Chapter 624: Penny's order

Angel paced back and forth in the hallway, making the rest of the bodyguards on standby follow him with their gazes.

"Captain, can you please stop pacing? I'm getting a little dizzy," one of the bodyguards finally said when he couldn't take it anymore.

Angel glanced at his colleague, only to see the others sporting the same sentiment. A deep exhale slipped past his lips, and he clicked his tongue. He gazed at the door to the private ward where Penny was.

"How can I calm down?" Angel said. "Uncle Wild already boarded his flight here. If he sees her with that injury... all hell will break loose."

All the bodyguards were speechless, remembering that Wild was on his way to Anteca. He would be moving here to help Penny with the Prime Group operation. Not to mention, he would be with Yugi. With those two making a fuss, they exchanged glances with Angel and nodded in understanding.

"Captain, continue pacing," said the same person who had earlier asked Angel to stop. "Just know that we've been loyal to you from the beginning until now."

Angel hissed, glaring at his subordinates, who were shamelessly asking him to protect them. However, he didn't dwell on it when he caught an approaching figure from the corner of his eye. Turning his head, he saw Mark sauntering toward them.

"Will you look at that?" Angel slowly faced the approaching Mark. "He's even walking as if he's in a fashion show."

"What happened?" Mark's first question came as he stepped into their vicinity. "What happened?" Angel's face contorted as he pointed his thumb over his shoulder. "Do you know who is inside that ward?"

Mark slowly shifted his eyes to the door and then back to Angel. "Is she okay?"
