Chapter 421 She Got Into A Trouble During Her Day Off
"Celine! Calm down!"
Rachel stopped her friend, who had drank lots of beer and now, visibly intoxicated, was angrily running
towards the table in the corner, holding a beer bottle in her hand.
"Rachel, I can't do that! I broke up with him just one month ago. One month! How could he hang out
with another woman in such a short time!" Breaking free from Rachel`s grip, Celine hurried forward,
looking furious and completely out of control.
It was just unfair. Why should she feel sad about their break-up, while Philip was flirting with that other
woman and visibly having a great time? No, she couldn't put up with all that.
Being worried about Celine and what she might do, Rachel followed her steadily like a shadow.
"Philip, tell me. Who is she?" Celine stood boldly in front of him, pointing with a finger at the woman
who was sitting right across Philip. Her competitor looked few years younger than Celine.
Caught by a surprise, as he didn't expect to see his ex lover here, Philip stammered,"Ce… Celine?
What are you doing here?"
"That`s not important now. I remembered that you told me you needed space and it`d be better if we
both take some time to calm down. It has been just one month since all that.... Who is this lady? Tell
me! Who is she? !"
Celine yelled in Philip`s face, with scary anger in her tone.
As he lowered his head, he sighed,"Celine, I'm sorry, dear. But when my family found out about your
situation, they all asked me to break up with you. I… I just… I'm really sorry! To tell you the truth, my
mom introduced her to me. So we met on a blind date. This is actually the second time we go out."
"Wait! What are you trying to say? The second time?! You already went out once?"
What Philip tried to explain, calmly and with compassion, was totally unacceptable to Celine. Grabbing
his collar angrily, she hissed like a snake,"We've been together for one year. Aren't the things going
well between us? Yes, I have a failed marriage behind my back. It was just because I met the wrong
guy. That couldn't be the reason to give up on what we have. You can't blame it all on me. Why couldn't
you just forgive me once and for all, so we can move on and be happy?"
Releasing himself from Celine's hands, Philip said,"Celine, calm down, please! I did like you. But what
my parents said made sense too. I really don't want to disobey them. And the worst is that even if I
ignore my parents' condition to leave you and in the end, decide to marry you against their will, you
won't have a happy life in our family, because they won't like you."
"Well, don't be so sure! How could we know if things would turn out bad, without giving it a try?"
Obsessed and desperate at the same time, Celine clung to Philip's hand again. The thought of letting
him go was cutting her like a knife. "After I marry you, I will live with you, not your parents. Your
parents! Your parents! .... All the time you talk and care only about them! Why couldn't you pay
attention to my feelings as well?! Am I not important at all?!"
Just as they were having this heated discussion, the other woman suddenly stood up and shouted at
Celine,"Excuse me, but I think you're a little selfish. Through all this time you kept asking Philip to think
about you. And you? Have you ever thought about him and his emotions? Do you ever think if he's
happy and satisfied? You were already married once. So if you at all learned your lesson well, one
would assume you'd be more careful about re-marrying. Now both Philip and his family, have their
understandable concerns about you, but you just keep pressing him to marry you. This is all you know
and care about. Don't you realize that what you are demanding is a vain wishful thinking?"
"Shut up!"
Celine screamed loudly. Pointing her fingers at the woman, she lost her temper,"Who the heck are
you? What gives you any right to judge me like that? You have no idea who I am, what I have been
through and how serious I am about this relationship. I've spent a lot of efforts to maintain our
connection. You can't even imagine how much I care about Philip. You know nothing!"
"So what? The truth is the two of you already broke up and you are never ever getting back together.
This dramatic 'show' you are making right now is completely irrational and just creates more trouble out
of nothing!"
The woman shouted back at Celine. She was anything else, but shy and non-confrontational.
"What are you talking about? Don't you ever dare to say that again!" The anger blurred Celine`s
rational mind and she had already lifted high in the air her hand in which she was holding the beer
bottle.
"Celine! For God's sake, please! Calm down!" Rachel grabbed Celine's hand and shook her head, as to
wake her up from the trans of her rage.
Seeing Rachel was here too, Philip lowered his head, embarrassed. "Sorry, Celine. I know I let you
down. It's all my fault and it is none of her business. Please, don't blame her. Celine, as this meeting
today is extremely unpleasant for everyone involved, how about we just settle things down here and
now and never see each other again?"
Going completely nuts by Philip's words, she let go of Rachel's hand and threw the bottle at the
woman!
"I can't believe you're defending her! You're defending her!"
BANG! The sound of the bottle hitting the woman`s head was painfully loud.
Immediately the glass broke into hundreds of little pieces!
The heavy, uneasy feeling of desperation and hopelessness hit Celine, as she realized that Philip had
never really defended her in front of his family. However, now he was willing to stand behind the
opinion of this woman, whom he knew from just two dates.
The way he treated her and this woman was a complete shock to Celine. The disappointment and
sadness of Celine were enormous.
"Celine!" Rachel screamed, as she saw what Celine had just done. The other woman was bleeding.
Acting frantically, he walked promptly towards the woman and held her in his arms. People near had
gathered around them to see what had happened.
The staff in the bar had hurried to get a medical kit, in order to help the victim stop bleeding. Now, after
witnessing his ex's aggression going overboard, Philip turned around and walked straight towards
Celine, looking like he was going to slap her face. But, thankfully, Rachel stopped him.
"Philip! What are you doing? Don't you see how upset she is now? Can't you realize what you and that
woman have just done to her and her self-esteem? And after all this, you want to slap her now?"
Even though he managed to refrain himself from making any non-gentleman like actions and take his
hands back, Philip said angrily,"Rachel, I know you're Celine's good friend. However, look at what she
has done. No matter what has happened between us, she can't hit people like that! It isn't right. I don't
care how she treated me before. But she shouldn't have acted unreasonably troublesome like that! Her
uncontrollable temper is, actually, dangerous to people around."
"Enough! Stop saying all this crap. Things happen in life. We'll pay the medical expenses. Please, call
the ambulance and send her to the hospital." As she lost any desire to talk to Philip any more, Rachel
turned to Celine and patted her shoulders. It was tearing her heart apart to see that her dear friend was
crying so inconsolably.
As the two friends were just about to walk out of the bar, they were stopped by a representative of the
staff.
"No, you can't just leave like this! We've called the police. You must stay and wait here after all the
troubles you've caused."
Even though Celine wanted to push Rachel out of the way and take all the responsibility and
consequences for her actions, Rachel stopped her. "Calm down, Celine. We're friends. Let's face this
together."
"Fine, since it has happened, just call the police! We will stay here." Rachel replied to the staff, as she
touched gently Celine's shoulders in sign of support.
Suddenly, something occurred to Rachel. She took out her cell phone from the pocket. There were
three missed calls and it was already nine thirty in the evening. 'Crap!' Rachel had promised Hiram that
she would go back by nine o'clock.
"Hello…"
"So you finally remembered to call me, huh? I thought you ran away again." Full of mixed emotions,
Hiram was contemplating what else to say.
Looking around like an animal, caught in a trap, Rachel realized she was in the middle of a great big
mess and she could hardly hear anything on the phone, as it was very noisy. So she walked away from
the crowd and sat on an empty chair, holding Celine meanwhile. "I didn't run away, babe... It's just… I'm
in trouble right now. Please, can you come here and help me get out of the situation?"
Hearing Rachel, Hiram sneered,"In trouble? Didn't you tell me that you were going to hang out with
your bestie?"
"It's a long story. Anyway, just come here, please. I'm in the Star Bar now." It was hard for Rachel to NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.
explain to Hiram in just a few sentences this unbelievable movie-like story that took place.
"Okay, I'll be there right away." Looking at the GPS on his phone, Hiram saw that the Star Bar wasn't
far away.
When Rachel missed his first call, Hiram had already checked her location. He was already planning to
drive there and pick her up.
As he parked his car on the street, the noise of a police siren ripped the silence around. Lots of police
vans were driving towards him.
Then they stopped in front of the door of the Star Bar.
"Chad, remember to tell Kun what happened!" Hiram reminded Chad before opening the car door and
quickly hopping out.
Although Hiram didn't exactly know why all those police vans were here, somehow he had the feeling it
was because of his Rachel.
When he saw that an ambulance arrived too, his eyebrows furrowed immediately. 'Someone got hurt?
Could it have been Rachel?'
Thinking about this was electrifying his body with worry and he sped up towards the bar.
