Sylvia's POV:
Finally, I plucked up the courage to take out my phone and tapped on the first number in the contact book. My heart started to race.
The call connected after the first ring. Rufus ' pleasant voice sounded from the other end of the line.
"Sylvia, have you made itback to your dormitory?"
He still sounded so gentle, as though nothing had happened.
Somehow, his soothing voice calmed me down. After some slight hesitation, I asked, "Did you close the forum?"
Rufus sighed. "So you did see it. Sorry, I didn't want you to know."
I couldn't help but grasp the phone tightly and asked in a slightly bitter voice, "Does it bother you? It's true, the she-wolf in the pictures is me, but I promise nothing happened between me and Warren. I managed to escape through the sky light."
I was met with silence.
I became flustered. "Why aren't you saying anything? What those netizens said, it's all false.
I would never do such a thing—"
Rufus interrupted me. "Come outside. I'll wait for you at our spot."
Without waiting for a response, he hung up the phone. The busy tone echoed in my ear like a siren, but I was too shocked to put the phone down.
Heart beating wildly, I immediately ran out of the dormitory. The landscape by the side of the road was like a blur as I zipped past it.
Finally, I arrived at our usual meeting spot. Rufus was already there, waiting for me. The dim yellow street light couldn't hide his dignified aura.
