Meanwhile, Penny, Kylie, and Frida were anxiously waiting for Nathan's return at the lobby of the Hilton, the most famous hotel in Bossania City.
Most of the hotel's guests took notice of the trio as t they went in and out of the hotel.
Although they have different demeanors, the three ladies were equally gorgeous in appearance.
Penny was the most stunning one amongst the three. She had the perfect figure to complement her flawless facial features. Men would easily fall for her given her appearance.
Suddenly, a few men made their way into the hotel. They were equally tall and seemed as though they were part of the military.
On second look, they seemed more like a bunch of delinquents because they lacked the righteous and determined demeanor of a soldier.
The person leading the party was surprised the moment he detected Penny's presence. His eyes gleamed as he greeted playfully, "Hey! You're Penny, right?"
Penny was dumbfounded. It took her quite some time to recognize the man in front of her. "You're Randy?"
The playful man was Randy Fallon, who used to be Penny's neighbor back in the day. The two families had been on good terms, and Penny had always been polite with Randy.
Randy noticed Penny was in designer's clothing from head to toe, complete with high heels and a luxury watch.
It has been a decade since we last met. I can't believe she has turned into such a gorgeous woman! It seems like she's pretty rich as well. Could she be some company CEO?
"Hey, Penny! What are you doing here?” Randy greeted her with a polite smile.
"I'm here with my colleagues for a company trip. What about you? Why are you here?" Penny asked in return.
"I'm here with a few of my subordinates for work. I'm currently a senior officer of the North Army and we're here on a mission," Randy replied in an enigmatic manner.
"Wow! That's amazing, Randy! Although it has been a decade since we last met, it seems like you're doing well, huh?" Penny was pleased because she had always been a fan of those affiliated with the military.
Randy was proud of himself as well the moment he saw the adoration Penny had on her face. He thought perhaps he could achieve what he had in mind all along.
Nevertheless, he put on a calm front and replied, "It's nothing. After all, I'm just a colonel."
"Are you serious? It's quite impressive to reach the rank of a colonel by the age of thirty!" Penny asserted in a serious manner.
The moment she finished her sentence, she was reminded of her husband because Nathan had reached the rank of a general before he even turned thirty.
