As he spoke, he reached into the box he’d brought along and pulled out a brand–new bedside lamp. Then, with deft movements, he disassembled it into its component parts.

Adrian was a man of refined manners. He wouldn’t enter her bedroom without her permission, even if the door was left slightly ajar. He sought her consent, saying, “I can help you change it. It will be quick.”
Lysander rose and moved to the bedroom doorway. Looking at Adrian’s hand, she said, “You’re a doctor, and your hands are invaluable. I can’t bear it if they were to get injured.

“You don’t need to apologize, but… Lysander paused for a moment then added deliberately. “Goodbye, drive safely.
She didn’t attempt to retain Adrian. Instead, she subtly showed him the door. Even her reminders were by the book, not giving him a shred of undeserved hope.
Adrian’s heart dropped. “All right.”
