Chapter 905: At first, Bart's fury flared, but as his gaze followed the woman's finger, his anger dissolved into shock, his eyes widening in astonishment. Why was Harlee out here, eating street food with Brixton? Then, it hit him.
His girlfriend was accusing Harlee of bullying her.
He could feel his misfortune mounting...
Bart cursed his luck silently.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfter the incident at the Tartarus Club, he had sworn off dating.
But now, just as he found a new girlfriend, trouble followed him again. It seemed he had a knack for dating troublemakers.
Sweat beaded on Bart's forehead as he quickly pushed the troubleswoman away, stepping back to maintain a safe distance.
Confused, the woman looked at Bart, who had tended to her wounds earlier, wondering why he pushed her away. Before the woman could move toward him again, Bart leaped away, keeping his distance, and rushed over to Harlee, bowing deeply.
"Harlee, what a surprise to see you here," Bart said with a forced smile.
He swore he wouldn't date again this year.
Harlee gave him a sly smile.
"What a coincidence. Is this your new girlfriend?" Fresh updates now on gVlOn high alert, Bart immediately raised his hand and swore, "Harlee, I promise I won't date anyone else this year, and you can handle this woman however you like." Brixton chimed in, "Bart, there's less than half a month left in the year." "Next year! Harlee, I promise not to date anyone even next year either!" Bart quickly amended.
Bart's deep bow and respectful tone left the woman stunned. She hadn't expected him to show such deference to Harlee. She instinctively touched her chest, relieved she hadn't slapped Harlee earlier. If she had, she might have been the one lying on the floor now.
The woman's gaze shifted to the rough-looking man on the floor, and regret washed over her.

The woman tried to leave, but the crowd blocked her path, trapping her in place.
Harlee hadn't expected to encounter Bart here. She had heard from Hamilton that Bart was returning to the country, but she hadn't imagined he'd cback just for a new relationship.
Bart didn't care for foreign women and often found someone while back home.
At first, Harlee didn't take Patrick's jokes about Bart's questionable taste seriously, but Bart's taste turned out to be indeed low.
Harlee had planned to catch Brixton slipping, forcing him to work harder for the next half month since that didn't work out, she decided to pass the task on to Bart. She wiped her hands, glanced up, and gestured indifferently for Bart to sit. Harlee lowered her voice deliberately, speaking softly to Bart.
"No dating for three years. If you have any urges, just keep them to yourself..."
"Understood," Bart replied, thinking this was the punishment, onlyton realize the true punishment was still to come.
