After the call was connected for a while, a man's low and hoarse voice came through from the other side.
"Ruby..."
Ruby Mercer bit her lip, covering her mouth tightly so that not a single sound of her gasping would escape.
Christopher Moore held the phone away and took a heavy breath before putting it back to his ear.
He knew she was crying!
He was now the name she didn't dare mention!
The outsider she was trying hard to exclude!
Yet, his heart ached terribly! And he felt terribly wronged!
"Ruby, I miss you so much!"
After saying that, the man hung up the phone directly.
He was afraid if he continued, he wouldn't be able to resist disrupting Ryan Baxter and Lionel's plan.
On Ruby's side, her tears blurred her vision, making her unable to see her "Mr. Moore" clearly, but his words of missing her lingered in her ears.
Without this call, Ruby might not have felt so tormented and sad; with this call, her tears wouldn't stop flowing.
