Chapter 258: Sean Fell
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
After dinner, everyone walked out of the restaurant.
Perhaps it was because Laura, Sean, and Sandra had drunk too much, they were walking unsteadily, so they needed someone to help them.
Freya supported Laura, Qahira supported Sandra, and Sean followed Shane to the car. So, Connor supported Sean.
“Sean, be careful…”
Connor reached out to support Sean.
“I don’t need your help. Get lost!”
Sean was angry when he saw Connor, so he pushed Connor away and staggered forward.
Connor looked at Sean with a hint of helplessness.
‘Crash!’
At this moment, a loud bang suddenly came from the restaurant.
Connor quickly looked up and saw that Sean, who had not walked far, suddenly slipped and fell to the ground.
Sean’s fall was not serious, but he hit the vase in the dining hall corridor when he fell.
How could a vase withstand Sean’s weight? So, Sean knocked the vase over.
The vase fell to the ground and instantly shattered into pieces.
When the employees in the restaurant heard that, they were all dumbfounded. They turned to look at Sean.
Sean had drunk a little too much while dining, so his feet were weak when he walked. In addition, the tiles in the dining hall were a little slippery, so he accidentally fell to the ground.
If only Sean fell, it would not be a big problem. After all, his body was still healthy and strong, and he would not be hurt even if he fell.
But the problem was that when Sean fell, he accidentally knocked over the vase in the restaurant corridor.
The one-meter-tall vase ‘exploded’ into thousands of pieces in all directions, attracting the attention of many.
When the pretty receptionist saw that, she gasped, and her face was filled with indescribable shock.
“Dad, are you alright?” Freya cried out in surprise and hurriedly ran to Sean’s side, reaching out to help him.
Connor stood behind Sean and the others helplessly. This wouldn’t have happened if Sean had let Connor help him leave.
However, Sean insisted on pushing Connor away and walking alone.
Following Sean’s fall, Laura, Sandra, and the others instantly sobered up and gathered around Sean to check on him.
When they saw that Sean was fine, they were relieved.
‘Shuffling!’
However, at this moment, four or five security guards rushed out of the restaurant and surrounded Sean and the others.
“Who broke the vase?” A middle-aged man with a greasy face walked up to Sean and the others and questioned them angrily.
“Mr. Wall, this is the person who broke the vase!”
The receptionist had witnessed everything that had just happened, so she quickly ran to the middle-aged man and pointed at Sean.
“Sir, you broke this vase, right?” Mr. Wall gritted his teeth and asked Sean.
“That’s right. I accidentally fell just now and broke this vase. How much is this vase? 1’11 compensate you!” Sean had sobered up after his fall.
He knew that the vase was broken because of him. Moreover, Sean was quite famous in Phillips Estate, so he naturally wouldn’t go back on his word. Therefore, no matter how much the vase was worth, he would compensate them accordingly!
“Alright, since you’ve admitted it, 1 won’t call the police. Let’s settle this privately!” Mr. Wall replied.
“Stop dawdling. Hurry up and tell us how much this vase costs. We’ll compensate you!” Laura did not realize the seriousness of the matter at all. So she spoke loudly.
In her opinion, this vase was no different from those on the street. Even if it were slightly more expensive, it would only cost a few thousand dollars at most. This small amount of money was nothing to the Phillips Family.
“Madam, this vase doesn’t belong to our restaurant. It’s the personal property of our restaurant’s general manager, Mr. Jenkins. It’s only placed here for the guests to admire, so 1 need to call Mr. Jenkins now to ask how much this vase is worth!” Mr. Wall said calmly.
“So what are you waiting for? Hurry up and make the call!”
After Sandra knew that the vase was Mr. Jenkins, she seemed to become even more arrogant.
Previously, in the private room, Mr. Jenkins had been submissive to Shane. Sandra felt that now that Shane was here, Mr. Jenkins would not be calculative with her about a vase.
In this case, it would further emphasize Shane’s influence.
“By the way, tell Mr. Jenkins that the person who broke the vase was Shane’s uncle!” When Sandra saw that Mr. Wall was about to make a call, she quickly added.

Hearing this, Mr. Wall looked at Sandra indifferently and nodded. “Alright, I got it!”
After saying this, Mr. Wall took his phone and walked to the side. He dialed Titus’s number.
Sandra turned to Sean and said, “Sean, don’t worry. Shane has a good relationship with Mr. Jenkins. Moreover, this vase shouldn’t be worth much. 1 think he’ll let us go in a while…”
“I’m in the wrong today. I will pay if 1 can!” Sean said lightly.
“Right. To fall on such a flat road…” Laura sighed sadly.
“If it wasn’t because someone insisted on helping, how would I fall?”
Sean was furious when he heard this. He turned and glared at Connor.
Connor stood awkwardly. He sighed internally. He had gone to help Sean up out of kindness. Now, Sean blamed him for falling simply because he helped him. Connor really didn’t know what to say.
After a while, Mr. Wall finished his call and returned to Sean and the others.
“What did Mr. Jenkins say?” Sandra asked Mr. Wall curiously.
“Mr. Jenkins said he would come over to deal with this immediately. He hopes that you can wait a moment!” Mr. Wall replied expressionlessly.
“All, isn’t it just a vase? Is there a need to make Mr. Jenkins make another trip? What couldn’t he say directly?” Sandra retorted impatiently.
“This is what Mr. Jenkins said. Mr. Jenkins should have just left not long ago. He should be back soon!” Mr. Wall said calmly.
Shane hesitated before continuing, “Sandra, why don’t you go to the car with Sean and the others first? I’ll stay behind and wait for Mr. Jenkins to come over to deal with this!”
Shane said this not to help Sean but to find a chance to talk to Titus alone.
Shane wanted to know why Titus was so respectful to him today.
As for the broken vase, Shane did not take it to heart because he also felt it was not worth much. At most, he would compensate Sean himself.
After everyone heard Shane, they all turned to look at Shane.. Their favorable impression of Shane improved even more!
