The pressure had reached its limit, and instead, Geoffrey relaxed; if the Astronaut before him truly was the Devil who traded for his soul, the immortal power the Astronaut granted him showed enough of his favor.
Yes, he had immeasurable value to the Astronaut before him, and before his value was drained dry, Geoffrey wouldn't be abandoned.
