"Hold on!"
Realizing that Luke was about to depart, Ryan stopped him immediately.
"Ryan?"
"Forget it!"
In that moment, he realized something.
With a gloomy expression, he pulled down the curtain.
The lights flickered out, plunging the room into total darkness.
To a lower-pitched tone, he said, "Forget it! Don't investigate any further!"
"What? Are you sure?"
"Just leave it."
Everybody had their personal history that he or she would rather people not know about.
Wendy had this one as well, and so did Ryan.
He had utilized his power so much.
His advantage to get too far into her personal life would show her lack of respect. Ryan said, rubbing his brows together, "It is rapidly approaching midnight.Now is the time to rest."
"Ryan, are you really okay? We can talk about this."
As it turned out, Luke had grounds for concern.
Though his elder brother was never so known for indecisiveness, in his heart, he had always been capable of being strong and decisive.
He seldom found himself to be in such a state of uncertainty when he made a decision.
Well, now, Luke paused to think for a moment and said with some concern, "Ryan, I'm in favor of looking into that.When we know what she has really experienced, we will be capable of treating her accordingly."
"I beg to disagree.I don't think it’s a great idea!"
"But Ryan..."
"I still have a long way to go before I will be able to enter her world.She doesn't believe me, so I'll have to show her how sincere I am."
"All right! It's your decision anyway.I hope you don't regret it."
It was almost midnight, and the neighborhood was serene and calm.
Raymond and Wendy climbed the stairs and entered the second floor bedroom.
The bedroom was significantly wide, and it was decorated in the style of the Mediterranean.
The ambience was definitely relaxing.
All in the room was alive.
There were light blue Uy Bes Im he wallpapers, dark blue curtains, a big white bed, and several oil paintings hanging on the head of the bed.
On both sides of the bed, two flowerpots were placed in two corners of the room, and two huge green plants were planted in the pot.
