Upon hearing this, Jolie looked at him. "Can I refuse you?"

"Of course you can," Gavin replied without hesitation.

Jolie eyed him skeptically, finding it hard to believe he would give in so easily.

Gavin figured that even if she refused, there were still six obligations left to fulfill. Once those were over, their ties would be completely severed. He was confident that by then, she wouldn't occupy any more of his thoughts. In his life, emotions had never been a priority. Career and power were always paramount. He had set his goals clearly from a young age.

So even though he now realized he liked Jolie, he wouldn't do anything irrational for the sake of feelings. That wasn't who he was.

Jolie's eyes gradually brightened. She had assumed he was the kind of person who would stop at nothing to get what he wanted, resorting to forceful tactics if she disagreed. His rationality made things much simpler! "Mr. Cooper, I'm sorry," Jolie said after deliberating for a moment. "We're not very compatible."

"Alright."

The rejection was evident.

Gavin's expression remained neutral as he replied calmly, "There are still six obligations left. Don't forget them."

With that, he got up and left the hospital room.
