Chapter 1220: Don't let go.

The strong, harsh gust of wind almost threw Penny and Zoren off balance, if not for their position and where they stood. Despite the sudden wind inside the aircraft, Penny managed to peek. The moment she did, all she saw was the man lunging at Atlas from behind.

"Atlas!" she screamed, her eyes widening, her breath stopping completely.

Her piercing scream alerted Hugo right after the gust of wind almost pushed him to the floor. Even before seeing the situation, he knew something terrible had just happened. His heart pounded against his chest as an adrenaline rush surged throughout his body - something that hadn't even happened during the fight earlier.

Clasping the nearest seat, Hugo forced his body to turn against the wind. As soon as he did, his pupils constricted and his irises dilated.

There, Zoren was grabbing onto the foot of the seat while his other hand held Penny's ankle. He couldn't see Penny because she was on the floor, with the seats blocking Hugo's view. However, with the open emergency door and Atlas nowhere in sight, Zoren holding onto the seat with only one hand, painted the big picture.

"Kyahh!!" Another scream from Penny echoed as the aircraft suddenly tilted, making Zoren slide down. Hugo was also thrown off to the other side, almost tumbling if not for holding onto something to fight the force.

When Hugo forced himself to get up, another turbulence happened, making him lose balance in his panic state.

"Penny!" Zoren shouted, clenching his teeth as he held tightly to the seat. However, he could feel his hand slowly sliding from the weight of his other hand.

Turning his head, all he could see was his wife's back. Penny was lying on her stomach, her chest dangling over the open door. Seeing this, Zoren clenched his teeth even more, trying to pull her back, but to no avail. She only moved half an inch.
