I Walked Away And He Lost His Mind (Zephyra and Steven) novel Chapter 432

The pain was excruciating!

I'd never been attacked like this before. It was so sudden, and my assailant was so strong that I had no chance to fight back.

My forehead was bleeding where it had hit the wall, the blood slowly trickling down my face. I struggled to sit up, trying to clear my head from the sharp pain, and looked up at my attacker. My pupils contracted in shock.

"Jonas…"

He was insane. How could he attack me?

Even though we had clashed during the competition, we had once been friends. I had never tried to completely ruin him, yet he was doing this to me?!

Jonas' furious, unhinged voice rang in my ears.

"Zephyra, you're enjoying this, aren't you? Seeing me reduced to fawning over some fat old hag? If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have lost so badly in the competition, wouldn't have been mocked by everyone, and wouldn't have ended up with no options!"

"Ha, you're here for the new design competition, right? Of course, you are. You won first place last time, became Mr. Taylor's prized protégé. You're a big shot now, huh? You see me with her and you can't even be bothered to look me in the eye, is that it? Huh?"

"I swore that if I ever saw you again, I would destroy you, no matter the cost. You want to compete, do you? Let's see how you compete after I break your hands?!"

As he spoke, he moved to stomp on my hand with his leather shoe, and I scrambled to pull it away.

I tried to get to my feet, but my head was still spinning from the impact, and my back ached where he'd kicked me. A physical fight was not an option. Unfortunately, my phone had landed near the elevator, too far for me to reach.

My only hope was to stall for time, praying the elevator would arrive and someone would save me.

"Jonas, I... I wasn't looking down on you! Don't do this. If you make a scene, it won't end well for either of us…"
