Chapter 5 - Hotel Management Panics as Security Fails to Intervene
The general manager of the luxury hotel sprinted out from the executive elevators, pale and sweating profusely.
He took in the sight of the shattered revolving doors, the wrecked SUV, and the police locking down the lobby.
“Mr. Chad! Oh, thank goodness you're safe... what on earth is happening here?” the manager cried out in panic.
“Get these cops to arrest this lunatic and his daughter immediately! They've ruined my entire morning!” Chad barked.
The general manager turned toward Marcus and Emily, his expression shifting from anxiety to corporate subservience.
“Ma'am, I am so sorry for this disturbance, but we may need to review your employment status given the disruption,” the manager said.
Marcus stepped forward, his eyes narrowing into cold daggers as he stared down the cowardly hotel executive.
“You touch my daughter's employment status, and you won't just need a new revolving door—you'll need a new career,” Marcus warned.
The general manager swallowed hard, shrinking back under the overwhelming intensity of Marcus's gaze.
“Officer, my daughter has worked two jobs here while putting herself through law school, and this man kicked her,” Marcus stated.
“We have security footage covering every inch of this lobby, and it's all backed up to cloud servers,” a witness added.
The police officer checked the live security feed on a monitor near the concierge desk, watching the brutal kick unfold.
The officer's expression hardened instantly as he looked back at Chad with undisguised disgust.
“Assault in the third degree, reckless endangerment, and workplace harassment. You're going downtown in cuffs, pal,” the officer said.
Chad’s jaw dropped in absolute disbelief as two officers stepped forward and slapped steel handcuffs onto his wrists.
“You can't do this to me! Do you know who my father is? Do you know who my board members are?!” Chad screamed.
“Yeah, and I'm sure they'll love seeing your mugshot splashed across the evening news,” the officer replied dryly.
The flashbulbs of smartphones flickered continuously as bystanders recorded every humiliating second of his arrest.
The luxury hotel's reputation was burning down faster than the shattered glass could be swept from the floor.
