Tom had a death grip on Charles outside the door because he was afraid that Charles would cause a ruckus in the room. On the other hand, Charles could only look at the ceiling in helplessness.

The door opened at that moment.

Immediately, Charles’ eyes brightened as he turned toward the door, thinking that it was Sonia. However, his face darkened when he saw Tyler and snapped, “Toby, you better ask your man to let me go!”

After Toby glanced at him, he turned toward Tom. “Let him go.”

 

Tom then released his grip on Charles.

Once Charles was freed, he walked over and stood in Toby’s way. “Why were you inside for so long? What did you say to Sonia?”

“It’s none of your business,” Toby replied before he headed to the elevator while Tom ran after him.

At the same time, Charles watched them entering the elevator before he left with a dark look on his face. Then, he swung his aching arm that was forcefully grabbed earlier before pushing the door to enter Sonia’s office.
