Before she could finish, Dylan's hand shot up, clamping around her neck with an iron grip. The air in her lungs seemed to collapse, like a deflating balloon, as a suffocating pressure spread through her body.
Helena, still reeling from the initial shock of Dylan's slap, rushed forward in a panic. "Mr. Wright, please, I know you're angry, but Anne had nothing to do with this!"
