Doing Kindness
Ryan was still sitting at his desk, remembering the conversation he and Jenna had a few days ago. And his heart still felt unbearable pain when he looked into the woman's eyes. There's a wound there.
Could Jenna think Ryan made that decision because he no longer loves Jenna? However, Ryan had said everything, with all the honesty he could give.
He had never been so honest with any woman about his feelings. It's true as Hellen has always pointed out, that Ryan is a frigid man, who seems to have no love, jealousy, or desire for possession. However, that was all broken by his feelings and attitude towards Jenna.
If he said, until now no one had succeeded in making him love her like that, then it was an honesty. It wasn't just a tease so that Jenna wouldn't be angry with her decision.
