Capítulo 628: Saving me from me

If there was one thing Hugo would always tell Penny in their previous life, it was for her to take care of herself. He wouldn't say it in a gentle tone; he would say it indifferently as if it were something he would say in passing.

But hearing him say those exact words out of frustration brought guilt into her heart.

'I guess I deserve the scolding,' she thought, sighing. 'Fine, I'll just take it quietly and obediently.'

That was what Penny told herself upon sensing the concern in Hugo's eyes. However, Hugo didn't stop and continued on and on, as if he were rapping. It took her a lot of patience to say, 'Now this scolding is too much!'

"I understand," she murmured, trying her best to sound polite. "I get it now. I was wrong. There are so many things I could've done. This will not happen next time, I promise!"

Hugo narrowed his eyes, assessing the look on her face.
