The two bodyguards had already dragged Sam to the first floor. They initially thought of pushing him out via the stairs but feared being photographed by the press. That could potentially involve S.M. in a scandal.Thus, they carried Sam to a flower bed and dumped him there.Sam, who had driven himself to the location, probably had not anticipated that he would be pissed to the point of fainting after hearing Penny's words. Then, instead of calling an ambulance, she even had him thrown out.When Sam regained consciousness, his suit was covered with a thick layer of dust, stirred up by the passing cars.He lay in the roadside flower bed, and astonishingly, no one had taken him to the hospital.Consequently, the incident of Penny having the unconscious Sam thrown out of the building spread like wildfire within the circle.Many in the circle could not believe it. Everyone knew how cunning Sam was. If he targeted someone, he would not rest until he had inflicted significant damage.M
As soon as these words came out, murderous intent enveloped the surroundings.Jeanie was so frightened that she wanted to scream.At this moment, the bodyguards stepped forward. They propped her up and intended to take her to the second floor.Sam sat down slowly and said in a cold tone, "If you let her out next time, none of you will live."Both bodyguards shuddered and hurriedly escorted Jeanie to the second floor.Throughout this process, Jeanie was in shock. She was unable to believe that her brother had murderous intentions toward her.As she was about to be pushed into the room, she trembled as she asked a question, "Has my brother gone mad?"Sam was on the first floor and could not hear her words, but the bodyguards were scared pale."Ms. Bailey, you better stay inside for now. Mr. Sam has been in a bad mood lately. Haven't you noticed many people from the Baileys are gone?"Jeanie's heart skipped a beat. "What do you mean?"The bodyguard glanced around before whisperi
Upon hearing Finn's words, Penny thought that she had indeed been too talkative.There were so many domestic helpers in Kensington Gardens that Finn must have been asked the same question as soon as he stepped in.She nodded in agreement, only to hear Caleb continue the conversation, "Not now, but maybe in the future."This was a rebuttal to Finn's remark about Penny not being the lady of the house.He was just short of clearly expressing his feelings toward Penny.Yet Penny, who was sitting on the chair beside the bed, replied quickly, "It's hard to say."She was currently discussing with the higher-ups how to deal with Astral Motion and temporarily had no energy to think about romantic entanglements.Yet to Caleb's ears, this sounded like a tactful rejection.Plus, it was in front of Finn, no less.He did not even need to look up to know that Finn must be looking at him with a gloating and mocking gaze.He stared at the small table in front of him, grabbed a spoon, and used
Penny stroked her head and almost shed tears when she thought of that video.When Nani was happy, she used to run circles around her. Now, as she was lacking energy, she only managed to bark several times before sitting down."I'm sorry, I'll never leave you at Kensington Gardens again."Penny held her head, gently massaging it.Nani's ears moved comfortably.After spending two hours with Nani, Penny drove back. Before leaving, she repeatedly instructed Nani, "You need to stay here to heal. I can't take you with me. When you've recovered, I'll bring you home, okay? Be good."Nani, understanding human emotions, sensed her owner's feelings. Although she was reluctant, she obediently stood still. She wagged her tail but did not step forward.Penny found her so adorable that she could not resist taking a photo and posting it on her social media: [The recovering Nani.]Caleb was the first to like the post, and Penny even thought he was constantly refreshing his feed.After liking t
However, Nani was smart. Penny wondered if she might become anxious because of this new dog's arrival.She looked down at the larger dog and asked Caleb, "What's its name?"Caleb had not named him yet. Seeing her interest, he smiled slightly, "What would you like to call him?""Blanche," she suggested.Penny realized Blanche was truly strong. She had thought Nani was strong among dogs, but Blanche seemed even more formidable.She quite liked him, but she still had to see how Nani would react."Let's keep him here for now. When Nani comes back, we'll see if the two dogs get along."Dog?Caleb paused for a moment but did not say anything.If she thought Blanche was a dog, then he was a dog. After all, most people would only think that Blanche was unusually large and would not guess he was a wolf.Penny untied the leash from Blanche and removed the humiliating bow and bell from the Alpha.Blanche sat on the ground with his head held high, almost reaching Penny's chest.She had
Penny immediately put down her spatula and grabbed Caleb's hand. She took away the kitchen knife and placed it aside."Go to the bathroom."Caleb, who was squinting his eyes, was pushed toward the first-floor bathroom.Penny scooped up some clean water with both hands and splashed it over his eyes."Bend over, or your clothes will get wet."He quickly bent over, his eyes still burning painfully.Penny repeatedly rinsed his eyes many times. Finally, she grabbed his hands, squeezed some hand soap into her palm, and meticulously massaged each of his fingers.After rinsing off the foam, she applied soap a second time to wash off the garlic scent from his hands.Penny grabbed a face towel nearby and dried his fingers. Then, she held his chin with one hand, tilting his head up slightly."How is it? Do your eyes still hurt?"The two were so close they could feel each other's breath.Caleb's eyes were still red. It was slightly painful but not unbearable."I feel like I'm going bli
Harrison's face first darkened, then took on a meaningful expression.He looked at the angry faces around him and sighed."You've all just witnessed it. Ever since he got involved with Penny, he's stopped caring about anything. We must oust him from the Fergersons while he still holds fewer shares."Amber's face also looked displeased. Caleb's actions were a slap in the face to the elders.Moreover, if he was really behind Sir Fergerson's situation, then he was acting recklessly and not taking everyone seriously.Harrison observed everyone's expressions and realized that no one was siding with Caleb anymore.If something happened to Sir Fergerson, this group could vote on whether to expel Caleb from the Fergerson family tree.Harrison's lips curved slightly, but he showed a facade of deep concern."Forget it. Let's try to persuade him for now to hand Dad back. Dad has always been in poor health and can't withstand any torment."Others joined the discussion."He's becoming mor
The room turned quiet after Francis was taken away. Then, Caspian’s voice rang out. “So what if you got your hands on the document? Without me, you won’t be able to do anything.” “That’s why I need your help. If you listen to me, I’ll spare Sir Fergerson's and Penny’s lives. Wasn’t she the reason you desperately wanted to escape back then?” No one answered him. The room managed to turn even quieter. Finally, Caspian sighed. However, his sigh was buried in darkness.…Caleb’s men searched the entire night, but none of them could find out where Francis was.Hence, he guessed that his grandfather must have left with them willingly. Else, there was no way to explain why he had not left some clues behind. After having assumed that position for so long, he would have at least honed a sense of vigilance.The butler called him again. “Mr. Caleb, we found some blood stains in Sir Fergerson’s bedroom wastebasket. It seems that his health has worsened and that things have not
