She was here too, right? How could Penny not even think of her? Although Penny did mention her name, the line was cut off. How unfair was that? Surely, Penny had more loving and appreciative remarks for her too.

’Well...’

Her brows briefly rose as she shrugged, finding it plausible. After all, Hugo no longer needed to worry since Penny was safe. Just as Mint fell silent, her phone vibrated against her chest. Retrieving it from her vest, her brows furrowed.

Mint secretly glanced around before opening the message from the same number Penny had used.
