She doesn't push it though, instead doing the one thing she hates the most with something like this. Letting it go. It's time to accept that there's nothing more she can do for him right now. Rather than wait, she doesn't attempt to hide the tears that start to slip out.
"Never." A beat. "You know where to find me if you ever need anything because I can't just - I can't throw it all away because you don't want -" Me and the help I can give you. But it's time to distance herself. From him, from everything. It was too personal. So, instead the mask slips back on, "My door's always open - either myself or my assistant can help you if you need it - that's what we're here for." And with that she gives him one last look before turning to head back inside, leaving her heart on the sidewalk behind her as a parting gift.
If he ever wanted to pick it up and return it to her, he's more than welcome but she's not gonna be out looking for it anytime soon.
