Chapter 192 With a Bodyguard Close at Hand

"Watch and see what happens to those who took your place, to those who hurt you.," Kelvin coldly remarked.

Penelope shuddered involuntarily.

She had always known how ruthless Kelvin could be but seeing Fiona's wretched state sent chills down her spine.

The faint smell of blood hung in the air, making her feel nauseous.

However, fearing that Kelvin might misinterpret her reaction, Penelope struggled to suppress the discomfort in her stomach.

"I don't want to watch," Penelope said. "I want to leave."

But Kelvin remained motionless.

"Penelope-" Fiona's hoarse voice croaked, "just... just end it for me. I... I don't want to live anymore..."

Her hands were covered in blood, new injuries layered over old ones, and even her little finger was gone.

The extent of the hellish torture Fiona had endured these past days was all too apparent.

Suddenly, a rat sprang out from nowhere, scurrying onto Fiona's body, and began to gnaw at her festering wounds.

Penelope stepped back.

"Let me go, please," Penelope pleaded. "Kelvin... I don't want to see this."

"Don't you feel a sense of relief seeing her like this?" Kelvin asked.

Kelvin's fingers gently traced the scar on Penelope's cheek, a flicker of pity passing through his eyes.

Everyone who had hurt her deserved death!

"Good is rewarded, and evil is punished," Penelope said as she turned away. "It's too gloomy here; I feel uncomfortable."

Hearing her words, Kelvin finally led her out. "All right, we'll leave," he yielded.

"No, no..." "Fiona's voice táded into the growing squeak's of the rat.
