Theo scoffed, then he looked at the woman and said, "Get lost before I lose my temper. Otherwise, you'll join him as the sharks' breakfast."
His words were final.
The woman was stunned, perhaps she was shocked.
She paused for a moment, gave Anthony a long look, then left.
Tory picked up the glass from the coffee table and took a sip of water. He looked at Theo and said, "President Grant, you’re not very nice to women. It might be best to change that. Otherwise, your wife might just run away with another man.”
Theo gave him a sideways glance. "Ask
now.
As soon as he said that, Theo pulled me to another couch and sat down. He waited for Tory to begin questioning Anthony.
Tory clicked his tongue and glared at Anthony in an irritated manner. "This man infuriates me."
He looked at the guards at the side and gave them an order. "Go get me something fun from the kitchen. It's too boring to question him like this."
I glanced at Theo curiously, wondering what Tory meant by 'something fun'.
Theo gripped my hand. It did not seem like he was planning on telling me.
Tory looked at Anthony, who was kneeling on the floor, with a bright smile on his face. He did not look intimidating at all. " Hey Anthony, if you know what’s best for you, you'll tell us everything. I don’t want to treat you cruelly in front of a woman."
Anthony looked up in bewilderment. "What do you want me to say, Mr. Zimmerson? Tell me what you want to know and I'll tell you everything."
