Chapter 590 The Food Poisoning (Part Two) (1/2)
”Mr. Eric Long, the... child... Is he okay now?” The manager summoned up his courage and asked.
”Where's the juice?” Eric asked directly, ignoring the manager's question.
”We preserved it as you commanded, sir,” The manager hastily replied as he led Eric to the kitchen where the juice was stored, and said, ”We also asked that the waiter who served the juice and the man who made the juice stay here. Do you want to see them now?”
Eric followed the manager to the kitchen wordlessly. When they were just nearing the kitchen door, they heard a clatter. Something had obviously broken.
”Why'd you break the juice cup?”
”...”
After a sound of exclamation, there was a silence in the kitchen, and the atmosphere just tensed up.
The manager's face twisted into horror. He rushed to the kitchen to find the cook assistant holding a water pipe. On the ground lay the fragments of the juice cup. The orange juice had already been washed away by the water that spilled out of the pipe. There was no way they could test the juice now.
The manager's face turned so ugly that his lips even twitched as he looked at the almost colorless orange juice on the floor that had been washed away by the water. He couldn't help but cry in his heart, ”I am so doomed!”
”Ma-, Manager, I, I didn't mean to... ”
The manager sprang to his feet, ”What good does that do?” If I killed you, can I just say in court, 'Oh, I didn't mean to kill him, ' Does that work for you? Can I do that?”
Eric was seething as he watched the entire scene unfold. Suddenly, he narrowed his eyes and a spine-chilling wicked smile appeared on his face that made all of the people in the kitchen freeze in fear.
”Very well!” Eric said slowly as he looked at the assistant and continued, ”How much did you get to do this?”
”What... what do you mean?” The cook assistant didn't know who Eric was, but he was very scared of him.
