Chapter 218 gives me an explanation
Melrose Avenue is the main commercial street of West Hollywood, once the police are called, the police station is very fast, and within ten minutes, a police car stopped in front of the restaurant, and two white police officers walked down.
John glanced at the police car and turned back to KA for a moment. KA nodded, then walked out, blocked the door of the two policemen who were about to enter the restaurant, and then took out his ID and said a few words, and the two policemen glanced at the restaurant through the glass door and left without looking back.
"What's going on?"
Cross and Denis Bernard looked at each other with inquiring expressions in their eyes.
Naturally, they didn't know that KA showed the Secret Service ID to the two policemen, and the Secret Service was the leader of the bodyguard structure, and there were big people in the places where these people were, so whoever had a little brain should go as far as he could at this time, and who would find himself unhappy.
"How's it going, do you still need to call the police?" John said, looking up at his watch. "Mr. Bernard, I have to remind you that eighteen minutes are still half an hour. ”
Denis Bernard was a little nervous, if he had been dismissive of John's words before, now he had to face it after seeing the police being sent away so easily. You must know that you can't even taste the ups and downs without a tongue, and you still be a chef like this. But just now I defended the principle with a righteous face, and now I am compromising like this, and it seems that I have not insisted on it.
Just when Denis Bernard was thinking hard about how to choose, the restaurant manager Cross on the side was also thinking, but he didn't care about Denis Bernard's tongue, whether Denis Bernard had a tongue or not had nothing to do with him, but if the restaurant was really burned by John, the boss would also pour a barrel of gasoline on him, so for the sake of his life, he could only temporarily compromise and appease John.
"Denis! go make a fully cooked steak for Director Chris Deng. Cross gritted his back molars, and the reason he was angry was not because he wanted to compromise with Denis Bernard's principles, but because John dared to endanger himself.
Denis Bernard, who was on the side, heard this, instead of being angry, not angry, but a little relaxed, using his tongue to defend principles, he really didn't have the courage, but he needed a step to convince himself.
Now that there are steps, he doesn't have to continue to insist, he can compromise with peace of mind.
Seeing Denis Bernard walk into the back kitchen, John's expression was flat, he had long expected this, so there was no surprise.
But Cross was angry, and after seeing Denis Bernard leave, he also wanted to leave, but before leaving, he let out a cruel word. "Director Cross Deng, we have fulfilled your request, and I wish you a pleasant meal. Also, I hope you can withstand the wrath of my boss. ”
Vickers Restaurant can stand tall on the bustling Melrose Avenue, and in addition to the excellent food taste, it also has a powerful owner behind it.
"Thank you for your concern. John was dismissive of Chris's threats. "I'm generally very affordable. ”
"I hope so. Cross gave John a hateful look, and turned to walk towards the bar.
Walking to the bar, he felt that the incident should be reported to the boss immediately, mainly because he wanted to see John's bad luck immediately, so he picked up the phone and dialed.
John, who was sitting not far away, saw all this, but he didn't stop it, but instead saw the corners of Kross's mouth slightly hooked after making a phone call.
Cross's calls were transferred one by one, and after several transfers, they ended up in Arnold Parker's office at the Rockefeller estate on Long Island, New York.
Arnold Parker immediately hung up the phone when he received the call and heard Cross's report of what John had done at Vickers' restaurant, and got up to find his boss. Others may not know who John is, but as Charles's assistant, he can't be clearer, so this matter is beyond his ability, and Charles can only come forward in person.
He was very fast, and it didn't take long for him to come to the door of Charles's study, knock on the door a few times, and walk in.
"Sir, there's something you need to take care of. Arnold Parker looked at Charles behind his desk.
"What's the matter?" Charles didn't look up, his eyes kept looking at a report in his hand.
"JK is now dining at one of our West Hollywood restaurants......"
"He can cook whatever he wants, give him whatever he wants, do you need to tell me about this kind of thing?" Charles looked up at Arnold Parker with some dissatisfaction.
"But......" Arnold Parker bowed his head slightly. "JK wants to burn down our restaurant and cut out our chef's tongue. ”
"What's going on?" asked Charles, frowning, placing the report on the table and looking at Arnold Parker.
"Here's the thing......"
Arnold Parker said Cross's words word for word, Charles's whole face darkened after listening to it, John's approach was too domineering, the most important thing is that this restaurant is still his, and John can be said to not give him face by doing so.
"What does he want to do?" said Charles, looking at Arnold Parker in a cold voice. "Call the restaurant right away, I'm going to talk to him. ”
For Charles, face is sometimes more important than money, and John is now slapping him in the face.
Arnold Parker, who was on the side, hurriedly picked up the landline on the table and broadcast the number, and handed it directly to Charles after passing.
"Let Director Chris Deng answer the phone!"
Charles shouted into the microphone, and Cross on the other end of the phone knew that it was his boss when he heard this cold voice, and he was overjoyed, and quickly said "yes" before running towards John.
"Director Chris Deng! Cross looked proud, he felt that John was dead, and his boss made a move, which was not something that John, the director, could compete with.
"It just so happens that I want to talk to your boss too. John smiled and walked to the bar to pick up the phone.
"Hey, it's me. ”
Charles heard a voice coming from the microphone and said coldly. "JK! You know that this restaurant is mine, and you still want to cut your tongue and burn the restaurant, you should give me an explanation now. ”
"Hmph......" John sneered, his tone sharpened. "If you want to explain the law, I'll ask you first, my warehouse in Savannah caught fire, and the police determined that it was arson, so if you don't give me an explanation today, I will burn down your restaurant. ”
Charles was blindsided, he was originally looking for trouble with John, but he didn't expect it to be John asking him for trouble now.
"I'll give you an explanation of this. Charles hung up the phone with a frown, and now he finally understood why John had gone to his restaurant to make trouble.
As for whether the warehouse fire was true or not, he didn't need to verify it, and at the level of him and John, there was no need to lie about this kind of thing.
