"Boss, this..." Eli handed the phone to Christopher Moore, who glanced at it with an indifferent expression.
"Let him handle it himself." As if recalling something, Christopher paused his coffee sipping, took the phone, and stood up slowly.
Ruby Mercer saw Christopher Moore coming against the light. Her heart was still racing; what is with this man? Why has he been making her feel all fluttery lately?
Ruby picked up the cup beside her and accidentally spilled a bit. Pretending to drink some water, she coughed, "Mr. Moore, is something up?"
Christopher's icy face inadvertently showed a hint of a smile, but the next second it transformed back into a poker face, and he handed the phone to Ruby.
Ruby numbly took it, met Christopher's deep eyes, quickly averted her gaze and focused on the phone's screen, "This is... Mo—no, Lucy?"
Ruby grabbed the phone suddenly and looked closely. It was indeed Lucy; she clicked into the video and then relaxed—it made sense!
