Chapter 847


    Chapter 847 Aplice


    The security guards acted on the given order and they instantly surrounded the hooligans before


    mercilessly raining punches on those gangsters.


    One of the women sitting at a nearby table could no longer bear to watch the ridiculous turn of events.


    She snapped in fury, “Hey, what the hell are you doing? This is a matter between husband and wife, so


    why are you all butting your noses in?”


    The other patrons immediately voiced their protests as well and one of them shouted at the manager,


    “Yeah, this is someone else’s family affair and it’s none of your business!”


    “What, are you going to defend the old man over there just because he has money?”


    “This whole thing is ridiculous!”


    “I am nevering back to this garbage joint ever again!”


    The manager grew furious at the chorus of ignorant usations and turned to p the first woman


    across the face. Then, he retorted, “Shut up, you wh*re!”


    The woman was initially stunned before she quickly became outraged as she stood up to the manager.


    “How dare you hit me!” she shrieked. “That’s it, you’re not making it out of here tonight!” As soon as she


    said those words, the rest of her friends came forward in her defense as they were ready to pick a fight


    with the manager.


    At this moment, another group of security guards rushed in and pinned the woman and her friends on the


    ground.


    The woman was incensed. “Oh, so you think you have won because you have the numbers? Don’t forget


    that there’s something called divine justice! Can someone quickly ask the police toe now?”


    The crowd hurried to fish out their phones, taking photos and videos of this incident while iming that


    they were going to spread it around social media.


    The manager, on the other hand, looked like he was about to explode with anger as he barked, “Get the


    police?” He scoffed. “Fine, go ahead and ask them toe! It’ll save me plenty of time! I take it you have


    no idea who Miss Harrison is. She happens to be the granddaughter of Mr. Harrison over there and they


    are both regrs in our establishment, regr enough to be good friends of our boss. In fact, Miss


    Harrison is on a first name basis with our boss! Do you honestly believe the word of this bunch of


    hooligans who stormed in here and used Miss Harrison of being a cheating wife? And you’re actually


    speaking up for them too! You know what, I think you’re their aplice—you’re all part of a human


    trafficking syndicate that goes around abducting women for wicked purposes!”


    A hush descended upon the room when everyone heard his exnation. Needless to say, they were


    entirely stumped. None of them had expected for things to turn out this way; one minute, they were


    watching a scene from a soap opera and they were witnessing an attempt at human trafficking a minute


    later!


    Presently, the woman’s eyes widened in shock as she stammered pathetically, “N-No, you’re just trying


    to scare me into submission. This can’t be true!”


    The manager smirked. “Scare you? Why don’t you wait until the police arrive? Then, you’d know for sure


    whether I was only making things up to scare you!”


    At that moment, a couple of figures came running into the restaurant and the one leading them


    happened to be the mall manager.


    He had a frightened look on his face as he stumbled over to Joseph’s side and asked, “Mr. Harrison, are


    you alright? Miss Harrison, a-are you hurt?” He was out of breath as he went on to say, “I am so sorry for


    what has happened! This ispletely my fault. I should have kept an eye out. I promise I’ll look into this


    and make it up to the both of you!”


    The mall manager was considered an important member of upper-crus society and upon hearing his


    words of apology, the guests were entirely certain that Crystal was indeed Joseph’s granddaughter.


    The man’s words hung heavy in the air, which led to the crowd that burst into uproar to immediately fall


    silent. They had berated the restaurant manager earlier for poking his nose into the personal affairs of


    others and it was only now that they realized how they nearly delivered an innocent girl into the hands of


    a wicked syndicate.

    While they felt guilty over the tant misunderstanding, they were more concerned about fleeing the


    scene. After all, the hooligans from earlier would be soon handed over for a police investigation and the


    guests did not want to be involved in such troublesome matters.


    As for the woman, she began to panic and regret filled her as she chastised herself for speaking up for


    those hooligans. If I get tangled up in this mess, there’s no guarantee that I can get away unscathed!


    She struggled to get up on her knees and looked at the restaurant manager as she stammered fearfully,


    “S-Sir, I had no idea that you were speaking the truth. I didn’t even know what was going on and I


    definitely didn’t know that she’s the old man’s granddaughter. I-I have nothing to do with any of this!”


    The manager merely shot her a dark look. “If you had nothing to do with this, then why did you speak up


    in the first ce? Why did you try to stop us from taking just action?”


    The woman’s voice quivered as she exined desperately, “I… I thought that they were here to catch a


    cheating woman red-handed. I didn’t know the truth would be like this!”
