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?"

Knowing Donovan's romantic nature, he wouldn't have argued with Ruby unless she did something to upset him.

Ruby bit her lower lip, unable to speak.

Seeing this, Phoebe was utterly disappointed. "Ruby, go back and tell the people behind you that if I find out Donovan's death is related to you, I won't let you off."

With that, Phoebe turned and left.
