Thomas visibly quaked at this.
He furrowed his eyebrows and eyed his assistant suspiciously. "You said you don't remember that woman no matter how much I persisted with you. Heck, you even remembered the wrong person and brought back another man’s wife! If I didn't know I took away that girl's virginity that night, I might have brought another man's wife back with me.

With how prickly and spiteful Thomas' words were, it was obvious that he did not like Yannie.
Xander and the assistant looked at each other and lowered their heads as they followed him into the lift. "Since you think we’re wrong, let’s just go with that, then..."
