The manager, who was usually so proud, was now scared out of his wits. The security guards, though they didn't know who Kris Cooper was, also knew they had hit someone they shouldn't have. Who wouldn't want to keep their job? Immediately, they busily gathered around, one by one, grovelling and apologizing to Kris Cooper.
"Mr. Cooper, we're sorry!"
"We're sorry!"
...
In a swift turn of events, Vera Wave let out a sigh of relief. She turned her gaze towards Kris Cooper, examining him to make sure he wasn't hurt, then finally relaxed.
"Kris, shall we let this go?!"
Kris Cooper nodded. The security guards were just doing their job, and he wasn't angry about that. What upset him was that one of the guards had almost hurt Vera.
"You!" He raised his hand and pointed at the guard who had shoved Vera. "Apologize to her!"
