The room suddenly became quiet. Ruby Mercer looked at Christopher Moore and smiled, "I'm fine! You don't need to worry."
Christopher Moore saw Ruby Mercer pretending to be strong, and he couldn't help feeling a bit annoyed.
"How is that boy?"
Ruby asked.
"Relax, he's in the guest room!"
Upon hearing this, Ruby Mercer felt relieved.
As if remembering something, Ruby Mercer asked again, "Where is that man from last night? He saved me twice."
Christopher Moore frowned. Last night Robert Southgate had called him saying he had captured a man.
That man was the one who saved Ruby Mercer last time, and Christopher hadn't gotten around to dealing with it yet!
Unexpectedly, Ruby Mercer cared, making Christopher suddenly feel a bit suffocated.
Why does that man always appear when Ruby Mercer is in danger, and why wasn't it me who showed up then?
Christopher Moore's eyes flickered, and he said, sullenly, "I don't know."
