Chapter 246 Bite Me
Jared walked over and held Makenna in his arms.
In the eyes of others, he was protecting her.
But only he knew that it was a hug of no warmth.
"Manager, how are you going to settle this?" At this time, Jeremy took off his coat and put it on Amber.
He looked at the manager and asked coldly. Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
The manager sighed, "I'm really sorry about this. We didn't expect that the chandelier would suddenly
drop. This is our fault. We will bear the full responsibility. Your meals today are free of charge. We will
also pay for all the medical expenses, and provide you with a membership card. What do you think?"
The manager's eyes darted between Jeremy and Jared.
He thought that it was up to these two men.
However, Jeremy looked at Amber and asked, "Amber, what do you think?"
Amber rubbed the space between her eyebrows and said, "Do as the manager says. After all, this isn't
his fault. No one knows in advance that the light will suddenly fall down. We were just unlucky to sit
under it."
"Alright then." Jeremy said to the restaurant manager.
The manager was very grateful, "Thank you, thank you for your understanding. I'm really sorry for
ruining your good mood."
The manager bowed to Amber and Jeremy.
After Jeremy helped the manager up, he looked at Jared and asked, "What do you think?"
Jared was afraid that Makenna would make a fuss again, so he replied quickly, "I agree with them."
The manager was grateful again.
He was afraid that these two men were not easy to deal with.
Because he knew that the young lady who had hurt her face was a tough nut to crack.
Fortunately, this man was quite considerate. Otherwise, if the young lady who had hurt her face had the
final say, she would not let it go so easily.
After solving the problem, the manager wiped the sweat on his forehead and finally felt relieved.
Suddenly, a waiter who was handling the chandelier said doubtfully, "Manager, this chandelier is so
strange."
"What's wrong?" The manager walked over.
Amber, Jeremy and Jared also turned to look curiously.
"Look." The waiter pointed at the pillar of the chandelier, "The steam is not rusty or corroded. How did it
break?"
"This..." The manager was confused, too.
The manager looked at the stem of the chandelier with a complicated expression and could not speak
for a long time.
The stem connected the chandelier with ceiling. It was extremely thick and sturdy. Moreover, it was
made of alloy. Even if there was a huge earthquake, the chandelier would not fall down off the ceiling
unless the stem was corroded.
However, the alloy material would not get rusty so easily, not after a least ten or twenty years, but this
restaurant was open for less than a year.
"Did someone damage it deliberately?" Amber narrowed her eyes and made her guess.
Jeremy nodded, "Well. Since the probability of the stem breaking itself is too small, then it's very likely
that someone has damaged it."
"Some…someone damaged it?" The manager was shocked and said in a hurry, "Sir, excuse me. We
will never hurt our customers."
"You misunderstood him. He's not talking about you." Amber smiled at the manager.
Hearing that, the manager felt relieved, but he then asked in confusion, "Then who did it?"
Amber shook her head and did not reply.
The car accident suddenly popped up in Jared's mind and gave him a sense of foreboding.
His car accident was man-made, and he hadn't found that culprit yet.
Although the chandelier ended up on Amber's table, Amber's table was less than one meter away from
his table, so he might be the real target.
Perhaps it was the same person who planned the car accident last time.
However, Jared denied his conjecture the next second.
When he and Makenna drove out, they didn't say in advance which restaurant they would go. They
decided to have a meal here out of whim.
If someone wanted to hurt him, he had to come here to arrange things ahead. But the person who
wanted to hurt him did not know that he would come here, so he could not scheme it in advance in this
restaurant.
Besides, Jeremy also denied his conjecture that this accident was man-made.
Jeremy looked up at the ceiling and then at the chandelier on the table. He was very confused, "It's so
strange."
"What's wrong, Jere?" Amber looked at him.
Jeremy touched his chin and said, "The ceiling is about ten meters high, and the ordinary ladder is not
high enough. It's almost impossible for a person to reach the chandelier with a ladder unless he has a
professional lifter. But the lifter is usually very large, and it can't be carried through the restaurant gate
at all."
The manager quickly echoed, "You're right. Our restaurant is designed in the style of a castle, so the
ceiling is very high. These chandeliers were installed with professional elevator devices. The restaurant
gate was installed after the chandeliers were done. Otherwise, the devices wouldn't be able to get in."
"So, it's not a man-made accident?" Amber frowned.
Just as Jeremy was about to answer, Makenna, who had finished with treating her wound, jumped in
the conversation, "Mr. Lynch, one second you said that this accident was man-made, but then you said
otherwise. Don't you think you are being too rash?"
Jeremy frowned.
Amber spoke up, "Jeremy just makes a reasonable inference according to the site condition. What are
you implying? What's more, don't you think you are too rude to interrupt us? Oh no, I forgot that you are
a shameless woman and you have no manners."
"Damn…" Makenna snapped.
Amber sneered, "Come on girl, bite me!"
She crooked her finger at Makenna, as if she was calling a bet.
Makenna was trembling and her eyes turned red, "You dare treat me like a dog!"
" You admit it yourself. I didn't say anything. You can be whatever you want honey. Calm down." Amber
flipped her hair back and said nonchalantly, "Jere, don't argue with Miss Gardner. After all, we are not
of same race. It's ridiculous to argue with an animal."
Jeremy knew that Amber was defending him. He felt warm in heart, and looked at her gently, "Okay, I'll
listen to you. I won't argue with an animal."
The manager stood by the side and watched the whole thing. He thought they were so aggressive.
The fight between women was indeed terrifying!
"You are too..." Makenna pointed at Amber and Jeremy with her fingers trembling violently.
But Amber and Jeremy didn't look at her and strictly obeying the rule of not arguing with an animal.
Makenna was so enraged that she almost fainted. She turned around and clutched Jared's shirt tightly.
She looked at Jared with complaint, "Jared, didn't you hear that they were insulting me?"
