Penny’s eye shape was beautiful, especially when tinged with red. It made her look pitiful.Her face showed defiance. She gritted her teeth and remained silent.Her expression made one want to shower her with kisses.However, Penny had calmed down by then. After all, Caleb had transferred five million to her.Five million for her grievance seemed to be a fair trade.She lowered her eyelashes.“I’m sorry, Mr. Fergerson.”She shouldn't have lost her temper with her own benefactor.They were still collaborating, and the customer was always right.In Caleb’s life, apart from Sir Fergerson, it was the first time someone had dared to treat him this way.Even so, he was not angry. He even found it intriguing.The fire in her eyes when she looked at him made his blood boil.He felt aroused.He swallowed hard. Holding the back of her head, he could not resist kissing her.Penny frowned and turned her head away.“Mr. Fergerson, do you want the fourth round tonight?”For some reas
Caleb, who often exercised, had a strong build. He lifted her into the air and pressed her against the cold wall.“Mr. Fergerson, this is the fourth time.”Penny lowered her eyelashes, appearing somewhat submissive at that moment.Caleb kissed her in that position, and amidst the pattering hot water, his face was exceptionally stunning.Penny could not help but admire that Caleb’s appearance was the most attractive she had ever seen. His lips were thin, and when he was emotional, the cupid bow of his lips was even more evident. It showed restraint and patience.Seeing a high-caliber man reveal such an expression did indeed give one a secret sense of satisfaction.It was human nature.No wonder Laura always said that sleeping with him was a win.Feeling her softening up, Caleb stopped being polite.The bathroom was filled with steam, and sounds echoed for a long time.When Penny was carried out, her body was as limp as noodles.When she was placed in the bed and sensed that C
When Caleb returned to the bed, Penny leaned toward him in a drowsy state.One of her hands even wrapped around his waist.He turned to look at her face closely.Her nose was elegantly pointed, her skin was good, and although her eyelashes were not long, they were thick.Even with her hair cut short, she still looked docile while sleeping.He could not help but hold her tightly and take a deep breath, as if he was cuddling a white cat.Penny woke up due to his nuzzling, looked at his face, and suddenly smiled.“It must be fake.”She was referring to the letter she had seen the other day. After all, the person was lying right beside her.Penny was dreaming. After saying this sentence, she went back to sleep.However, Caleb felt as if his heart had been heavily pounded because of her smile. It felt both sour and numb.“What's fake?”He wanted to find out.Penny opened her eyes again in a daze, her voice soft.“Youuu.”The end of her word seemed to linger, as if it had seep
Penny was good at self-hypnosis. After cashing the check and adding the previous five million, her account instantly had nine million more. She felt energized just walking.However, when she saw the marks on her neck again, she frowned. Should she talk to him about being more gentle next time? Otherwise, she would have to wear a scarf every time, which would look strange.Just after leaving the hotel, the police station called her, saying Timothy had ratted out Willow.Willow had already gone abroad. Due to conclusive evidence, an international warrant was issued. As long as she showed up, she would be deported back if found.Unless she remained anonymous.Timothy and his group would definitely not be able to return to Sullivan Corporation, which was currently in turmoil due to their departure.Fortunately, Penny had brought in Bauer Builders as a partner, and they had sent Lucas.Knowing that the two got along well, Rudy sent Lucas, indirectly telling Penny that he owed her a f
Jeremy was still dressed as a playboy today, driving the most eye-catching sports car. He smiled at her.“Penny, congratulations on becoming the CEO. You’ve even collaborated with Bauer Builders. Why didn’t you come to see me?”It was not that Penny did not want to go to see Jeremy. It was just that every time she sought him out, he would inevitably stir up trouble.Jeremy opened the car door, gesturing for her to get in.“Since you won’t come to me, I had to come to you. I'm offering a collaboration on my own initiative. What do you say?”This time, Penny did not refuse. She got in.Jeremy looked at her short hair and gasped.She looked so damn good!If people in the circle said Caleb’s wife was ugly, then no one could claim to be beautiful.“You cut off your long locks for work?”He joked, and his keen eyes noticed the scarf around her neck. Though it looked nice, he sensed something was off.Penny did not know where Jeremy was taking her and simply stated, “I don’t want t
Jeremy thought to himself, ‘I’m helping you out here.‘Can’t you see that Charlotte is practically glued to Caleb?’Charlotte naturally heard Jeremy’s words and could not help but sneer. “These people are shameless. Penny is married, and now she’s hooking up with Jeremy? Jeremy’s morals are twisted too. He's taking advantage of her husband being away to go to her home.”Caleb’s heart suddenly began to feel agitated.“Caleb, can you take me home?”“I’ll have Sebastian take you home.”“But I’m still injured.”It was merely a couple of slaps from the kidnapper and a sprained ankle, which had already recovered.“I have to go back to the office for a meeting.”Hearing that he needed to go back for a meeting, Charlotte stopped bothering him.Meanwhile, Penny, after hanging up on Jeremy's call, was somewhat puzzled.However, Jeremy’s words reminded her that since she was posing as a married woman, there should be a couple of pairs of men’s shoes at home.Thus, she went to the supe
Caleb’s hand almost got caught in the door. It was clear that she showed no mercy.He stood outside the door, taking a while to come back to his senses.His mind felt like it had jammed.Once he recovered, he felt a fire spreading from his chest. It rushed straight to the top of his head.He took a deep breath and stepped directly into the elevator.The cold aura around him seemed like it could freeze the entire space.The angrier Caleb got, the calmer he became.As he left the neighborhood, he saw Jeremy leaning against a car, smoking. Upon seeing him, Jeremy raised his eyebrows.“Ah, if it isn’t Mr. Fergerson? What a coincidence to run into you here.”Caleb did not say a word. He opened his car door and drove off after stepping on the gas.Jeremy stood still, watching the car drive away. The smile on his face slowly faded.If Caleb had set his sights on a woman, no woman could escape his web of charm.Especially since Penny was already his wife.Even if Jeremy was delibe
Penny was squatting on the ground, searching for the ring. Caleb had carelessly tossed it, and she had no idea where it had rolled off to.She lifted the sofa, which she had already searched once, but still could not find it.Nani was causing a distraction at her side, hopping up and down. She wanted Penny to pet her, but Penny ignored her.She had already scoured the floor, but it was nowhere to be found.She felt deflated as her eyes reddened. She should not have worn it tonight.She searched until midnight. The tiny ring seemed to have vanished into thin air.Penny became increasingly frustrated. She sat on the sofa, spacing out for a while. She figured she would not be able to sleep well that night if she did not find it.Then, she heard Nani barking and saw that the ring was stuck in a crevice of the sofa.Her eyes immediately lit up. She quickly picked it up, put it back in the box along with that letter, and locked the box. The notebook was also in there.Only then did
