Chapter 1929


    That night, Penny and Ava arrived at Aegean Hotel by car.


    They found Webb sitting in the restaurant by himself, enjoying a piece of steak in solitude.


    The musicians on stage yed a beautiful melody as he ate, while waiters and waitresses scurried around to meet his every need. Suitd bodyguards stood guard at every corner of the restaurant.


    When Webb caught sight of Penny and Ava, a slight smirk appeared on his face. He stared at her yfully as he said, "Wee, Ms. Smith. I didn''t expect you toe."


    He gestured to a waiter beside him, who pulled out a chair for Penny.Content ? copyrighted by N?velDrama.Org.


    However, Penny simply red at him coldly. "I''m here to find out what happened to my husband, not to have dinner with you. Just tell me what you know about him and I''ll take my leave."


    Webb''s grin did not waver a single bit. "Why don''t you take a seat? We have all the time in the world anyway."


    He gestured to the steak in front of him. "Besides, I''m having dinner now. It''ll be pretty rude of you to disturb me while I''m having a meal."


    Penny sighed in exasperation and sat down. "Fine. I''ll wait for you to finish eating."


    Webb smirked subtly and picked up the bottle of high-ss wine on the table to pour a ss for Penny. "Have a drink, Ms. Smith." "I don''t drink wine," Penny snapped.


    Webb shrugged and downed the ss of wine himself. "Suit yourself."


    For the next hour, Penny waited patiently for Webb to finish his meal, but Webb seemed to have purposely slowed down after her arrival.


    Just before Penny was going to get up and leave in frustration, Webb finally put down his cutlery and wiped his mouth clean.


    "Are you done? Can we talk now?" she asked impatiently.


    Webb smirked. "Sure, but not here. Shall we go back to my Presidential Suite?"


    What? His Presidential Suite? No way!


    "I''m not going there," Penny said warily.


    Webb raised an eyebrow. "You don''t have toe if you''re not interested to find out what happened to your husband on the battlefield." Something happened to him on the battlefield?


    Penny''s face turned pale in an instant. "What happened? Just tell me!"


    Webb chuckled. "Come to my Presidential Suite if you want to know more."


    Before Penny could say another


    word, he dabbed at the corners oret


    his mouth with a white handkerchief and stood up to take his leave with his bodyguards.


    Penny gritted her teeth. "Let''s go, Ava."


    "Yes, Mrs. Cross!"


    Back at the Presidential Suite, Webb lounged on the leather sofa and lit a cigar as his bodyguards lined up behind him.


    He snickered as he watched Penny walk in with Ava trailing behind her. "Haha, looks like you docare about your husband."


    "Enough," Penny growled. "What happened to my husband?"


    Webb nced at her mockingly. "Oh,


    Ms. Smith, I''m sure you''re smarter


    than this. There''s no such thing free lunch in this world, and this


    won''t be an exception. Did


    n


    think


    that just tell you everything I know without getting anything in return?"


    Penny flinched. "How much money do you want?"


    "Oh, how smart," Webb said. "Unfortunately, I don''t need money. I want you!" He gazed at her hungrily with a perverted grin on his face. "My request is simple. I just want to see what that pretty mouth of yours can do in bed. I''ll tell you alkthe bad news in due time."
