Before Nina Waters could react, Damian Sterling's hand was already at her throat, gripping it as if to choke the life out of her.
The assistant stood by, attempting to pull Nina away, but a single glare from Damian halted any further action.
Nina coughed violently under the pressure of Damian's grip. "I...I didn't do anything!" she gasped.
Her protest only fueled Damian's rage. How could his woman end up in the emergency room over "nothing"? Damian pressed Nina against the wall, slowly lifting her by the throat until her feet dangled off the ground. Through barely opened eyes, Nina could see the veins bulging on Damian's forehead.
