Outside Rob's office everything was silent.
The entire LWC felt like a library to Rob. The usual liveliness and busy atmosphere was nowhere to be seen.
Yesterday, many people had known that Mr. Gibson was angry with Robin and was divvying up his power. But, no one knew the reason for such actions.
However, before Mr. Gibson could give an explanation, today's news changed things dramatically. Now, most would believe that Mr. Gibson was aware of Robin's departure and was angry with it. No amount of pouring dirty laundry on Robin would change their impression.
Robin had effectively turned the tables on Mr. Gibson. Mr. Gibson would look petty if he slandered Robin now. This way, Robin had effectively tied Mr. Gibson's hands.
Rob had to admit that this was a brilliant masterstroke.
