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

Chapter 1169: Know where to aim

[PRESENT TIME]

Mark rushed to the window to assess the situation, only this time, he heard helicopters approaching. Peeking through the gap, he heaved a sigh of relief.

Help had arrived just in time.

"I need to move him," he muttered to himself as he rushed back to the couch where Zoren lay unconscious. Standing by the side, Mark bent over to carry his boss on his back. Zoren was hurt, and Mark feared this might send him back to square one before his treatment.

But just as Mark reached out to grab Zoren's arm, the latter slowly opened his eyes. Mark momentarily froze, wide-eyed.

"Master!" he called out in panic. "Help has arrived. I think I just saw Angel. I'm taking you out—"

Mark's voice trailed off as he noticed a tear rolling down from the corner of Zoren's eyes. His brows rose, confused by the sight.

Was Zoren hurt that badly to make him cry?

"I'll get you out of here now," Mark panicked, thinking his boss was more injured than he had imagined. But then, Zoren whispered;

"Penelope." Zoren slowly turned his eyes to meet Mark's gaze. "Where is she?"

Mark didn't answer. He had no answer. After finding Zoren and after Zoren lost consciousness, Mark guarded the area. He knew help would come, so he didn't risk taking Zoren out and encountering enemies on the way. He couldn't fight while carrying him, after all.

In other words, he hadn't looked for Penny.
