“I can’t. I made a promise to him.” The man kept himself together and calmed himself down, defying Toby while shaking his head.

Toby felt his anger surging through him once again as he clenched his fist and growled, “You can’t? This has always been a matter between you and Tina, which has absolutely nothing to do with me at all. Since the person who matters the most to you loves Tina so much, why don’t you hypnotize her and make them love each other? Why must I be the one who gets sacrificed?”

A sad look flashed across the man’s emotionless eyes. “It’s too late…”

“What do you mean?”

 

The man didn’t answer Toby’s question. Instead, he stepped forward and raised his hand in the air, snapping his fingers in front of Toby and Tom as they warily watched. As soon as they both heard the snap, Toby’s mind went blank, his eyes turning soulless and lifeless. At the same time, Tom, who was sitting in the car behind him, was also put in a mindless trance at the sight of that.

By the time they came back to their senses, the man was long gone, and they had no idea when he left. “President Fuller!” Tom grabbed an umbrella and ran toward Toby. “What happened? Who’s that man?”

Nevertheless, Toby didn’t answer his assistant’s question, only walking back to the car with an ambiguous look on his face. Meanwhile, Tom grabbed a towel from his storage box and gave it to Toby. “Please wipe yourself, President Fuller.”
