The Vengeful Son-in-law novel Chapter 266

"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.

The room was very quiet, and only the occasional sound of cars coming from afar could be heard. The sound insulation of the house was very good. If Tom hadn't been sensitive enough, he wouldn't have heard such subtle footsteps!

Moreover, the footsteps were clearly Phoebe's.

Tom's heart beat faster all of a sudden. Why did Phoebe come to his room in the middle of the night?

The sound of footsteps reached the door of the room and stopped. Tom's heart beat faster. But after waiting for almost a minute, Phoebe didn't do anything else. Tom's heartbeat slowly returned to normal. He thought that Phoebe should have happened to pass by.

Yes, according to his understanding of Phoebe, Phoebe was a very shy and reserved person. It was impossible for her to come to his room in the middle of the night. Moreover, they were divorced now. Phoebe was a very conservative person, and she would not break into his room at this time.

Thinking of this, Tom's nervous mood slowly relaxed, and then closed his eyes again, ready to continue sleeping.

However, not long after he closed his eyes, there was a sound of the doorknob suddenly!

In an instant, Tom was startled and opened his eyes abruptly. His relaxed mood suddenly became nervous again!

Phoebe was going to enter his room!

Besides, he didn't lock the door from inside, so Phoebe would "break in" soon.

Sure enough, two seconds later, the door was opened. Tom was lying on the bed, and he could clearly see that from the corridor outside, a little light came in through a crack in the door,!

And on the wall by the bed, a woman's figure was projected. Who else was there beside Phoebe?

At this moment, Tom's heart was beating fast.

It was so quiet in the room that he didn't even dare to take a deep breath, afraid that Phoebe would know that he wasn't asleep yet.

Moreover, even he himself did not know why he was nervous. He and Phoebe had been married for four years. Even if they were divorced now, their relationship had returned to normal. They would remarry sooner or later. Most importantly, Tom had saved Phoebe tonight...

No matter what, Tom had no reason to be nervous, but Tom was nervous now.

In his mind, when he thought of some images, he was unable to calm down his surging emotions.

The door opened a little bit, and Phoebe put her head in and asked softly, "Tom, are you asleep?"

Her voice was low and gentle, and there was a slight tremor in her tone. One could tell that she was nervous upon hearing her voice.

Tom secretly opened his eyes. On the wall by the bed, he could see Phoebe's shadow. He wanted to respond, but his mouth could not say anything. It was as if he was bound by some invisible force.

Tom thought that if he didn't speak and pretended to sleep, Phoebe would leave. However, Phoebe didn't do that. She asked again in a louder voice, but Tom didn't respond. Then, she opened the door till it was half-opened and she walked in, looking very careful...

Tom's ears were so sharp that even through a soundproof door, he could hear Phoebe's footsteps, let alone Phoebe was already in the room!

Now that he heard Phoebe's footsteps getting closer and closer, and he even smelled the scent of Phoebe's unique fragrance floating in the air and he became even more nervous. In addition to being nervous, there was some indescribable excitement...

Vaguely, he was looking forward to something.

Finally, after about five seconds, Phoebe finally walked over to Tom's bed and she asked softly again, "Tom, are you asleep?"
