The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet (Thalassa and Elowen) novel Chapter 1570

Spencer glanced over at Emmeline, just as he was about to speak, a loud crash thundered from behind them.

Spencer and Emmeline quickly turned around, only to find the young waiter they had seen earlier, collapsed on the floor, his back having slammed into a chair, causing the racket. Beads of sweat dotted his forehead, his breathing heavy and panicked.

It was only after Georgia had left that he visibly relaxed, slumping to the ground in relief.

Spencer stepped forward to help the waiter up. "It's okay, no worries. If that woman bothers you again, give this guy a call."

Spencer pulled out his phone, scrolled to Alaric's contact, and showed it to the waiter. Alaric was probably the only one who could handle Georgia's arrogance.

The waiter quickly bowed in thanks. "Sir, thank you so much, I can't thank you enough."

"Don't mention it. That burn looks pretty bad, you should get it treated right away," Spencer said with concern. The waiter's hand, initially just reddened, now sported blisters from the burn - no small matter.

"Thank you, I'll see to it right away," the waiter said, bowing before attempting to leave.

The manager stopped him in his tracks. "Where do you think you're going during your shift?"

"Manager, my hand is injured like this. It wouldn't be proper for the customers to see me serving food like this. I'm just going to treat my wound and then I'll be right back," the waiter tried to explain.

The manager spun around, his demeanor threatening, aware that having antagonized Georgia, his days were now numbered. And now, with the waiter gone, he was left without anyone to cover for him if Georgia sought revenge.

Seeing the manager's hostile stance, Spencer quickly positioned Emmeline behind him and said, "We pay at the counter, right? We're done here, let's go settle the bill."

With that, he took Emmeline by the hand and headed to the front, wary of any trouble from the manager.

Fortunately, they left the diner without further incident, the manager not daring to follow.
