Chapter 538 Toby’s Bodyguards

“Right away,” Tom replied solemnly, then left to carry out Toby’s orders.

Presently, Sonia lifted her arm to glance at her watch and saw that it was drawing close to 4.30PM. Letting her arm fall back to her side, she was about to bid goodbye to Toby when he beat her to the chase. “Well, if you’re going to sign off on the factory, then you should probably get going now. Go straight home as soon as you’re done, or it won’t be safe after nightfall.”

He nodded once, then sent out instructions through his phone. After that, he set his phone aside and announced, “Done. You can head down to the lobby now; the team I’ve arranged to escort you will be waiting for you there.”

 

“Okay. I’ll
