A thunderous noise echoed in Mind's mind, freezing her entire body for a moment.
Warm, red blood dripped onto her face.
Blood...
"Jack!" Victoria's eyes turned red instantly, her voice trembling.
The man emitted a muffled groan due to intense pain. A strong smell of blood surged in his throat, and his breathing was intermittent. Despite this, he reassured her, "Don't be afraid, I'm fine."
Victoria's eyes were sore, how could he be fine?
The ground was covered with shattered chandeliers, as well as bright red blood, all flowing from his body.
"Brother!"
Carl's pupils suddenly contracted, and he ran over in a panic. While supporting Jack, he shivered as he fumbled with his phone to call an ambulance.
Victoria rose from the man's protective embrace, witnessing the blurry bloodstains on his back caused by the fallen giant chandelier. The exploding shards had cut into his skin, some embedded in his flesh, causing blood to flow profusely.
And his head...
The back of his head was also hit, and his black hair was soaked with fresh red blood. He looked like he had just been pulled out of a pool of blood, and the air was filled with a strong and pungent smell of blood.
Victoria's hands trembled uncontrollably as he held Jack's arm, her voice trembling, "The ambulance will be here soon!"
His injuries looked terrifying, and she dared not move him recklessly, fearing it might worsen his condition.
The incident was very loud, and the restaurant manager and staff immediately rushed over.
Seeing the injured person in the lobby, the restaurant manager instantly turned pale.
Jack Moore?!
It was over.
This was bad. If someone of Jack's stature got seriously injured in their restaurant, it would be hard to escape blame even if they closed down.
The restaurant manager's hands and feet turned cold, and he rashly ran over, trembling as he took out his phone, almost crying, "Miss Montgomery, Mr. Carter, I'll arrange a vehicle to take Mr. Moore to the hospital right away!"
Seeing the restaurant manager approaching, Carl immediately suppressed his rage and spoke in a cold voice, "Lock down all information. Nothing can be leaked!"
His brother's injury would have a significant impact on the Moore family, the Moore Group, and external rumors.
The incident needed to be contained, and no information could be disclosed.
The restaurant manager was completely confused. After hearing Carl's words, he immediately nodded and did so.
Florian and Ivar, who were in the private room, heard the commotion and came out.
Seeing that the injured person was Jack, Florian panicked and hurriedly ran over, "Victoria, Mr. Moore, what's going on? Victoria, are you injured too?"
Victoria shook her head, her eyes not leaving Jack for a moment, and she said briefly, "Grandpa Wright, I'll take him to the hospital first."
"Okay, good, go!" Florian did not understand why Victoria and Jack were so close, but now was not the time to ask."
The siren of an ambulance came from outside.
Carl finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Victoria looked at the restaurant manager and said in an unprecedentedly cold tone, "Please check the surveillance footage in the lobby, as well as the surveillance footage in the corridor on the second floor and outside the restroom."
The restaurant manager nodded repeatedly. Even if Ms. Montgomery didn't say anything, they would check the surveillance footage to find out what happened.
Finally, she got into the ambulance and immediately drove to the hospital.
