Penny regained her senses. She wanted to speak up but was interrupted by Ava.
"Is that the right attitude to invite Mrs. Cross to participate in the investigation? You're clearly treating her like a criminal. How dare you even mention the handcuffs? Come on, I'd love to see who is so brazen to arrest Mrs. Cross."
Enrique was Erwin's most capable subordinate and most trusted righthand man.
He was infamous for his ruthlessness, a person who never made any allowances for anyone for any matter. Apparently, he had lived a poor life after graduating from university. It was his wife who had to take up two jobs to be the breadwinner and support him on his arduous journey of becoming a civil servant.
Fortunately, he got the position he wanted. He served under the leadership of a good superior, and his rank skyrocketed since.
However, after achieving success, he mercilessly divorced his wife and married a beautiful model.
Rumor had it that his ex-wife could not accept the harsh reality and suffered from mental health problems.
Enrique was so terrible to the extent that he never visited her, and neither did he show any care and concern toward their daughter.
He was the epitome of a heartless and unfaithful scum.
With a personality as such, Enrique answered to no one and certainly could not be bothered by Ava's taunt.
His expression turned ashen when he saw Ava blocking him from taking Penny away. He retorted, "Since you're hindering me from enforcing the law, don't blame me for being forceful. Take the both of them away!"
Enrique was well aware that Erwin had declared war against Nathan.
There's no turning back anymore. It's either Chief Cross being taken down completely or Mr. Holmes getting a backlash.
Therefore, he could not back down at this juncture. He hardened his heart and instructed for Penny to be arrested at once. He had to expedite the case, prove her guilty, and then accuse Nathan of it in order to stir up an uproar and make him step down. The subordinates he brought along were all well-trained elites.
At his command, over ten men immediately pounced on Ava and Penny.
Ava was enraged by their actions.
In return, she raised her leg, and with a thrust, her foot dug into one of the men's chests.
Thud!
Her opponent's chest caved as though a big hammer had pounded on it. At that instant, his entire chest and ribs broke. Blood sprayed from his mouth, and his body was thrown backward by the force.
Subsequently, Ava dived into her enemies' territory like a tigress among a flock of sheep and launched relentless attacks against them.
Bam! Bam! Bam!
She skillfully beat all of Enrique's subordinates to a pulp. In the blink of an eye, six or seven men collapsed to the ground.
Seeing so, Enrique frowned. He did not expect Penny to keep such a great fighter as her bodyguard.C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
He roared at his subordinates, "Get the leader first, attack Penny!"
"Yes, Sir!"
The moment he gave his order, two men who were previously besieging Ava hurried over and targeted Penny.
The latter was panic-stricken.
As Ava was being tied down by another seven to eight men, she could not come to Penny's rescue in time.
The two men were like bending hounds lunging at their prey. One of them grabbed Penny's arm as if she was a criminal and clasped it behind her back, wanting to shove her into the car. Content belongs to

The men were both sturdy and rough. They made Penny quicken her steps, causing her to trip over her high heels and fall flat to the ground.
She felt a sharp pang at her ankle
and abdomen. Tears rolled down
profusely from her eyes. She
pleaded pitifully, "I'll go with you.
Please, don't do this. I have a baby in me..." Content belongs to

"Don't pretend! Shut up and hurry up!" the men yelled at her while forcefully dragging her into the car.
Ava was staring daggers at the men with bloodshot eyes. She was dying to drive the nuisances away so that she could rush over to save Penny.
Right at that critical moment, a silhouette moved as swiftly as the wind and arrived at the scene.
Before the two men who were holding Penny captive could realize what had happened, a towering figure with a livid expression was already standing right in front of them.
Their eyes widened when they saw who he was.
The man was none other than Nathan, the Chief Military Governor. After Nathan discovered Erwin's hidden agenda of forming the
Special Investigation Unit, which
was to target Cross Group and Penny, he wanted to remind her to be vigilant about it. Content belongs

When he could not get Penny on the line, he checked with his subordinate, only to find out that she had gone to the hospital due to medical reasons. Nathan was so worried about her that he quickly rushed over to check in on her.
He also wanted to advise Penny on how to protect herself in case things took a very different turn and were not in her favor. Unexpectedly, he was greeted by the dreadful sight the moment he arrived at First Maternal and Infant Health Hospital.
Fuming with fury, he charged forward in god-like speed and drew out his trusty dagger from his sleeves -Snowsphere! Crack! Crack!
The two men who were holding Penny hostage had their arms chopped off by Nathan without them noticing!
"Argh!"
They let out a series of painful shrieks while clutching their severed limbs and collapsed in their own pool of blood, writhing in agony. Enrique, who was standing nearby, grew pale at the gory sight.
