Chapter 680: Give him the benefit of the doubt

When Finn came to Penny's office, she was certain he knew she would have him followed. Thus, Finn went to see Nina, as if he were so sure Jonathan would approach her. He was correct. While Penny's people followed Finn, he led them to the very person who had been filling Penny's mind with question marks.

"He looks kind." Angel stood around where everyone was seated, holding the stolen photograph of Jonathan. "This is the guy from the sketch? The forensic sketch was amazing. He almost got it."

Mark nodded. "Now that I'm seeing it up close, he does look like the sketch."

"Let everyone know about this face," Zoren ordered the two. "It's better to keep an eye on him now and see what he's up to."

"Yes, sir." Mark didn't ask questions as he nodded, but Angel was different.

Angel darted his eyes between Penny and Zoren before asking, "Can I ask a question? Just what exactly can this guy do? What did he do to earn your attention?"

Zoren drew his lips into a thin line before moving his gaze to Penny. He thought she should be the one to answer Angel. After all, how could they explain that they were going to keep an eye on this guy because he was someone Penny could remember from her past life?

Penny stared at Angel, expecting such a question. "He's going to kill me."

Her answer, however, was something no one expected-even Zoren. All three men gazed at her with equal shock and confusion. But Penny remained unfazed by the looks cast upon her.

"He hasn't done anything to me yet," she clarified. "But I'm certain he would."

After all, how could anyone explain Jonathan's presence on her execution day? Why would he be there? Jonathan and Penny didn't know each other, and yet, it seemed that the man came to her execution for one reason: to make sure she would die.
