Chapter 1835: Where’s Atlas?
With Nathalie’s aircraft blowing up in the sky like fireworks, everyone who witnessed it felt only two things. Those on her side felt their morale dragged to the depths of hell, while those on the opposing side’s morale hit an all-time high.
Nathalie’s remaining forces still struggled, but with their morale declining, they were easily subdued.
On top of that, Anteca’s Preside Elite Squad and some members of the Shadow Order arrived just in time to extinguish the fire that had been raging in the mansion. After the long struggle, Nathalie’s men eventually gave in, raising the white flag.
Mark and Angel joined everyone again for the cleanup, ceasing fire as much as possible. After all, many had already spilled blood and laid down their lives in this war. There was no point in continuing what was already won.
With that, all the surviving men retrieved the bodies of their fallen comrades. Those injured were treated immediately. As for the remaining people from Nathalie’s forces scattered on the island, the Shadow Order volunteered to seize them all.
As for Penny, Zoren, Charles, and Slater, they remained on the rooftop and let others take charge.
They just sat there in silence, at least for Charles and Slater. Penny and Zoren just looked at each other, giggling and smiling. The couple was acting as if they hadn’t just survived something so dangerous.
"I know it’s a good thing, but can you please stop that?" Slater frowned, his eyes a bit swollen after crying to his father with Penny as if they were competing who could bawl their eyes out more. "It’s very annoying, you know?"
Penny clicked her tongue and then hooked her arms around her husband. "Why? Jealous you don’t have a babe?"
"You—"
"Just let them be," Charles chimed in, his voice a bit exhausted. "If you’re jealous, then just fix your character and find a woman like your sister."
Slater scoffed. "Dad, if I am going to date or even marry—which I know is impossible, because no one deserves me—I’ll definitely choose someone that’s not anything close to Penny."
