It had been a dreary summer night, and the rain poured heavily as the air began to feel humid.

On the rooftop of Ebony Hotel, a man was holding a woman in a threatening position as he slowly retreated towards the dangerous edge of the building.

"Don't come any closer!" the man roared through the loud rain; his expression was almost like that of a lunatic.

At that moment, Sophia felt like both the sky and the ground were spinning.She could feel the wind brushing her back.

The man's rapid breathing blew over her head, and his thick arms tightly strangled her neck.

With every step he took, frightened screams erupted from the horrified onlookers.She knew why they were terrified.

Falling from a high-rise building that scaled hundred of meters was enough for anyone to die in a horrific manner of their blood and flesh splattered on the ground below.

The expressions on their faces changed rapidly.They looked at Sophia with sympathy or pity.Their eyes seemed to show that they had never thought that one day, one of the beloved lovers would become a ticking time bomb that would explode at any time.

In contrast to their shock, she was remarkably calm.

Sophia was neither crying nor making a fuss.

"He is likely to be having his honeymoon abroad by now.Even if you lose your life like this, it would mean nothing to him.Zack, listen to my advice.Let go.He will not come for me"

Sophia reasoned to her captor in a calm voice.

However, the man refused to give up and was adamant about his plan.

"Shut up...Shut up! He will come.He will definitely come'’ Zack's arm tightened around her neck.

He turned his attention back to the people in front of them who were slowly trying to approach.

"Step back! Step back, all of you! Or I will take her down with me right now!"

The policemen quickly stepped back when they heard this.

They patiently tried to defuse the situation and said, "Zack, calm down.If the business fails, we can start again.There's still hope for another chance if we stay"

Zack shook his head and roared, "That's impossible! I have nothing...Stop trying to feed me with lies! I'm sick and tired of hearing them! Hurry and call Patrick! Now!"

As he spoke, he took a step back in rage.

Seeing the faces of the crowd turning more horrified, Zack looked even angrier.He dragged Sophia along as he continued to retreat.

As cold as the endless darkness of the night, the wind continued to howl from behind them.
