Sean and Ethan also hurried into the ward.Khloe was still unconscious on the hospital bed. Her wrist that was hanging off to one side was startlingly pale.Ethan grasped her hand, sighing softly.Although her life was not in danger, Khloe's health would definitely worsen after this incident.He took out his phone, thought for a long time, and finally decided to call their father.Seeing the number Ethan dialed, Sean was taken aback."Ethan, you're going to tell Dad?""Yes."Sean immediately felt uneasy. Their father was the most authoritative person in the family. If he found out their little sister was in trouble...However, it was too late to stop it. The call had already been made.There was a time difference with Americana. The middle-aged man glanced at the flashing name on his phone screen and pressed the answer button."Ethan, what's going on?""Dad, Khlo is hospitalized here. She’s in a coma. I thought you should know."The man was silent for a moment before askin
Upon learning her baby could be saved, the woman burst into tears and was quickly supported back to her ward by her husband, who had arrived in a hurry.The man kept thanking Penny, and his eyes were red. He explained how his wife's emotions had been unstable during pregnancy. She often broke down, suspecting him of lying and doubting whether the child could be saved. A stranger like Penny could not possibly be lying to her, which greatly stabilized the woman's emotions.Penny observed the woman being embraced by her husband. When her husband arrived, his hair was disheveled and his suit was wrinkled. It was presumably due to some incident on the way.He loved her.They looked into each other's eyes with deep affection. Seeing his wife cry again, the man immediately used his hand to wipe her tears away."My love, let's not have the baby. I really don't like kids that much. With our savings, we could travel the world together.""No, I want the child. I must keep her.""Okay, ok
Penny also opened her mouth, wanting to ask if he truly intended to sever their relationship.However, as they looked at each other, neither of them spoke.A minute later, Caleb walked toward the elevator.Penny hurriedly followed."Caleb..."She followed him all the way to the elevator. Just as the doors were about to close, she blocked them with her hand.Caleb's heart nearly stopped from the shock, and he quickly pressed the open button, looking at her angrily."What do you want to say?""Do you really want to be with Khloe?""Yes."Penny took a deep breath, her hand tightly clutching the bag of medicine."So no matter how I explain things to you, you won't believe I didn't harm Grandpa Fergerson?"Caleb did not respond. He did not want to see her. Just the sight of her face made him feel as though he was being repeatedly cut by a knife.He simply pressed the button to close the elevator doors."The person who harmed Grandpa Fergerson wasn't me. I saw him getting stabb
Caleb stood in the elevator, watching the numbers slowly descend. He was somewhat unable to react.He suddenly snapped back to reality and began frantically pressing the buttons for the upper floors, but those buttons remained unlit.When he reached the first floor, he laughed at himself upon realizing how absurd his behavior was. He walked out of the elevator and began to wait for it to go up again.However, the elevator was heading to the second floor of the basement.The adjacent elevator remained at the higher floors without descending.After waiting for a full minute, he grew impatient. He decided to find the nearby stairs and started running up.After running up eight floors, his forehead was covered in sweat. He grabbed his tie, accidentally undoing a few buttons of his shirt. However, he was not bothered to fix them. He looked up and scanned around. He saw Penny not far away.Penny was wiping her tears, making his heart feel as if it had been pierced by an arrow.Ev
When she returned to Winona's hospital ward, Winona saw her demeanor and asked with concern, "Is it about the company?"Penny shook her head and forced a smile at her."Winona, you stay here and recuperate. I'm going to Dawn Haven Villa to take a shower and then head to the company to check some documents.""Okay. But Ms. Sullivan, you don't seem to be in good shape.""I'm fine."Penny left the hospital, glanced at the sky outside, and felt tears searing her eyes.She drove back to Dawn Haven Villa and washed off the gasoline smell from her body. When she left the bathroom, she realized she had scrubbed her skin red.It was as if by doing so, that night with Casby could be erased.She forced herself to go downstairs and drank a cup of bitter coffee before heading to the company.She held a meeting to determine the company's goals for the next month and then stayed up late reviewing documents.When the buildings outside were brightly lit, she picked up her coffee, stood in fro
Once Penny devoted herself entirely to her career, her mind worked quickly.Soon, her name hit the trending searches. Previously, she had Winona operate a marketing account, which had amassed millions of followers.Now, the marketing account leaked news claiming Penny had abandoned Zach to pursue Caleb, sending him luxury cars and diamond watches daily.Comments quickly piled up.[Is Mr. Fergerson lacking in money?][This woman is so superficial, it's embarrassing. How does Mr. Fergerson tolerate her without killing her?][I have a photo here. It's supposedly Penny herself.]A photo was then pushed to the forefront.To Penny's surprise, it was indeed her.However, she was dressed in bulky clothing, looking quite hefty. Only her back was visible. She appeared as if she weighed around 180 pounds.She was amazed at what netizens could dig up.Quickly, due to the photo's exposure, Penny's Twitter account gained a hundred thousand followers. They all mocked her with the photo.P
The Fillip Award held significant weight within the industry. There were so many from the film and television companies, including S.M. staff, who watched the live broadcast that night. Even though she was hospitalized, Winona did not forget to ask the hospital staff to help turn on the TV. When she saw that scene, she understood it must be Penny making sacrifices for the company.Recently, the company had lost many collaborators. Something had to be done to win them back.She felt moved and watched the screen without blinking.Whenever the camera panned over people from S.M., Winona felt an indescribable sense of pride.Having been with the company from the start, she had seen their struggles and knew how hard the artists worked behind the scenes. She had always believed that S.M. would go even further in the future.Her eyes reddened as she watched. Right then, she heard a knock on the door and thought it was a nurse. Hence, she did not pay much attention.The door to the w
Watching scenes with Penny in them, Caleb felt a throbbing pain in his cheek.His phone buzzed with a text from an unknown number: [Is Penpen pregnant?]This message ignited Caleb's anger, and he immediately called back. The call was answered, but no one spoke.Caleb's throat tightened, and he was unsure of what to ask. After a long pause, he managed to ask, "Where are you?"The person on the other end chuckled and then hung up.Caleb slammed his fist onto the desk next to him. He made another call, ordering a thorough search for Casby's whereabouts.Agitated, he ripped off his tie and sat back down.As the award ceremony's live broadcast was drawing to a close, he stood up, grabbed his coat, and left Fergerson Corporation.Driving to Sky Lounge, he ran into Quentin.Bumping into Quentin was usually difficult due to Quentin's busy schedule.With Finn and Winston absent, Quentin joined him for a drink.Midway through, Quentin asked, "Did you and Penny really break up?
