Penny’s guilt for Mark and everyone else was real, so to appease them, she ordered them some food and promised she would behave. But even with that, she knew it wasn’t enough. So, she promised herself that she would treat them well and behave... for now.
"Goodness... I thought that once I came home, I could relax. I didn’t know I would be stricken with guilt." Penny idled on the couch in the master bedroom, hiding there for some relaxation. "Gosh. I didn’t know Renren would send them to a volcano to find a mine."
Laying on her back and gazing at the ceiling, her face soured at the thought. No wonder Zoren told her the damage had been done because his men seemed to have just come back from hell. Fortunately, none of them were harmed — aside from some serious burns.
"I guess... this is how the Pierson mentality is," she mumbled, thinking that these types of punishments seemed normal for them. Even Zoren wouldn’t bat an eye when he was handing out consequences to his people.
"I wonder what he’s actually like to other people?" she whispered, her eyes swirling with curiosity. "I mean, I already saw how filial he was to his grandmother, but what about the rest of the family?"
It wasn’t like Penny wasn’t aware of how the other Pierson family members treated Zoren, as they would even orchestrate an accident to kill him. So, Penny was now curious about what kind of man her husband was to those trashy relatives.
"Well..." Penny shook her head and sat up, smiling. "Doesn’t matter. I’m sure I would fall in love with him all over again if I witnessed that."
With that thought in mind, Penny stood up and was about to do some work when she noticed something from the window. Deep lines appeared between her brows as she approached the window to check what was happening.
The moment Penny stood in front of the window and saw what was going on outside, her face contorted. There, still digging in some parts of the garden, was Nathaniel.
"What in the world...?" she blurted out in disbelief. "Don’t tell me he’s been digging all this time?!"
******
In the garden, Nathaniel was already distraught. Ever since Penny asked him to dig his own grave, Mark might have made him rest in the guest house. However, that wasn’t the end of it. The next day, one of the guards came to him and handed him a shovel, only telling him one sentence:
"Continue digging."
Thus, Nathaniel had no choice but to continue digging. When the first pit was already too deep, he was asked to dig some more in a different area. However, at one point, Nathaniel found Zoren’s men also digging their own graves — Zoren’s order.
But now, all of those guys seemed to have been forgiven, but not Nathaniel.
"Huhuhu!" Nathaniel wept, but he continued as the black panther and the white cat were just around the area, watching him. Peeking at Renny and Chunchun, his face crumpled as another tear brimmed from the corner of his eyes.
’Were they trained to mentally torture people when they couldn’t use their teeth and claws?!’ he hysterically wept in his mind, catching Renny casually clawing the ground as if to show Nathaniel he was helping. Chunchun was the same, stroking the lawn and barely leaving her scratch marks.
If this wasn’t mental torture, then he didn’t know what was. fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm
But then again, a part of him knew why his life was this shitty. He was a shitty person.
