Pampered by my three brothers: the return of the neglected heiress

Chapter 616: Dodged a poisonous bullet

"Now, what shall I do to you?" Penny chuckled, raising an eyebrow as Aiden desperately scrambled onto the floor. He faced her, on his knees.

"Please forgive me!" he exclaimed, like an obedient child, bowing until his head was on the ground. "I promise I won't do this again! I just want to talk to Lily!"

Penny tilted her head to the side. "If you want to talk to someone, you ask nicely. If they don't want to, then go away. You don't hire some gangsters from the street and dress them as bodyguards as a Plan B."

"Please! I know I was wrong! I made a mistake! It's just that I really want to talk to Lily and fix our relationship!" Aiden begged, letting go of the little dignity he had

left.

Penny had fought a total of seven big guys without even breaking a sweat. She did it so easily and gracefully that she could fight ten more of them as a warm-up. Aiden might be a foolish and greedy man, but he wasn't stubborn enough to seek more beating.

"Please! I wouldn't do this again!" Aiden exclaimed, and when he didn't hear anything from Penny, he turned toward Lily. "Babe—I mean, Lily! Please forgive me! I just love you so much, and my heart is so devastated—ah! Ah!"

His face twisted in pain as Penny pinched the top of his ear, pulling him up as she rose to her feet. She tugged on his ear, making him wince, unsure whether to touch her hand on his ear or just let it be.

"Lily, what do you want to do with this guy?" Penny asked, raising her voice so Lily could hear her loud and clear. "He's quite the clown, isn't he?"
