"What's wrong with a little contact? You seem to be craving it. Isn't that why you came here, to let us do our thing?"

The group burst out laughing.

The drunk stared at Alice and touched her cheek with his hand again.

Alicia slapped his hand away, her voice icy: "I've already called the police. You should think twice about your next move."

The man sneered and said, “The police? My legs are shaking. Weren’t you the one who asked for this?”

Monica, hearing this, was furious. “Shut your fucking mouth! We were eating and you were the one who started it all. Nobody agreed to anything with you.”

The man sneered, “You've been dumped, divorced, and now you're alone and desperate. You resort to dirty tricks just to steal someone else's husband. Isn't it because you crave attention and need a man? I'm here to fill that void in your life. Isn’t that exactly what you want?”

His mocking words provoked laughter from the crowd, who began to murmur among themselves.

"Now I remember why she looks familiar. It's Alicia Bennett."

"She's been in the headlines lately, wrapped up in all kinds of rumors about what she's willing to do to get a man."

"Look at her, so flirtatious. I'm sure she has no shortage of men. Why bother fighting over one?"

"She's a cheapskate. That's why. Beautiful women are all the same: cheap, and they can't live without a man. But they get offended when someone touches them."

"Ha, ha, ha. She wouldn't want a man like you to lay a finger on her."

"As if I wanted to touch her. Who knows how many men she's been with."

The cruel words pierced Alice, sharp as blades.
