PAMPERED BY MY THREE BROTHERS: THE RETURN OF THE NEGLECTED HEIRESS Chapter 613: I hit where it hurts

"What the...?" Aiden was montarily flabbergasted when he saw that Lily had escaped. He looked at the hired n with a disgusted expression, sneering. "What the hell is wrong with you?! Get her!"

The hired n looked back at the grumpy young master before shifting their eyes to Penny. One of them—the one Lily bit—took a step forward, only to stop when Penny extended her arm to the side.

"Take another step, and don’t bla for what’s going to happen to you." Penny’s voice was calm, but it carried a weight that even n like them wouldn’t ignore.

The man stepped back, assessing the look in Penny’s eyes. He then exchanged a aningful glance with the other man. Even without words, they intuitively understood what it ant.

This woman was trouble. It was better to be careful around her.

As for Aiden, he found their hesitation odd and disappointing. "What are you doing? I said, get her! Why are you stopping just because a woman—" The rest of his words caught in his throat, almost choking him as he felt sothing sharp graze his cheek.

Pang!

Behind him were the shattered pieces of the wine glass Penny had been holding, hitting the table where they broke apart. Aiden’s eyes slowly widened as he gasped, his complexion pale as his world seed to move in slow motion.

It was strange that he hadn’t seen the glass fly in his direction, but at the sa ti, he felt the sharp edge of the broken glass almost hit him straight in the eye. The only question now was: did she miss? Or was it on purpose?

The answer was obvious to so people.

It was on purpose.

"You," Penny called, her eyelids drooping. "You better run away, because after them, you’re next."

Aiden almost squealed in horror as his entire body shuddered at the coldness of her voice. Her eyes, however, were just as fiery as the land of the damned.

"What—who do you think you are, huh?!" Despite his sudden fright at Penny’s threats, Aiden still took the high road and pointed at her. In his mind, Penny was "just" a woman. What could she do against the n he hired when they were twice their size?

Penny sneered, shaking her head as she saw how much of a loser this guy was. She then snapped her gaze to the n, and before they could focus on her, she took a step back, using it to gain montum as she pushed herself forward, doing a forward flip.

In the blink of an eye, her heel struck the man’s jaw, taking him down in one blow while she landed gracefully on her feet.

THUD!

"..."

For a mont, the club, which had been filled with loud music and a cheerful atmosphere, fell into a pin-drop silence. Even those on the other side, who weren’t curious enough to see the commotion near the bar, paused.

Everything stopped—even the music—as everyone rose from their seats and stretched their necks to see what was going on. anwhile, those already in the area stared at Penny, stunned. Their dilated eyes fell on the man on the floor, their jaws quickly joining the unconscious hoodlum.

"What the hell just happened?" Soone in the crowd blurted out under his breath, his wide eyes shaking. "How did he... no, how did she take him down just like that?"

"Oh my god... my friends should see this," another person in the crowd pulled out his phone to record the situation.

"Hey! Can you pause that so we can see what just happened?" A young man turned to his friend, who had been recording since the beginning. But the friend was so stunned he ignored him, keeping his eyes on Penny and the remaining bodyguard whom Lily had bitten earlier.

Slowly, the crowd’s hushed comnts and gossip filled the club until they beca even louder than the music. anwhile, the bodyguard who had dragged Lily gazed down at his colleague, shocked at the sudden turn of events.

"What the—hah! That guy is all about size, but he’s got no substance! He’s like a scarecrow!" Aiden blurted out mindlessly, trying to cope with the seed of fear Penny’s action had planted. "Did you guys scam ??!"

Aiden looked around in panic, catching so of the n he had hired. ’Did they actually scam ?’ he wondered to himself. ’I know they’re hoodlums, failing in the shark loan business, but I didn’t know they were this pathetic!’

Aiden clenched his teeth in irritation, thinking that the people he hired were losers. He shouldn’t have saved money and looked for cheap services. His initial plan was to take Lily so he could talk to her. It wasn’t like he planned to abduct her; he hired them just to help him... scare her a bit.

’Damn it!’ Aiden anxiously ground his teeth, glaring daggers at the n he hired. "What are you still doing, idling like losers?! I don’t care if you have to hit her to get past her! She’s in the way, and that’s her fault."

Penny couldn’t help but smirk, not needing to observe Aiden to know how anxious he was. She also didn’t need to use many brain cells to figure out that these n, though dressed as bodyguards, weren’t professionally trained.

"Goodness." She clicked her tongue, shaking her head and sneering at Aiden. "Lily is right. The only wrong path she took is yours. I thought she was blind, but I didn’t realize she also seed to have lost her other senses. How could she not sll the rotting trash on the side of the path decorated as flowers?"

Penny chuckled as Aiden’s face turned red, casting a look at the bodyguard—the one Lily had bitten earlier. "If I were you, I’d take a step back. If you decide to fight , you’d end up just like him. I’m sure you saw I don’t just hit people; I hit them where it hurts the most, and they end up passing out in an instant."
