“You had better get down on your knees and apologize quickly. Maybe I will let you go if you can please me. Or else, I will call the manager and he will fire you.” The pretty girl said smugly with her arms akimbo.
“If you want the manager to fire me, then please do it quick. I’m not working here anyway,” Connor said faintly.
“Heck!” the pretty girl sneered. “Stop pretending in front of me. If you’re not an employee, are you a customer here? Do you think 1 don’t know about you? Hugh told me at Porthampton University yesterday; you are just a poor food delivery guy.”
Not feeling in the mood to talk to her, Connor turned around and wanted to leave.
“Did I say you can go?” The pretty girl grabbed Connor and continued. “It’s not easy for you to get a job here, right? At the very least, you can earn more over here than delivering food. And, the job looks more decent. Do you really want to lose this job?”
“Please take your hands off me. I am not an employee here, and 1 have already apologized to you yesterday. Why are you still harping on it?” Connor said impatiently. The girl had an almost perfect-looking face and body. The only thing was that her personality was unflattering. So, Connor did not like her at all.
“You still want to pretend, huh? I will see how long you can pretend.” The pretty girl pulled out her mobile phone and made a call as she spoke. “Hey, is this Mr. Sullivan?” the girl asked with a frown.
“This is Sullivan speaking. How may 1 help you, Ms. Phillips?”
“An employee of your restaurant tried to rape me. Hurry come over here and fire this person. Or else, 1 will call the police.” The girl shouted cynically.
“Don’t be angry, Ms. Phillips. I will go over there now.” If news of an employee attempting to rape a female customer leaked out, it would send a fatal blow to the image of the New Century Restaurant. So, the manager sounded nervous.
“It’s in front of the ladies’ room. Come over here,” the pretty girl said and then hung up. “Mr. Sullivan will be here soon. I will see what you can do.” She clutched Connor’s clothes and said smugly.
“I told you I am not an employee here. It’s useless for you to call the manager over,” Connor said helplessly.
“Humph! I see you are afraid now.” She snickered and continued. “If you kneel and apologize to me now, 1 will let you go. Otherwise, just wait to be fired.”
Connor looked at the girl in front of her, and he hesitated for a moment before saying in a low voice, “Okay, then wait for the manager.”
“You—” The pretty girl did not expect that Connor was still so defiant at this point. She hesitated and said nothing. She waited for the restaurant manager to come over and fix Connor.
After a while, Mr. Sullivan arrived with seven or eight security guards and came toward where Connor and the pretty girl were. The large group of people instantly attracted everyone’s attention.
“Are you alright, Ms. Phillips?” Mr. Sullivan trotted up to the pretty girl and asked nervously.
“This employee of your restaurant just deliberately threw water in my face. I demand that you fire him immediately.” Seeing that the customers in the restaurant were looking at her, she was too embarrassed to say that Connor had tried to rape her. So, she came up with another excuse.
Mr. Sullivan quickly turned to look at Connor in puzzlement.
“What are you waiting for, Mr. Sullivan? Fire this guy for me, right away!” The girl got upset when she saw that Sullivan stood on the spot and said nothing.
“Ms. Phillips, you—you must have made a mistake here. He is not our employee.” Sullivan looked at the girl helplessly.
“He is not an employee in your restaurant?” The pretty girl was startled for a moment, looking surprised.
“I told you earlier that I am here for lunch, and you still didn’t believe me,” Connor said.
The girl blushed, gritting her teeth indignantly. “Mr. Sullivan, even if he is not an employee here, can’t you kick him out?”
“Aren’t you putting me on the spot, Ms. Phillips? You are both guests in our restaurant. How can I ask our guests to leave?” Mr. Sullivan was in a pickle.
“You—” The pretty girl could not find a word to respond. Her face looked angry.
“What’s going on, Maya?” Just then, a sweet graceful voice came from among the crowd.
Everyone, including Connor, turned their heads instinctively and looked in the voice’s direction. When Connor saw the woman, he was rooted to the spot, looking shocked.
There were many beautiful girls at Porthampton University, but Connor felt that no one got as close as this woman in front of him. Even Mandy and May were no match for this woman’s beauty. She was wearing a black business suit and tight stockings on her long legs. She was tall, plump, and attractive.
Connor’s eyeballs almost popped out of their sockets with a fiery fire burning inside. In his imagination, a cold and beautiful woman like her would only exist in a TV series. Seeing one in real life felt so unreal. Connor wondered how such amazing beauty could exist in the real world.
After waiting for a long time in the private dining room and the pretty girl had not returned, the girl in a business suit was worried and came out looking for her. She never expected to see the pretty girl having a conflict with a guy as soon as she came out.
“What happened, Maya?” The girl in a business suit asked with a frown and could not help but turn her head to look at Connor.
“This jerk bullied me just now.” The pretty girl came up to the girl in a business suit and said in a crying voice.
“How did he bully you?” the girl in a business suit asked.
“He threw water in my face,” the pretty girl said, looking pitiful.
The girl in a business suit turned her head and looked at Connor, then at the girl again. “I think he probably didn’t mean it, Maya. Just let the matter rest.”
Connor was impressed when he heard that, feeling that this woman was much more sensible than the nasty pretty girl.
“There is something that you may not know. He did it deliberately,” the pretty girl said.
“How do you know he did it deliberately?”
The girl in a business suit knew her cousin’s attitude well. Her charming smile instantly captivated everyone, including Connor, at the scene.
The pretty girl hesitated, and then, she walked over to the girl in a business suit and whispered something in her ear. There was a strange look that flashed in the eyes of the girl in a business suit, but she said nothing..Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
