Steve Burton didn’t speak, but directly pressed the intercom. In less than half a minute, secretary Ms. Taylor walked into the office with Ruby Gregory’s bag.

There was still a warm atmosphere between Steve and Ruby in the office, making it clear to anyone that they had a close relationship. However, Ms. Taylor, the long-serving secretary at Pristine’s Enterprises, was not at all surprised or curious about the two. Maintaining her professional smile, she approached Steve and Ruby and handed the bag over while stating, “Mr. Burton, Ms. Gregory’s bag.”

In the company, Ruby was an underling to the secretary and obligated to follow her orders. Now she was bringing Ruby her bag personally. Ruby instinctively reached out to take it, but Steve, standing beside her, had already stretched out his hand, elegantly receiving the bag.

Ms. Taylor immediately recognized the hint and said, “Mr. Burton, I’ll leave first.”

After speaking, she politely nodded to Ruby, then took two steps back before turning around and walking out of the office.

As soon as Ms. Taylor closed the office door, Steve carried the bag in one hand, and holding Ruby’s waist with the other, led her into the bedroom attached to his office.

The style of the bedroom was the same as before, only the sheets and quilt cover had been changed to new ones.

Steve casually hung Ruby’s bag on the coat rack of the bedroom, then crouched down and personally took off her high heels. He picked her up and placed her on the bed.

Ruby was somewhat dazed by Steve’s series of actions.

After carefully covering her with the quilt, Steve found the room’s lighting rather bright, so he closed the curtains. Then he reached out and touched Ruby’s long hair, staring at her beautiful face for a moment before his lips curved slightly and he whispered, “Sleep.”

The two words from his mouth seemed to carry a magical power, causing Ruby to instinctively close her eyes and soon fall into a deep sleep.

Steve waited for Ruby to fall asleep before standing up and leaving the room. As he was about to leave the bedroom, he heard Ruby’s phone make a ding sound.

Steve halted his steps, worried that a call might come in and disturb Ruby’s slumber. He walked to the coat rack, opened Ruby’s bag, and began to look for her phone.

Ruby’s phone was quite thin and stashed in a compartment. Although Steve could feel it, he couldn’t find it. After searching almost every pocket in Ruby’s bag, he finally took out the phone, switched it to silent mode, and glanced at the table where Ruby’s bag contents lay – lipstick, wallet, car keys, some random fuzzy balls, and a pack of medicine.

As Steve put the things back into the bag, he glanced at the pack of Ibuprofen, a very normal painkiller. Without giving it much thought, he tossed it into Ruby’s bag. He then looked at the sleeping woman on the bed before leaving the office.

When Ruby naturally woke up from her sleep, the sun outside the window was at its strongest.

Perhaps due to sleeping for several hours in a row, her head felt groggy. She lay there, staring at the ceiling for a while, before gradually recovering.

Ruby lifted the quilt, slowly got out of bed, opened the door to the break room, and peered out.
