Chapter 81 He couldn't find Penelope's severed finger!

Her severed finger, which had already scabbed over, was injured again today when he dragged her by car, causing her hand to scrape against the ground.

The place where her finger was severed was scratched again by the rough ground, leaving it bloody and mangled.

That bloody severed finger stabbed at Kemp's eyes, causing a piercing pain. Eventually, the pain seeped deep into his heart, making him unable to stand, almost unable to breathe.

Penelope was innocent.

But he personally turned the innocent Penelope into a lifelong disability.

And there was today...

Kemp clutched his chest tightly, where it felt as if countless knives were slowly tearing his heart apart. Today, if it hadn't been for Lyman's timely arrival, Penelope would have become a soul under his car.

Even if she hadn't died at his hands today, the wounds on her body were more than any ordinary person could bear.

With a fierce kick, he sent Austin, who was kneeling in front of him, flying. Kemp, like a madman, rushed towards the dungeon behind the villa.

His special assistant, Jaxson, seeing his abnormal mood, feared that he might get into trouble, and quickly followed him.

Kemp had already forgotten to open the dungeon door. He kicked the wooden door open with a force and rushed in like a gust of wind.

His eyes were bloodshot as he ceaselessly searched for something on the dungeon floor.

Jaxson felt that he should help his benefactors. He stepped forward, trembling with fear, and asked, "Mr. Hunter, what are you looking for?"

"Pinky! Penelope's pinky!"

Kemp pushed aside the clutter on the ground. He remembered that day, it was here that he had someone chop off Penelope's little finger. He also remembered that the severed finger had fallen next to that piece of wood. However, while the piece of wood remained untouched in its place, he could not find Penelope's severed finger.

Jaxson, "..."

He truly thought his eldest had gone mad. So many days had already passed since that incident. Even if they found Penelope's severed finger, it was far too late to reattach it. What was the point anymore!

But Jaxson didn't dare to say these words. He could only carefully observe Kemp's expression while pretending to help him look for the severed finger.

However, two grown men, lying on the ground, searched for a long time, but didn't find any severed fingers.

The dried blood was still on the ground, but the severed finger, it was as if it had vanished into thin air, leaving no trace at all.

"Mr. Hunter, that severed finger, it seems... it seems to be gone." After a long, long time, Jaxson stuttered out.

"Gone?!" Kemp's expression was eerily calm in that moment, yet unspeakably terrifying, "What do you mean it's gone?!"

After hearing Kemp's words, Jaxson didn't dare to speak recklessly anymore. He hastily gathered his subordinates to search for the whereabouts of Penelope's severed finger.

Although he hadn't been with Kemp for a long time, he had a general understanding of his character. If Kemp wanted that severed finger, even if the finger had already rotted, they had to find it today!

"I...I think I know where that severed finger went!" One of the bodyguards suddenly raised his hand, stuttering as he spoke.

"Speak!" Kemp stood up, barking sharply.

After being scolded by Kemp, the bodyguard trembled even more. His teeth chattered before he finally spoke in a low voice, "I... I fed the dog..."

"What did you say?!" Kemp stepped forward, abruptly grabbing the bodyguard's collar, "Say it to me again!"

"I... I..."

Meeting Kemp's gloomy eyes, the bodyguard hurriedly lowered his head, too scared to even stutter, "I saw Ms. Rogers give the severed finger to Ms. Hilliard with my own eyes, and Ms. Hilliard fed it to the dog."

"Yes, it was our big German Shepherd in the backyard!"

Kemp violently shook off the bodyguard. He might not have felt it himself, but Jaxson, standing next to him, clearly saw something shatter in his eyes.

Jaxson felt a pang of sorrow. Why did he feel that the boss's heart was broken?!

Jaxson hurriedly tried to catch up with Kemp, but Kemp's speed was simply too fast. By the time he caught up, Kemp had already gotten into his car. The black Lamborghini sped off like a bolt of lightning, disappearing without a trace in an instant.

Kemp drove to the hospital where Pennie was.

On the way, he had received a call from Pennie.

Pennie said that she had just come out of the emergency room, she had been seriously injured, and now, she was really in a lot of pain.

If it had been in the past, hearing Pennie say such words, Kemp would have felt very heartbroken, but now, he only felt it was ironic.

Pennie directed and acted in a play by herself, so by shouting out in pain, Penelope wouldn't feel pain anymore?!

Penelope lost a finger, becoming disabled for life. Today, she left with scars all over her body. Was she not in pain?!

Kemp had never dared to imagine that one day, he would actually feel disgust for the girl he loved!

When Kemp arrived at the hospital, Pennie had already been taken to the VIP ward. She was wrapped in quite a few bandages, looking pitiful and frail.

Seeing Kemp come in, Pennie looked increasingly frail and delicate. She spoke in a soft, weak voice, "Kemp..."

Before the words I wanted to say could even leave my mouth, large tears had already started rolling down.

"Kemp, I was so upset..."

Contrary to her expectations, she was tightly enveloped in a warm embrace. Pennie involuntarily lifted her face and glanced at Kemp.

In the past, she could always see deep affection and indulgence in his eyes, but this time, she only saw indifference.

Pennie was shocked, her face showing even more grievance. "Kemp, my car accident, it wasn't an accident at all! I tried to avoid it, but the van driver still deliberately hit me! Kemp, he wanted me dead!"

"Kemp, did you see that van driver? If you did, could you ask him for me, I have no grudge against him, why does he insist on putting me in danger!"

"Pennie, I saw him."

Pennie?!

Pennie's heart skipped a beat. He used to call her Penny with affection, why would he suddenly call her by her full name today?

What on earth happened that she didn't know about?!

"Kemp, what's wrong with you? Why are you acting so strange today?" Pennie's eyes were as red as a little rabbit's. "Kemp, it seems like you don't care about me at all, don't you like me anymore?"

"Penny, you're overthinking," Kemp finally reverted to the nickname, "Penny, the driver said that he hit you on purpose."

"He was manipulated by others, deliberately putting you in mortal danger!"

Pennie opened her mouth hesitantly, "Did he mention who wants to put me in a deadly situation?"

"He said, it's Penelope." There was not a trace of expression on Kemp's face, making it impossible to guess what he was thinking.

"Really?" Pennie's heart leapt with joy, the smile on her face almost uncontrollable. Realizing her lapse, she quickly put on a facade of immense sorrow. "Why is it Penelope again! I've always considered Penelope as my best friend, why does she keep hurting me like this! Kemp, what did I do wrong?"

Kemp didn't respond to Pennie's words, instead he spoke with a blank expression, "Penny, did you really consider Penelope as your best friend?!"
