Chapter 694

Eugene stood up and snatched the phone over. "I want you back home immediately!" he shouted.

Penny scoffed. "Who are you to tell me what to do? Should I go home just because you want me to?"

"30 minutes. If I don't see you here, I'll terminate all your credit cards!" He ended the call right after that. He could hear Penny's protests just before ending the call. Time continued to tick, and the 30 minutes felt longer than usual. Eugene sat on the couch like an ice statue.
