Her Story: Rise Of Tiffany

Chapter 414 Owen

was stunned. He watched in disbelief as a table of diners inished their meals at his restaurant, only for one young man in his twenties to suddenly collapse. The young man fell to the floor, convulsing, frothing at the mouth, and twitching uncontrollably. Nearby diners were startled, and several tables hurriedly settled their bills and left. Others, terrified, dropped their utensils and jumped up, shouting. "Is there something wrong with your food?" "Impossible!" Owen vehemently protested.

His restaurant, Maximus, prioritized health and cleanliness, followed closely by the taste of the dishes. The kitchen was fully transparent, and he even had the confidence to allow customers to visit at any time, demonstrating how much he valued the quality of his food.. He had done his best without regrets, yet people constantly stirred up trouble due to other grievances. This convulsing young man on the ground was likely making a scene to tarnish his restaurant's reputation. However, he could do nothing and had no choice but to accept the situation.

Owen felt utterly helpless and immediately instructed someone to call an ambulance. After the call was made, a sudden silence fell over the surrounding crowd.

Turning back, Owen saw the young man on the ground frothing at the mouth. As he continued to convulse, his eyes rolled back, and then he lay still, no longer moving.

Someone nearby exclaimed, "Is he... dead?" This statement sent shockwaves through the restaurant. Other diners were visibly shaken, with some even rushing to induce vomiting.

Regardless of the outcome, it was clear that Maximus Restaurant's reputation and business would be severely impacted moving forward. Owen found himself at a loss for words, unable to defend himself.

Just as he was about to crouch down to check the young man's breathing and pulse, the guy's companion grabbed his arm and spoke in a low voice, half-threatening, half-warning, "Mr. Hughes, I'll ask you one last time-are you not considering our generous offer?

"That sum is far greater than the dividends Charlie pays you. It would be a shame to pass up such a significant benefit. I can assure you

that if you agree to sell us ten percent of your shares, we will withdraw immediately. Otherwise, your restaurant may not be able to stay afloat."

After hearing such threats multiple times in a single day, Owen smiled thinly but didn't bother checking the man's vital signs. He stepped back and replied, "Do as you wish."

Owen scoffed, thinking. 'Do they believe I can be easily manipulated like a soft target just because I'm older?

Unlike other shareholders solely focused on profit, he wasn't interested in selling what he valued; even if someone offered him a mountain of gold, it wouldn't sway him.

"Mr. Hughes, since you're so stubborn, you can't blame us if things worsen. It is all on you After delivering that harsh warning, Owen remained unmoved.

One of the men immediately grabbed a chair and smashed it on the table, shouting. This place has killed someone! What kind of evil establishment is this? I'm going to sue you! I'll make sure you go bankrupt? The other men quickly joined in, ready to take action. a matter of moments, chaos erupted all around. Plates and bowls were shattered, shards scattering everywhere. Tables were overturned, and the food was strewn across the floor, creating a mess.

The waiter and the restaurant manager were left stunned by the scene. Meanwhile, Owen stood his ground, remaining

completely still.

If there was any expression on his face, it was neither sadness nor anger, just a sense of resignation and a sigh. Well, if it couldn't go on, then so be it. Some principles were worth keeping, and external things could be let go. After all, he blamed himself for getting involved with a group of thugs.

Owen shook his head and turned to the restaurant manager, saying, "Let the customers leave. There's no need to settle the bill; close the restaurant."

The manager was taken aback. "Close the restaurant? But..."

Owen waved his hand, not wanting to say more. "Just do as I say

The manager hesitated momentarily and was about to nod when a clear, ringing voice came from the restaurant's entrance. We've done nothing wrong, so how can we just close the restaurant?"

Owen was taken aback and quickly turned around, seeing Tiffany walk in with a cheerful smile. She was dressed casually today in a light-colored jacket paired with jeans, her figure looking-slender and graceful. Her high ponytail added a youthful and vibrant touch, exuding a playful and lively aura.

Seeing Tiffany approach, Owen looked pleasantly surprised. Tiffany, what brings you here? Don't you have class today?"

The men smashing things paused momentarily, but when they saw it was just a young girl, they sneered wholly and dismissively disregarded her presence. "Keep smashing!"

They became more aggressive, and as they continued their rampage, the flying debris even affected several innocent diners nearby.

Screams mingled with the sounds of destruction, creating utter chaos in the restaurant. If this continued, the situation would become even more dire.

Owen anxiously contemplated calling security to handle the situation when Tiffany snapped her fingers and lazily said. "Someone, tie them up for me!Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

When Tiffany finished speaking, over ten people entered the restaurant. They wore identical black suits, their strong imposing physiques radiating energy. Judging by their demeanor and stature, they were skilled fighters.

The sudden appearance of this group lined up in formation created overwhelming pressure. Under such intimidating circumstances, the men who had been vandalizing the place panicked and instinctively stepped back, shouting, "What do

you want? I warn you not round"

Tiffany commanded, "Bind them!"

Within two minutes, Tiffany's ten subordinates swiftly complied binding the five troublemakers tightly with ropes.

inside. Following Tiffany's signal, the restaurant's entrance was locked, trapping everyone

The troublemaker attempted to incite the other diners, declaring. This is a shady restaurant! You've all seen it for yourselves -their food has killed someone, and now they're trying to cover it up by silencing us!" With the doors of Maximus Restaurant firmly shut, everyone realized that escape was no longer an option.

However, they weren't overly frighten

as most people recognized Tiffany's prominent reputation in Lovell City.

Instead, their curiosity grew about how the notorious Tiffany planned to handle the situation, whether she would resort to intimidation or bribery, and if she would settle things quietly with money or silence everyone altogether.

In the end, it was neither. Tiffany turned to everyone with a bright smile and cheerfully announced, "Don't be afraid. The reason for closing the doors is to invite you all to stay and watch show unfold!"

Samenne asked, "What kind of show?

"That's a great question: Tiffany replied smoothly. "I want everyone to be witnesses to demonstrate that Owen's restaurant has no issues with its food whatsoever."

"How will you prove that?" someone couldn't help but ask..

"Yeah, how will you prove it?" more people began to inquire.

Tiffany's words piqued everyone's curiosity. No one had any idea what she was planning.
