Steve Burton had no choice but to walk back to the bedside, pick up his cell phone, and sure enough, as he sensed, it was a call from "Ruby."
Steve's hand gripping the phone couldn't help but apply more force. He stared at the flickering screen, his lips tightly pressed together. Several times he raised his finger to answer the call, but in the end, at the very moment his fingertip touched the screen, he suddenly retracted it, until the phone's ringing stopped, and he still didn't press the answer button.

On the other end of the phone, Ruby Gregory, after calling twice in a row without being answered by Steve, her anger in her heart instantly expanded to its peak, and she couldn't help but throw her phone violently to the ground!
What did Steve mean? Was he so infatuated with the woman he was meeting tonight that he wouldn't answer her calls?
What about all the sweet words he had said to her? Was he playing with her like a clown?
