Steve Burton stood at the door, slightly taken aback, his eyes filled with disbelief. In the next second, his eyebrows furrowed. He didn’t like carpets, so under the sofa was the smooth, cold marble floor, and she was sitting on it, wearing nothing.

Without thinking, Steve walked straight up to Ruby Gregory, leaned down slightly, patted her shoulder and asked in his usual cold tone, “What are you doing squatting here?”

Ruby didn’t respond to him at all.

Steve frowned. Was she angry and refusing to talk to him?

After suppressing his feelings for the night, he felt much more relaxed, and his tone unknowingly lightened, “Didn’t you hear me asking you a question?”

As he spoke, Steve patted Ruby twice more, using a bit more force this time.

Ruby still didn’t move a muscle.

The overly still Ruby made a bad feeling rise in Steve’s heart. After patting her twice more and finding no response, he quickly crouched down in front of Ruby, “Ruby? Ruby?”

Ruby didn’t answer, and Steve finally became thoroughly panicked. He grabbed her shoulders, pulled her up from the floor, and found her pale face with a hint of an abnormal flush. Her eyes were tightly closed, her long eyelashes drooping weakly in their sockets, and her whole body went limp as she slumped to one side.

Steve’s quick reflexes enabled him to catch Ruby by the waist and bring her into his arms, only then realizing the scorching heat from the woman’s body.

At this point, Steve was at a total loss, he patted Ruby’s face and called her name several times. Seeing that she showed no signs of waking up, he finally thought of something, rummaged in his pocket and took out his phone, dialed Rusell Henris’ number, and ran up to the second floor with Ruby in his arms. He kicked open the door of his bedroom, placed Ruby on the bed, and covered her with a blanket.

Steve truly experienced what it meant to be a long time in an instant.

Between the time when Rusell arrived at his apartment with the doctor, it was only a short twenty minutes, but it felt like twenty years to him.

The doorbell rang, and Steve hurriedly opened the door without saying a word. He directly dragged the doctor upstairs and pushed him to the bedside.

Ruby was dressed a bit thin for the suburban wind, and after being exposed to the wind for an afternoon, tired in the evening, and sitting on the cold floor for so long, she caught a cold and developed a fever.

The doctor administered an antipyretic intravenous injection to Ruby. It would take at least two hours for the medicine to take effect. After giving the injection, the doctor was ready to leave when Steve, worried, insisted that the doctor stayed until Ruby’s fever subsided..
