Chapter 115 Angry Marlowe is Quite Adorable
The bar was still packed in the early hours.
The vibe was so eerie it made people zone out. The air reeked of smoke and booze, and the music was blaring. Energetic and attractive folks were still tearing up the dance floor like they never got tired.
Maybe this was their way to blow off steam.
The bar always had its share of drunks.
Victoria and Marlowe were helping a wasted Lila through the first-floor lobby.
They'd barely taken a few steps when someone blocked their way. "Leaving already, miss?"
Anthony Barnes, decked out in designer clothes, smirked at them, and someone behind him whistled.
Marlowe, who had sobered up a bit and was older than Victoria and Lila, stepped up. "Sir, could you move? Our friend’s drunk, and we need to get her home."
They didn't know these guys. It was clear they were being blocked on purpose. With Lila drunk, they were no match for these men, so Marlowe kept it polite.
Anthony and his crew had noticed them while Marlowe was dancing. The three of them were the hottest women there, and Anthony had been waiting for this.
Anthony laughed. "Move? How about I tag along? I promise you'll have a good time."
His buddies laughed along.
Marlowe got the hint.
Victoria's eyes narrowed, a cold light in them, and she pulled Marlowe back.
Seeing Victoria's icy look, Anthony teased, "I like cold women. Come to me, and I'll show you a good time."
He ogled Victoria. "Why act aloof when you're already here?"
Anthony's blatant teasing made Marlowe furious. "Are you nuts? If you want a hooker, go to a nightclub. Didn't your parents teach you any manners? Show some respect!"
One of Anthony's guys pointed at Marlowe. "Do you know who you're talking to? He's from the Barnes family of Jakarda City. How dare you insult him?"
They thought mentioning the Barnes family would scare them, but Victoria and the others had no clue who they were.
"So what? Just because he's from the Barnes family, he can act like a jerk? Even the President respects people. If I were from the Barnes family, I'd kick you out! Now, move."
Victoria was surprised to see Marlowe so sharp-tongued. She found it quite endearing.
Anthony was livid. "You’re asking for it. Let's see if you dare talk like that in a minute!"
He stepped towards Marlowe, ready to grab her, but before he could, he was kicked away, followed by a scream and a thud.
Seeing Anthony fall, his crew rushed to him. "Anthony, you okay?"
One of them pointed at Victoria. "You crazy? How dare you kick Anthony? You must have a death wish!"
Marlowe's eyes widened as she saw Anthony get kicked away. She looked at Victoria, surprised and delighted. "Victoria, you can fight?"
Victoria nodded modestly. "A little."
A little?
One kick sent Anthony flying several feet?
