Adorable Kids Asking for Bear Hug novel Chapter 18

Thea had tears rolling down her face as she drank her sorrows at a bar later that night.

I've known Kenneth for five long years, and I gave my all in order to make myself useful to him. I thought I had become irreplaceable to him, but his words today have proved me wrong. He used to let me do as I please without a single complaint, so why has he changed all of a sudden? Does he not know how I feel about him? Have I not made myself clear enough? Why does he always ignore my feelings?

Thea had never felt so upset throughout her entire life. Unbeknownst to her, a few men sitting in a corner had set their sights on her while she continued downing drinks at the bar.

Eventually, one of the guys approached her with his drink in hand.

“Hey there, beautiful. Are you by yourself?”

Thea shot him a glance and carried on drinking as if he wasn't there.

“What's the matter? You feeling upset? How about I have a drink with you?” the man pressed on.

“Get lost!” Thea snapped at him impatiently as she found such men to be extremely disgusting.

Not wanting to give up just yet, the man boldly wrapped an arm around her as he continued, “Wow, you sure are a feisty one! Come on, tell me about your problems! I might be able to help you out of it!”

“Get your filthy hands off me!” Thea stood up from her chair in an attempt to break free, but could barely maintain her balance after all that drinking.

The man quickly reached out to catch her when she stumbled forward. “Whoa! Be careful there, lady! You could fall down and hurt yourself!”

“F*ck off!” Thea shoved him off and glared fiercely at him.

“Aww, don't be mad! Getting mad will only make me like you even more!” the man said with a shameless grin.

Realizing that he was just a troublemaker, Thea didn't want to waste her time talking to him. Right as she turned around and prepared to leave, the other guys in the corner came over and blocked her path.

“Why the angry face? We're just having a few drinks with you!”

Thea realized she was in danger when she saw those men surrounding her. “Stay away from me!”

“Don't be afraid, miss! We just want to get to know you better over a few drinks!”

Left with no other options, Thea pulled out her phone and gave Kenneth a call on the spot.

“Come save me, Kenneth! I'm at Golden Street Bar!” she shouted anxiously when the call got through after a few rings.

“What's going on, Thea?”

“Who do you think you're calling, huh? We just want to have a drink with you! There's no need for you to be calling anyone!” said one of the men as he snatched her phone over and ended the call.

“D-Don't come closer!” she stammered while backing away.

Hearing her words only prompted those men to close in on her even more. “Geez, all we want is to have a few drinks with you! Why are you overreacting like this?”

“I know, right?”

“F*ck off! Get away from me!” Thea shouted. One of the men added something into his drink as he said, “All right. Just drink this and we'll be on our way!”

Thea knew they were up to no good, so she snatched the glass from his hand and smashed it on the floor.

“You insolent b*tch!” the man yelled while raising his hand.

He was about to bring it down on her face when someone shouted from behind, “Freeze!” The men turned around in response, only to see a few police officers rushing toward them.

They immediately tried to make a run for it, but the police officers were faster and easily had them surrounded.
