Mr. Burton? Isn’t that Steve Burton?

Ruby subconsciously glanced at the restroom. Through the frosted glass door, she could faintly hear the sound of running water.

The nurse, with a smile, told Ruby that her blood pressure was normal and left the room after putting away the blood pressure cuff.

As Ruby sat on the hospital bed, racking her brains on how to persuade Steve to agree to her early discharge, the restroom door was pushed open, and Steve walked out wearing a light-colored casual outfit.

He glanced at Ruby, walked to the sofa, and leisurely sat down, turning on the laptop in front of him.

Ruby seized the opportunity before Steve began working, chose her words cautiously, and said casually, “It seems like I’ve been in the hospital for quite a while.”

Steve raised his eyes, looked at Ruby, said nothing, and typed the password into the laptop.

Ruby looked around at the upscale hospital room and said, “This must be the best hospital room here. I heard it costs five digits a night. I’ve stayed here for so many days; it must have cost a lot.” fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm

Steve could tell that Ruby was beating around the bush, so he casually leaned back on the sofa and went along with it, “Yes. It’s a lot of money.”

Ruby’s eyes sparkled at Steve’s response, “The nurse just came to check my blood pressure and said everything was normal.”

“That’s good.” Steve replied leisurely.

“So, I think there’s no need to waste money.” Ruby thought to herself, now that she had come this far in the conversation, surely he would understand what she meant?

So, she wanted to be discharged? Steve pretended not to understand Ruby’s meaning and asked, “Then what?” ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com

Did he really need her to spell it out? Ruby felt slightly annoyed, “Well, I think I can be discharged now.”

“The evening of the 10th.” Steve stated Ruby’s already known discharge date.

Ruby blinked and said, “Actually, I think my body has no problems now, and there’s no need to spend extra money staying in the hospital for a few more days.”

Steve picked up a document from the side, flipped it open, and without blinking, stated, “The evening of the 11th.”

Ruby’s eyes widened, “And I haven’t been home for so many days…”

“The evening of the 15th.” Steve casually flipped the document and replied calmly.

Ruby quickly clenched her mouth shut, staring at him, wanting to speak but was afraid he would change her discharge date to the 20th if she did.

Although Steve seemed to be focusing on the report in his hands, his peripheral vision kept glancing at the girl sitting cross-legged on the hospital bed.

He looked at her, frightened to speak but seemingly unable to stop herself, with a grumpy pout on her face. He couldn’t help but smile slightly at the sight.

It turned out that she also had such genuine, lively, and adorable moments in front of him, away from her usual cautious demeanor and fear-induced reactions.

Without even reading the report, Steve still pretended to turn a page. He looked up at Ruby and asked, “Why do you want to leave hospital so badly?”

Hearing Steve inquire about her reason, Ruby thought there might be hope for her early discharge.
