Sloan was very worried, but Layla reassured him in turn, "Don't worry, ordinary people
can't hurt her at all."
"But ……"
"I just noticed a beast training ground at the back? Why don't you take me to have a
look."
Layla suddenly changed the subject.
"Okay."
……
Derila drove the car to the agreed location, the North Star Hotel.
The president's wife's car was already parked outside, and her personal bodyguard and
the head of the hotel were waiting at the entrance, and when they saw Derila, they
hurriedly greeted her with a respectful greeting.
Derila got down from the car and hurried into the hotel, "Has Madam arrived?"
"She has arrived long ago."
The bodyguard led Derila inside, while the head of the hotel stayed at the entrance
to wait for her.
Derila found that there was no one at the hotel today, so it was obvious that the
President's wife had chartered it.
When she came to the private room, the president's wife was sipping tea, and when she
saw Derila coming, she quickly greeted him, "Derila, you're here, come and try
this black tea."
Derila did not have the heart to drink the tea at all, but still sat down and waited
patiently.
"Derila, when they come later, I will ask." The president's wife patted Derila's
hand and admonished, "Don't worry, they definitely won't dare to hide anything from
me."
As soon as the words left her mouth, the head of the hotel came in with the people from
the Pakison family.
Derila turned her head to look and couldn't help but freeze.
Gerard was pushing a wheelchair, and sitting on it was actually the seriously injured
Penny.
"Penny?" The president's wife was very shocked, "When did you come back?"
This was also the question Derila wanted to ask.
"I arrived home at around three in the morning."
Her voice was hoarse and low, her head was wrapped in thick gauze, one leg was in a
cast, her arm was bruised, and most crucially, she had been shot in the chest and was
now struggling to sit.
"How did you get like that? What the h-e-l-l happened? Where's Daemon?" Derila
asked after her anxiously.
Penny was very weak and did not speak.
At this point, the president's wife inquired, "Yes, what exactly happened?"
"Sir and I were attacked, he covered my retreat first, in the process of escaping, I was
injured and passed out, I woke up to find myself lying in the hospital, while Sir and his
men all lost contact, I sent people to look for him but never found any news, yesterday I
was attacked again, so I had to go back to Erihal first."
Penny strained to tell what happened.
Hearing these words, Derila's heart was even more disturbed, Daemon and his
men covered for Penny's evacuation, Penny could even be injured so badly, it was
evident that the firepower of the attack was fierce at that time.
"How did this happen? What kind of people attacked you?" The president's wife asked
anxiously.
"It should be the priest and Adams's men." Penny frowned, "Previously, when
Mr.Lierger expanded the Epean market and cut off the priest's money, the priest had
been harbouring a grudge, and the forces behind him wanted to pull in Mr.Lierger, and
Mr.Lierger did not agree. So, that gang let the priest do whatever he wanted, and with
the help of Adams and the Giblo family, their power is getting bigger by the day, plus sir
didn't bring enough people this time, so we've been at a disadvantage."
"Daemon has really been negligent and careless this time." Gerard sighed, "He usually
takes many people with him when he goes out on an errand, why did he only bring a
dozen people this time?"
"It was said that he wanted to leave more men at home to protect the others." Penny
glared at Derila with hatred, "Mr.Lierger acted in haste this time and was
obviously ill-prepared, which is why he was exploited."
"Cut the crap." Derila didn't eat her words, "Where were you attacked? Tell me the
exact address, the specifics."
"I've dealt with Charles on all of them." Penny said coldly, "I care more about
Mr.Lierger's safety than you do!"
