“Seeing that you came to me now, it must’ve been because you didn’t book the wooden flooring in advance. Even though I really like you and should give some to you for Master Robert Zaki’s sake, you know well that items from my company have to be booked three years in advance. To allocate some for you on short notice, you'll be putting me in a tough position as well."Cornelius said these words with utmost sincerity, and Penny smiled.“Mr. Fay, I had heard that in the past few years, there were clients who miscalculated the delivery dates or had problems with their orders, forcing them to return goods. I won’t expect you to give me someone else’s order, Mr. Fay, but if there were such returns, could you give me their order? I'll offer a good price.”This time, Cornelius did not hesitate.“What’s your name?”“Mr. Fay, just call me Penny. My previous teacher liked calling me that too.”Cornelius laughed. “Since you’re his disciple, I owe you a favor. Stay and paint me something. If

Caleb pulled his arm away and nodded at Cornelius.“Uncle Cornelius, long time no see.”At this point, Cornelius had already stood up. He smiled and patted him on the shoulder.“You brat! How could you disappear without a trace for three years?”It seemed that ever since Caleb was driven abroad by that marriage three years ago, he had not been back here.For a moment, Penny could not figure out the relationship between the Fergersons and Cornelius. Perhaps Cornelius knew Sir Fergerson, which was why Caleb addressed him as ‘Uncle Cornelius.’Lily chimed in from the side.“If it were me, I’d also run off. Marrying a woman I barely know; I wonder what Sir Fergerson was thinking.”Cornelius shot her a stern look. “It’s none of your business to gossip about others’ affairs. Caleb, sit. We have a disciple of Master Robert Zaki here. It’d be good for you to meet her. Both of you are promising young talents.”As the other party involved in that marriage, Penny felt a sudden sense of a

Penny had ridden in Caleb’s car earlier. If he had not shown up, she truly had no clue as to how she would leave later.Upon hearing this, she quickly nodded. “Alright.”Lily noticed that the two started chatting right in front of her, and they were standing so close. She quickly stepped in between them, pushing Penny to the side a bit.With no choice, Penny stepped back on her own.Lily tilted her head and took the painting from Caleb’s hand.“It’s just average, to be honest. Such a level wouldn’t even be recognized at my academy. I don’t know what my teacher was thinking today, giving it full marks.”Her words were somewhat rude, even belittling Penny in her presence.Currently, Penny was still at the Fays’ residence and had some requests to make. When faced with Lily’s rudeness, she chose to see her as a little princess who merely spoke her mind.Amidst this subtle silence, Caleb picked up from where Lily left off.“Penny’s actually your senior.”These words made Lily extr

After Penny spoke, she heard the sound of rain from outside.Cornelius had just come out of the kitchen at that moment. Seeing the rain, he said with a smile, “After this, many fresh mushrooms will pop up tonight.”It seemed that Cornelius really loved the woods. He walked to the sofa, sat down, and started talking about the things one could find in the mountains, instantly dispelling the previous odd atmosphere.However, as time passed, the rain outside became heavier, almost turning into a torrential downpour. Visibility quickly decreased, and the sky seemed very dark.Such weather in the woods was indeed terrifying.Cornelius then spoke up.“I’ll have the maids prepare some rooms for you. Stay the night. Nobody should leave in this weather. It’s dangerous to drive down, and we don’t know if there are any landslides.”After saying this, he specifically looked at Penny.“Penny, since you came with Caleb, you should also stay. I won’t feel comfortable knowing you two are drivin

Penny felt a bit embarrassed at that moment because there was not a thread under her towel, and she was completely bare beneath. When Caleb saw her like this, she felt like her whole body was on fire.Caleb held a tube of ointment in his hand and was wearing only a shirt. A few buttons of the shirt were undone, revealing his collarbone.Below that, bandages could faintly be seen.Penny realized that he probably came for her to help him apply the ointment.Their rooms were close, and she had bandaged him up before.She did not know where Sebastian’s room was, so it made no sense for Caleb to go far.Caleb’s gaze fell on her for a moment, and he turned to go back to his room.However, Penny was worried that if the ointment was not applied, his wounds might worsen.After all, he was whipped because of her.“Are you here to apply the ointment? Come in,” she said, stepping to the side.Caleb hesitated, his brows furrowing.If it was another woman dressed like this inviting him in

The places her fingers touched warmed up.His breathing faltered for a moment.Penny, however, was earnestly applying the ointment, ensuring she had not missed a spot before she took the bandages. She wanted to re-wrap them.However, the action of wrapping the bandages, just like before, required her to lean in. Thus, the distance between the two of them shortened to the point where their breaths intertwined.Caleb had turned his head away, a frown forming on his face.Penny knew he did not like being too close to the opposite sex, so she sped up her actions.When she was about done, she sighed in relief, but as her breath touched Caleb’s skin, he could not help but lean back a little.“Mr. Fergerson, it’s done.”Penny felt awkward and hastily tried to step back.However, because Caleb had leaned back, he inadvertently pinned a corner of the towel. When she stepped back, the towel was held in place and proceeded to unravel.Caleb turned around, only to have a towel thrown rig

When Penny came to her senses, Caleb was no longer in the room.Only then did Penny get so frightened that she almost fell off the couch, her complexion changing.What was Caleb up to?Was it because she was wearing so little or because the ambiance was good that he got briefly lost in his feelings?She frowned belatedly, thinking about those kisses that fell like feathers on her earlobe and neck, making her whole body burn.When Penny stood up, her legs still felt weak. She made her way to the bathroom, noticing her neck had turned red.What on earth happened?She washed her face with cold water, trying to snap herself out of it.However, the cold water seemed to evaporate immediately upon contact with the heat of her face.Penny felt a kind of restlessness, as if someone had deliberately teased her and then left without explaining why.Could it be?Did Caleb also harbor such worldly desires?Recalling the night they shared, she realized she would not be able to sleep toni

As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere at the scene became subtly tense.Caleb held his cup and calmly took a sip of tea.Penny, on the other hand, was momentarily flustered by the statement.However, she quickly regained her composure, lowered her gaze, and spoke with a nonchalant tone.“Yeah, but he’s not some wild man. I was out all night and didn’t go back, so my husband called me.”As she said this, she turned to look at Lily and gave a smile.This was the first time Lily had heard that she was married. She quickly felt a bit embarrassed, thinking her previous antagonism was somewhat silly.She cleared her throat softly, just as Cornelius decided to speak up.“Lily, you should apologize. Why are you so casually saying such things? It’s only because Penny is good-tempered that she doesn’t hold it against you.”Realizing she had no grounds to target Penny, Lily quickly apologized sincerely.“I’m sorry. I didn’t know you were married.”If she had known that Pen
