Surely she knew what would happen under such conditions and in such an environment, but she still invited him.
Could it be that her hidden meaning was the sas what he thought? When Ralph considered this, he undid the tie he had just fastened around his neck, then took off the suit he had carefully chosen and rolled up the sleeve of his shirt.

What a wonderful future! He could hardly wait for that moment! After leaving the room, Ralph picked out a bottle of fine red wine, put it on a tray with two glasses and a plate of snacks, and asked the maid to bring them up to Heather's room.
The tray was brought outside the room, and then Ralph waved to signal the maid to leave.

"Heather..." He could not stand it any longer and dashed after her, calling out, "Look, aren't | punctual? Did you callhere because you have something to tell me? Or...do you want to do something with me?" He hastily closed the door and followed her in small steps.
