Madam Escaped Again Sir novel Chapter 1003

"He's only helpful in situations like this." Toby parted his thin lips and remarked on Zane.

"If Mr. Coleman knew you looked down on him so much, President Fuller, he'd probably get angry." Tom pushed his glasses.

"And I should be afraid of that?" Toby gently raised his eyelids.

When Tom heard that, he quickly waved his hand and clarified, "No, no. You've misunderstood, President Fuller. That is not what I mean.”

"Then, shut up," Toby chided while frowning.

Shrugging, Tom then made a zipper motion with his mouth and stopped speaking.

Meanwhile, Xander dashed into the audio-visual room in the suite without knocking and simply pushing the door open. The room was dark and only the movie screen shone brightly.

The screen was showing a black-and-white film from the 1920s and the babble of singing came from the gramophone on the side, giving the entire AV room the appearance of a horror venue.

Connor sat on the single sofa in the center of the screen, dressed in a white suit. He closed his eyes, swayed his head and fingers to the music and listened intently to the musical.

Xander approached Connor carefully while glancing at the drama film on the big screen and taking in his surroundings. Even though he had seen similar scenes before, he could not help but shiver in fear at that moment.

Too bad, Xander was terrified of ghosts and not of anything else. Not to mention how playing black and white movies with horror special effects and soundtracks in an originally dark AV room heightened the dread.

"Hello, Mr. Salzburg," Xander greeted Connor respectfully and bravely approached him while lowering his head.

Connor, who was grooving to the music, came to a halt. The next moment, he slowly opened his eyes and looked at Xander in front of him. His pupils constricted, indicating that he was clearly bothered by the guy's interruption in the midst of his entertainment.

"What's the matter?" Connor inquired quietly after taking a sip of red wine to calm himself.

Although he was able to suppress his anger, Xander could still sense his boss' rage, so he lowered his head. "Mr. Salzburg. Big news. Toby has arrived."

When Connor heard this, he stopped swirling his red wine and raised his head to look at Xander. "What exactly did you say? Toby Fuller is here?"

"Yes." Xander nodded and added, "He's right outside. He has brought his assistant with him to see you."

Connor tightened his grip on the wine glass upon hearing this. He was silent for a moment before speaking again, "Did he tell you why he'd come to see me?"

Connor and Toby both believed that they would meet one day, but clearly, it was not now; not when it was a bad timing seeing that neither of them was prepared.

Still, he was not surprised when he realized Toby made no statement or moves after so many days, despite being aware of Connor's arrival.

Out of his expectation, Toby appeared at this precise moment.

This exceeded his expectations.

He picked up the remote control and pressed the pause button, bringing the movie on the screen to a halt.
