Chapter 377 Making Them Cry And Beg For Forgiveness (Part 2)

Ivan lunged forward and wrapped his hands around Ruby's neck. "I cherished and raised you for over 20 years, only to find out she is not even my own blood. My real daughter was bullied for years by a bastard child like you and that bitch Julia.

"I was nothing but a fool, a blind and heartless beast. Now that Julia has taken my money and run, what makes you think I will let you go?"

"Ugh..."

Ruby gasped as his grip tightened around her throat. She reached up, desperately trying to pry his hands away, but the difference in strength between them was too great. The more she struggled, the harder he squeezed.

Her breathing became labored, and soon, her eyes rolled back as she began to lose consciousness.

The sudden ringing of a phone shattered the tense silence. The sound jolted Ivan back to his senses. He abruptly let go of Ruby's throat, his eyes flickering with unease as he glanced at the caller ID.

It was Zane, the second son of the Holt family and Ruby's former boyfriend. He had just called not too long ago. Steadying his breath, Ivan swiped his finger across the screen and answered the call.

"Hello."

"Mr. Sinclair, is Ruby there? Can you let her take the call?"

Zane's voice came through the receiver. Ivan narrowed his eyes. "Alright, wait a moment."

He handed the phone to Ruby. "It's Zane."

Ruby coughed violently several times before taking the phone. The moment it was in her hands, she shouted into the receiver, "Zane, help me! My father is holding me captive!"

Ivan backhanded her across the face, sending her tumbling to the floor. The phone slipped from her grasp and hit the floor.

"Zane, save me please!" she cried out.
