บท 138: Is That Why?

Caspian hadn’t given much thought to the matter regarding Ruby, especially after he acquired new information about her from Hamilton in the afternoon.

“Caspian…” Anastasia gently placed her palm on his cheek. She could clearly see the hesitation in his eyes.

She was aware that she was putting Caspian in a difficult position by mentioning Ruby’s name. Caspian had mentioned before that there were things that he couldn’t share with her.
