Jimmy stood where he was while his gaze swept over Ariah and then fell on Anna.
Looking at Anna's dazed expression, he frowned. "What's wrong with her?"
"Well, she's scared out of her wits." Kevin came to Anna's back. "I merely used a little trick and she's become like this."
Jimmy shot him a glance. "Back then, you kidnapped her and forced her to watch her family die in front of her. So of course, she's terrified of you. Even now, when your name was mentioned, she would be frightened out of her wits."
This was also why Anna had fallen ill when she saw someone who looked like Kevin two years ago.
With a chuckle, Kevin continued, "She deserves it. Because she was the one who provoked me first."
Jimmy didn't bother to listen to his nonsense anymore. He squinted at him and asked, "Did you get cosmetic surgery?"
Kevin's appearance was completely different from eight years ago. Only his voice still sounded familiar.
"Yes, and skin grafting. Don't forget that it was you who had burnt me." Gradually, Kevin's smile faded away and turned into a gloomy look.
Seeing that, Jimmy curled his lips. "Oh, then you're quite lucky. After being shot in the fire, you still managed to survive!"
Abruptly, Kevin gave Anna a hard slap in the face.
But Anna didn't react in the slightest bit.
"Well, keep mocking, and I'll give your darling another good slap!" Kevin glanced coldly at Jimmy. "I remember back then, you were gonna marry Anna. I don't believe that you've never loved her!"
Jimmy stared at him expressionlessly.
"Oh, wait. Am I wrong? She's not the woman you love now?" Kevin suddenly grinned and walked up to Ariah, saying in a creepy tone, "Ariah's the one you love now, isn't she?"
Saying that, he slapped Ariah so hard that she could almost see stars in her eyes.
Damn, this maniac! But Ariah could only curse silently.
At the same time, Jimmy couldn't bear it anymore. "If you're still a f*cking human, then stop hitting them!" "Tut-tut, it seems that you're really worried about this woman." Kevin stood behind Ariah. All of his interests were on her now. "I thought that you're a devoted man, but it turns out that you're not."
Ariah held back the pain and interrupted, "Bah! I don't love him anymore! This scumbag doesn't deserve my love. Kevin, are you blind to think that he loves me? If he does, he wouldn't have slept with Anna! Disgusting!"
Hearing that, Kevin gave Jimmy a meaningful glance. "Jimmy, not bad, huh?"
Jimmy merely said coldly, "Cut the crap and let them go."
"Well, originally, I did intend to let them go, but now I've changed my mind."
"Kevin, they have nothing to do with our business. Don't drag them into this!"
Instantly, Kevin's face darkened. "Jimmy, have you forgotten what I said back then?"
Stunned, Jimmy then recalled that Kevin had once said that if he managed to live, he would take his favorite person's life and gifted it to him...
Jimmy hadn't forgotten what he said and he believed that Kevin would do what he said.
"Fine, what do you want?" Jimmy asked deeply.
"Very good. Finally, you're asking me something interesting." Kevin chuckled and nodded his chin to his waist, ordering, "Take off the gun on your waist."
