Chapter 1151: Gone

Eventually, Zoren and Glenn settled on an amount. However, everyone in the room knew Zoren was not pleased about it — not one bit. If Penny had not interfered, she wouldn't have been surprised if he had ended up giving up his entire fortune just to save them.

"Men." Glenn snapped his fingers, clearing his throat and acting as if he hadn't just hit a jackpot. At the same time, the person outside the door opened it. He cocked his head back and said, "Find these two and check if they were one of the recruits. It seems there was a mix-up. Bring them here once you confirm their identities."

The soldier wordlessly approached and checked the phone. He didn't need to look for long, glancing at Glenn to catch any of their secret signals.

"I'll double-check," said the soldier, making Glenn nod.

Having said that, the soldier didn't say anything else and left. As he departed, Glenn set his eyes on the couple with a wide smile.

"It won't take long," he said. "If they are here, then you'll be with them shortly."

Penny heaved a sigh of relief and flashed Zoren a smile. The latter, however, didn't seem as excited as her. Well, considering he would be shelling out a lot of money that wasn't part of this trip, it was justified.

"Ahem!" Penny cleared her throat and leaned closer to him, covering the side of her mouth as she whispered to him. "Ren — I mean, Doreen, is the money you're giving... a bit too much?"

Although she meant to whisper, Penny made sure Glenn would be able to hear it.

"Too much?" Zoren frowned at his wife. "It's a life, my love. Your brother - my brother, and Benjamin. If anything, I don't think there's any amount that could equate to their lives."

"I know, but..." She raised her brows and glanced at Glenn before looking back at him. "My brother should treat you well after this. Goodness. Even with his income, I don't think he'd be able to repay you for it."
