Chapter 150
Penelope suddenly stopped and clenched her fist, prompting Ahwin to glance at her curiously.
"Pepe? What are you thinking about?"
"Nothing. Hmm, let’s just prepare to go out and meet in the lobby...”
At that moment, the butler approached Penelope with a message.
“There’s a communication request from Halo Territory.”
“Halo Territory? Is it the treasurer?”
“Yes, my lady. They wish to speak with you directly.”
Penelope nodded at the butler’s reply.
“I’ll go immediately. Ahwin, we’ll have our date afterward.”
“I’ll come with you. I have a feeling there won’t be a date later.”
“Suit yourself.”
Ahwin held out his hand to Penelope, who instinctively took it. By now, holding Ahwin’s hand had become a natural part of Penelope’s routine. The same couldn’t be said for the butler, who watched them in astonishment.
