Chapter 958 None Of Them Want To Stand Out

Author: Twin Bridge
Penny could hear his conversation, but she did not know what he was talking about. She turned to look out the window, her heart consumed with worrying thoughts about Sir Fergerson.

However, Caleb drove her back to S.M. and told her, “Focus on your work. Things at the Fergerson household are going to become quite hectic.”

When he said things were going to become hectic, he meant he was going to deal with Harrison Fergerson and his men.

Penny had no means of helping and thus nodded.

Countless thoughts swirled about in Penny’s mind as she entered the building. Meanwhile, Caleb received a text message from Harrison asking him to drop by Fergerson Corporation.

Caleb stepped on the gas.

When he arrived at the building, he parked his car and headed to the top floor.

The atmosphere on the top floor was odd. Harrison had been in charge of all the documents recently, and the employees had not seen Caleb in a long time.

They seemed to have something they wanted to say. However, when

    A frosty expression appeared on his face as he found himself another seat. “I’m sure you know the man beside you, Caleb. He's the president of Automobile Maestros.” Caleb leaned back against his chair, his well-defined muscles beneath his suit accentuating his shrewdness. “Yes, I do.”He replied curtly as he gazed at the man. “After all, we’d just signed an agreement.” Harrison sneered. “It’s good you remember him. The deadline on the bet you set with him is approaching soon, and as agreed, you’ll have to give up 20% of the shares you own in Fergerson Corporation if you don’t have ownership of 5% of Automobile Maestros’ shares.”“That’s right.” Caleb’s calm and unhurried demeanor was inexplicably annoying. After all, Caleb did not seem to care the slightest that Harrison had so many people on his side. Harrison felt the urge to let Caleb taste all the woes and sorrows the world had to offer. Harrison was about to say something when Liam, who was sitting beside Amber

    “No need to treat Liam like that, Aunt Amber.” A bone-chilling look appeared in Caleb’s eyes, and Amber shuddered when his gaze landed on her.Though she always spoke of her son scornfully, everything she did was for his sake. She had slapped him before, but she had never left such a clear mark on his cheek. The only reason she slapped him just now was because she thought he was not living up to his potential and was wasting all the time she had invested in him.As she met Caleb’s gaze, Amber curled her hands into fists before speaking in a low voice. “Just keep quiet after this, Liam.” After all, what Harrison had just said was true. They had pooled their resources together into hiring a professional investigator, and Sir Fergerson still held a lot of power. If his disappearance turned into some massive conspiracy, it would affect dozens of people.As the mastermind, Caleb would definitely be severely punished, with the worst possible punishment being that his assets woul

    Caleb's eyes narrowed. His brows and eyes exuded a calm and clear aura as his gaze swept over everyone present."Did I perhaps hurt your brain last time, Uncle Harri? Otherwise, why would you think you can threaten me?"This statement immediately made Harrison's face turn extremely ugly.Last time, Harrison had humiliated Penny to the extreme, only to be knocked unconscious by Caleb's kick.This incident was brought up again, but he did not dare to speak out the reason why he was kicked. He had to swallow this frustration in silence.Caleb opened the door of the meeting room with one hand, and Sebastian followed behind him.Sebastian did not actually know what the CEO had planned, but he trusted him.As they approached, he heard Caleb speak softly in a tone only the two of them could hear."If I'm taken away for investigation, you must let Penny know."Sebastian looked up in surprise. Did he say to let Ms. Sullivan know?However, this matter was the Fergersons’ internal issue

    At the same time, news spread within the industry circles that Harrison was about to replace Caleb as the heir of Fergerson Corporation.Everyone watched with a surprised and speculative attitude.Caleb was well-known. Those of his age were often warned by their families not to provoke him. They were aware of his ruthless business tactics.How could Harrison possibly replace him?Yet, that was the message coming from the Fergersons. Moreover, Caleb was temporarily unable to make public appearances due to his involvement in a certain matter.…Meanwhile, Penny sat in her company building, facing several private detectives.She wanted the detectives to get evidence of Florence's scandal and hand it over to entertainment journalists. Under pressure from all sides, Florence would surely have to resign.Moreover, several high-level executives who were close to Florence were involved in messy romantic entanglements.Chadwick, Florence's right-hand man, was as corrupt as she was.Ho

    The voice on the phone was crisp, indicative of someone raised in luxury.Zach had already returned from his Hollywood film set, and his participation in the shooting was well-known to all his fans. If he did not appear in the final cut, not only would Zach suffer from online backlash, but S.M. would also be affected.Just as Khloe had said, Penny could not bear such consequences at the moment.The crisp voice continued, “Penny, from now on, you're not allowed to see Cally on your own initiative. Otherwise, both you and your company will suffer greatly. My patience is limited. Don't make me act against you, or you won't wake up to see tomorrow.”After saying this, the call was abruptly ended.Penny stared at her phone and fell silent.Meanwhile, Sean also received news that his little sister was coming to Imperial City. He clenched his phone and asked, “Did Ethan allow you to come? Did Mom and Dad also agree?”Khloe’s voice was full of coquettish charm. She was habitually whinin

    Penny wiped the coffee stains from her cheek and looked at Amber.Amber's gaze was full of resentment. After all, all the information she received about Penny was negative.In her view, it was Penny who ruined Caleb, leading him astray and causing the Fergersons to become what they were now. Penny seemed like a harbinger of bad luck to her.Seeing her son sneaking out to meet Penny infuriated her even more.Penny wanted to argue back. Parents who claimed to be acting in their children's best interests often did things that hurt them. They acted as if familial love was a get-out-of-jail-free card.She thought of many retorts, but in the end, she only said one sentence."If you truly cared for Liam, Madam Fergerson, you'd see how unhappy he's now."Amber stiffened as if struck in a vital spot.She dared not turn her head to look at Liam's expression and silently watched Penny pick up her bag. After politely paying for the bill, she left.Apart from that statement, Penny said not

    Caleb's tone remained steady."I'm just speaking hypothetically. Prepare a suite for me. I'll stay here for the next four days. For now, don't reveal my situation to the Fergersons.""Rest assured. If you ask for confidentiality, we won't say a word to anyone."Caleb was led away to the only suite available at the facility.The man wiped the sweat from his forehead. The conversation they just had could involve too many people if it became known.He quickly called over a helper assigned to service the area."For the next few days, you'll attend to Mr. Fergerson. Make sure he has everything he needs and serve his meals on time.""Understood."After Caleb arrived at the suite, he sat in a chair by the window.The place was relatively quiet.He took out his phone and saw missed calls from Penny. She probably wanted to ask about the Fergersons.He turned off his phone, aligning with the fact that he was detained for investigation. Placing the phone aside, he propped his chin wi

    The person who sent her this message must know Casby. Casby had even talked to this person about their promise.Penny reopened the letter, where she could still glimpse the man's gentleness.She wanted to know if he was really dead.This mystery had always troubled her, often turning into a tormenting nightmare at night.Unless she unraveled this mystery and discovered his identity and real name, both the ring and the letter would forever be a thorn in her heart—as well as Caleb's heart.Penny sighed, locked the items away, and went downstairs.This time, she returned to Quentin. It had been only two hours since she left, and Quentin was surprised to see her again."Mr. Parker, I need to ask, are you really sure Caleb will be safe? Are you certain he has a backup plan?"Quentin was putting on white gloves. He nodded slightly."Finn is rather calm, so he must know something. When Finn starts panicking, that's when we should really start to worry."Penny felt relieved, and her

    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

    Ethan patted her head and then noticed Sean's gaze shifting toward them."Sean?"Sean leaned back and remained silent, merely twirling his phone between his thumb and forefinger. His lowered lashes cast a shadow.He stood up and heard Ethan say again, "Leave your phone."Sean chuckled. "Ethan, you're being too serious right now."He left his phone behind and went upstairs.Khloe continued to sway Ethan's shoulders."Ethan, I had Wind take action against Penny tonight. This time, success is mandatory. Failure is not an option."Ethan's expression turned grave instantly. "Didn't I tell you not to act on your own?""But I nearly lost my life because of her, twice."After saying this, she touched the area over her heart, her complexion turning pale in a moment."Khlo?"This time, Khloe genuinely felt discomfort in her heart, and the next second, she fainted."Khlo!"Ethan was no longer concerned about reprimanding her and immediately took her to the hospital.…Tonight, the

    After returning to Dawn Haven Villa, Penny pulled up her laptop to check public opinion. There were those who vilified Zach, those who vilified her, and even more who vilified S.M.

    Penny stood still for a while, feeling unsettled as she got back into the car.Firstly, it was due to her situation with Caleb. Secondly, it was because of Ethan's words. Was something about to happen?She looked up, intending to speak with Winona. However, she suddenly heard Winona's soft sobs. She was lying on the steering wheel, so engrossed in her emotions that she did not notice Penny getting into the car."Winona?" Penny called out.Awakened from her daze, Winona quickly sat up straight. "Ms. Sullivan.""Did your ex-boyfriend come looking for you again? Haven't you already paid him back? Won't his family let you be?""That’s not it.""Is it because he and that woman are getting married? Did they send you a wedding invitation, which made you feel upset?""No."Then what was it?Penny knew that the family situations of the people close to her were quite simple.

On the contrary, they had strength in numbers. Khloe was just discharged from the hospital today and was planning to welcome friends who had come all the way from Americana to see her.Seeing Penny alone, she felt a surge of satisfaction.Given her status as Ms. Strauss, she had many friends in Americana and would never be as isolated as Penny.She had specifically called Linda over, knowing Linda's temper was explosive. Just a little sob story from her and Linda could spew out some really nasty words.Linda spoke up again at this moment."Slut, we'll get you killed sooner or later!"She touched her face as she glared fiercely at Penny as if she wanted to devour her alive.Khloe quickly intervened, saying, "Linda, let's go.
