The manager wasn't aware of who Jonas was, but looking at his expensive outfit, he could guess that Jonas was from a rich background. The manager was terrified of Jonas. He glanced at his regular customers and understood that he needed to handle the matter with care. He should make sure not to offend anyone.

Emily darted towards Jonas and held him. He was too drunk and swaying aimlessly. It was hard to imagine that he was the one who reacted quickly in the fight just now.

"Jonas, you are drunk," Emily groaned and held him firmly but she couldn't control him.

Jonas didn't answer but continued to glare at the manager. He felt better after venting his anger but was annoyed the moment everyone stopped him. He wanted to beat the man until he felt better.

A chill ran through the manager's spine when he looked at Jonas's bloodshot eyes. He was afraid that Jonas would hit him as well. He swallowed loudly and stepped back.

Everyone had seen Jonas beat the man but he was too drunk to explain why he had assaulted him. Emily apologized, but no one realized that she was the one who started the fight.

"I apologize on behalf of my friend's behavior. He is drunk. We will pay for the drinks,"

Emily said apologetically. She tried taking the wallet from Jonas's pocket but he slapped her hand away.

"Jonas give your wallet to me. We need to pay."

Jonas shoved his hand inside his coat, pulled out a black leather wallet, and gave it to Emily.

Her heart sank when she opened the wallet and saw the picture of Melinda and Jonas. They were holding each other, smiling happily.

Emily resisted the urge to rip the photo apart. The manager heaved a sigh of relief when Emily said she was paying the bill. He immediately went to the counter and asked them to prepare the bill for Jonas, adding the man's bill to his account.

Emily skimmed through the contents of the wallet and found that Jonas didn't have enough cash. She thought for a while and pulled the black card out. The manager's respect for Emily and Jonas grew multifold when he saw the card. Only a few big shots in A City possessed the card.

"Can you lend me a hand to take him to the car?" Emily said breathlessly as she tried balancing Jonas's weight. Although Jonas looked thin, Emily couldn't sustain his weight.

The manager took one of Jonas's arms and positioned it around his shoulder as he held his waist firmly and ushered him out of the bar. The farce had ended and people in the bar continued their games.

A gust of cold wind swept across them as they walked out of the bar. The cold breeze soothed Jonas's parched skin.

With the manager's help, Emily somehow managed to hoist Jonas inside the car. Beads of sweat formed on Emily's forehead. She leaned against the door and took a deep breath.

"Miss, if there is nothing else, I'll go back and continue with my work."

The manager blew out a loud breath and wiped the sweat off his forehead.
