“Yes.” Tina nodded. “I’m at the lobby.”

 

Toby massaged his forehead. “I see. We can talk after the meeting’s done, so wait for me there.” With that, he ended the call.

After Toby came back into the conference room, everyone stopped gossiping. Toby’s face fell, and when he realized Sonia was smirking at him, he knew everyone was talking about him in his absence. “Let’s resume the meeting,” he said darkly.

The meeting lasted for more than an hour, but eventually, it came to an end.
