Chapter 496

Chapter 496: Never gonna be on that other side again

Days passed, and as time continued without pause, things slowly returned to normal. Penny went back to the office two days after the incident. Though she had already been given permission to return to Zoren's home, for some reason, she hadn't done so.

He faced her again, still grinning. "What matters is that you are going to be doomed."

"I'm not the one on the other side of the glass," she remarked calmly. "Between us, your doom is closer than mine."
