Anna Hughes was trembling uncontrollably, unable to speak for a while.
The look on Shawn Clegg's face was terrifying, something she had never seen before.
"Where is the key?" Shawn Clegg was unbelievably able to prop himself up by a single hand on a barrel, bearing his entire weight, while holding Anna Hughes with his other hand.
He had never told Anna Hughes, nor had she ever seen, that every night he had been training his upper body strength by doing push-ups and weight lifting with his remaining limbs.
Ever since Shawn Clegg realized that he must learn to survive without his legs, he began to train his upper body methodically.
So now, supporting his body with one hand and holding Anna Hughes with the other was a piece of cake for him.
Anna Hughes croaked out, "Dy-Dylan... Please, let me go first..."
"I'll give you three seconds," Shawn Clegg ignored her and continued to press, "If you can't produce the key, I'll break your neck."
Finally, Anna Hughes burst into tears.
