"Tom, you hurt Colin so hard just now. Will he call the police in the future?"
On the way back, Phoebe asked worriedly.
Tom said, "No, he doesn't have the guts."
"But his father is one of the bosses of Forever Properties. He has a powerful background. He was hurt so hard by you just now. Will he really not call the police?" Phoebe was still very worried. It was a society ruled by law, and Tom beat people in front of others and broke Colin's fingers. Tom's behavior could be considered to be illegal.
Tom knew Phoebe was worried. He held Phoebe's hand and smiled, "Don't worry, he won't call the police. Even if he calls the police, I don't have to be afraid of him."
Seeing that Tom was so confident, Phoebe's uneasy feelings calmed down a lot.
Back at the villa in Dragon Bay, Elizabeth and James had already gone to bed.
Although Phoebe's whole family had moved in now, Phoebe and Tom had not remarried. Strictly speaking, they were just ordinary friends, so they did not sleep in the same room.
This villa was very big, and any room was very big, and they were all suites. After Tom went upstairs, he wanted to say something, but he didn't say it in the end.
"Well..."
After two steps, Phoebe suddenly turned around and spoke to Tom.
"Ah? What's wrong?" Tom asked.
Phoebe was silent for a moment with a strange expression on her face, and her eyes flickered as she looked at Tom. She bit her lower lip gently as if she had something to say, but in the end, she didn't say it. Instead, she shook her head and said softly, "Thank you for what happened tonight. I've always caused you trouble. I'm sorry."
Facing Phoebe's sudden seriousness and strangeness, Tom smiled bitterly and said, "Why are you so polite all of a sudden? I'm your husband..."
At this point, Tom realized that something was wrong. He held back the words and changed his words. He said, "We are friends. I can't let you die if you are in trouble."
Phoebe bit her lips harder, sighed slightly, and said, "Yes, we are friends..."
Both of them fell silent in tacit agreement. After a while, Tom said, "It's getting late. Why don't you rest first? You have to go to work tomorrow."
"Yes, okay."
After saying that, they all began to return to their respective rooms.
When they all returned to their rooms, they closed the door and stood against it for a few minutes...
Tom took a shower. There were a lot of things that had happened today. First, he asked Raven for information about his mother and the LT Organization. Then, Master Chou appeared and killed Raven with a slap. Then, he went to Phoebe and taught Colin a lesson.
Too many things happened to Tom. Even with his tenacity, he was inevitably a little tired.
After thinking for half an hour, Tom was a little sleepy, and he simply stopped thinking about it. There were still a lot of things that he needed to do next. He had to recover his energy.
Turning off the light, he covered himself with the quilt and was about to go to sleep when suddenly he heard a slight footstep coming from outside the door and he opened his eyes again in an instant.
