Hazel Crowe frowned because of the deafening music in the surroundings.
She passed through the crowd under the dim light and glanced around at the faces of the men and women who were indulging themselves on the dance floor, and quickly looked away.
"Hi cutie, come to have a drink. It's on me." A drunken man said as he got in Hazel’s way.
"Get away!" Hazel said coldly, her voice full of impatience.
The drunken man was very disgruntled. He reached out one of his arms to stop her.
Seeing his arm in front of her, Hazel suddenly grabbed his wrist and strongly twisted it.
"Ouch!" The man yelled, but his voice quickly disappeared in the loud music.
Hazel grunted and let go of his wrist. The man looked at her with fear in his eyes and dared not go toward her again.
After solving that situation, Hazel continued to squeeze into the crowd. She came here looking for someone.
Her dorm roommate was drunk and called Hazel to pick her up, but Hazel looked around in the bar and did not find her.
"Hazel!" A familiar voice called.
Hazel turned back and found Ariel Ross was calling to her.
"Have you found Summer?" Hazel asked.
Ariel said in a panic, "I heard that someone saw Summer being taken to the men's room by a few
guys..."
"Show me the way!" Hazel said in a hurry.
The two of them rushed towards the men's room. Ariel was still worried, "I heard that there are four or five guys. Should we call the police?"
"It will be too late by the time the police arrive!" Hazel thought for a while and said, "I’ll go in first. You wait for my signal and then take Summer!"
"What about you? No, it's too dangerous!" Ariel quickly shook her head.
"Relax, I know I can't beat all of them, I should be fine escaping from them, though," Hazel said slowly.
The two arrived at the door of the men's room. Ariel had no choice but to agree with what Hazel proposed even though she had a bad feeling.
Hazel looked into the men's room and saw a man with his back to her, starting to take off his suit. In front of him was her drunk roommate, Summer Lynch!
Hazel's expression turned angry as she rushed in!
"Stop!" She yelled as she punched the man's back.
Joshua Denmark heard the movement behind him. He leaned sideways and dodged Hazel’s fist, and then grabbed her wrist!
"What are you doing?!" Joshua said. There was a hint of anger in his calm eyes.
Hazel tried to pull her fist back, but it was being held tight by the man's hand. She could not move her hand, so Hazel violently pushed Joshua back against the wall and immediately shouted, "Ariel!"
Ariel rushed in, grabbed Summer, and dragged her towards the door of the men's room. "Go!" Seeing them leave, Hazel let out a deep breath. Hazel was still trying to pull her hand back, but Joshua still had a tight grip.
"Let go!" Hazel said with a little panic and anger in her voice.
Hazel knew some self-defense techniques, which were only useful on one or two normal guys, but the man standing in front of her this time was by no means normal.
She had to find a way to escape. She came here to rescue someone, not to sacrifice herself.
"Hey lady, don't you think you owe me an explanation?" Joshua questioned coldly.
A while ago, Joshua came to the men's room and saw a few guys getting ready to bully a drunk girl. He threatened them, and they left, but the girl had puked all over his suit.
