Chapter 449: Now you got an entire team

Half an hour later...

"Wait, Renren!" Penny clasped Zoren's arm to stop him from getting into the car.

He paused, glancing at her hand, then back to her eyes. "Yes?"

"Hehe." Penny chuckled, raising her brows. "Are you sure you're going to meet my eldest brother?"

Zoren nodded. "Are you sure you don't want to come?"

Penny pressed her lips together, forcing a smile. She hesitated, tempted to tell him that while Atlas wasn't a fighter like Hugo, his words could be sharper than a dagger. But seeing the determination in Zoren's eyes, she didn't have the heart to stop him. Moreover, she believed in him!

"Never mind," she said, releasing his arm and stepping back. "Take care on your way. Let me know if you guys discuss anything important."

"Mhm." Zoren gave a subtle smile and nodded before stepping into the backseat of the car.

Penny took another step back, giving the vehicle room to move. She raised a hand, waving like a diligent wife seeing her husband off to work.

"Bye~" she whispered, watching the car pull away.

Penny's men, along with a few of Zoren's men, had escorted him for protection. Many were still recovering from the previous night's showdown, so they assumed they just had to stay with Penny and watch for their own safety while hiding all alcohol beverages from her sight.

Shifting their gaze to where Penny stood, some of the men who had been employed by her exchanged glances. A spark flickered in their eyes as if they were waiting for the right moment to act.

"Bye..." Penny sighed as the car disappeared past the mansion's wide gates. Suddenly, her men flanked her on either side, sandwiching her.
