last update Last Updated: 2024-11-26 22:26:09
Penny was eating lunch with her brother, Storm, at His Love Hotel. She flashed him a dazzling smile and said, “When I woke up this morning, my phone was flooded with Bella’s honeymoon photos.”

Storm looked at her puzzled and asked, “Why now? Didn’t they come back from the honeymoon a month ago?” Penny nodded her head and replied, “She was being Bella. She was boasting that she got married before me.”

Storm smiled faintly and said, “I hope she will be able to capture Jacques’ heart since it is a marriage of convenience. I heard that he was keeping the mistress outside.”

Penny was dumbfounded and asked, “What?” How could my parents allow their precious daughter to marry someone who is keeping a mistress outside?”

Storm looked at his sister smiling faintly and replied, “Jacques has been with this girl for years and it was not a secret. It would be a lie to say that your father was not aware of this matter but he turned a blind eye. Nowadays, people put interest before their family.”
