Rusell Henris stood at the door and saw Steve raising his head, sitting on the sofa. He hesitated for a moment, then closed the door and walked slowly towards the sofa.

The room smelled normal, with the faint fruity aroma characteristic of a hotel, without any of the lewd post-coital scents. Steve’s clothes, though a bit wrinkled, were still neatly worn, proving that there had been no intimate contact between him and the woman.

Rusell had witnessed the woman Steve had requested hurriedly leaving his room. Though she could not be called a national beauty, she was still very eye-catching in a crowd.

It was late at night, a man and woman alone in a room, and she was beautiful. It would be hard for any normal man to resist the temptation.

How much love did it take to show such restraint?

Rusell silently sighed, turned around, and poured a glass of warm water. Placing it in front of Steve, he said, “You must be thirsty after all that drinking, have some water.”

Steve continued to gaze unblinkingly at the chandelier for a long while, his long curled eyelashes trembling ever so slightly before he finally straightened his head. Instead of reaching for the water, he rubbed his temples and asked softly, “Have you sorted out the proposals Edward provided?”

Rusell knew that those proposals referred to the rescue plans for Gregory’s Enterprises.

After indulging for so long and sobering up, the first thought in his mind was still about a woman named Ruby Gregory.

Rusell took out the files he carried with him and handed them to Steve, “Even now, you’re still thinking about her.”

Upon hearing this, Steve’s expression faltered briefly before he calmly opened the documents in front of him. After skimming through and finding no issues, he looked up and said, “Let’s inform the family to visit Uncle Gregory at the hospital tomorrow morning.”

“I understand.” Rusell nodded, but he noticed the dry tear tracks at the corner of Steve’s beautiful eyes. His throat felt choked with unspoken distress. After a while, Rusell pretended not to notice, shifting his gaze away and smiling, “You care so much, why don’t you ever compromise and avoid making a scene every time?”

Compromise? Hadn’t he compromised enough already?

Steve quietly chuckled as if he had just heard a funny joke.

That’s right; she didn’t love him. No matter how much he compromised, she still wouldn’t love him. In the end, the imbalance in his heart would only grow.

He remembered the night of the class reunion when everyone recounted old stories, saying that she and Edric Reat were the perfect match made in heaven. When asked to sing together, she claimed she had a cold and declined. At that moment, Steve was so overwhelmed by joy and emotion that he nearly proposed to her on the spot.
