Chapter 4 Public Humiliation

555 Words
Within a short span of time, rows of eye-catching promotional banners were hung directly opposite the entrance of Margot's newly opened bar. One read: The Bar Owned by the Famous Airline Captain's Mistress, Full of Sweet Hidden Secrets. One read: A Perfect Match Between America's Top Bar Hostess and the Most Handsome Commercial Pilot. One read: Drop by the Mistress's Bar for an Unforgettable Drinking Experience. Groups of elderly local women even gathered near the shop entrance, munching on casual daily snacks while pointing fingers and speaking harshly toward Margot without any restraint. "What a shameless homewrecker to seduce another woman's husband! Disgraceful behavior indeed!" They clapped their hands in unison as they chanted mocking phrases, pushing Margot to the verge of utter fury. Right after stirring up enough public gossip, Juliet arrived at the bar in grand style with a large group of people trailing behind her. "Smash everything inside this place," she ordered. A team of well-trained hired men rushed straight into the venue and began wrecking every piece of furniture and decoration without hesitation. Loud crashing and shattering noises echoed nonstop throughout the whole shop. Curious onlookers gathered outside to watch the lively scene unfold. "Drama alert! Wife vs. mistress—this is gonna be good." "Didn't see that coming. The bar owner's still playing the homewrecker game at her age?" "Or maybe the captain's just lonely and adventurous." "Ew. I'm boycotting his airline from now on." Watching her newly decorated bar turn into complete ruins once again right before her eyes, Margot burned with uncontrollable anger. She turned swiftly to instruct her shop assistants in a sharp tone, "Hurry up and contact Felix right away. Tell him his wife is here, causing trouble once more." After giving out the order, Margot instantly adjusted her facial expression and walked forward with a fake smile plastered across her face. "Welcome again, Ms. Graves. Can you not control your own husband and always vent all your frustrations on my business premises? I could not care less about all this trouble anyway. Felix has more than enough money to open another bar for me with just a few tears from my side. It must be exhausting for you to keep running around like a demolition crew to ruin my businesses over and over again." Juliet did not waste another second listening to her arrogant taunts. She raised her hand and delivered a powerful slap that sent Margot sprawling heavily onto the ground. Sharp broken glass fragments scattered all over the floor pricked Margot's hands and exposed skin the second she fell, bringing her intense stinging pain that made her grit her teeth hard in agony. After finishing wrecking the entire bar, Juliet left two more men behind to teach Margot a proper lesson before turning around to leave the scene in a relaxed, unrestrained manner. The next day, major local news headlines were all dominated by incidents related to Juliet. "Handsome Airline Captain Funds Mistress's Bar, Legal Wife Stages Dramatic On-site Wreckage." Upon seeing this trending news report, Felix flew into a towering rage and hurled his phone hard against the wall. The device shattered into countless broken pieces the instant it hit the hard surface. Grabbing his car keys in a fit of fury, he rushed straight toward their shared residence at top speed.
