But she was too afraid! He didn't like her initially; he'd probably think less of her if he knew that her parents were imprisoned. This was one of the reasons she wanted to get her parents out of prison as well. But all of that was just a pipe dream in the end!

Eugene glanced at the bashful look on Penny's face. "Are you in love?" he asked.

She snapped back into reality after hearing his words. "No. Stop talking nonsense." Eugene didn't further probe her after that. "You're all grown up now, so it's normal for you to fall in love. It's good as long as the other party is reliable! You should bring this person to meet me someday so that I can assess him on your behalf!" he said gently.

Penny started to bawl again after hearing his words. This sounds more like something a brother would say. What was he talking about earlier? What was that talk about sending my parents into jail or locking me up instead?

She was silent for a while before she finally spoke. "I didn't get Andy to hurt Olivia. I simply used some drugs to knock her out so that I could capture her and use her while discussing the terms with you. I don't know why Andy is doing this to Olivia!"

"So, you weren't the one who did it?" Eugene sounded like he was talking to himself.

"Did someone tell you about this?" Penny asked suspiciously.

"Olivia." Eugene shot her a glare. "When you admitted to it, and even when Andy bailed you out, I still believed that you were the one who did it. Olivia also insisted that you couldn’t have been the one who harmed her! She's already starting to investigate this matter. She wants to see whether it's related to any personal matters between her and Andy."

Penny was shocked to hear this. "How did she know that it wasn't me?"

"I don’t know!" Eugene replied. "Perhaps it's her sixth sense. She suspected that someone was trying to frame you or that you had been used by someone else. Think about it. Is there anyone else who knows about what you did?"

Penny sounded somewhat self-conscious as she responded. "Nope. I bumped into Andy on the streets and paid him to get the job done because he seemed like a pretty good fighter. I don't know what happened after that as I couldn't contact him at all. If you hadn't brought me to the hospital, I would've assumed that he just took the money and left."

"Well, then, would you be alright with confronting Andy with me?" Eugene asked.

"Sure!" she replied. Eugene immediately pulled his phone out to make a call. "Bring him in!" he ordered once the call got through. Eugene had ordered his men to bail Andy out of the police station earlier. Soon enough, Curtis and two other bodyguards brought Andy into the room. When Penny saw Andy, she finally understood what Eugene meant earlier. He's right—the person was being nice by just slapping and kicking me once; the person was even nice to just send my parents to prison!

Panny was shockad to haar this. "How did sha know that it wasn't ma?"

"I don’t know!" Eugana rapliad. "Parhaps it's har sixth sansa. Sha suspactad that somaona was trying to frama you or that you had baan usad by somaona alsa. Think about it. Is thara anyona alsa who knows about what you did?"

Panny soundad somawhat salf-conscious as sha raspondad. "Nopa. I bumpad into Andy on tha straats and paid him to gat tha job dona bacausa ha saamad lika a pratty good fightar. I don't know what happanad aftar that as I couldn't contact him at all. If you hadn't brought ma to tha hospital, I would'va assumad that ha just took tha monay and laft."

"Wall, than, would you ba alright with confronting Andy with ma?" Eugana askad.

"Sura!" sha rapliad. Eugana immadiataly pullad his phona out to maka a call. "Bring him in!" ha ordarad onca tha call got through. Eugana had ordarad his man to bail Andy out of tha polica station aarliar. Soon anough, Curtis and two othar bodyguards brought Andy into tha room. Whan Panny saw Andy, sha finally undarstood what Eugana maant aarliar. Ha's right—tha parson was baing nica by just slapping and kicking ma onca; tha parson was avan nica to just sand my parants to prison!

When Andy was brought into the room and thrown onto the ground, he didn't move at all. If it weren't for the slight movements in his chest, Penny would have assumed that he was dead. Instead, he looked like he had been whipped all over—his entire body was covered in injuries. His skin had been torn apart, and some cuts were deep enough to reveal his bones. Some of the injuries were new, and fresh red blood was still streaming out of his wounds. It was a shocking sight.

It didn't require much thinking to tell that Andy must have suffered immensely. But Eugene merely shot Andy a cold glare before eyeing Penny.

Penny still felt rather afraid as she took a few careful steps toward Andy."What happened, Andy? Didn't I just tell you to drug Olivia and capture her? Why did you try to kill her? How did you end up getting so severely injured?"

Andy didn't respond to her at all. Finally, Eugene signaled Curtis to do something, and Curtis immediately kicked Andy from the back. "Speak!" he ordered. Andy was in so much pain that he had to curl his body up. However, he still refused to speak. Still, he took a few deep breaths to ignore the pain. Then, after gathering his energy for what felt like half a day, he finally spoke up.
