The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 2743

"The police won't take you seriously if you make a report about me. All I did was say a few words. You can't bend the law to suit your needs," added the homeless man.

Rita clenched her fists and breathed heavily. "And you think you can get away with being a creep? You were harassing me!"

The hobo was already determined to satisfy his lust that day. He lunged forward and wrapped his arms around Rita's thighs.

Rita tumbled to the ground with him and cried out in pain. "Ahh!" She kicked wildly, landing hits on the man's face several times. Though he wailed in pain, his grip nonetheless remained firm.

At that moment, another homeless man shrugged off his tattered cotton jacket and rose to his feet. He shouted, "What's with all the noise? Some people are trying to get some shut-eye here!"

Rita looked at the man with teary eyes as if imploring for his help. The drunk hobo who attacked her did not expect to draw so much attention to where he was, and he released his grip on her out of fear. Rita seized the opportunity to retreat, but he merely took his jacket and donned it.

"Stop struggling. It's just us two here. He's not going to do anything about us, anyway..."

Rita glanced down. She had never relied on other people because she had long grasped the reality that the only person one could rely on was oneself.

Rita only stopped when she was dripping with sweat. She pounded the wooden stick on the ground and panted heavily. "Oh, so now you're using drunkenness as an excuse? If you try something like this again when you're drunk, I'll beat you until no one can recognize you!"

Rita pointed the piece of wood at his groin, which caused the drunkard to curl up in a ball. He glanced into Rita's eyes and acknowledged that he was fearful for his life. Never had he seen a woman who was capable of such brutality.

Rita then raised the stick high, causing the drunkard to shut his eyes tightly. However, the homeless man from earlier intervened and took the stick from her. "Stop hitting him. He'll die."

Eventually, Rita relinquished the stick despite still fuming in anger. "I'm the one who'll be facing the consequences if he dies."
