"Your legs?" Sydney tried to lift her neck, wanting to check his legs. However, she could not lift her neck because his body was pressing down on her.
However, she did not dare to push him away. She was worried that pushing him would cause his injury to worsen.
Having no other choice, Sydney could only shout at the manager. "Quick, check his legs!"
"R-Right." The manager also snapped out of it and hurriedly went to look at Julien's legs.
As soon as he did, he gasped. "Madam, your husband's foot was hit by the iron frame."
All he cared about was asking the couple if they were okay. When he heard the wife say she was fine, he felt so relieved that he forgot to check the iron frame of the curtain.
Never did he expect that the man's foot would be injured by the iron frame.
Now, he was really afraid that he would not be able to keep his position as manager.
"He was hit?" Sydney's heart seized. Then, she shouted angrily, "Hurry up and call someone to move the frame away!" "I've called for someone. They'll be here right away."
The manager wiped his cold sweat and replied.
Soon, two tall waiters came over and moved the curtain out of the way, freeing Julien's legs.
The manager helped to lift Julien up from Sydney's body.
Sydney instantly relaxed without the man holding her down.
She stood up with one hand on the ground and the other holding Julien up on one side. Together with the manager, they helped Julien to the sofa in the restaurant.
"How are you feeling?" Sydney asked in concern when she saw Julien's furrowed brows and pale face.
Julien could tell that she was worried about him, and a warm feeling filled his heart. He said in a hoarse voice, "I'm fine."
Sydney looked down at his foot and suddenly squatted down. Then, she took off his shoe and his sock.
"You..." Her actions were so quick that Julien did not manage to stop her. He could only look at her, stunned.
"What? Look at your foot. You call this fine?" Sydney felt bad when she saw his swollen foot.
How many times had he been injured in order to save her?
If that continued, she would not be able to stop entangling with him.
The manager was also shocked when he saw Julien's foot. "Goodness. It's so swollen."
Davey, who had only just stopped crying, began to cry again.
He looked at Julien guiltily. "I'm sorry, Uncle Julien. I'm sorry..."
'It's my fault. Uncle Julien got hurt because I wanted the Gundam.
'I'm a bad boy.'
"Enough. Stop crying. It's just a small injury." Julien rubbed his brows as his head buzzed from Davey’s crying and said in a low voice.
Sydney stroked Davey's hair. "You're a good boy, Davey. Uncle Julien doesn't blame you, so listen to him and stop crying, okay?"
"Really?" Davey sniffled and looked at her with tears in his eyes. "Uncle Julien really doesn't blame me?"
Sydney looked at Julien.
Julien said, "I'm not petty enough to argue with a kid like you."
At least the kid had the conscience to know that
Julien was only injured because he participated in the activity.
However, he also knew that his injury was not Davey's fault. After all, no one knew that an accident like that
would happen.
"Do you hear that? Uncle Julien said that he doesn’t blame you, so don't cry." Sydney wiped Davey's tears.
"Mm-hmm." Davey nodded repeatedly.
Although the manager was puzzled as to why the little one called his dad uncle instead, he did not think much about it. With urgency, he said, "Sir and Madam, I've just called the doctor. He should be on his way, so please wait for a moment. He'll be here soon."
"That's good. Tell him to hurry, though. Julien's foot is getting more and more swollen." Sydney pointed at Julien's foot.
At that, the manager nodded. "Yes, I'll do that right away."
Soon after the manager left, Zach came over. When he saw Julien, he hurriedly asked, "President Flint, are you okay?"
He was smoking outside the restaurant when he heard the people coming out of the restaurant saying that there had been an accident with Team Five's family. As such, he hurriedly dropped his cigarette and ran in.
