Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism

Chapter 139 Revenge

Wally sensed trouble and tried to sneak away.

Violeta was quick on her feet. She grabbed him on time and said, "Mr. Wally, don't even think about leaving.

"You've trashed the shop. Aren't you going to pay for the damages?"

Wally was terrified. He had thought this woman was just good at fighting, but she had taken down the wrestler he brought from home.

This is terrifying!

She's a beast!

"I'll pay! I'll pay!"

Wally stammered, "How much? I'll send the money over in a bit."

Violeta shook her head and said, "No way. You're staying here. Call someone to bring the money."

Wally, now completely subdued, agreed, "Alright."

They walked into the pen shop.

Cyril had already found the pen for her and said, "Here's the one you wanted."

Violeta took the box and opened it. Inside, the pen lay perfectly. Its body was beautiful, made with the finest materials.

Hayden saw the pen and immediately recognised it, saying, "It's the Umber pen."

Cyril praised, "You have a good eye."
