Forbidden Passion

Chapter 715 My Perspective Was Too Narrow

Phoebe looked around the room in disbelief. There was a photo of Donovan hanging on the wall above the bed. It was a printed poster, with yellowed edges, indicating it had been there for a long time. Ruby walked in, took out a bag, and started packing her and Ethan's belongings. Actually, there wasn't much to pack.

Ruby hadn't made much money in the past two years, barely scraping by to support herself and Ethan. Even Ethan's clothes were from the neighbor Leah Perry's kids.

Every time Ruby saw Ethan wearing other people's old clothes, she hated herself for being useless and for bringing Ethan into a life of hardship.

"For the past two years, my dad has been constantly suppressing me. It's already a blessing that Ethan and I have a place to stay. I don't dare ask for more." Phoebe clenched her fists and said, "Mr. Adams really doesn't treat you like his own child."

Ruby curled her lips into a sneer.

Phoebe couldn't help but say, "Then why don't you leave Kedora? With your abilities, you could definitely find a decent job elsewhere."

Ruby paused her packing, her voice turning a bit desolate. "I've thought about leaving, but I can't bear to leave Donovan. Here, I can visit him often and talk to him." Phoebe was shocked. She had underestimated Ruby's feelings for Donovan. To her, once someone was dead, staying by a tombstone only brought more pain.

But to Ruby, that tombstone was her only solace. It was as if when she leaned against it and talked to Donovan, he would smile and respond to her.

"I'm sorry," Phoebe suddenly said.

Ruby glanced back at her and said indifferently, "Why are you apologizing to me?"

Phoebe thought for a moment, not knowing how to describe her feelings. Finally, she said, "I was being narrow-minded."

Ruby was speechless.
