Chapter 1295 Begging for Mercy

“Is that so?” Toby did not react much. “Yeah. I heard the girls were properly schooled by their parents.” Tom stole a glance at the rearview mirror. “But I didn’t have the time to check on the situation because I was with you. I got the news from the professional bodyguards we hired. If the bodyguards said it was bad, it must have been serious.”

“The parents are putting on a show for us.” Toby went back to caressing Sonia’s face. “The harder they beat their daughters, the more they could show how determined they are at disciplining their kids. They hope we will feel bad and overlook this incident.”

“Put it bluntly, it is another attempt to gain sympathy.” Tom shrugged. “Ignore them and do what is necessary. Look into these families for any criminal records. If there is, collect the evidence and hand it over to the inspectors—they happen to be investigating Triforce Enterprise recently and will be around for a while,” Toby instructed unemotionally.

Tom nodded and asked, “What if there’s nothing?” “In that case, let’s get their business partners to cancel their partnerships as a warning.” Toby was stern and unyielding.

“Got it,” Tom answered, knowing that Toby was being lenient this time. It made sense to cancel part of the business partnerships if they did not have prior criminal records. The two families should be thankful instead for not having all the partnerships canceled—at least they were spared.

“Judging from the behavior of their children, I do not believe that their families have squeaky clean records,” Toby scoffed. Tom agreed with him and nodded. He asked, “Should we release them home?”

“There’s no point in keeping them under arrest. Send them back but keep an eye on them, in case they are thinking of running away. Once the evidence has been collected, hand it over to the police,” Toby instructed Tom while pulling the jacket on Sonia to keep her warm. Tom answered, “Understood.”

They spent the rest of the trip in silence. Only the sound of shallow breathing could be heard in the car.

Half an hour later, they arrived at Toby’s luxurious penthouse downtown. Tom parked the car and immediately went down to open the car doors for Toby and Sonia.
