298 Biting is a hassle, just crush them.
“Kyaaaaah!!!!”
The loud, piercing scream of a servant echoed, adding a layer of dread to the still night. Everyone’s hearts leaped out of their chests when they saw Renny leap toward Penny. Their breaths hitched, and their complexions drained of color.
Thud!
Penny fell back with a loud thud, and the big cat hovered over her.
“Ah!” a loud shout escaped Penny, causing everyone to shudder in fear.
Everyone knew about Renny’s viciousness. Even the servants couldn’t come close or step into its vicinity. The black panther was fast, and before anyone knew it, it was already close. People never dared walk in the red areas of the house where this black cat roamed.
But tonight, for some reason, when Butler Hubert came to feed it, Renny suddenly broke out of the greenhouse. It was strange because Renny usually stayed around the greenhouse. The panther also seemed a little too frantic and didn’t listen to Butler Hubert’s orders.
When they saw where Renny was charging, they finally understood.
Renny sensed an outsider.
“Oh, no…” one of the servants felt her knees wobble, subsequently slumping to the ground. She covered her mouth, seeing that Penny wasn’t moving while the big panther seemed to be biting her.
“Miss… Miss… Miss Penelope!” another stuttered and screamed. “Butler Hubert, please help Miss. Penelope!”
Hearing this, Butler Hubert snapped out of his daze. He quickly jumped from his position and pointed at the servant.
“Call for help NOW!” he shouted before running to stop Renny from devouring Penny. As he approached, he heard Zoren’s voice thunder.
“Renny!” Zoren shouted as he marched toward his pet.
Everyone froze for a moment as soon as they heard Zoren shout for the first time since they’d met him. Even Butler Hubert was shocked. Their brief shock, however, didn’t last long when they heard Penny’s voice again.
“Ahh!” Penny shouted once more, prompting Zoren and Butler Hubert to run to her. But then, they heard another sound from her. “Ah…! Hahaha! Titi tickles-! Ouch – haha!”
Huh?
Everyone furrowed their brows in confusion. The servants looked at each other incredulously before setting their eyes on the cat over Penny once more.

Butler Hubert and Zoren slowed down but still approached cautiously. When they were close enough to see Penny, they saw her laughing while Renny was licking her face.
“Ahaha! Wait – stop
–
stop haha!” Penny tilted her head while Renny nudged at her jaw.
Seeing this, Butler Hubert furrowed his brows, Even Zoren, who couldn’t see, could tell that his pet was simply nudging her.
For a moment, only Penny’s laughter resonated in the vast space of the mansion. They could only listen as she laughed so adorably while asking the big, vicious cat to stop tickling her.
“What is going on here?!” Suddenly, Old Mrs. Pierson’s voice rang out. “What oh my goodness! Renny!”
Old Mrs. Pierson’s heart leaped out of her chest the second her eyes fell on Renny hovering over her granddaughter–in–law’s body. She stumbled back, but thankfully, the doctor with her was able to catch her in time.
Upon hearing her call, Renny turned its head in her direction, allowing everyone to see Penny’s face.
Penny also turned her head in Old Mrs. Pierson’s direction and then grinned. “Grandma “The rest of her words rolled back in her throat as Renny resumed licking her, causing her to burst into laughter again.
Again, silence fell upon their shoulders as they listened to her laughter.
WHAT WAS GOING ON HERE?!
The fear and panic everyone initially felt were replaced with shock and confusion.
Renny had a notorious reputation among the Pierson Family and everyone under its employ, Even those who had worked in the residence for a long time couldn’t help but feel wary or scared of the panther. After all, Renny had moved into the Old Residence, because Zoren wanted to keep his grandmother protected at all times.
Things have been very scary since then.
Although Renny had never bitten any of them, he would scratch or growl at them to scare them off. They took that as a warning. Yet, here was this monstrous panther, licking Penny as if it were
a small house cat.
“Oh, my goodness…” Old Mrs. Pierson blurted out under her breath, in disbelief at the sight. “Renny is only like this with Renren. Even I can’t pet him at will,”
The servants who heard the old madam quietly agreed. If the Old Madam couldn’t pet him at will, but they couldn’t even come close!
“Renny,” Butler Hubert called, and not only did he earn a glance from Renny, but there was a low growl as a bonus! His breath hitched, and he took a careful step back, catching the warning from the panther to stay away.
