Chapter 40: Moral Compass
"She may remain unconscious for about three hours even though she has been injected with a serum of hallucinogens," the doctor said.
"Alright," Skyview declared with righteousness. "I will take care of her. Thanks, doctor. I will take her to the Hilton Hotel and drop her off."
Skyview said farewell to the doctor and left.
Subsequently, Skyview carried Willow to the presidential suite at the Hilton Hotel.
"I will just sneak in a kiss, nothing more!"
And so, Skyview stealthily planted a kiss on Willow.
After kissing Willow, Skyview couldn't resist!
No one could resist this!
With that kiss, a strange sensation filled Skyview's mind.
It was the most primal impulse of every man.
"To do or not to do?"
Skyview was in a dilemma.
At that moment, Willow, in a daze, began to mumble in her sleep, "Brother, I will prove it to you: I refuse to be a pawn for the family's arranged marriage. I will rely on myself, and I will demonstrate my abilities." Willow's words were not clear.
Initially startled by Willow's sudden sleep talk, Skyview was struck by Willow's words and the determined expression on her face in the dream. It was like a bucket of cold water had been poured over Skyview, instantly awakening him.
Willow was a beautiful, kind, confident, and independent girl. While others looked down on Skyview, Willow treated him as an equal and was willing to help him. While others fawned over Skyview for his sudden wealth, Willow remained consistent, treating Skyview the same regardless of his status. Willow's heart remained steadfast.
This was one of the qualities Skyview admired most about Willow.
But now, what had Skyview done?
Taking advantage of Willow in her vulnerable state! How was this any different from Connor?
Skyview felt immensely ashamed, raised his hand, and gave himself a slap.
He began to clear his mind.
'Now that I am a billionaire, I can have any beautiful woman I want. There are women willing to hop into my bed from Siberia to Australia!'
'But do I just desire to have Willow's body? No, I like her as a person! Such things between men and women are normal, but it should happen when she agrees. It should be mutual consent, a deep connection. Otherwise, how is it any different from playing with a silicone doll?
'If I take advantage of Willow, then I would be someone like Connor or other rich playboys. I cannot become the person I detest the most!' Skyview made a resolution.
After deep introspection, Skyview carefully dressed Willow neatly and covered her with a blanket.
Then, Skyview rose and retrieved a bottle of chilled mineral water from the fridge.
Pouring the water over his forehead, the cold water instantly suppressed Skyview's inner turmoil.
Sitting by the bedside, Skyview held Willow's hand, gazing at her sleeping face, a smile appearing on his face.
Softly singing a love song to Willow, watching over the woman he cared for, was far better than taking advantage of her vulnerability.
Now, Skyview finally began to understand what true happiness meant.
