Chapter 12 My Idol
- I wanted to leave, but the crowd surrounded me. They were enraged, and they called me all kinds of names; some even threatened to strip me bare to see how sl*tty I really was. I looked around and realized the one riling them up was Ronald. So they planned this all along!
- I thought Ben was already low enough, but this was a new low even for him. Then, I felt someone holding my leg, and I realized it was Ben. “Please don’t go, honey. I love you, I really do. Honey…”
- Now, I was truly panicking. I had no idea what I should do. On one hand, I was surrounded by an angry mob; on the other, I was being held down by this b*stard. I thought I was only helpless back in Ben’s house, but I never thought I’d be pinned down even when I was out in public.
- It was at that moment that someone pulled me into his embrace, much to my shock. I looked up to see who it was, and lo and behold, it was Roy. He’s protecting me!
- Roy shot the mob a sharp glare, and his intimidating aura silenced them at once. Everyone kept quiet, and Ben was a lot less daring too. Then, Roy stomped his foot on Ben’s hand, making Ben howl, “Let me go, you f*cker! You’re breaking my hand!”
- A chill ran down my spine when Ben screamed, but I felt like clapping. I didn’t condone violence, but boy was Roy looking awesome when he stomped Ben’s hand.
- “Honestly, I’ve never seen someone as scummy as you are.” He crushed Ben’s hand underfoot. “You have erectile dysfunction; you lied to her, and now you claim you love her? If you really love her, you wouldn’t have humiliated her in public.”
- Ben was in too much pain to speak, then someone spoke up. “Why are you defending her? Are you her lover?”
- Even though the person who spoke up hid himself among the crowd right away, Steven managed to find out who it was, and he grabbed Ronald and gave him one tight slap. Ronald screeched in pain as he fell back down and spat his tooth out.
- “I’m not wasting my time here. Let’s go.” Roy turned around with me in his embrace, and the crowd parted for us. They were staring at us with looks of fear and reverence, while I became the center of everyone’s attention, but this time in a good way; it was all thanks to Roy.
- I was helpless back there, but Roy settled it in a matter of moments. He was a brutal man, but it worked wonders. Indeed, he was a scumbag, but he was my hero for now. Then, we got into his car, and he sat beside me. “This is the third time.”
- I nodded dumbly, and I started crying. No matter what I did, the tears wouldn’t stop flowing. Being surrounded by an angry mob was a terrifying experience, not to mention they almost stripped me bare.
- Roy looked away in disgust. “You look disgusting, you know.”
- “Then don’t look at me!” I wasn’t someone who’d cry easily, but this time, I couldn’t hold myself back anymore. That was too horrifying to bear.
- “Hey, you’re the only person around. Who else am I supposed to look at if not you?”
- “T-That’s just unreasonable!” I kept crying.
- “You dumb*ss.”
- “Hey, cut me some slack. I just got out of a crisis.”
- “What’s with that attitude? You didn’t snap at me when I saved you, and you didn’t tell me to stop when you were shaking your hips on my d*ck!”
- I turned to him, looking shocked. “Y-You pervert!”
