One of the chefs sighed. "Forget it. Li, go get the ladder from the back storeroom."
Gina Gable's eyes lit up, and she quickly thanked him.
The man frowned and waved a dismissive hand, saying nothing as he stared gloomily at the ruins of the cake on the floor.
Gina Gable glanced at the cake on the floor with a regretful expression, then turned her attention back to Scott Sterling, who was on top of the refrigerator.
The kitchen refrigerators were massive commercial units, almost twice the height of a person.
Right then, Scott Sterling was perched on top of the refrigerator, his tiny body striking a surprisingly majestic pose.
He looked down from on high at Gina Gable, who was so frantic she was on the verge of tears. He was baffled.
'We've only known each other for a few days. Why is she so upset that I'm in danger?'
'Besides...'
He peeked over the edge, glancing at the drop below.
'A fall from this height is nothing. It wouldn't kill me.'
