The body was soon brought back.

Stephen and his classmates could only watch as Penny collapsed over the body, crying uncontrollably.

Several classmates wiped their tears, and Stephen's eyes turned red as well.

Stephen instructed people to handle Penny's affairs, then said goodbye to his classmates and returned to the Quinns' estate.
