Chapter 651: Did she make the right call?

Was this meeting a blessing in disguise? Or were the stars just aligning? Was this meant to happen? For Penny and Finn to be in the same place?

Questions like: Where in the world did Finn come from? What was his agenda? Did he know about Penny? These questions had been filling her mind until her head was spinning.

"There isn't." Finn cast his eyes down. "But there used to be."
