Chapter 224 One day, she will pay with her life!

"Don't..."

Pennie was covered in blood, the pain was so intense that she could hardly breathe, but upon hearing Zackary's words, she was still terrified to the point of trembling all over.

She had lived for so many years, yet this was the first time she had suffered such pain.

In such unbearable pain, it felt better to die than to live.

She could clearly feel that the skin on her back had been scraped raw, and other parts of her body were continuously bleeding. The broken end of her little finger, which had been rubbed against the hard ground, hurt so much that she began to question her life.

The pain in her body had already made her unbearably upset. If her eyes were to be gouged out as well...

Pennie's face also had several clear scratches. Holding back tears, she shook her head vigorously, "Mr. Zackary, don't gouge out my eyes! I beg you, please don't gouge out my eyes!"

"I was wrong, I truly realized my mistake, I will never dare to hurt Penelope again! I swear, if I dare to provoke Penelope again, may I be struck by lightning and meet a terrible end!"

"I...I will avoid Penelope if I see her in the future, Mr. Zackary, please spare me! I really have realized my mistake!"

There was not a trace of mercy on Zackary's face, only a chilling mockery that struck fear into the heart.

"Pennie, I, Zackary, have never been a merciful Bodhisattva! If anyone dares to harm my woman even a little, I will retaliate a hundredfold!"

Besides, what Pennie had gone through was nothing!

Because of her, the hardships Penelope had endured were even more difficult than what she was experiencing now!

"Don't... Don't..."

Pennie was roughly thrown aside by Zackary, her head spinning and her breath coming in short gasps.

At that time, her mind was in such chaos that she could only beg Zackary for mercy instinctively, non-stop.

Every time Zackary glanced at Pennie, he felt nauseous. He really couldn't understand how Kemp could be attracted to such a disgustingly unbearable creature!

He didn't want to be annoyed by Pennie any longer, so he coolly and indifferently waved his hand at his subordinates, signaling them to finish the fight quickly.

The cold, gleaming knife inched closer and closer to Pennie's eye socket.

Pennie was so scared that she couldn't even make a sound for help. She could only shake her head stiffly, her little face flushed red.

The knife pressed against her skin, the icy touch causing her small face to instantly turn a bruised purple.

She moved her lips, but still couldn't make a sound.

She widened her eyes in despair, almost wetting herself again in fear.

Pennie really didn't want her eyeballs to be gouged out, to lose a pinky finger, or to face the possibility of such things. But if her eyeballs were gouged out, her life would truly be ruined!

"No!"

The moment her skin was cut, Pennie finally let out a heart-wrenching scream. She was so scared that she tightly closed her eyes, thinking that her eyeballs were destined to be gouged out today. However, at the critical moment, the knife in the bodyguard's hand unexpectedly clattered to the ground.

"Penny!"

Her body was tightly embraced by a strong hold, listening to this voice she had longed for day and night, Pennie's tears silently fell.

"Ink..."

Pennie's voice sounded as wronged as it could be. She pressed her little head tightly against Kemp's chest, her body trembling as she cried.

"Penny, I'm sorry, I was late! Don't worry, I won't let anyone bully you again!"

After soothing Pennie, Kemp slowly lifted his face, his eyes piercing Zackary like a knife.

"Mr. Zackary, who allowed you to bully Penny like this!"

"What, I need to report to you, Mr. Kemp, when I discipline a woman?" Zackary asked, his expression unflappable as he spoke coolly.

"Penny was my wife! Bullying her was bullying me, Kemp!"

Even though Pennie had done many things that truly disappointed Kemp, she was, after all, the girl he loved, the girl who had accompanied him through the most difficult times.

Suddenly seeing her lying on the ground covered in blood, seeing the mangled flesh at the broken tip of her little finger, he still couldn't bear others treating her so violently!

"Penelope was my woman! She was the biological mother of my child!"

Zackary's face was as dark as water, an invisible chill enveloping him, causing the surrounding temperature to drop several degrees in an instant.

"You and Pennie bullied Penelope, and that's the same as bullying me, Zackary! Today, even if Pennie dies, she deserves it!"

Penelope! It was Penelope again!

Kemp trembled with rage, but he found that what he hated most was not Zackary helping Penelope discipline Pennie, but the fact that Penelope's child was actually Zackary's!

She actually had a child for Zackary!

She was willing to bear children for Zackary, she was willing to give herself to Lyman, she was willing to be manipulated by Everett, but she kept Kemp at a thousand miles distance. If he touched her, she threatened to kill herself. Was he really so repugnant to her?!

"Kemp, it hurts... I'm in so much pain..."

Pennie's cry of pain brought Kemp back to his senses. He gave Zackary an inscrutable look, not bothering to continue their confrontation. Holding Pennie, he turned and quickly walked towards the yard.

"Ink, my pinky finger..."

Upon hearing Pennie's voice, Kemp realized that there was a severed pinky in the corner of the yard.

Staring fixedly at the bloody severed finger, Kemp's eyes instantly turned a stark red.

The girl who had been inseparable from him in life and death, was tortured to this extent, all thanks to Penelope!

With red-rimmed eyes, Kemp picked up the severed pinky. Without any further hesitation, he quickly got into his parked car, holding Pennie.

As soon as he got on the car, the low sobbing sound of Pennie reached his ears.

"Kemp, it hurts, it hurts so much..."

"I made a mistake in the past, but I've already apologized to Penelope, and I've been trying to make amends. Why does she still let Mr. Zackary treat me like this?"

"Kemp, I've become crippled. The injuries on my body, they might never heal. Does Penelope have to ruin me to be happy?"

Pennie gritted her teeth in pain and gasped for air, wishing she could just faint on the spot to escape this unbearable agony. But when Kemp came over, her previously muddled consciousness inexplicably cleared up a bit. She couldn't even faint, and had to endure the heart-wrenching pain.

Kemp also thought that Penelope was too much, even though Pennie had framed her before, but those things, after all, had already passed.

Moreover, Pennie had never thought about wanting her eyes.

But today, Penelope really had Zackary gouge out Pennie's eyeballs!

If he had come a few minutes later, the consequences would have been unthinkable!

Thinking of Penelope's ruthlessness towards Pennie, thinking of her disdain for him, Kemp was suddenly filled with overwhelming hatred.

"Penny, I won't let you suffer in vain! One day, I will make Penelope pay with her life!"

Having received Kemp's promise, Pennie instantly felt less pain in her body.

Kemp wouldn't lie to her. Since he could utter such words, he would certainly seize the opportunity to erase Penelope from this world!

She said, "Let's wait and see!"
