Chapter 577: Nonsense death

"That's enough digging. Time to bury the hatchet. Go, lie down."

For some reason, Zoren, Angel, and Mark weren't surprised to hear that.

However, the diligent Nathaniel seemed to still be shocked, even when he already knew this pit was for him.

Nathaniel gasped, hugging the shovel and then going down on his knees. He kept his head up to look at the emotionless expression in her eyes.

"Madam-young madam! Miss Penelope! Please don't do this to me!" he begged. "I haven't done anything to you! Even if I did, I didn't mean it! I'm sorry, okay?! Please! Can we talk about this?"

"You... haven't done anything to me?" she repeated under her breath, almost laughing at his pleas. "You didn't... mean it?"

Sorry? Was it that simple for him to say that after everything she had gone through?

Penny let out another wave of chuckles, staring at the man begging for his life. "What a ridiculous sight," she murmured. "What a ridiculous and confusing night." The only thing that wasn't confusing at all was the anger swelling in her heart as she looked at this man. Penny kicked some of the dirt near her into the pit.

"Miss-urgh!" Nathaniel stuck his tongue out as some dirt went into his mouth. He wiped it with his dirty shirt, but the ground kept falling on him.

"Ugh! Wait wait!" He irritably yapped, flinging his arms around. "Wait-argh! Are you out of your mind?!"

Penny stopped kicking the mountain of earth on her side, only to resume again without a word.

"Argh! Wait!" Nathaniel kept flinging his arms, yelling as more dirt got into them. "Stop-please! I was wrong-whatever I did! Please! Wait!"

Penny kept kicking the ground and Nathaniel continued screaming, Zoren kept his eyes on his wife. Mark and Angel,
