Caleb’s gaze had changed; it no longer remained indifferent but seemed as if it was ignited with intense flames.However, he was Caleb Fergerson, someone even more restrained and patient than ordinary people.Thus, he just continued staring at the laptop screen, attempting to brush away those captivating thoughts.After all, she was a married woman.…Penny had made several consecutive calls to the hospital, but the conclusion remained consistent—it was alcohol poisoning.The police had started their investigation, but since the surveillance footage had been destroyed, they cautioned Mark’s family to prepare for the worst.Yet, Penny still had a gut feeling.Mark’s death surely had something to do with what he wanted to tell her.She first visited Mark’s wife. Although Mark had always been stern and rigid, he maintained a good relationship with his wife over the years. He was always family-oriented.Penny had met her before, but after Mark stopped interacting with her, their
In the next second, Penny pulled out a bottle of pepper spray and forcefully sprayed it into his eyes!“What is this?!”Asher only felt a burning sensation in his eyes, and they stung so badly that he could not open them. Tears streamed down continuously.Having known Asher’s dirty intentions for quite some time, Penny made sure to come to the company prepared.Now breaking free, she immediately grabbed a chair nearby and hurled it at Asher without hesitation.Asher cried out in pain and fell to the side, but he did not pass out.Still infuriated, Penny delivered a kick to his most vulnerable spot.Asher's scream grew even louder. The pain was so intense that his face turned pale. He curled up, his entire body drenched in cold sweat.Though he wished to faint, the immense pain kept him painfully awake.Outside the room, Susan hurriedly opened the door and walked in. Upon seeing Asher writhing on the ground, her pupils shrank.“Damn it! Penny, what did you do to Ash?!"Penny
Susan had never imagined that her son would one day lose his ability to reproduce. If that was the case, which woman would be willing to marry him?That part of his had been rendered useless!This was all Penny’s fault!Penny had caused her daughter to be constantly plagued by illness and her son to be sterile. She was determined to take revenge on Penny!“Ash…”Susan originally wanted to comfort him, but how could one console someone over such a thing? For a man, it was a devastating blow.Asher clenched his fists tightly, his face pale as paper as if the pain from that moment still haunted him.Thinking about it now, his back was covered in a cold sweat.He pursed his lips tightly, and all he could think of was Penny. He thought of hundreds of ways to deal with her!Seeing the look on Asher’s face, Susan was filled with fear. He looked like a predator that had fixed its gaze on its prey.“Mom, I want to kill her! I want to torment that wretch!”How could Susan dare to refu
When Penny arrived downstairs of Fergerson Corporation, she had just walked into the lobby when she passed by the reception desk and noticed that Belle was on duty that day.As soon as Belle saw her, anger filled her pretty face. She snorted and continued to show off to her colleague beside her.“Yes, it was bought for me by Liam, and it's over a hundred grand. I can buy a car with that money. It’s just such a pity for me.”Ever since Belle got involved with Liam, all her colleagues had come to know about it. At that moment, they all envied her like crazy.Being chosen as a receptionist, especially for Fergerson Corporation, meant every single one of them was good-looking. Many harbored the hope of getting involved with someone from the higher echelons of Fergerson Corporation. Yet none could do it like Belle, who directly snagged the cousin of Fergerson Corporation’s CEO. If they did not end up breaking up, she would be marrying into a wealthy family in the future.Moreover, Liam
Penny hurriedly stepped forward with a businesslike demeanor.“Mr. Fergerson, you've previously seen the original design, but there has been a minor change on the construction side recently. I thought of modifying this particular area.”She lightly tapped on the spot where the original pillar stood with her fair fingertips. She was not looking at Charlotte but rather, intently examining her own design.Charlotte’s eyes narrowed the moment Penny appeared.Was this the designer that Lulu mentioned?She was indeed very beautiful. It seemed like some confrontation would be necessary.Charlotte could not resist reaching out to grasp Caleb’s hand, but just at that moment, Caleb reached out to take Penny’s blueprint.Charlotte was left grasping at the air, feeling a bit embarrassed. She resentfully glared at Penny.Penny paid her no mind, simply quietly waiting for Caleb to speak.With one hand holding the blueprint and the other resting on the black office desk, the pale hue of Cale
Charlotte was standing at the door, so she did not witness that scene. Even if she had, she would never assume that Caleb did it on purpose.After all, Caleb’s temperament had always been cold. His attitude toward women had always been indifferent. He definitely would not have used such a childish tactic to flirt with anyone.At that moment, when she stepped out and the office door closed behind her, Charlotte looked at Penny’s face.She had to admit, this woman was indeed beautiful. The first time she saw her, she was somewhat taken aback.It was no wonder Lulu had warned her to be careful. If a woman like this tried to seduce Caleb, even if he did not fall for her completely, he might entertain the idea of spending a night with her.Then, Charlotte glanced at Luna, who was not far away. Luna had been staring intently at the door, watching with great interest.Now, seeing Penny coming out with her cousin, Luna’s eyes lit up instantly.“What is it, Charlotte?”“Caleb asked me t
The bags had hit Penny, but she did not catch them, so they fell to the ground. Luna became even more dramatic. “Do you know how much my cousin’s bag costs? It’s a limited edition worth hundreds of thousands. It's not something you can earn by working!”Penny smiled at both of them. “Ms. Shaw, I’m a designer, not a servant. Also, if you don’t want to come with me, Ms. Shaw, you can wait at the company.”“You!”Luna had suffered a lot at Penny’s hands before, but she had not learned her lesson.Charlotte gracefully picked up the bags from the floor and handed Luna hers while chiding her, “Penny is Caleb’s designated designer. You can’t be so rude. It’s one thing to be spoiled at home, but you can’t act like this outside.”After all, she had already asserted her dominance. As long as this designer knew that she, Charlotte, was the future Mrs. Fergerson, there was no need to be too confrontational. It would be beneath her.Luna listened to Charlotte. She quickly took her bag and n
After driving for half an hour, they finally arrived at Kensington Gardens.Penny was the first to get out of the car. Seeing that Charlotte and Luna had also disembarked, she pointed toward the inside.“Ms. Shaw, please.”Charlotte seemed satisfied with her attitude and did not find any fault. Hence, she followed Penny in.The layout of Kensington Gardens was very popular when it was first introduced, and it even had a surrounding garden of about a thousand square meters.This garden was exclusively for this villa, but currently, it was just an overgrown lawn that Penny needed to design.Penny led the two of them to a pillar. Due to ongoing construction, the noise was loud, and there was a lot of dust in the air.Charlotte frowned and waved her hand in front of her face.Luna also covered her mouth, concerned about breathing in the dust.Penny, walking ahead, pointed to the pillar that had been leveled.“Ms. Shaw, this is the place.”The sun was still up when they arrived.
