CHAPTER 105: Mom?

  RUBY

  I was in a deep slumber, but my sleep broke all of a sudden when I received a phone call. Usually, it would take a few more phone calls to make me wake up from my sleep, but during the pregnancy, sometimes I would wake up very easily, while sometimes Vexon would make me hear a gunshot so that I would wake up immediately.
