Tyler wiped his face as he raised his head. This time, it was devoid of tears. He forced a smile on his face that looked dazzling if you didn't stare closely. He patted Drake's shoulders and said, "I'll be back in a minute. You have to calm down."
He didn't wait for the man's reply before he turned and dashed out of the room while dragging James with him. Drake, who was too shocked a while ago, finally reacted. He reached out his hand at the place where Tyler was sitting a moment ago. His heart screamed only one sentence in the repeat:
"Don't let him go."
His throat went dry as tears pricked at the corner of his eyes. He didn't know why he was reacting this way, but he couldn't bear to part with the man. So he pushed himself off and stepped on the floor. As soon as his feet touched the ground, he fell.
He raised his head and looked in the direction where Tyler had gone. His lips parted as he spoke in a low tone: "Do-Don't go."
