Chapter 67
Sonia raised her eyebrows. “If you’re looking for Miss Gray, why are you here? Isn’t she with you?” “Exactly!” Charles agreed, crossing his arms.
In response, Toby lowered his eyes. “She’s not with me.”
“What?” Charles paused for a moment before smiling gleefully. “Have you lost
her?”
Toby didn’t reply. No longer finding the
situation as funny as before, Charles
questioned in surprise as the smile slipped from his face, “Are you serious?”
Looking at Toby, Sonia continued, “Are you looking for her here because you think we hid her?”
Toby met her gaze. “She never returned
from the restroom, and the only people here that have bad blood with her are
you two.”
Annoyed, Charles barked a laugh. “You
think we hid her because we have
issues with her? How stupid do you
think we are? Everyone knows we’d be
the foremost suspects if something
happened to her.”
Silently, Toby pursed his lips. In truth, he, too, knew the chances of Tina being there weren’t high. Thus, he had gone over only hoping he would find Tina by sheer luck.
“President Fuller.” Sonia grabbed the split hem of Charles’ suit jacket and pulled him to the side before walking up to Toby. “I’ll admit I bumped into her in the restroom, but I left before her
and have no idea where she went. You
can check the video surveillance of the
areas close to the restroom.”
“I did. There’s no trace of her,” he said,
clenching his fists. After Tina failed to
return to their private room, he called
her, but she didn’t pick up. Then, he had
the manager send the restaurant staff
in search of her. Even after checking the entire place, they could not find her.
The strange thing was that the
restaurant’s video surveillance system
was operating normally but had not captured any trace of her. Something
seemed amiss.
Back in the present, Charles curled his

Sonia gave Charles a warning glance and indicated to him to be silent. Wasn’t he seeking death to call the love of Toby’s life a
queen to his face?
