The Replacement He Never Wanted

Chapter 547 Send the Person to the Johnston Residence

She knew it was Johnston Residence, but what exactly was going on? The path leading there was smooth and safe. It wasn't a dangerous neighborhood, so why was everyone acting so scared? "Sir, just tell me directly." Seeing Addison's confusion, the manager took a deep breath and said, "Miss, someone as powerful as the Johnstons is beyond what our restaurant can handle." Addison raised an eyebrow. She didn't quite understand his reasoning. "Why is it a problem? Just take the person back. You don't need to do anything else. "Your restaurant is only responsible for delivering the person. "And the Johnstons aren't unreasonable. There's no need to be so afraid." The manager kept his head down and remained silent.Addison glanced at him, feeling even more confused. Was the Johnstons really that powerful in Halton? Or was its reputation so terrible that no one dared to be involved? Otherwise, why was everyone in the restaurant so terrified? But she had been in Halton for a long time and had never heard anything bad about the Johnstons. Nor had she ever heard of them mistreating others. She asked, "Sir, can you explain more clearly? "You're being too vague. I honestly don't get what you're trying to say. "If it's about money, I can give you as much as you need." Addison gestured with her hand, indicating an amount. The manager's eyes widened in shock. For a moment, he hesitated. It wasn't that he was easily swayed, but the sum was simply too tempting. He couldn't turn it down."Well ... It's not like we can't send the person home." The manager sighed. Addison wasn't surprised by his reaction. She gave a slight nod. "Then go ahead and take care of him. "But make sure to be careful." The manager nodded quickly. "Don't worry, I'll be extra careful." With that much money at stake, he had no choice but to be careful! Careful ... careful ... He repeated the word in his mind, and then it hit him. If they were taking this person to Johnston Residence, didn't that mean the drunk person was from the Johnstons? Lance's face was the kind you wouldn't forget after seeing it once. He had been featured in numerous TV interviews, and for a while, his looks made him a trending topic online. Residents of Halton who frequently watched television easily recognized him. Because of this, the manager instantly remembered the face of the drunk man. After hearing Addison's words, an absurd idea suddenly formed in his mind.The person currently sitting in the restaurant ... Isn't he the son of the Johnstons, the CEO of Johnston Enterprise, Lance Johnston? This ... this ... With a stiff motion, he turned his head and glanced at the man who had been quietly staying in the corner. That man had been watching them the whole time, his gaze uneasy, as if he had been caught doing something he shouldn't. "What's the matter?" Looking in the same direction, Addison spotted the man as well. He wore the same outfit as the manager. She narrowed her eyes, studying him carefully until she finally recognized who he was. It was the same manager who had just collided with Lance. Worried that Lance might cause trouble in the restaurant, the manager secretly kept an eye on him while pretending to refill water nearby.
