Chapter 621 This Damned Man

Author: Twin Bridge
When she went out, she deliberately wrung the water out of her clothes.

Then, she went to the bedroom and fetched a new set.

This time, Caleb did not play any pranks and came out honestly. Seeing her completely soaked, he nodded his chin at her.

“Go take a shower.”

The air conditioning in the room was on, but Penny was not cold. Even so, she complied with his words and went into the bathroom, where he also stuffed her a men’s shirt.

To prevent him from barging in halfway, she even locked the bathroom door from the inside.

She comfortably took a bath inside.

If others knew that Caleb allowed someone to use his bathroom, they would definitely be shocked.

In this respect, his cleanliness obsession had reached an unbearable level.

Nonetheless, Penny obviously did not realize this. By the time she came out, over half an hour had passed.

Voices of him holding a meeting with someone and the sound of fingertips tapping on the keyboard came from the room.

Penny did not bring a change

    For some reason, Caleb would always feel at ease when he held her.He felt satisfied and reassured.They used the same shower gel, so their scents were similar. This was not the first time they had been like this.However, this time, she was divorced, and so was he. The sense of satisfaction was even stronger.Penny had just sat down when he opened her shirt.He put on the agarwood bracelet again.Her figure was very good. It was not so noticeable as she dressed conservatively in normal daily life.With a standard full bust and perky rear, plus a pretty face, Caleb was extremely satisfied the first night they had slept together—although he was unwilling to admit it.It was late at night, and the lights in the room were bright.In the living room, the man held onto the woman. Because he was tall, she seemed petite sitting on his lap.They kissed for quite some time before he lifted his head. There was a soft light in his eyes.Penny was instantly struck by that look. She awkw

    Inside a villa on the outskirts, several bodyguards knelt on the ground, their expressions very solemn.“Boss, we’ve tried various methods, but the security of Dawn Haven Villa was personally arranged by Sir Fergerson. We simply can't break through it.”Sir Fergerson, having spent many years in the army occupying a commanding position, arranged the security without any vulnerabilities. The defense was impervious even to professionals.Most importantly, there were very few domestic staff in Dawn Haven Villa, all of whom had been there for over three years. Lucy counted the number of people every day, making it impossible to infiltrate by blending in with the domestic staff.There were only about ten domestic staff, and the rest were all security personnel. These were people that Sir Fergerson had personally trained over the years, and their loyalty was absolute.If that item was in Dawn Haven Villa, they would have to let Penny retrieve it personally.The man wearing a mask sat in

    Amber’s eyes turned colder. She glared at Penny as though she were a fox spirit bewitching a king.“Penny, you go out. I have something to talk to Caleb about alone.”Penny stood up and unhesitatingly exited the room.However, before she could close the door tightly, she heard Amber’s interrogation.“Is your involvement with this designer genuine? What do you plan to do with the Strausses’ heiress?”Caleb’s brows furrowed, finding it amusing as Sean had also mentioned Ms. Strauss the last time.However, he did not know that woman at all.“Caleb, I met with Sean yesterday. He mentioned this matter in passing, and only then did I learn that you and Ms. Strauss have been corresponding. She’s the little princess cherished by the Strausses. "You can’t treat her the way you treat Penny Sullivan. The Strausses won’t let you off.”Penny closed the door when she heard this.Sean had indeed mentioned that matter on Caleb’s birthday.The Strausses, a heavyweight wealthy family in Amer

    Lucas stood not far away. He understood Caleb’s thoughts well, so he did not say a word at this moment, merely acting as a backdrop.Caleb leisurely finished a piece of biscuit, then Penny then instructed Lucas.“Is there coffee?”“Yes, I’ll go make it.”She nodded and casually threw the biscuit wrapper into a nearby trash can.Caleb felt entirely at ease. The more he looked at her, the more pleasing she appeared.A few minutes later, Caleb pulled her over and kissed her lips.“Penny, you’re quite suitable to be a secretary…”Just as soon as he said this, the sound of a cup hitting the floor came from the doorway.Penny hastily pushed Caleb away. She saw Lucas standing at the door, hands stained with coffee. The cup shattered on the floor, apparently due to him being startled by the scene just now.He quickly bent down to pick up the shards, hurriedly apologized, and quickly went to get a new cup.Penny frowned, even somewhat suspecting if Caleb was doing this on purpose.Y

    Caleb was still mad over Penny’s departure. He was so angry that he felt a pain blooming in his chest. However, he was good at hiding his emotions. The look on his face did not change as he continued working. He planned to deal with her after night had fallen.By the time he made it to the end of the workday, though, he received a call from the Fergerson Estate.Yvette sounded like she had aged several years. "Caleb, I was in the wrong during our previous conversation. I’ve got everything figured out now.”Caleb did not believe that. Yvette had never cared about anyone else other than Caspian. After his accident, she was so angry that she moved out and refused to return home for six years.There was no way someone so blatantly biased could wrap their head around this. However, Yvette’s next sentence caught his attention. "I have some of your brother’s stuff with me. Why don’t you come look at them and share a meal with me while you’re at it?”Caleb had never received any

    Penny sprang to her feet when she heard that. “What did you say?” Jessie sniggered before heaving a sigh. “I’ve been holding myself back because I thought you’d be quick to say yes to my offer. However, you were wasting so much of my time that I had no choice but to do what I did.” Penny’s chest heaved, and the look of hatred in her eyes became even more pronounced. She thought about how carefully she had held the urn in her arms during her father’s funeral… “Your father’s ashes are with me, Ms. Sullivan. I’ve got connections working in the funeral parlor, and I had them give you a couple of stray dogs’ ashes. There was just enough to fill up your urn. I didn't expect things to progress to how they are now.” Jessie said nonchalantly, “Are you ready to talk to me now?” Penny regained her composure. She could not fall for the woman’s tricks. “Where would you like to have this conversation, Ms. Thornton?” Jessie sent her an address. “Right here. We have no idea if Tabi

    Caleb got to his feet and headed out of the house.However, the room began spinning when he got up. A frown appeared on his face as he stared at the plates of food on the table. His mother and grandmother had drugged the birthday feast they prepared for him. A sharp pain pierced through his heart as he reached a hand up to massage the space between his eyebrows. “I don’t like her, and I don’t want to marry her. Caspian might still be alive, so…” Yvette interrupted him before he could complete his sentence. “Don’t lie to me. Your grandfather told me the other day there’s no way Caspian is still alive no matter how much I wish he was and that he wouldn't return to us. Caleb, let Charlotte help you through the pain you’re feeling.” Caleb felt a nauseating dizziness wash over him. Through the dizziness, he saw Charlotte making her way to him. He grabbed her arm and shoved her aside. “Fuck off!” Charlotte fell to the ground, and the fall hurt so badly that she nearly bega

    “Shut up!” Shawn’s aura took the air of a majestic leader. Aurelia was so frightened she shrank into herself, and tears continued flowing down her face. A solemn air hung over the corridor. Shawn’s loathing of Aurelia had reached new heights, and she seemed to merely be crying crocodile tears when he heard her sobs. He was so angry that his hands were shaking. “I didn’t do it on purpose, Shawn…” Aurelia continued apologizing to him. She knew she was in the wrong this time. She did not want to divorce Shawn because she loved him. He was the man she loved most in the entire world.However, Shawn merely closed his eyes before saying in disgust, “Go cry somewhere else if that’s what you’re going to do. Don’t stay here and disgust everyone else!”Aurelia’s face immediately paled. The lights in the operating room shone as a nurse hurried past. It was a solemn scene. Francis could not help thumping his cane against the floor. “Preposterous! Simply preposterous!”He had ne

    Penny was displeased but was too shy to voice it out. Her body felt empty.“Are you happy that he’s back?” “No.” “Then, do you want me?” Penny bit her lip. He had caused sweat to break out across her body. Caleb’s phone rang. Finn was on the other end of the line. He answered the phone, and Finn’s voice rang out. “Imperial City is going to be in chaos tonight. The higher-ups are hunting for the results of Caspian's experiments, and even Uncle Shawn is getting involved in this. "He just called and told me that the higher-ups contacted him and basically forced him to agree to convince Caspian to give them the results. "Cas has also contacted the higher-ups himself and told them that unless Penny is by his side, the mental torture he was subjected to will stop him from recalling where he’s put the chip.” It was a matter of national security, and this was what Caspian was using as his bartering chip the minute he returned. There was no doubt the higher-ups would put a

    Penny had made it out of the room by then. Her face was deathly pale. “Penny!” Caleb ran after her and pulled her into his arms. He pulled her behind a pillar where no one could see them. Caleb knew what was going through her mind, and he held her face in his hands. She did not look at him. Her chest heaved as she struggled to process the truth. Caleb did not know what to say and merely brushed the tip of his nose against hers. When she did not resist, he slowly moved down and kissed her. He knew why Caspian had chosen this sort of appearance. Not only would he manage to devastate Penny, but he could also announce to everyone that he was Penny’s first love. That way, he could also cause Caleb to find himself in a sticky situation. However, Caleb could not care less. As he kissed Penny, he tightened his arms around her waist. Their breaths turned ragged as they continued kissing for another ten minutes. Finally, he rested his forehead on her shoulder. His back was slig

    Despite everyone staring at him, Caleb only had eyes for Penny. Penny did not know the reason behind that, and her brows were knitted together tightly as she watched Caspian make his way down from the second floor. He took the ring from the host and placed it before her solemnly. “I’m here to fulfill my promise, Penpen.” Penny wanted to smack his hand away, but he slowly bent over and smiled as he took her hand. He tried to put the ring on her finger, but his actions were stopped by someone else. He looked in the direction where the hand had come from, and his gaze met Caleb. “Long time no see, Caleb.” Caleb pulled Penny from her seat into his arms. She was left with no choice but to sit on his lap. Caleb could not care less about whatever sort of tricks Caspian would pull. If he allowed Caspian to put that finger on Penny’s finger, he would change his last name! Penny wanted to struggle out of his grasp, but the warmth of his body caused her to stop. He was still

    Some people were speculating if they had gotten back together again, and some were even wondering if Caleb was blind. Why did he pass on Khloe Strauss and choose a designer who did not come from a prestigious family? No matter how well Penny ran her company, these people would still view her as a lowly designer fighting to make a name for herself in the market. She ignored everyone else’s stares and merely took a piece of tissue. She turned slightly to wipe the sweat from Caleb’s forehead. Caleb opened his eyes slightly and looked at her. The two did not say anything. Plenty of people were standing around them, but the light above their heads seemed to have enveloped them in a world of their own. Penny felt her heart rate increase as she clutched the tissue and returned her gaze to the stage. “This is a piece of emerald that Mr. Winston Hill has donated. Bidding starts at three million dollars.” Everyone’s gaze turned toward Winston. Winston smiled at everyone as he int
