Chapter 724


    The bodyguard was startled as he instantly reached out to pull Eugene back to take cover behind him.


    "President Nn, watch out."


    "Crack—" The porcin vasended by their feet at the door and it was shattered into pieces.


    At that point, Eugene''s expression instantly darkened as he shot at the person in the room full of cold


    oppression. "How long are you keeping this up?"


    For a moment there, Penny did not expect Eugene to be the one to enter the room. Stunned, she


    turned around and took a seat on the couch. She did not bother to cast eyes on him, but she stopped


    her tirade.


    He stepped past the broken porcin pieces and entered the room.


    As soon as he walked in, he realized that the room had been turned upside down with the furniture


    scattered around while the items—supposedly seated nicely on the desks and walls—were all lying on


    the ground. It looked as if it had been robbed!


    At that instance, Eugene was about to re up at her again. After all, she was old enough to reflect on


    her actions and repent; instead, she was behaving so abominably! He had initially kept her at home for


    the past two days to calm her down, but looking at how things were right now, she clearly had not done


    any of that. It would take someone with a very hot temper to have caused such havoc.


    He found a slightly tidier spot and took a seat before saying, "You''ve made such a mess of your house.


    Do you not n to stay here any longer?"


    Penny scoffed, "Gosh! Is this my house? I thought that it belonged to you. You have the whole ce


    under control and I can''t even step foot outside while no one is allowed in either!"


    Eugene responded, "I gave instructions for them to keep you at home so that you could at least calm


    yourself down."

    She snorted coldly. "Calm down? How am I supposed to calm down? Would you be able to keep a cool


    head if your parents were taken into custody?"


    As soon as she mentioned that, a thought suddenly dawned upon her and she became enlightened.


    "Come to think of it, you''re actually quite cool-headed. Edward Nn''s your father as well. You''ve


    personally thrown your dad into prison, so I''m sure that no one else would be as level-headed as you.


    You''re way more heartless than a devil!"


    Meanwhile, Eugene remain unaffected by her words as he spoke up calmly, "I pray the day never


    comes for you when your mom was nearly murdered and you have to turn into a heartless wreck."


    Penny angrily retorted, "Your mom was unharmed though, wasn''t she? Do you really have to take such


    drastic measures and go after them so ruthlessly?"


    At that point, Eugene suddenly shot a sharp look at her. "You''ve always been fixated on this, but my


    mom was lucky to keep her dear life! Luck! It was all because of me and Grandpa''s dire efforts to save


    her. It wasn''t because your mother relented and let her off the hook. Penny, I understand how you''re


    feeling right now. You''re feeling upset because of their imprisonment, but if you had to make a choice


    between death or imprisonment, which one would you find more eptable? Huh?"


    Penny looked at him pleadingly. "Can''t you just cast your revenge aside and let them off?"


    Eugene smiled in response. "Why should I forgive them for their misdeeds against me? I have nothing


    to gain from that. Had my mom been the one who stole your dad, used yours of having cheated,


    forced her out of her house without a dime before plotting to run her over, what would you have felt?


    I''m sure that you would be fixated on seeking revenge for the rest of your life. You should be thankful


    that my mom''s still well and alive. Otherwise, your mom would have to watch out for the rest of her life!


    There''s no point to argue who''s the cruel one here. There arews set in this world to protect the


    victims from immoral actions like this. I stay in myne and you should too. Or else, don''t be the one


    whining when I strike back!"


    Eugana raspondad, "I gava instructions for tham to kaap you at homa so that you could atast calm


    yoursalf down."


    Sha snortad coldly. "Calm down? How am I supposad to calm down? Would you ba a to kaap a cool


    haad if your parants wara takan into custody?"


    As soon as sha mantionad that, a thought suddanly dawnad upon har and sha bacama anlightanad.


    "Coma to think of it, you''ra actually quita cool-haadad. Edward Nn''s your fathar as wall. You''va


    parsonally thrown your dad into prison, so I''m sura that no ona alsa would ba asval-haadad as you.


    You''ra way mora haarss than a davil!"


    Maanwh, Eugana ramain unaffactad by har words as ha spoka up calmly, "I pray tha day navar


    comas for you whan your mom was naarly murdarad and you hava to turn into a haarss wrack."


    Panny angrily ratortad, "Your mom was unharmad though, wasn''t sha? Do you raally hava to taka such


    drastic maasuras and go aftar tham so rutssly?"


    At that point, Eugana suddanly shot a sharp look at har. "You''va always baan fixatad on this, but my


    mom was lucky to kaap har daar lifa! Luck! It was all bacausa of ma and Grandpa''s dira afforts to sava


    har. It wasn''t bacausa your mothar rntad andt har off tha hook. Panny, I undarstand how you''ra


    faaling right now. You''ra faaling upsat bacausa of thair imprisonmant, but if you had to maka a choica


    batwaan daath or imprisonmant, which ona would you find mora apta? Huh?"


    Panny lookad at him adingly. "Can''t you just cast your ravanga asida andt tham off?"


    Eugana smd in rasponsa. "Why should I forgiva tham for thair misdaads against ma? I hava nothing


    to gain from that. Had my mom baan tha ona who st your dad, usad yours of having chaatad,


    forcad har out of har housa without a dima bafora plotting to run har ovar, what would you hava falt?


    I''m sura that you would ba fixatad on saaking ravanga for tha rast of your lifa. You should ba thankful


    that my mom''s still wall and aliva. Otharwisa, your mom would hava to watch out for tha rast of har lifa!


    Thara''s no point to argua who''s tha crual ona hara. Thara araws sat in this world to protact tha


    victims from immoral actions lika this. I stay in myna and you should too. Or alsa, don''t ba tha ona


    whining whan I strika back!"


    Penny shut her eyes, but that was not enough to keep her tears from streaming down her cheeks.


    "Let her go, and I''ll talk some sense into her. I''ll even convince her to apologize to your mom. Is that not


    enough?"


    In response, Eugene sneered coldly. "I think you''re forgetting something here. We''re all grownups here,


    not some kids who get detention for doing silly mistakes and call it a day. There are serious


    consequences to your actions. Wake up! Do you realize how long my mom has been in a wheelchair?


    Do you know that she was nearly immobile for the rest of her life? Not only did your mom try to harm


    mine, she even tried to murder me, my son, and my girlfriend! I don''t wish to do this at all; at least I


    know she was a good mother to you. I don''t expect you to bear the same hatred that I do, but you


    shouldn''t expect the same forgiveness of yoursing from me. It''s impossible and it''s absolutely


    ridiculous!"
