Kevin was incapable of screaming for help. Darkness began to close in on him. The only thing he felt was how strong Donald's grip was.
He was certain that the latter was able to break his neck easily.
“Ah! Donald, what are you doing?” All of a sudden, a scream could be heard behind them.
Jennifer, who had just gotten down from her car, witnessed the scene.
She saw the murderous rage in Donald's eyes and Kevin's pale face. His lips had turned purple, and he would die in another minute.
Obviously, she knew Donald was determined to kill Kevin.
“Are you crazy, Donald? Put him down! Put him down now!” Jennifer shrieked and hurried over. She grabbed Donald's arm and kept hitting it.
He did not budge.
It became harder for Kevin to breathe.
Tears were streaming down Jennifer's cheeks. Then, she bit Donald's arm.
Donald removed the invisible shield covering his skin emotionlessly, allowing the bite to sink into his flesh. A bite mark formed on his wrist, and fresh blood began to seep out of the wound.
He loosened his grip, lowered his head, and regarded Jennifer silently.
In return, she shot him a look of sorrow and fury.
Her gaze began to harden, too.
After that, Jennifer ran over to help Kevin up. “Are you all right, Kev?”
Kevin was coughing. Then, he lay down on the ground and laughed hysterically. “See, my dear sister? Donald wants to kill me! The man whom you pine for wants to kill me! Your beloved ex wants to kill me!”
Finally, he sat up without warning and grabbed Jennifer's frail shoulders, giving her a good shake. “Stay away from him! Do you hear me?”
She noticed the fingermarks on Kevin's neck and touched them gently. Following that, she started to cry and looked at Donald. “How could you do that?”
Donald did not answer her. Using a silk handkerchief, he wiped away the blood on his wrist gently.
The beaded bracelet was also stained with blood.
