Death sentence

"Kyahh!!!!"

The woman's scream in the crowd echoed across every corner of the nightclub. Even after her scream, her voice continued to resonate as pin-drop silence followed. However, the silence didn't last long because the next moment, everyone saw someone stepping in, followed by the loud noise of a body hitting the table.

For a second, everyone was stunned—flabbergasted.

Their wide eyes shook a little as they stared at Penny, who was still standing in the same spot. Their dilated pupils then moved to the two tall men standing near her, one of whom was bleeding from his hand. After a moment, they all shifted their gaze to the table where the loud noise had come from.

There, buried underneath the tipped table and some bottles and glasses, was Aiden.

"..." Everyone was once again stunned and silent, processing what had happened in the split second they blinked.
