Second Chance at Love: From Divorcee to the Billionaire's Bride Chapter 276
"You seem to have a great understanding of your pet dog's thoughts, huh?”Luke's words seemed to have a deeper meaning, but upon careful consideration, I couldn't discern any hidden message.Goofy had curled up into a ball, his whole body radiating rejection towards my Samoyed. I picked up my energetic Samoyed, ready to head home."Marianne takes care of Goofy during the day. You can bring your dog over. Maybe they will become more comfortable with each other over time.""My Samoyed is too energetic. I'm worried it might frighten Goofy."Goofy was far from what I imagined a typical Husky to be. I had concerns that my Samoyed might terrify him."He needs to gather his courage."Upon hearing this, I glanced at my excited Samoyed, whining to get closer to Goofy, and pondered for a moment. "Then I'll trouble Marianne. I'll prepare everything early tomorrow and bring him to your place."Luke murmured in agreement, and we engaged in a conversation about our experiences raising dogs.

Penelope possesses a gentle heart, even in the face of mistreatment from her parents. She never complains and always strives to maintain a positive outlook. How dare Joey abuse her position as a boss to tarnish Penelope's reputation?!My anger surged, and I adopted a firm attitude."No wonder Ms. Middleton sided with Penelope, you two are related. I wonder which lawyer you plan to hire so I can prepare accordingly," Joey said, concluding her call. Her beautiful face displayed clear displeasure upon seeing me, but it vanished instantly when she noticed Luke.Her gaze shifted to Luke, and she was all smiles. "Lu, why are you at the police station?"Joey's familiar nickname for Luke extinguished the anger in my mind.Joey had been Luke's longtime crush. If I got into a conflict with her, I was guaranteed to lose. A lump formed in my throat, making it difficult to breathe.I had no interest in what Luke and Joey were discussing. I asked the police once again to see Penelope.The off

I buckled my seatbelt and started the car. "Mr. Walker, it's getting late. Shouldn't you send Ms. Parker home?""Stephen is on his way here."Stephen, Joey, Luke - could they be in one of those cliché drama situations where he likes her, but she likes someone else? A complicated love triangle?Being liked by both Stephen and Luke, two top-tier eligible bachelors, Joey seemed like the lead in a romantic movie.Although this leading lady's personality was... questionable.Not only did Luke need to get his eyes checked, but Stephen did too!"Jen, my rented apartment is on Middle Road. You can drop me off at the next intersection," Penelope said."You're staying with me tonight.""Jen, things have completely soured between me and Joey. She has my parents' contact information. If they find out I'm staying with you, they'll think we're close. If they can't find me, they'll keep bothering you. I've already caused you so much trouble. I can't let you worry about me anymore," Penelope s

My words seemed to evoke emotions in Penelope, and tears began to stream down her face."Jen, I'm so grateful that you're here," Penelope said softly through her sobs."I feel the same way about you!" I replied.Over the years, Penelope had moved from one city to another, without any friends or family. The constant loneliness had taken its toll on her, making life almost unbearable.I tried to comfort her, saying, "Everyone faces setbacks and hardships. Once we overcome these challenges, we'll realize that the troubles of the past weren't as significant as they seemed!""I often try to encourage myself in the same way, but sometimes, it's hard not to feel down and see life as meaningless," she admitted."How can life be meaningless? The world is so full of color; we just need to learn to appreciate it," I said, speaking not only to Penelope but also to myself."You're right, Jen. For a while, I was obsessed with travel bloggers. They visit breathtaking places all over the world.

"At first, I didn't know how he was connected to Joey. He's a bit intellectually slow, but after getting to know me, he could sense my moods. Today, when he saw me, he could tell I was feeling down, so he quietly followed me without disturbing me.""He saw someone bullying me at the bar and intervened. He ended up getting beaten, and we were taken to the police station. It wasn't until the police contacted Joey that I realized they were siblings.""Is that why Joey has been targeting you all along?" I asked. It would make sense if that were the case."I'm not sure," Penelope shook her head slightly. "He's very different from her.”"He's like a child, innocent and kind without understanding social norms. He's the complete opposite of Joey," I remarked. Despite his low IQ, he stood up for Penelope when she was being bullied, which already put him above many men!"Was he badly hurt?" I asked."I'm not sure. When he was being beaten, I tried to intervene, but he pushed me against the

That night, Penelope and I talked for hoursand eventually fell asleep around 3 AM.When I woke up the next morning, the smell of food filled the air. Rubbing my slightly red eyes from lack of sleep, I got out of bed.Penelope had tidied up the living room and left a note for me:"Jen, I've left. I made you breakfast, it's in the thermal box. Don't forget to eat!"How considerate of her!After freshening up, I called Marianne to let her know that I wouldn't be joining her for breakfast. She didn't ask any questions. I hung up, had breakfast, and headed to work.Just as I was leaving the yard, I saw Luke appear in my view. He stopped when he noticed me.I rolled down the car window. "Your driver didn't come?""He's not finished with his business.""Where's your car?""It's at the dealership for maintenance. The driver forgot to mention it."Luke's driver had been with him for years and was usually reliable. There must have been an emergency for him to leave things unattended.

I woke up late this morning and forgot to put on the band-aids. A painful mistake!I had a pair of flat shoes in my car for driving. I tried to put my foot back in the shoe and stand up, but the pain forced me to sit back down.The pain was unbearable!With my foot in this condition, every step in high heels would be torture.I checked the time, grimacing. It was 8:30 PM, and many people in the building were still working. Walking out barefoot would reflect poorly on JL Capital's image.Just as I was wondering what to do, there was a knock on the executive office door.I quickly composed myself and sat up straight. "Come in."Luke opened the office door. "Ready to go home?""Yes, Mr. Walker."Out of habit, I stood up to greet my boss, but the pain in my foot made me cry out. I quickly grabbed the desk to steady myself."Are you hurt?" Luke crossed the room in two quick strides, suddenly at my side."No, I'm fine." I sat back down, trying to hide my foot under the desk.My f

"Mr. Walker..." Luke interrupted me, opening the iodine and grabbing a cotton swab. "It's getting late. The sooner we apply the medicine, the sooner we can go home." Luke just wanted to save time and get home quickly."You're giving me a ride home, and I'm helping with your medicine. We're helping each other, so there's no need to be shy.""I just don't want to trouble you."I wasn't being shy; I was just trying to maintain an appropriate distance!Despite my reluctance, Luke insisted, and I turned the chair. He gently grasped my ankle.His palm was warm, and the area he touched started to heat up. The warmth slowly traveled up my leg and settled on my face.I briefly glanced at him before quickly looking back down at his hand on my ankle.Luke had long, elegant fingers with defined knuckles. Together with my ankle, it resembled a close-up shot from a romantic drama.Romantic leads...If life were a drama, Luke would be the male lead, and Joey the female lead!At best, I'
