With trembling fingers, Ruby took her phone from Rayna. She opened the anonymous chat thread, stared at it for a long moment, then began to type:
"Stay the hell out of my life. You know nothing. If you ever text me again, I'll get my husband involved and make sure you're caught. This is your final warning. And you should know I have nothing to worry about so you can spill whatever trash you have in your mouth, fool."
She stared at the message, hesitating for just one second more before hitting send.
The message was delivered. The typing indicator blinked for a few seconds.
Then a single response came through:
"Fuck you."
Nothing else. No threats. No taunts. Just two words, sharp and vicious.
Ruby stared at the screen, breath caught in her throat.
Rayna leaned over and read it. "Well. That's not creepy at all."
"He didn't deny it," Ruby whispered.
