Chapter 234 Their Son Means Everything to Them
Penny was sensible and nodded with a faint smile. "Alright, see you then."
With that, she immediately turned around and left.
Orlando stood in place and watched her leave for a few seconds before Grace pulled him.
"Orlando, what are you looking at?"
He didn't say anything, but turned around and strutted towards Adding Hotel.
Penny took a taxi to Philip's house and saw a lot of people gathered there, including the neighbors. All of them were judging the Glover family.
The door to the Glover's house was closed. Philip and Haley stayed inside.
Outside the door were a couple of tall and stoutly built men wielding sticks and rebar. It seemed they were the ones Haley said were blocking the door. Penny walked up to one of them. That guy had a steel bar in his hand and was freakishly huge with muscular arms as if he could hit someone at any time.
"Hello, may I ask what the hell Noah did? Why are you gathered at his door?"
When the man saw Penny, he didn't expect such a beautiful woman to suddenly ask him this question, so he began to answer.
"Noah beat my leader's son, who got more than twenty stitches in his head. My leader wants an explanation from the Glover family. But they are all hiding in the house and dare not come out. They are such cowardly wimps. No wonder they have a loser son."
Penny did not think that Philip and Haley were wimps. They just cared too much about their son, and even didn't give a damn about their moral line.
But there was no way around it. It was the custom in Prodale County that sons meant everything and that people brought up sons to support them in their old age.
Even if a son had done a great deal of wrong, he was still his parents' precious child.
People in Prodale County were very tolerant of their sons, and all they asked was that their sons could get married. But they were much harsher on their daughters.
With a composed look on her face, Penny smiled at that hunk.
"Everyone, chill out. I'll call them out and let them explain the whole thing in person, okay? Your leader only sent you to ask for an explanation, but he didn't tell you to hit anyone, did he?"
That guy snorted coldly, "Okay, you get them out first!"
Penny walked to the door and knocked at the door. "Philip, Haley."
Philip and Haley were sitting on the chairs inside. When they heard Penny's voice, they were like grasping at straws.
"Penny!"
Haley rushed to the door but didn't dare open it when she saw that the malicious-looking men were still there.
"Haley, open the door. If there's been a misunderstanding, you should explain it."
Haley glanced at Noah who was smoking in the corner, and sighed. Then she opened the door out of trust for Penny.
"Penny, you're finally back."
Penny was furious when she saw Noah in the corner. "A man has to come forward! You're even hiding behind your parents. What kind of man are you? You dared to hit someone, but why are you afraid to come forward and admit it?"
Noah's hand froze and he flipped out on Penny.
"Fu*k! I did hit him with a brick. That bit*h couple deserves to die. I regret that I didn't thrash him hard enough!"
The few people guarding the door heard this and stepped forward as they wheeled their steel bars.
"Brat, do you wanna die?"
Noah's heart was filled with fear when he saw how fierce those guys were. He was so frightened that he hid behind Penny, holding on to her to keep her in front of him. Penny let out a laugh in anger and opened her mouth.
"Weren't you so arrogant just now? The guy you hit had over 20 stitches, so this is attempted murder, isn't it? If the victim really wants to hold you responsible, you'll go to jail." Hearing about jail time, Philip and Haley were anxious.
"Penny, Noah didn't mean to do that. I want to know if there's any room for negotiation on this. We're willing to pay for it, no matter how much it is."
Philip and Haley were so indulgent to Noah, which led Noah to where he was now.
