The moment Ruby Gregory and Steve Burton's gazes met, Steve suddenly pulled away from her body, with a gloomy face, he grabbed a robe from the side, wrapped himself in it, and turned to enter the bathroom.
Soon after, the sound of running water faintly came through.
Ruby was caught off guard by Steve's sudden halt, completely clueless about what was happening. She sat on the bed, dumbfounded and holding the quilt, staring at the bathroom door.
After about five minutes, the sound of water stopped, and the bathroom door was opened from the inside. Steve, wrapped in a bathrobe and wiping his wet hair with a towel, walked out.
His expression still seemed somewhat indifferent, not even glancing at Ruby sitting on the bed. He walked straight to the dressing room, changed into a casual light-colored loungewear, and continued to ignore Ruby as he walked out of the bedroom.
