“Mr. Sullivan, you just said that this person is a guest at your restaurant and you can’t ask him to leave. So, what if he is not a guest at your restaurant? Do you have the authority to kick him out, then?” Seeing that the girl in a business suit did not stop her, the pretty girl shouted at Mr. Sullivan.

“Not a guest at our restaurant?” Sullivan was stunned, looking confused when he heard that. After all, why would he be here at the New Century Restaurant if not for lunch? The restaurant manager was puzzled. “What do you mean by that, Ms. Phillips?”

“I know this person. He is a poor incel working as a food delivery guy. Do you think someone like him could afford to dine in this restaurant?” the pretty girl said insistently.

Sullivan could not help but turn to look at Connor in puzzlement.

“Look at him. He is a pauper. How could he afford to dine at the New Century Restaurant?”

“I think this young man is looking for someone here, or he has another purpose, I guess?”

“Even if he is here to look for someone, you can’t just let him in like this. It will disturb everyone dining here.”

The restaurant patrons started to discuss among themselves when they saw Connor’s appearance.

The pretty girl was even more emboldened when she heard the discussions. “Mr. Sullivan, I suspect that this person is likely to steal things here. You should quickly kick him out of here.”

The expressions of those restaurant patrons changed. They quickly checked whether they had lost anything.

Sullivan’s expression looked grave. If Connor was really like what the pretty girl said, which was coming here to steal things, he would not escape the crime if his superior were to hold him accountable.

“How would you know that I am not here for lunch? And, on what basis do you think I am a thief?” Connor took a step forward and said to the pretty girl with a bitter expression.

“Humph! How can a food delivery guy afford to dine in this place?” The pretty girl sneered dismissively.

“It is up to me if I can afford to dine here. What right do you have to stop me from dining here, and do you have any proof to show that I am a thief?” Connor said in an unusually calm tone to the pretty girl.

A sense of panic flashed in the pretty girl’s eyes when she saw the confidence in Connor’s eyes. She knew very well that the accusation was just her conjecture with no substantial evidence. Now that Connor suddenly demanded her to produce the evidence, she, of course, could not come up with any.

“Let it go, Maya.” The girl in a business suit stopped the pretty girl as she did not want to create more trouble.

“No. I am dead sure that this pauper couldn’t afford to dine here.” Still not giving up, the pretty girl pointed at Connor aggressively.

“Ms. Phillips, if you can produce the evidence that this person is not here for dining, I can ask the security guards to kick him out right away.” Sullivan stepped forward and said respectfully.
