Steve went out to cool down, not leave. And he, furious, had thought Adam was the right person to handle this situation.
Tracey made it clear to all that Steve was only her family. Therefore, it was inappropriate for him to be jealous, and the cat got his tongue.
He was mad at both Tracey, who was ignorant of Wilson's slyness, and himself, who had no right to point out the fact.
So, he contacted Adam to make things called by their right names.
Otherwise, anything might happen if let nature takes its course. The lot was the most unpredictable thing in the world.
Once Steve accepted that Adam was the right person for Tracey, any change would be reclined.
The phone call with Adam made Steve feel good. When he turned his head, Tracey, in a thin dress, ran to him barefoot.
Tracey threw herself into his arms and kept saying sorry before Steve said anything.
All onlookers stared at them and wondered where the directors and cameras were for this idol drama.
"Tracey, you..." Steve was surprised at the agitation of Tracey.
Tracey held his waist tightly, "Steve, sorry, I am so sorry. Please don't leave. You are one of the few families I have in this world, and we have once kept each other company for three years. If you leave, what should I do?"
"Tell me the problems? I will make them right, OK? I will never see Wilson again if you don't like him. I don't give the perfume a d*mn, as long as you are here for me."
Looking at the little woman in his arms, Steve felt helpless while some complicated emotions flashed past his blue eyes.
Tracey, blind to the reason for his anger, was anxious to look for him. Did that mean she cared for him very much?
Steve preferred to take it this way. She cared about and loved him as a family.
Steve sighed and said, "Tracey, I will never blame you. How could I leave you? I just come out to get some fresh air."
"I know that you don't love me; however, I will be here for you whenever you need me. The sight of you made me happy."
There had been no talk about love between them, but both of them knew that Steve loved Tracey in the past three years. Now Tracey could only regard him as a family for her union with Adam.
Tracey wished that Steve would find his fate one day and hated that he loathed, even left her.
Actually, she did not figure out why Steve got mad. However, her guilty conscience from the harm she did to Steve didn't allow her to ignore his feelings for Wilson.
"Steve, I'm sorry, I'm sorry..." Tracey kept apologizing to Steve under the guilty conscience, as the fact that she couldn't love him was the biggest hurt for him.
