Chapter 619: uproot
"Hey! Stop right there!" Aiden howled, his eyes shaking as he watched Penny march in his direction without flinching. "I said stop right there!"
He threw the bottle at her as she got closer. Much to his dismay, Penny simply tilted her head and dodged it.
"Shit!" Aiden panicked even more, turning his head to find anything he could use to protect himself. When his eyes landed on the other table full of drinks, glasses, and even plates, he rushed to it. "I said stop!"
Just as he reached the table and picked up whatever he could, he was about to toss it in her direction to stop her. However, he halted when he saw that Penny had stopped. Slowly, their eyes fell on the hand grabbing her ankle.
It was one of the guys she had taken down earlier.
"What’s wrong with you?" Penny arched a brow, lifting her foot, but the man’s grip didn’t budge.
"Ugh..." the man grunted, placing his other hand on the floor to push himself up. He barely lifted his body when he pulled her ankle down.
"Penny!" Nina gasped, covering her mouth as she watched Penny slide onto the floor.
Penny hit her head against the floor again, wincing as she felt her ears ring with a flat line. However, she didn’t dwell on it when she saw that the man who had pulled her down was getting up on his knees.
"Tch," she hissed, shaking off the striking pain in her head. Penny swiftly rolled on the ground, kicking the man in the knees as soon as he raised his foot with his other knee still on the floor.
