Chapter 727 Charles’ Worry

Toby felt delighted after gaining another win. Since he was happy now, he was willing to let Charles go. He cleared his throat and said victoriously, “Alright then. Since you…”

Charles didn’t want to hear his voice, so he interrupted Toby, “Give Sonia the phone.”

Toby frowned. “Why? Wanna snitch? Then you’ve failed. She heard everything we said.”

“You think too highly of yourself. I’m not that much of a sore loser.” Charles snorted. Snitch? Man, I want to, but it’s useless. She wouldn’t stand on my side and scold him. She heard everything we said, but she didn’t even make a sound. It’s obvious she’s not stepping in, so snitching is just a waste of time.

“Knowing where your place is a good trait.” Toby snickered.

Charles closed his eyes and took a deep breath. “Toby, I’m not going to argue with you. Hand her the phone. I have something I need to ask.”

“You can ask me. We’re one and the same. Whatever she knows, I know,” Toby answered. He just didn’t want to give the phone back to Sonia.

Charles rolled his eyes. “As if. I want to ask about my ex-secretary. Do you even know anything about her?”

Toby shut up. Um, no. I know nothing about that.

Sonia shook her head in amusement. “Give it to me. I’ll talk to him.” She extended her hand, and Toby gave her the phone back reluctantly. Sonia put it against her ear. “What do you want to know about Daphne, Charles?”
