At that moment the room was silent, save for the soft rustle of paper as the manager scanned the documents. Finally, he closed the file and looked up at Ethan, then at the York family. "We've checked our database thoroughly," he said, his tone sharp and precise. "And Mr. Brown's name never came up as having reserved or dined in any of the heavenly boxes or Even our VIP room. Not once."
Immediately Gasps filled the air, and Serenity's uncle turned sharply to Mr. Brown.
"What's the meaning of this?" he demanded, his voice teetering between anger and disbelief.
Immediately Mr. Brown's face turned crimson, sweat glistening on his forehead.
"wait," he stammered, raising his hands defensively.
"I... I was just about to pay now. That's why I offered to cover the cost earlier. It's all a misunderstanding."
At that moment The manager arched an eyebrow, his unimpressed expression unwavering.
"A misunderstanding, you say?"
