Only one person reacted.
Craig Holloway.
He placed his champagne glass down and walked toward Benjamin.
"What are you doing here?"
Benjamin stopped immediately.
"The catering team requested waste pickup, sir. I’ll be finished quickly."
Craig looked around the room.
He wanted everyone to watch.
"Staff does not walk through this area during an event."
"I apologize. I’ll leave right away."
But Craig was not interested in an apology.
He wanted control.
He grabbed a half-finished plate from a nearby table and threw it onto Benjamin’s cart.
The plate broke.
Food spilled across Benjamin’s uniform.
