Chapter 1625: I think I just killed someone.

Penny let out a shallow breath as she slowly pushed herself to sit up. Glancing back at the door, she clicked her tongue faintly and reached for her phone on the bedside table, speed-dialing Angel.

The call went through after two rings, but Angel's voice didn't come through.

"Angel," Penny called out. "Did he leave with Mark?"

"He took Mark with him."

"Did he see it?"

Penny let out a deep sigh and nodded. "Yes, he did."

"Should I follow him, just in case?" Angel asked.

"There's no need for that." Penny's shoulders sagged a little. "I think I know what he's going to do."

"And you're going to let him?"
