Chapter 565 Wasted Love

After listening to the recording, Phoebe just stood there, dead silent. She got up and started to leave, but Ruby grabbed her wrist.

Ruby said, "Phoebe, it was Theodore who set the trap. What are you gonna do about it?"

Phoebe shook off Ruby's hand and gave her a cold stare. "Ruby, this is between him and me. And don't think blaming Theodore is gonna clear your name or make me side with you. I'm not that dumb." Ruby looked all disappointed. "Why don't you believe I really care about Donovan?"

"Do you actually care about him?" Phoebe scoffed. "Then tell me, why did Donovan argue with you before the accident?"

With that, Phoebe turned and left.
