When Penny returned to Dawn Haven Villa, she saw the car parked outside and knew that Caleb was back. She froze in her tracks.She stepped back almost subconsciously and left Dawn Haven Villa in a hurry.She was not in the best mood. She thought, ‘My newly bought house is full of issues, and the Sullivans are pushing me around. On top of that, I’m forced to hide when my so-called husband shows up at Dawn Haven Villa.’She teared up and found a random chair around Dawn Haven Villa to sit down on.The wind at night was cold, and she hunched her shoulders. She felt a tight pain in her chest.Penny was deciding on whether to spend the night at The Rosarium when a pair of black leather shoes stopped in front of her.She was slightly stunned. When she looked up, she saw Caleb looking at her. Penny's heart skipped a beat, and all of her negative emotions disappeared immediately. All she could think about was whether Caleb had found out about her identity."Penny? I thought I mistook
Penny froze and panicked for a second before she hesitatingly replied, "Mm, we've been here once or twice."Caleb thought, ‘Her husband only brought her to a restaurant like this once or twice?’His brows furrowed even tighter, but he did not say anything. After all, it was a family affair.His fingertips were placed on the table and stood out next to the red roses, making them more attractive than usual.Penny soon forgot about what happened in Sullivan Residence, her gaze falling on his fingertips.The bright red roses on the table complemented his skin.She was thinking, ‘This is a decent composition. I can paint this scene when I get home, get some sleep after, and head to Union County when I wake up.’Caleb noticed that she was staying silent and staring blankly at his hand.She did not hide her gaze; it was still the same look of appreciation and admiration.Caleb was about to say something when he noticed a couple walking toward them not too far away. The man happened t
However, the reality was that Penny merely took a glance at the two who were hugging and kissing before she turned her head around awkwardly."Mr. Fergerson, sorry you had to see that."Penny thought to herself, ‘They’re kissing like nobody is around them. It’s so cringeworthy.’Penny was not a fan of public displays of affection. She had not been intimate with anyone except for that one night with Caleb. As such, she felt awkward being around the couple.The woman was sitting in Lucas' lap, completely blocking Lucas from Penny’s view. All Penny could see was the woman's back, the man's hands around her waist, and the man's top half.That was why she did not recognize Lucas.Caleb was ready for Penny to tear ‘the mistress’ a new one, so he was taken aback by her response.He looked at Penny.Penny was a little puzzled as she could feel that something was up with Caleb from how he was looking at her. She thought to herself, ‘He’s looking at me as though he’s feeling distressed
She found a random spot to sit down and rubbed between her brows.‘I could spend the night at The Rosarium…It doesn’t matter where I sleep tonight since I'm going to Union County tomorrow. There’s no point for me to go back to Dawn Haven Villa as I’ll have to hide from Caleb.’Penny took a taxi, returned to The Rosarium, and took a comfortable bath. She was just about to rest when there was a loud knock on the door.She frowned, walked to the door, and saw the woman who had previously caused a fuss with Nathan Easton.The woman did not wear any makeup, but her thick dark eyebrows and eyeliner stood out. Penny assumed that they were tattooed and found them weird."Bitch! Open the door right now!"The woman slammed the door vigorously as though she wanted to break in.The quality of the door was superb, so all she was doing was disturbing the neighbors.The woman kept banging on the door and woke Belle Castillo, who lived opposite Penny.Belle wore her pajamas and could sense th
Penny was not aware that he had the video, so she started making up an excuse.[Yeah, my neighbors are renovating their place in the middle of the night. I’ve complained about it, but the management office cannot mediate the situation.]Caleb thought to himself, ‘Renovation?’He knew that she acted tough in front of others, but he did not expect her to be so good at telling lies.His eyes narrowed, but he did not expose her.He did not ask where she was going either.Penny did not receive a reply, but she was not at all disappointed.The woman continued slamming on the door until the middle of the night and finally accepted that Penny would not open the door, so she left cursing.Only then did Penny put down the documents in her hand and fall asleep.The next morning, she prepared a simple breakfast and packed some clothing. To her surprise, the woman persevered and continued knocking on her door.Penny frowned. She already had two conflicts with that woman and knew that she
He saw Susan lying on the ground when he rushed over."Dear!"He yelled and hurried over to help Susan up.Willow learned that Susan had fainted and came downstairs. She was frightened, stood still with her face all pale, and trembled.Zane was overwhelmed. He saw Sunny, who was just standing beside him, and yelled, "Call 911 now. Take her to the hospital with me!""What about the share transfer...""What’s more important?! We can talk about this later!"A smile flickered across Sunny's eyes, and the corners of his mouth slightly curled up. He hurried over to support Susan."Mr. Sullivan, I understand. Don't worry, I've already called 911."The two sent Susan and Willow to the hospital, and no one mentioned the transfer of shares.Susan, who was faking it, was overjoyed when she heard what Zane said.The doctor examined her and found nothing wrong. The doctor said, "It may be that she’s too tired and has been worrying too much. She just needs to rest more."Willow was a fre
"Penny, get in. You shouldn’t sit there."Penny did not want to argue with him as she knew that she would be talking to a brick wall no matter how hard she tried.She got up and got in the car. Zane then apologized to her."I’m sorry for what happened last night. I didn't expect Sherman to try that on you."Penny bit her lip and replied, "Is that it, Dad? Shouldn’t Susan apologize to me for saying what she said?"A look of embarrassment appeared on Zane's face."Susan fainted just now, and the doctor said that it's because she’s been overthinking. I know that you don’t have a good relationship with her. If I ask her to apologize to you, I'm afraid she might faint again."Penny closed her eyes and said nothing.Zane knew that Susan had gone too far, so he took out a credit card from his bag."There's 10 million in this card. Feel free to spend it as you please."Penny did not answer as if she did not hear him.Zane felt a little embarrassed. He did not know what else to do.
Caleb took a deep breath, and chills ran down his angular face.Lucy sensed that the two of them were at odds and followed behind them almost tremblingly."Sir Fergerson, Ms. Sullivan has a fever. She fell asleep after taking medicine."Sir Fergerson ordered her to open the door of Penny's room.Lucy had no choice but to open it and stood aside respectfully.Sir Fergerson glared at Caleb before he said, "Aren’t you going in and taking a look? Were you lying to me when you said you were trying for a child?"Caleb's brows were twitching. Sir Fergerson received a call and demanded that Caleb follow him to Dawn Haven Villa.He stepped into the room where Penny was, but the door behind him closed before he could say anything!Caleb's mood turned completely dark, his gaze as cold as ice.Sir Fergerson ordered Lucy to lock the door, and she quickly took action.Sir Fergerson said through the door, "Caleb, take good care of Penny. I believe that you two are sleeping in separate rooms
