Penelope snorted and gave the man another kick.
He winced in pain. "Do... do you have any idea who I am? How dare you hit me..."
"I don't care who you are!"
"My name is Harry! Go ask around! No one in Orenth dares to disrespect me!"
Penelope planted her foot on the man's stomach. "Are you as powerful as the Bishop Group?"
"The Bishop Group is nothing!"
"My boss is Rebecca!"
"That bitch Rebecca! How dare she send someone like you... ahh! I'm not finished with her!"
"Who do you think you are? The Bishop Group isn't afraid of you! Trust me, my boss isn't afraid of you."
Hearing the commotion, Rebecca came out of her room and saw the scene unfolding: her major client, bruised and beaten, being told this was all her doing.
Her mind went blank. She rushed forward.
"Penelope, what have you done?"
Penelope clapped the dust from her hands and took two steps back, feigning surprise. "Didn't you tell me to make sure Mr. Bright had a good time drinking? I was worried he wouldn't be satisfied, so I poured a couple of bottles down his throat."
After her initial shock, Rebecca hurried to help Harry up.
But when he saw her, he became even more enraged and slapped her across the face.
"Bitch! You just wait! I'm not letting you get away with this!"
The slap was fueled by all his fury, and it sent Rebecca sprawling to the floor. Dazed and dizzy, she watched as Harry propped himself up against the wall, gasping for breath.
"You two bitches! Neither of you is leaving here tonight! Go! Go get more men!"
"Oh, you have more men?" Penelope's eyes darted around. "In that case, I won't stick around. Time to go!"
With that, Penelope took off down the hall.
