Chapter 628: Ruby Gregory's Confession (8)

The phone didn't ring with the crisp sound of Ruby Gregory's voice as usual. Steve Burton faintly sensed something was wrong. Unconsciously frowning, his tone carried a hint of worry as he continued, "Ruby, what happened?"

Ruby listened to Steve's concerned tone, and thought of the words Maya Mitchell had said to her. Her anger at the bottom of her heart instantly turned into grievances. Holding the phone, she took a while to respond in a low voice, "Nothing."

Though she only said one word, Steve still detected a strong displeasure in her voice. Could it be that someone was indeed bullying her? Steve's heart raced, his tone taking on a fierce edge, "Who bullied you?"

The more worried Steve became for Ruby, the more her sense of grievance swelled, her eyes reddening in the process.

On the other side of the phone, Steve had no idea of Ruby's current situation. Thinking about her pregnancy, he became more anxious, "Ruby, are you at home or outside?"
