Before the waiter had a chance to ring the doorbell, Ruby Gregory pulled the door open.
The waiter lowered his hand and gave Ruby a shallow, respectful smile, "Miss, did you call for the clothing service just now?"
Ruby's eyes were slightly red from being scolded by Steve Burton. Upon seeing the waiter, she hurriedly lowered her head, trying to speak and tell the waiter to go in and fetch the clothes herself, but in the end, she found her voice trembling. Ruby simply shook her head and walked quickly past the waiter and towards the outside.
The waiter hesitated, knocked on the door, and just opened his mouth, calling, "Excuse me, anyone there?"
A furious "Get out!" came from inside.
Startled, the waiter quickly raised his hand, closed the door, and fled.
In the hotel room, there was only Steve Burton left in an instant.
The room still lingered with the intimate atmosphere left behind by their lovemaking.
