John approached her, covered in a scent of tobacco. The smell filled Nina's nose while her heart started pumping faster.
Nina hurriedly turned her head, used all her strength to resist and shouted his name, trying to stop him.
"John!"
He turned a deaf ear to her. As he got closer and closer to her, he felt that her body trembled slightly. He was really pleased that he still had this effect on her.
He had said that she was always better at physical communication.
He thought that the only way to get through to Nina, was to teach her a lesson.
How dare she be so outwardly defiant?
"I'm giving you a chance to take back what you said," John whispered in her ear and gently bit her earlobe. His threatening tone shot into her ear while it felt like an electric current pulsed through her veins.

"Mr. Shi, Henry had a car accident and the Land Rover car was wrecked. He said that you can rest assured."
As soon as Adrian finished his words in an angry voice, John's feet seemed to lose all co-ordination as he eased off the accelerator.
He was astonished. He didn't expect that Henry would use such a dangerous way to dispose the car.
"Henry had an accident while driving your car." He quickly turned the car around. "Let's go to the hospital first."
