After a few seconds of silence, Penny said softly, "Actually, it was my father who found
out about your whereabouts and deliberately asked me to come at this time. The
purpose was to create an opportunity for me to spend more time with you. they said that
it is easier for two people to get attached when we meet alone in a foreign country."
After saying these words, Penny bit her lower lip with a face of tension and unease.
"Creating those scandals before, I have not pursued them…" Daemon only said half of
his words, but the meaning was already clear.
"I know this will be very annoying to you, but father and Uncle Agaru insist on doing so,
and I am helpless. Besides, it's better for me to cooperate and let them die sooner than
later."
Penny's tone was somewhat helpless, and after a pause, she added, "I grew up with
you. I know your character. If you are determined what, no one can change your mind.
So I didn't even think that you would change your mind and like me. I just wanted to
stand behind you and be there whenever you needed me."
These words were very touching and sincere.
Daemon couldn't even find a reason to scold her.
In fact, although they had met at the airport. They had been busy with their own
business these days, and she hadn't interfered with him.
And it was also Daemon's intention to come to Summerbank in such a high profile this
time.
Daemon had instructed the three families to assign a representative to come over and
make a high-profile appearance in the media. In order to let the people behind the priest
know that he had decided to grow this market!
However, he did not expect that the Three Great Families would actually send Penny.
Of course, now that Penny had taken over the position of Gerard, it made sense for her
to come.
Only so this added to the scandal and angered that Derila's little ancestor!
Just now she was on the phone like a furious mastiff.
Just as he was about to explain, the killer rushed over, he had no choice but to hang up
the phone first and deal with the killer.
There were many people on the other side at that time, and he was left alone, with no
weapons on him, hiding in the shadows with Penny, and Derila's calls came one
after another, exposing his whereabouts.
And he couldn't turn off his phone because he had to take Harrison's call at any time, so he
had to stop her call first.
At this moment, that ancestor was probably fuming at home. But that couldn't be
helped. He just had to take care of the matter at hand first before explaining to her
slowly.
"It's lucky you were here tonight, otherwise I would have made a fool of myself." Penny
tried to break the stiff atmosphere.
Tonight Penny had gone to a party, been molested by some wealthy businessmen, and
had a stack of champagne knocked over her. Her dress was all wet and the glass
crumbs had cut her feet.
When she was at a loss for what to do, Daemon appeared.
Daemon took Penny to the lounge to change and clean her wounds.
Penny was very touched by his poise and warmth of care.
"You're welcome, it's a hand up." Daemon said indifferently, "Even if it was an ordinary
friend, I would still help. Not to mention that you represent Lierger Corporation, making
a fool of you is making a fool of Lierger Corporation."
These words were spoken in a cold and distant manner, causing Penny to lose a little.
But she didn't dare to say more, and could only say softly, "Yes, I understood."
"I went to the banquet, and it was also arranged in advance." Daemon explained again,
"It wasn't a special trip to help you!"
"Mm, I know." Penny humbly bowed her head.
"It's dangerous here. There are hordes of killers tracking me down every day, and all
sorts of local wealthy merchants making things difficult for Lierger Corporation, you
shouldn't have come!"
Daemon had originally wanted Holliga to come, firstly to declare Lierger Corporation's
position to the gang behind the priest, and secondly to frustrate him.
But Holliga was very cunning, not only did he find an excuse to get out of it, but he also
managed to instigate Gerard to let Penny come.
Gerard was so eager to win that he only wanted his daughter to climb up to Daemon
sooner, but he didn't realize that he had fallen for Holliga's plan.
