After Tom dropped the bomb on Harry and Lynette, he swept his mocking gaze across them and donned a gloating smirk as he watched the radical changes in their expressions. Then, he closed the suite door and went out with the two bodyguards.
"Guard this room, and don't let anyone get in or out of it, including the waiters. If they want anything, ask the other teammates to prepare it, and make sure the item is sent in by one of us," Tom sternly instructed the two bodyguards.
The two bodyguards knew that Toby severely punished their seniors because they allowed the waiter in earlier, so they knew how essential and crucial their task was. Thus, they did not dare to slack off even the slightest. Otherwise, they would face severe punishment, just like their poor seniors.
"Got it, Mr. Brown. Don't worry. We won't let you and Mr. Fuller down," the two bodyguards assured him.
Tom graced them with a pleased nod, turned around, and left. He still had matters to report to Toby. Ah, the work of the secretary never ends.
Meanwhile, in the suite, Harry and Lynette gradually came to their senses after Tom's departure. Finally, Harry glared at Lynette in dismay. "Did you push Sonia?"
"No, Grandpa!" Lynette shook her head violently. "I didn't push her."
"Why did Tom say those things if you didn't push her?" Harry did not believe her words.
He raised her, so how could he not know her like the back of his hand? He knew that she was a scheming and ruthless liar.
He enabled her in the past because he thought that by behaving like this, she could protect herself, achieve her goals, and benefit the family. Hence, he never thought there was anything wrong with her acting like this. However, now he had a change of heart.
Due to her nasty behavior, she successfully forced him and the family to a dead end. Therefore, he didn't think it was right for her to do such things. In fact, he was frustrated that she had fibbed to him.
Lynette could tell that he was angry judging from the undisguised sullen expression on Harry's face, and her heart skipped a beat. Despite her fearless demeanor, she was genuinely afraid of Toby and Harry.
It was just that Harry had always donned the genial grandparent persona when it came to her and rarely glared at her with such a scary look. So, she had always been carefree and bold whenever she was with Harry.
But she felt jittery and uneasy once she saw that Harry was upset because of her. "Grandpa..." she mumbled timidly and swallowed her saliva nervously.
Harry snapped indignantly, "Didn't you say you were meeting Toby and would execute our plan for tonight when you left the room? So, why did you have to go and mess with that woman again? We said that our only target tonight was Toby, not that chick. So, just ignore her and don't do anything silly. Now, look at what you've done! Not only were you unable to persuade Toby, but you even went to push that woman! Just look at the mess you've made!"
