Chapter 1565: Chapter 1565: He Will Strangle Him to Death
At that moment, with a “smack,” her phone was ruthlessly snatched from her and smashed to the ground with force!
The sound echoed loudly in the quiet night sky, an unmistakable boom.
The phone screen shattered instantly, going dark!
“Who were you calling.” It was Jesse Rowan.
In the darkness, the man’s expression was grim and murky, his tone filled with a spontaneous anger.
In the faint light, his eyes flashed with a fiery glow, like blazing flames, fiercely burning.
Jesse Rowan was much taller than Joan Harry, and invisibly, he towered over her like a mountain.
Joan Harry was terrified, her wits scattered completely!
She opened her wide, fearful eyes to look at him. No, why did he come back…
Joan Harry’s first instinct was to run!
She turned around, abandoning her phone, and sprinted forward!
She didn’t know what lay ahead, nor what awaited her.
She only knew that behind her was a demon, a creature that would devour her, flesh and blood!
Cold wind whipped across her face, leaving her senseless as she leaned against the wall, stumbling forward!
Her heart pounded fiercely, almost leaping out of her throat.
However, her legs felt as if they were filled with lead, overwhelmingly heavy.
Behind her, Jesse Rowan let out a cold laugh and strode forward, swiping his long arm to wrench her back fiercely!
“No!” Joan Harry was caught by him, falling helplessly against his hard, cold chest, panic-stricken.
Her hair fell loose, utterly disheveled.
“I asked who you were calling.” Jesse Rowan spoke almost word by word, each sentence laced with anger.
Joan Harry said nothing.
“Not talking? Joan Harry, as it turns out, I’ve heard it all.” Jesse Rowan pinched her chin, as though gripping a frail cat, effortlessly, “It was Sylvan Cheney, wasn’t it? I always wondered, each night being with me was like facing execution. Could it be you still can’t let go of that man in your heart?”
Joan Harry’s chin was cruelly squeezed, her throat clutched tight, not a single word could escape.
Breathing became difficult.
Her face shifted from pale to red, her large eyes glowering at Jesse Rowan.
Tears welled in her eye sockets, and traces of dried tears still marked her face.
“What is so good about that man that you can’t forget him? Repay him? With what? With your broken, ruined body?” Jesse Rowan tightened his grip fiercely, like an enraged lion.
Joan Harry closed her eyes, two streams of tears falling from the corners of her eyes.
At this moment, she should slap him.
But unfortunately, she was barely breathing.
Perhaps he’d strangle her to death.
With that thought, she laughed, the curve of her lips resembling a poisonous poppy, seductive yet venomous.
Death would mean an end, no longer having to endure any of this.
It wasn’t her first thought of death, yet before she had always held on.
If this time Jesse Rowan ended her with his own hands, it would be a good thing, saving her from making the decision herself.
Cold tears fell, squarely landing on Jesse Rowan’s hand.
“Joan Harry, remember this: you are only mine to play with. Run? Go ahead, try running for me.” Jesse Rowan’s words were exceptionally vicious, his expression notably unpleasant.
At first, he could still feel Joan Harry’s struggles in his palm.
Gradually, the woman went completely still.
Her face turned ashen, as if life had slipped away.
Jesse Rowan’s expression shifted, and he released his grip.
