"Son of a bitch, how dare you hit my Elly!"
She grabbed a chair nearby and smashed it on the heads of those men, creating chaos in the bar as the scene spiraled out of control.
The bar manager arrived with the security guards, but no one dared to step forward to intervene.
Helen Melendy swung the chair, cursing all the while, until she and Elly Campbell both ended up collapsed in a corner by the wall.
The men who had been harassing them were shocked, and it took them a while to recover before they grabbed Helen and Elly, ready to slap their faces.
But just then, someone delivered a fierce kick to their shoulders and sent them flying without warning.
Looking up, they saw a tall man exuding an aura of sternness standing before them. Without making a move, just sweeping a gaze over them, he frightened them into silence.
Turning his head, he saw Helen and Elly hugging each other, still swearing.
He slightly frowned and stepped forward to help Helen up, but she was holding onto Elly so tightly that she refused to let go.
As if the brawl hadn’t happened, they sat huddled on the ground, embracing each other.
"Elly, men are no good, heartless and ruthless, they start things and then abandon..."
He was caught off guard and panicked when Helen called him at home, worried she would hang up, so he hurriedly answered the call—only to be called "Dylan" by her drunken voice.
Upon hearing she was being harassed at the bar, he did not bother correcting her peculiar nickname, hung up and dashed through countless red lights to get there, only to step into the scene before him.
Feeling a mix of anger and helplessness, he crouched down to try and pick her up, but she pushed him away, "Get away from me!"
She clung to Elly and wouldn’t let go, with Elly holding her just as tightly, leaving Harry no way to separate them or get a grip.
Helpless, he stood up and made a call to Adam Jones.
Upon answering, he said bluntly, "Come to Starry Night Bar, take your wife home."
After Harry finished speaking, the person on the other end simply hung up the phone.
In less than ten minutes, Adam Jones appeared in the bar and saw Harry standing a short distance away, pinching the bridge of his nose in defeat.
Seeing Adam rushing over, Harry spread his hands helplessly.
"We’ll take one each, and we’ll talk about it when we get them home."
Adam looked down at Elly, sitting in a corner hugging Helen, and frowned deeply, he gravely acknowledged, "Hmm."
He bent down, smelled the strong scent of alcohol on Elly, and listened to her murmuring with Helen. When they were forcibly separated, they became unhappy and started to struggle angrily.
Helen, who was being carried by Harry, suddenly yelled out, as if sensing something, the previously quiet Elly in Adam’s arms abruptly opened her eyes, turned her head, and reached out her hand towards Helen, "Helen!"
"Elly, men are no good. They are the cruelest, most heartless creatures in the world, remember that?"
"Yeah, I remember, I remember..."
