The Traps of the Black Swan

98

Seungri could feel Jennie wanted to escape hence she was trying her all to get away from him. Hence he misidentified as she was trying to run when she took a step back.

He sprung towards her to catch hold of her but before his hand could reach midway, Jennie swung her leg with all the force and energy she could muster up by aiming his head below his jawline.

Her aim was the nerve next to his throat to give the pain that reaches his pressure point and keep hold of his breath.

Seungri's eyes widened at her maneuver and he quickly reacted by pulling the carpet under her feet to lose her balance.

'Thud.'

The speed of Seungri was a little late and his mistake was getting near her. Jennie kicked him right at her target before her left foot lost balance and fell on the couch.

Seungri's head hit the coffee table with a painful strong force. His chin had swollen, he felt his entire body go numb due to sharp pain at the nerve and his head hit the corner of the coffee table. He fell on the floor dizzily unable to believe what was happening.

'Is this a nightmare?' Jennie desperately wanted to wake up to get out of it. Despite hurting him to escape, her tears failed to stop, and cried harder than before.

She never in her dreams thought of hurting anybody. She always forgave the ones who hurt her, how deeper it may be. So seeing him groaning in pain when she had the chance to leave, she still cried without understanding why her life was in jeopardy.

She hadn't done anything to Vance Hays, yet she had to endure all the curses from both the family and see all her school friends leave her like a plague. Now she was in an unknown place where the businessman who is always entitled as ideal in every relation, who was praised as a role model by the media was lying on the floor completely naked.

Why wouldn't she be frightened? She was trembling profusely suppressing herself from crying out. She still didn't get the answer to a question she was trying to find for many years, why does she have to endure so many things?

Seeing Seungri recover quickly, she knew she had to take action quickly else nobody could save her if he killed her right then and there. She might have given in to anything but this was something no girl would agree to accept.

She got up quickly and yelled as she swung her leg behind, "What have I ever done to you all?"

Before her leg could swing front, Seungri who was still unsteady getting up the floor bellowed in horror, "Heyyyy...."

Jennie swung her leg squeezing her eyes shut before running towards the door hearing Seungri holler in extreme pain.

Was her kick that strong? She didn't know and she didn't care. 'Run run run...' She had nothing in mind but to run away from there. She ran out of the room and sprinted without looking right or left.

When she saw the elevator, she realized it wasn't the ground floor and darted towards it with blurry vision due to tears as her left hand pressed her right arm due to pain.

Her teary eyes didn't notice Dylan Harmon exiting the elevator.

Dylan stopped in his tracks, his gaze traced her top toe in disbelief. Escaping from Seungri's clutch? It was unbelievable for him to trust his gaze. He knew what kind of animal Seungri was.

He quickly stepped a leg behind to stop the elevator door from closing obviously knowing she was trying to escape and Seungri wasn't successful to defile her.

Dylan could see her hurt; physically, her side of the forehead was bruised, her right arm had turned green with a blood clot. He could also feel her hurt emotionally deeper than on the body. Despite seeing her weep silently, he oddly knew she wanted to cry louder to let out her agony but was too afraid to pause for even a second.
