Caleb looked at her in utter disbelief, as though he could not fathom that she could say something so hurtful.He parted his lips but found himself at a loss for words as he knew nothing he said would change how she thought of him. He looked down, suppressed his emotions, and said, "Get out."Penny had no intention of staying as well. She pursed her lips and directed her attention to Winston upon seeing the blood that was trickling from Caleb's neck."Please have the doctor rewrap his bandage."Meanwhile, Caleb returned to the bed and rested his hands on the edge. "I don't need your concern. Just leave."Winston hastily tugged at his sleeve and said, "Caleb, ease up a little."Caleb's pride had always been unyielding, just like what was happening right now. He was clearly hurt by her words, but he still pretended to despise her.Caleb's lips trembled a little, and he fell silent before he gently closed his eyes.Penny felt uncomfortable too, feeling some traces of pain in her
"This has nothing to do with you, Mr. Fergerson."Caleb found it amusing. He had seen men who acted like they did not know the other party after a night of rolling in the hay, but he had not expected women to be just as skilled in the game.They had been intimate so many times that he knew every part of her body in detail. Apart from her ex-husband, he might be the only man who knew her body best. He even knew every one of her sensitive spots."Did you think the same when you got in bed with me?"His eyes were as cold as ice, but there was a fleeting glint of fire.It seemed that if she admitted to it, he would strangle her right then and there.Penny did not know how to respond.Caleb strode closer and stood in front of her."When you saw me at the Union County Plaza and started crying and throwing yourself into my arms, did you not have any feelings for me? Did you never feel a thing when we were in bed together?"Penny took a step back, feeling pressured by his imposing p
Penny drove Sean's car back to his mansion before she returned to Dawn Haven Villa. Laura called her just as she was about to go to bed."What's the deal with Sean and Caleb? The whole circle is buzzing about them fighting over you."Laura's tone was filled with curiosity."Penny, don’t tell me that you and Caleb are dating?"“No.”Laura sensed that Penny was fatigued, so she quickly changed the topic. "We haven't had a meal together in a long time. How about we meet up tomorrow?""Sorry, Laura. I have something on for tomorrow.""Okay, then you take care."Penny had planned to visit Fergerson Mansion to have a chat with Sir Fergerson. She was genuinely worried about being taken away by Aurelia again.…On Caleb's end, the expression on his face turned sour as soon as he got into his car.Sebastian noticed his bad mood and refrained from asking any questions.However, the events of that night had escalated too quickly, and the news had reached Sir Fergerson's ears.As su
At present, Sir Fergerson had nothing more to talk to Caleb about. He waved his hand after a few coughs."I promised Penny to arrange a dinner together sometime. You have to attend."Originally, he had made it clear that he did not want to get involved, but recent rumors had become too much to ignore.Seeing that Sir Fergerson did not plan to go after the woman he loved, Caleb saw no reason to upset him at that moment."Will do, Grandpa."Caleb then left Fergerson Mansion. His gaze remained heavy as he stared out of the car window.Even Sebastian could not figure out what was on his mind, but he was surprised that Caleb was not summoned for family discipline.Back at Kensington Gardens, upon entering the living room, the staff promptly presented a beautifully wrapped gift when they saw Caleb."Sir, this was sent by Mr. Hill."Caleb casually took it but did not open it.He went back to his room, took a quick shower, and avoided wetting the wounded area. He dried his hair with
She quickly got up, finished her morning routine, and went downstairs for breakfast.However, she could not have a peaceful meal. Aurelia called and hurled insults through the phone.She only listened to a sentence before hanging up.As she left the house, her car was intercepted by two vehicles on either side at a busy intersection in the city center.The window was knocked on, and she saw Miles Fergerson when she rolled it down.Miles had previously given her a bottle of medicine, instructing her to mess with Caleb. However, she had only contacted Miles once since she received the 300 million. It was evident that Miles could not stay idle any longer."Mr. Miles."Penny smiled at him.Miles pursed his lips coldly. "Miss Penny, you haven't forgotten about the task, have you?""How could I forget? I recently fell ill and was unable to do much. I'll see Caleb later and do as you instructed, Mr. Miles."Miles squinted his eyes. He did not mind using her family as a threat."If
"Jadey said that at the time, the kidnappers had targeted both her and Penny, but Penny left her there alone and went to hide. So, she was... In any case, this incident has traumatized Jadey. "Even though you might favor Penny, she is, after all, an outsider. If Penny doesn’t come forward to give an explanation, I’m afraid Jadey will continue to cry.”“I’ll go and see her.”Francis had long declared his intention to seclude himself, but recent events had followed one after another.He quickly went with Amber to the place where Jade was now living.As expected, as soon as he opened the door of the hall, Jade’s cries could be heard.She was still repeatedly muttering, “It’s all Penny's fault. If it weren’t for Penny, I wouldn’t have experienced all this. Penny did it on purpose because Caleb had ignored her for three years, so she took revenge on me.“I don’t want to live anymore, I really don’t.”During her days in the hospital, Jade thought that as long as she pinned this all
Finn inexplicably found it amusing.That beautiful short hair and her figure, Caleb would recognize her even if she was disfigured.What was she planning to do dressed up as a waitress?Was she here to cause trouble again?With a faint smile on his lips, Finn crossed his arms. “She has clearly rejected you. There’s no need for her to report her whereabouts to you.”Caleb realized this too. He had once said he would make her come back to him while begging.In the meantime, Penny truly thought Caleb had not recognized her. She pushed the dining cart to Miles’ private room with peace of mind.Inside, Miles and Chuck were enjoying their conversation.Sure enough, Sherry was sitting next to Chuck, and surprisingly, Tommy was there too.Penny had not expected Tommy to be involved in such a situation. She knew she had to inform Winona soon.She added a hallucinogen to Miles’ drink and respectfully poured it for him.No one noticed the waitress, so Miles drank the entire glass as us
Miles panicked when he heard he was to be expelled from the Fergersons.“Father, this is really a misunderstanding. I…”However, he got another blow from Sir Fergerson.“Get out of here now! You're not allowed to return to Imperial City. I’m giving you one night to pack your things. Otherwise, you’ll be escorted out of Imperial City tomorrow.”He showed no mercy to his own son.With that, Miles knew it was futile to continue struggling.Terrified, he hurriedly ran in the wrong direction and ended up beside Penny.Penny was startled and quickly lowered her head to hide her face.Miles, in his turmoil, indeed did not notice her and quickly turned back. He ran toward the central elevator upon realizing his mistake.However, as he reached Penny, her position was exposed.Several people looked over, discovering a waitress hiding there.Caleb immediately recognized her as Penny and scoffed.Meanwhile, Francis turned to Chuck. Chuck had not expected Francis to be there and instant
