Boss, Your Wife's Asking For A Divorce, Again novel Chapter 246

Toby went over and hugged her. Everyone thought he cared about her, but only he knew this hug was only done because he didn’t want to get into trouble. “We need an explanation, manager.” Carl took his jacket off and covered Sonia with it before asking the manager coldly. I knew it. The manager sighed. “We’re very sorry, customers. We never expected this to happen. It’s an overlook on our part, so we’ll take full responsibility for this. Your bill will be waived, and we’ll pay for your medical bills. And we’ll also give you a member card. Is that fine with you?” He looked at Carl and Toby carefully, since they looked like the ones calling the shots. But Carl looked at Sonia. “What do you think, Sonia?” Sonia massaged her forehead. “Sure. It’s not completely their fault anyway. This is just an accident, and we ran straight into it.”

 

“Alright. Do as she says,” Carl replied to the manager. The manager thanked them profusely, “Thank you for your understanding. We’re very sorry for ruining the experience.” He bowed to Sonia and Carl. Carl pulled the manager back up and looked at Toby. “What about you two?” Worried Tina might go on a rampage again, Toby answered, “Same here.” The manager thanked him, since he was worried they might not let it slide so easily. It was obvious Tina was a fussy one, but luckily Toby was an understanding man, or the injury on Tina’s face alone could cost them a ton. Now that the problem was settled, the manager wiped the sweat off of his forehead and heaved a sigh of relief.

But then, the waiter who was handling the aftermath said, “Sir, something’s off with this chandelier.” “How so?” The manager went over. Carl and Sonia looked at them curiously, and even Toby shifted his attention to the chandelier. “This one.” The waiter pointed at the column. “The column isn’t rusty or corroded, so how did it break?” “Um…” The manager couldn’t come up with the answer. He kept staring at the column, but he couldn’t figure out what happened. The column connected the chandelier to the ceiling. It was big, sturdy, and made out of alloy. Not even a strong earthquake could break it unless it was corroded. However, alloys wouldn’t rust that easily. It’d take at least a decade or two to corrode, but the restaurant hadn’t been open for even a year.

Sonia squinted. “Someone might have sabotaged you guys.” Carl nodded. “It’s possible. Since it’s almost impossible to break by itself, someone might have done this.” “S-Someone did this?” Shocked, the manager said, “This is not a joke, sir. We won’t do anything to our customers. That’ll be bad for business.” Sonia smiled. “You got it wrong. He isn’t saying you guys did it.” The manager heaved a sigh of relief, but he got curious. “Then who did this?” Sonia shook her head, having no answer to his question. At the same time, Toby was reminded of his car crash. Someone planned that, but he couldn’t find the culprit even until now.
