Chapter 485 The Footage
Jennifer was silent as her tears rolled down her cheeks. All of a sudden, someone opened the door. It was Kevin who entered the house sneakily. The moment he saw her in that state, he froze.
After he recollected himself, he ignored Jennifer and Linda and went further into the room to begin checking through the surveillance footage. “Sh*t!” came a cry before the sound of glass breaking came.
“Kev, what’s the matter?” Linda rushed into the room and instantly saw Kevin sitting in front of the computer with an unusually pale face. It looked as if he had suffered a great fright, for even his eyeballs were almost popping out of their sockets.
“It’s a g-ghost!” Kevin fearfully pointed at the screen. Jennifer finally recomposed herself a little and walked over. “What’s going on?”
“Look.” Kevin pointed at the screen again, which was showing the scene in the living room. He then replayed the video, and they saw a black mist in the shape of a human floating into the place. Then, Donald walked in and pushed Linda down onto the table before kicking Skylar.
At that, Jennifer turned furious. “Put the frame rate to the minimum!” she ordered. Kevin nodded and slowed it down until the screen almost seemed frozen. Then, they saw a man in black clothes tiptoe into the room, seemingly in search of something.
He later stood behind Linda, but she did not detect his presence at all as she continue drying her damp hair. When Kevin saw the man, his pupils shrank. “It’s him!”
A similar look of terror appeared on Linda’s face as well. The man with a mustache silently approached her from behind before staring at her, but she had no idea of his presence. It was a frightening scene to see.
Linda then asked, “Who is he?”
Kevin shuddered before telling her what happened earlier that night. Seemingly realizing something, Jennifer continued playing the video.
Then, they saw the man made his move. A long blade appeared in his hands, and he swung it toward Linda’s head. Right then, Donald came in. He rushed toward Linda and pushed her down against the table to avoid the fatal attack.
The man in black then waved his blade again, and this time, he aimed it at Skylar’s head. However, Donald gave a sweeping kick at Skylar’s legs. Skylar fell to the ground, but she survived the attack.
Donald then made his move. He grabbed the man in black’s neck, and blood began to bloom there like a flower. However, the next thing man in black did was leap out of the window.
After that, Jennifer entered and shouted at Donald. Donald said nothing to her as he stared in the direction the attacker fled. Jennifer was stupefied, her eyes bulging. “He… Mom, he was saving you…”
Linda realized that too, but she still stubbornly uttered, “No! He was just trying to molest me. He was trying to take advantage of me, and I’m not going to forgive him for that!”
However, Jennifer could only stare at the screen, rooted to her spot. As she thought about what she had said to him, a pang of remorse started to fill her chest.
I have truly misjudged you. Why did I bother holding out hope for you in the past year? Tyrone is so much better. At the very least, he is polite, more rugged, had better education, and is gentle. You are so aggressive that you hurt others whenever things don’t go your way. Oh, no.
When Jennifer recalled what she said, she could not help but feel tremendous pressure on her chest. It felt as if something had gripped her heart.
Moreover, she even slapped Donald. He was saving her mother’s life, yet not only had she misunderstood him, but she had even treated him poorly.
At that thought, Jennifer’s tears started flowing down again. She hastily took out her phone to call Donald, but she soon found out that Donald had already switched off his phone.
