to the bedside, about to use her phone to call Steve when she spotted a note pinned underneath it.
