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.

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.
