Ruby trembled as she continued shivering in her position and watched Hailey coming closer.
She gripped her gown as she pressed it against her thighs fearfully. Her heart was speedily pounding inside her chest as if it would cut off.
She swallowed hard and shut her eyes as Hailey came closer. Indeed, she feared Hailey, no doubt about that. But then, who doesn't fear her in this house? Absolutely no one. If Aidan feared Hailey, then who wouldn't fear?
As her eyes were still shut and waiting to hear Hailey's voice echoing, the unexpected happened.
Hailey lightly tapped her on the shoulder, which made Ruby tremble more. What is Hailey up to?
"Huh?" Ruby gasped as she slowly opened her eyes, hesitantly and fearfully.
Immediately she raised her head, what she saw shocked her to her spine. Hailey was smiling at her? Impossible!
