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

Chapter 622: Death sentence

"Kyahh!!!!"

The woman's scream in the crowd echoed across every corner of the nightclub. Even after her scream, her voice continued to resonate as pin-drop silence followed. However, the silence didn't last long because the next moment, everyone saw someone stepping in, followed by the loud noise of a body hitting the table.

For a second, everyone was stunned-flabbergasted.

Their wide eyes shook a little as they stared at Penny, who was still standing in the same spot. Their dilated pupils then moved to the two tall men standing near her, one of whom was bleeding from his hand. After a moment, they all shifted their gaze to the table where the loud noise had come from.

There, buried underneath the tipped table and some bottles and glasses, was Aiden.

"..." Everyone was once again stunned and silent, processing what had happened in the split second they blinked.

All they knew was that Aiden had managed to grab a shard and tried to stab Penny with it. And then, Aiden went flying across the area. Again, the crowd shifted their gaze at the two men standing near Penny.

"Huh?" Penny blinked repeatedly, confused. "What in the world...?"

Slowly, she lifted her gaze, and it quickly fell on Aiden, who was buried among the table and chairs. Her face contorted as she tilted her head to the side.

"Did I get superpowers in this lifetime as well?" she wondered to herself, recalling the shiny glint from the bottom of Aiden's fist as he had tried to stab her. That guy had been so flimsy with it that even though Penny saw it late, she knew she could have dodged it or at least reduced the damage.

But the guy went flying!
