Sir, Madam Dispeared Again After Divorce! novel Chapter 246

Julien went over and held Lyra in his arms.

In the eyes of outsiders, it was because he was heartbroken for her.

However, only he himself knew that the hug was devoid of warmth.

"Manager, how do you plan to handle this matter?" While Layden took off his jacket and draped it over Sydney, he looked at the manager and asked coldly.

The manager's heart sank, and he sighed before saying, "Sirs and Ma'ams, I'm terribly sorry about what happened. We didn't expect the chandelier to fall so suddenly either. This matter is completely our fault, and we will take full responsibility for it. We'll exempt the four of you from the bill, pay all the medical fees of the two ladies, and also grant you a membership card. What do you think?"

The manager cautiously looked at Layden and then at Julien.

In his opinion, the decision was in the hands of those two men.

However, Layden looked at Sydney instead and asked, "Sydney, what do you think?"

Sydney rubbed her temples. "Let’s just go with what the manager said. After all, we can't blame this matter on the restaurant either. No one knew that the chandelier would suddenly fall. We were just unlucky enough to be sitting under it."

"In that case, we'll do as she says," Cayden replied to the restaurant manager.

The manager was incredibly grateful. "Thank you, thank you. Thank you both for your understanding. My deepest apologies for ruining your good mood."

Then, he bowed to Sydney and Cayden.

After Cayden helped him up, he looked to Julien's side as well. "What about you, sir?"

Julien was worried that Lyra would cause trouble again, so he pursed his lips, taking the initiative to reply, "We'll go with their wishes too."

The manager was incredibly grateful.

He was afraid that those two would be more troublesome to deal with.

After all, anyone with a discerning eye could tell that the lady who hurt her face was a difficult person.

Fortunately, the gentleman was quite understanding. If it were the lady who hurt her face, she would definitely not let the matter rest so easily.

After solving the guests' problems, the manager wiped the sweat from his head and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Right then, a waiter who was cleaning up the chandelier said in confusion, "Sir, this chandelier is very strange."

"What's wrong?" The manager walked over.

Sydney and Layden also looked over curiously.

Even Julien turned his gaze over there.

"It's this part." The waiter pointed at the pillar of the chandelier. "The pillar isn't rusted or corroded. How did it break?"

"That's..." The question stunned the manager.

He looked at the pillar of the chandelier with a mix of expressions and could not find the words to say for a long time.

The pillar connecting the chandelier to the ceiling was very thick and strong. It was made of alloy and was incredibly firm. Unless the pillar had rusted, it would not fall from the ceiling even if there was a 10.0 magnitude earthquake.

Alloy would not rust easily, and it would take a decade or two for it to decay. However, the restaurant had been open for less than a year.

"Did someone tamper with it?" Sydney narrowed her eyes and suddenly spoke up.

Layden nodded. "That's very possible. If the chances of the pillar breaking by itself are too small, maybe someone deliberately broke it." "D-Deliberately?" Stunned, the manager hurriedly said, "Sir, please don't say such nonsense. How could we have tried harming our esteemed customers? We'd be courting death if we did."
