Penny had no idea what had happened or why Osvaldo had acted that way. He had called her mine just now and then all of a sudden he turned violent.
What a joke," Ariana said, her words dripping sugar but soaked in venom. "Given one little task and you already failed? And now you want to act pitiful?"
She circled her sister like a vulture around a carcass, ready to dig in.
She was more than ready to mock her sister. At last, she has been able to prove Penny isn’t who the Adkins think she is.
She can’t tame the madman.
She’s just a loser.
She had no idea why these gullible people thought Penny was anything special.
Ariana had no idea why the Adkin family still harbored such a person as Osvaldo in their estate. He’s dangerous to everyone here. Who knows if one day he wouldn’t sneak up on them and maybe kill them in their sleep?
Penny turned to look at her younger sister. "I had no idea what happened. But it wouldn’t change the fact that I survived the night with him." Penny’s words only angered her younger sister.
You’ve still got that arrogant mouth, even after being humiliated in front of everyone?" she whispered.
She stepped closer, eyes flicking to the bruise on Penny’s face. Her lips curled, a laugh almost escaping her.
"Tch, look at you." She clicked her tongue with false sympathy. "So pathetic." She said.
"This happened because your survival had been an accident. Just like your birth." She whispered the last sentence for just Penny to hear but Hughes standing next to her mistress frowned.
It’s not like it’s Penny’s fault she couldn’t tame the madman. There was no school or training given on how to tame their master. She had warned their madam Abby about this being a bad idea but the older woman wouldn’t listen.
"You can’t tame a mad man Penny. There’s no rocket science to it. No one can. It’s not possible, you’re not a doctor and as the doctor that I am, I’m telling you, it’s not possible." Then she turned to Abby.
"Mother, can you see what I was trying to say? If we hadn’t done this test, this beast would have killed or harmed the guests tonight." Ari said.
Penny couldn’t speak because she believed her sister was right. Osvaldo had hurt her today. She was second-guessing her stay with him now.
She knew if she stayed, she would be dead before she got her revenge on Ari and Chris. Maybe she could fight them from afar.
She didn’t understand what had happened today. Last night Osvaldo had spoken to her normally, he even touched her in places he wasn’t supposed to.
Was it all a lie? Or was this his truth?
Was that her dream because the man before them now didn’t seem like he had spoken to her last night?
