Alle Kapitel von Bullied in a High-End Bar? I Went Full Savage: Kapitel 1 – Kapitel 10

Comments flew across the screen so fast that they blurred."Holy! Noelle, your head's bleeding! Who did that to you?""Jerome's other home? What do you mean? I just came from his finance livestream. He literally said he was heading home to have dinner with you tonight!""Who's that woman? She's acting like she owns the place! I know this bar. It's new. I heard that Jerome's the owner.""Wait. That woman said her husband is the owner of that bar. So… is she Mrs. Callen?"Across from me, the woman lit a cigarette with a sharp snap of her lighter.She scoffed, saying, "Your husband? Please. Jerome wouldn't look twice at a pauper like you. Quit pretending here. Take that old hag and leave before I call security!"I was about to argue back when I noticed the watch on her wrist—"Time's Prelude".That was my watch.Just yesterday, Jerome held my hand with a look full of sympathy."Noelle, the strap's a little loose. I'll have it adjusted for you and give it a tune-up, so you'll have

My words clearly hit a nerve. The security guards exchanged looks and suddenly stopped in their tracks.Cassidy screamed in frustration, "What are you afraid of? It's just some stupid livestream! If anything happens, Jerome will take the blame! Get them!"But no one moved a muscle.Left with no choice, Cassidy called Jerome and put the call on speaker. The call was answered almost instantly."Cassie? What's wrong? Didn't I tell you to stop being so willful? I'm busy right now."She broke down, crying into the phone. "Jerome! Someone's causing trouble at your bar! They even hit me! You have to come now!"Jerome's tone shifted immediately. "What? Are you hurt? Don't be scared. I'm on my way! Wait for me!"With that, he hung up in a rush.I felt like I'd been dropped into an ice bath.Just minutes earlier, Kylie had told him that I'd been hit in the head with a wine bottle trying to protect her, and he had told us to go to the hospital ourselves.Cassidy ended the call and barke

It was Andrew Garrison. When he saw me struggling on the ground, his eyes darkened with anger.Jerome's gaze swept over the room and finally locked onto the shattered watch lying on the floor. His pupils shrank sharply."W-What the hell happened?" His voice trembled.Cassidy, spotting Jerome, clung to him like a drowning person to a lifeline.She instantly dropped the venomous act and put on a wounded expression. She stumbled into his arms and pointed at me like I was the villain."Jerome, you're finally here! This woman has lost her mind! She not only hit me but smashed the watch herself! She's just trying to scam you for money!"Jerome instinctively pulled the trembling Cassidy close, but his eyes stayed fixed on the broken watch pieces on the floor.His face twisted with pain and anger as he yelled at me, "Noelle Linton, are you out of your mind? Do you have any idea how much money I spent on that watch?"I felt like my heart was being crushed by an invisible hand. Pain didn

Jerome suddenly stepped in front of me and dropped to his knees with a heavy thud. Clutching the hem of my dress, he cried uncontrollably. "Noelle! I'm sorry! I really messed up! Please forgive me. We've been together for ten years! Please give me one more chance!"He wept like a child, desperately trying to tug at my heart with memories of our past, but all I felt was bitter irony.At that moment, a sharp pain stabbed my lower abdomen. I let out a low groan, and my face grew paler.Andrew immediately steadied me and asked with concern, "What's wrong? Are you okay?"I pressed my hand against my stomach. Suddenly, a thought struck me. It was no wonder I had been so exhausted lately.I looked at Jerome, who was still begging on his knees, and suddenly smiled. "Andrew, help me draft a divorce agreement."Jerome jerked his head up at my words. His eyes were full of confusion and helplessness. "D-Divorce? No! Noelle! We can't get a divorce! We—""We what?" I stared at his regret-fill

Jerome's company, crushed by the combined forces of the Garrison and the Linton families, declared bankruptcy within just three days. He was about to face his final verdict on multiple economic crimes and for inciting assault.The day before the verdict, I received an unexpected call from Kylie.Her voice was heavy with exhaustion and pleading. "Noelle, I'm asking you for one last favor. Jerome wants to see you one more time before he goes in. Just once, please."I was silent for a long time, but eventually, I agreed.Not for anything else, but to close the chaotic chapter of our ten years with a proper ending.The meeting place was the visitation room at the detention center.Through the thick glass, I saw Jerome.In just half a month, he looked 20 years older. His hair was streaked with gray, and his eyes were hollow. He was stripped entirely of his former vigor.When he saw me, a sudden spark lit up his cloudy eyes. He grabbed the phone and pleaded hoarsely, "Noelle, I'm sor
