Chapter 1022 Why Would I Break Up With You?

Author: Twin Bridge
The two had just started dating. Plus, aside from their intimate moments in bed before that, they had not really engaged in other activities typical of couples.

Penny was still getting used to the sudden shift in their relationship status.

She had never dated anyone before, always rejecting other men due to that beautiful promise she was previously holding onto.

Then, after marrying Caleb, she lived like a widow for three years while maintaining distance from other men.

Even half an hour before Caleb's arrival, she had been looking up date spots for couples.

Nonetheless, she had been extremely busy lately. Aside from meals, she had no time for activities like watching movies.

Caleb approached her from behind, bending over to embrace her. Seeing her computer screen filled with dense data, he sighed.

"You're really hardworking."

When he praised her like a child, Penny felt a secret sense of shame and an indescribable satisfaction in her heart.

Women would not ask for much. They

    "Penny, when I first slept with you, I thought you had a husband. Am I so naive to think that you and your husband had never had sex? The first time we were together after I returned to the country, I wondered if it was your first time. "You admitted yourself that you were married, so, of course, I assumed you had been with your husband many times. But that didn't conflict with my desire to be with you. My sense of morality is clearly not that strong."He held her hand for a long time before speaking, "I was angry in the past because I thought you were promiscuous. That idea was preconceived in my mind, so in my view, your entanglements with other men seemed voluntary. "It made me feel insignificant in your heart, so, of course, I got angry."Caleb had never spoken these words to anyone. He lowered his eyelashes, gripping her hand tightly."It took me a long time to be sure of my feelings for you. Please don't break up with me."As soon as these words came out, Penny felt as if

    He grabbed the menu and casually ordered a dish, but Caleb continued to speak from the side."I heard you're still single, Mr. Strauss. There should be a special set meal for single people here, right? If not, I can ask the head chef to add one."Sean slammed the menu down."Caleb, don't go too far!"Caleb raised an eyebrow, about to say something more irritating. However, Penny spoke first."Mr. Strauss, don't mind him. Today's meeting is mainly to discuss the deal we had before. I'm sorry for breaching our agreement, so I want to compensate you."Sean's gaze was fixed on Caleb.Meanwhile, Caleb leaned back, raising an eyebrow."Penpen, didn't we agree that I would compensate him?"Penny quietly pinched his thigh under the table, causing Caleb to almost cry out in pain.He turned to look at her, frowning in disapproval.Penny cleared her throat softly and then gently patted the spot she had pinched.He was immediately appeased by her touch.Sean was no fool. He could tell

    After saying this, Sean did not wait for Caleb to react and paid the bill before leaving.Caleb was not very happy with that. When he was upset, his lips would be in a straight line.Penny pushed the glass of juice toward him, her tone sounded resigned."I was in the wrong in this matter, so why did you have to provoke him? Besides, Mr. Sean is actually a very nice person."Caleb looked at the food on the plate and found that it was tasteless.Especially knowing that Sean had paid for it.Penny patted the back of his hand. "No appetite?""Yeah."She knew he was jealous, but Caleb's jealousy trait really needed to be addressed.She did not ask further and began to eat her meal slowly.She knew if she were to ignore Caleb, he would probably sulk it out alone.After holding back for a while, he silently pulled out a napkin and wiped the corner of her mouth.When it was time to leave, it was already around 8:30 pm. Penny's phone was constantly ringing, all calls from the compan

    Winston felt puzzled about what magic Penny possessed to make Caleb so infatuated with her. He even blindly defended her in the face of hard evidence.Yet he realized that if he continued to speak ill of Penny, he might lose his friendship with Caleb.He reluctantly gave up and chuckled as he set down his glass."I never realized you were such a romantic."Caleb ignored him. Now that he was officially with Penny, he saw the world with rose-colored lenses. Winston, a self-proclaimed playboy who was allergic to love, pushed Caleb away with disgust."Stay away from me. I can't stand the sickly sweet smell of love."Caleb chuckled, his fingertips tingling as he thought about Penny."You're just jealous.""Jealous of what? That you have someone to control you now? Or that you'll have to share half your wealth with her? I, Winston Hill, would rather die than fall in love. It's so much more fun to casually date women and use each other without any responsibility."Winston poured hi

    After returning to Kensington Gardens, Caleb made a phone call."Look into a person named Casby," he instructed.He had promised Penny not to investigate the matter, but how could he possibly not care at all? Especially since that man had dared to drug her!He was determined to find the perpetrator and crush him to ashes!Meanwhile, Penny was still working overtime at Dawn Haven Villa. She had also instructed the staff of Dawn Haven Villa to investigate Casby.She did not want Caleb to investigate because she hoped he would quickly forget about the incident.Otherwise, it would inevitably become a thorn in their relationship.However, she had to conduct her own investigation.

    After doing all this, the man felt a sense of relief throughout his body.He placed the chip into a small box nearby and spoke indifferently."So, all you researchers are perverts, studying such things for no reason. And here I thought it was some kind of world-shaking weapon.""It is a weapon. Major powers can't engage in open warfare with weaponry because they all possess life-saving nuclear arms. So they invest in these kinds of projects. If the results of the experiment can willingly trigger a second personality in a person, and this personality is exactly what they need, then the person will completely become one of them when this second personality appears."Such people can easily instigate rebellion against high-ranking officials of a country."The man laughed scornfully. "Boring."Caspian remained silent for a while before he heard the man ask, "If this triggered personality can be controlled and used by them, is that also why I was triggered?""Yes.""Caspian, I don't

    Penny was displeased but was too shy to voice it out. Her body felt empty.“Are you happy that he’s back?” “No.” “Then, do you want me?” Penny bit her lip. He had caused sweat to break out across her body. Caleb’s phone rang. Finn was on the other end of the line. He answered the phone, and Finn’s voice rang out. “Imperial City is going to be in chaos tonight. The higher-ups are hunting for the results of Caspian's experiments, and even Uncle Shawn is getting involved in this. "He just called and told me that the higher-ups contacted him and basically forced him to agree to convince Caspian to give them the results. "Cas has also contacted the higher-ups himself and told them that unless Penny is by his side, the mental torture he was subjected to will stop him from recalling where he’s put the chip.” It was a matter of national security, and this was what Caspian was using as his bartering chip the minute he returned. There was no doubt the higher-ups would put a

    Penny had made it out of the room by then. Her face was deathly pale. “Penny!” Caleb ran after her and pulled her into his arms. He pulled her behind a pillar where no one could see them. Caleb knew what was going through her mind, and he held her face in his hands. She did not look at him. Her chest heaved as she struggled to process the truth. Caleb did not know what to say and merely brushed the tip of his nose against hers. When she did not resist, he slowly moved down and kissed her. He knew why Caspian had chosen this sort of appearance. Not only would he manage to devastate Penny, but he could also announce to everyone that he was Penny’s first love. That way, he could also cause Caleb to find himself in a sticky situation. However, Caleb could not care less. As he kissed Penny, he tightened his arms around her waist. Their breaths turned ragged as they continued kissing for another ten minutes. Finally, he rested his forehead on her shoulder. His back was slig

    Despite everyone staring at him, Caleb only had eyes for Penny. Penny did not know the reason behind that, and her brows were knitted together tightly as she watched Caspian make his way down from the second floor. He took the ring from the host and placed it before her solemnly. “I’m here to fulfill my promise, Penpen.” Penny wanted to smack his hand away, but he slowly bent over and smiled as he took her hand. He tried to put the ring on her finger, but his actions were stopped by someone else. He looked in the direction where the hand had come from, and his gaze met Caleb. “Long time no see, Caleb.” Caleb pulled Penny from her seat into his arms. She was left with no choice but to sit on his lap. Caleb could not care less about whatever sort of tricks Caspian would pull. If he allowed Caspian to put that finger on Penny’s finger, he would change his last name! Penny wanted to struggle out of his grasp, but the warmth of his body caused her to stop. He was still

    Some people were speculating if they had gotten back together again, and some were even wondering if Caleb was blind. Why did he pass on Khloe Strauss and choose a designer who did not come from a prestigious family? No matter how well Penny ran her company, these people would still view her as a lowly designer fighting to make a name for herself in the market. She ignored everyone else’s stares and merely took a piece of tissue. She turned slightly to wipe the sweat from Caleb’s forehead. Caleb opened his eyes slightly and looked at her. The two did not say anything. Plenty of people were standing around them, but the light above their heads seemed to have enveloped them in a world of their own. Penny felt her heart rate increase as she clutched the tissue and returned her gaze to the stage. “This is a piece of emerald that Mr. Winston Hill has donated. Bidding starts at three million dollars.” Everyone’s gaze turned toward Winston. Winston smiled at everyone as he int

Was something about to happen?She looked up, intending to speak with Winona. However, she suddenly heard Winona's soft sobs.

"Ms. Sullivan.""Did your ex-boyfriend come looking for you again? Haven't you already paid him back? Won't his family let you be?""That’s not it.""Is it because he and that woman are getting married?
