Chapter 326: Blessing in Disguise (16)

She wasn't sure if she had pressed the right buttons, her heart tightly wound. After a while, she heard Steve Burton's familiar cold and clear voice coming from the phone, "What's wrong?"

Ruby Gregory had always known that Steve's voice was a rare auditory pleasure in this world, like the sound of nature itself.
