It was late, but the pub was still crowded with people. Diana and Antonette looked gorgeous and were attracting a lot of attention. As soon as they entered, a man sitting by the bar started looking at them in an intimidating fashion.
Kyle was walking them over to a free table when suddenly, the man at the bar stood up and slapped Antonette in the face, “Bitch!”
Antonette fell to the floor. Diana was dumbstruck. There was a drunk man in front of Antonette, shouting at her.
“What are you doing?!” Kyle shouted at the strange man before picking Antonette up and guarding her behind him.
“Bitch! No wonder you broke up with me for no reason! You got some new suckers! Does he satisfy you? Is he richer than me?” The man grabbed Kyle’s collar and his face reddened with anger.
Kyle pushed him away, angrily and stared furiously at the man.
“Do you know this bitch? I’m warning you, don’t be fooled by her! Although she looks delicate and charming, she will sleep with anyone for money! She is damaged goods!”
“Watch your mouth!” Kyle said with indignation.
Antonette hid behind Kyle with fear and said in a low voice, “I don’t know him. Kyle, don’t listen to his nonsense.”
“Damn it! Say that again! Antonette, don’t you know me?! So how do I know how many miles are on your body! Do you want me to tell everyone the number?”
Antonette interrupted him, hastily, “Don’t talk nonsense!”
She explained anxiously to Kyle, “I don’t know who he is. Don’t believe him!”
The man laughed grimly, “Ha! You must be dreaming! You have cheated me out of so much money, and you dare to show up here! I should have known what kind of person you are! How could I end up in your trap! Don’t give me that pitiful expression. I finally caught you! Wait and see how I’ll punish you tonight!”
After finishing his rant, the man pulled Antonette aggressively out from behind Kyle’s back. As he did so, Antonette’s skirt flipped up, and her underwear was exposed. The men around looked at Antonette lustfully. Some bystanders even applauded, “Carl, do her now!”
“Kyle! Help me! I beg you! Help me! I don’t know what they are talking about! Please believe me!” Antonette was screaming. Her back had hit the ground as the man dragged her, and it was rather painful. The guys all around looked like bad people. Antonette knew the only person that could help her was Kyle.
“I will only say it once. Let her go!” Kyle grabbed Carl’s arms to prevent him from dragging Antonette any further.
“Fuck you! This is none of your business!” Carl shouted menacingly at Kyle.
He released Antonette, then swiftly pulled out a knife and made a thrust towards Kyle.
Luckily, Kyle was ready for it and avoided the sharp knife with ease. Then he smacked Carl hard in the face with his well-practiced fists.
Carl hadn’t expected Kyle would be so strong; he didn’t look the fighting type. Kyle’s punch sent him flying into the crowd of onlookers.
Carl had taken a massive hit. He couldn’t get up from the floor, and his face was covered in blood.
“What are you doing?!” The pub’s bouncer suddenly noticed the situation and walked threateningly towards them, electric taser in hand.
Diana finally came to her senses. She realized they would have to calm the bouncer down fast, or they would all be in trouble. So she stood up and said calmly, “We didn’t do anything wrong. It is the man lying on the ground that started the fight. We are good people. I suggest you take this man outside now!”
The bouncer hit the bar angrily with his fists.
“I don’t care what you are doing here, but don’t make trouble in this pub. If you create a disturbance, I’ll have to call the police.”
The bouncer signaled it was time for them to go, so Antonette pulled Kyle’s hand and tried to drag him away whilst Carl was unable to catch them.
Kyle took hold of Diana’s hand as well so as not to leave her behind.
However, Carl was back on his feet, and he and his friends quickly caught up with them as they tried to make their exit.
“Antonette White, you think you can leave me just because you found a rich man?”
The men, together with Carl, also cursed to them, “Bitch, how dare you cheat on our elder brother. You wanna die?!”
“The girl beside her is pretty too. We can deal with her together with this bitch.”
Diana was getting fed up at listening to all the indecent insults.
“Shut up!” She pointed at the bullies and shouted at them, “Who do you think you are? You think you can behave like this?”
She pretended to be courageous, “Get out of the way! I have called the police.”
But it was no use to threaten the bullies. They didn’t move an inch.
“Haha, you’ve called the police? Well, they’re not here yet, are they? We’re not afraid of you! Do you think you will all be fine after calling the police? No, you will never be safe whilst I am in this city.”
Carl’s friends backed him up, “Everyone knows that this territory belongs to our brother. Calling the police doesn’t work here. You’d better behave.”
Their arrogance made Diana angry. But Antonette held Diana’s hand and quietly begged her not to call the police.
Diana had no choice but to agree, as Antonette trembled with fear.
The guys didn’t wait around any longer and began taking turns attacking Kyle with kicks and punches, as he guarded the two girls behind him.
Seeing Kyle being attacked, Diana didn’t hide behind him anymore. She threw her bag at one of the guys.
“Fuck! Bitch!” The man touched his head and looked fiercely at Diana. Diana stared back. The man had a fierce, malicious look, and the stick in his hand was ready to be used. Diana instinctively put her hands to her head in self-defense and waited for the impact. Suddenly, there was a loud, smashing sound. Diana opened her eyes and saw Kyle with a broken glass bottle in his hand, with the man bleeding beside him on the floor.
Antonette tried to slip away after seeing the fight unfold. But she only got as far as the alley behind them when one of the bullies noticed her trying to get away.
“The bitch is trying to run!”
When she saw them beginning to chase after her, Antonette ran.
She was petrified; she knew these were not normal guys. She had been Carl’s girlfriend. He used to cheat on her and wanted her to take drugs, so she ran away. She was with him for his money from the beginning, and when she left, she made sure to take as much of it with her as possible. Antonette couldn’t believe they’d found her there by chance.
