Yearning for Her Return Chapter 1014 An Eye for an Eye
Penny's gaze landed on a straight, beautiful stick on the flower bed. It lay with the other freshly pruned branches and leaves in a pile, not yet swept away.The stick looked harmless—thin and straight.But Penny, who had been beaten before, knew that such small sticks were truly painful when used to hit someone, much like a whip.Francis, distracted by Penny's words, didn't react immediately. Penny went over and stripped the leaves off the stick.Francis was still in stunned silence when she headed toward the villa with the stick in hand."Ah…" Francis wanted to say something, but Penny was already far away.Inside the villa, Penny's portly father lay on the couch. In front of him was a brand-new wine set.Spencer seemed to be in a good mood as he was humming a tune under his breath.Julia sat on another couch, dressed like a wealthy lady. Her former enthusiasm for her husband had subdued, and her previous flattering demeanor was reined in.But she seemed to maintain some adu
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 1015 Ugly Expression
"My God! What are you doing? What on earth are you two doing?"Penny only took a deep breath and threw away the stick when it broke. At the same time, a panicked voice rang out from behind her.She coldly looked at the man curled up in the corner of the couch, still shielding his face with his arms, and sneered in her heart.To think such a person was her father. It was ridiculous. Did he even deserve to be related to her?She flitted her gaze to Julia, who was sitting with a blank expression on another couch.As for this nominal mother, Penny didn't harbor much hatred, but she felt no significant emotion for her, either.After all, she had often heard terms like "jinx" and other humiliating nicknames from Julia.At most, she could say her mother never hit her. But as a mother, Julia had never cared or protected her.Even when Spencer hit her, Julia would only echo her husband on the side, afraid of upsetting him.If so, why did they bother to have Penny at all? It was disgust
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 1016 Fainting From Distress
Seeing the stern look on Beatrice's face, Spencer knew trouble was imminent.His father had died early, and he was raised single-handedly by Beatrice. Even at his age, Spencer's reverence for Beatrice outweighed any expectations one would have of a mother.Thinking about it now, the most rebellious thing he had done in his life was probably dating Julia in college and then insisting on marrying her despite opposition. That was when he was at his most defiant.But after graduating and returning home to take over the Lowe family business, his ignorance forced him to seek guidance from Beatrice once more.The rebellious spirit of his student days had gradually worn away under her cold scoffs, and every successful project was under her direction.Thus, any resentment born from Beatrice's strict discipline turned into respect with each piece of advice she gave.So, even after many years of marriage and having a grown daughter, he would become meek whenever Beatrice appeared. He would
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 1017 Fall Through
They just needed to marry off Penny before this issue became public. With the two families already cooperating in their businesses, even if the matter leaked later, it would be less significant.Moreover, the men in their circle all behaved the same way—quickly losing interest in the old and seeking the new.If Penny's future husband grew tired of her because of these incidents, the Lowe family could simply cater to his interests and find a few more attractive women to please him.This would show their in-laws the Lowe family's sincerity in their cooperation. There was no need to worry about breaking their business relationship.Men, especially wealthy ones, often couldn't control their lower halves. Once their material needs were satisfied, more ambitions emerged.Beatrice's husband was like this, and so was her son. She had come to terms with it long ago. Nothing was more important than benefits.These men might keep to themselves for the first couple of years of marriage. But,
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 1018 Old Beasts
"Who are you calling an old beast? Who taught you to speak like that?""How can my plan possibly fall through? That's impossible!"As Penny finished speaking, both Beatrice and Spencer protested loudly in unison.Having lived to her age, Beatrice was accustomed to being treated with respect. No one had ever spoken to her with such foul language, so she was immediately enraged and embarrassed.Spencer was also unwilling to accept that his painstaking project had fallen through.He had gone to great lengths to cater to the other party's preferences, risking being scorned by everyone for sending his own daughter away.Yet, now he was being told that nothing had happened, and his business deal was ruined.If that was the case, why did he still have to endure being beaten up by Penny?He felt it was all in vain and couldn't accept the outcome.Spencer angrily declared, "You don't understand business matters, so don't talk nonsense. Just stay at home for now, and don't go anywhere.
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 1019 Pitying Her
"Penny."It was Julia. She had run out of the villa and, seeing Penny getting further and further away, had to raise her voice.Julia's voice couldn't be described as gentle. Perhaps due to years of indifference, she couldn't change her tone so suddenly.Penny stopped in her tracks and turned to look at her expressionlessly."What's the matter?"Julia couldn't be described as her mother, either.Compared to most mother-daughter relationships, the two of them were like strangers who had only met a few times.Perhaps they were even less than strangers.Strangers would at least be polite when they met, unlike the way they were.Julia felt a bit uncomfortable inside when hearing Penny's tone.Penny had treated Spencer that way because he was a despicable man. If it were Julia, she would have done the same, too. Maybe she would have even stabbed him.But Julia hadn't offended Penny.Back when she gave birth to her, she had at least taken good care of her for a year. She was Penn
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 1020 Resentment
Julia ignored the ridicule in Penny's eyes. After handing over the card, she stepped back, her meticulously maintained face showing a hint of impatience."You are my child, after all. I can't just watch you starve out there. Although I dislike you, seeing you reminds me of my past foolishness. But no matter what, I still have enough conscience not to let you die out there."Penny was somewhat surprised, though not fully understanding Julia's words.Although the temperature in June wasn't high, a lady who paid attention to skincare never liked the sun.Standing under the sunlight for a short while already made Julia highly impatient. She no longer wanted to continue the conversation with Penny."You know my situation. Giving you this much is already quite good. Don't come looking for me in the future."Penny understood now. Julia intended to use this money to sever any remaining feelings between them.But what feelings did they have between them in the first place?Penny had alw
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 1021 Not Angry
"Are you done talking? If you are, can I leave now?"Penny didn't want to listen to her nonsense. The sunlight was quite ferocious, and after beating up her so-called father, she was quite tired.She just wanted to find a place to sit or lie down. It would be even better if she could have a glass of cold water.Julia probably didn't expect her to have such an indifferent attitude and was taken aback for a moment.After a while, an unexplainable anger arose within her.She always felt that Penny shouldn't have this kind of attitude. Even if Julia didn't expect gratitude, she should at least get a "thank you". How could Penny be so perfunctory and indifferent?Even if these emotions were absent, shouldn't Penny at least treat her like she treated Spencer?Shouldn't she curse at Julia, throw the bank card in her face, and say she didn't want her money? None of that happened, either.She had accepted the card calmly, with the same impatience as Julia.Julia couldn't understand. Sh

Penny didn't have much free time over the past three years.As she had envisioned, during the first year, she honed her acting skills amidst criticism while also working as a translator.Later on, she felt that acting didn't hold much appeal anymore. Moreover, realizing that there weren't any roles left for her, she gradually gave up and moved toward working behind the scenes.She had some work during this period.It seemed that a daring reality show, not caring about potential risks, decided to capitalize on her controversial popularity and invited her to participate in one of their programs.The reason Penny agreed to participate was because the show's first season had a good reputation, and the payment offered was reasonable.Continuously doing translations could be quite tiring. After discussing with Cecilia and weighing the pros and cons, she eventually signed up for this TV show.Unfortunately, she had underestimated the darker side of human nature.The show's production
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 1064 End It
"Really?" Zane blurted out, staring incredulously at Sam, who nodded calmly. His unruly and carefree demeanor was restrained, and his composed attitude showed that he wasn't joking.Zane fell silent again, furrowing his brow as he intently observed Sam.It was as if he thought everything through in an instant, giving up without hesitation. He didn't even remind Zane of the request from years ago to take care of Penny. Instead, he said this would be the last time he would help out.Logically speaking, this should be a satisfactory outcome for Zane. After all, from any perspective, the Lowe family's scion would only be a burden to Sam.Looking again at Sam's attitude, it seemed he didn't want Penny to know he was the one quietly spending money to handle things behind the scenes.Since there was no plan to meet her, he didn't need to worry about anything after that. If that was the case, it would be better to just end it early.That way, if Sam saw Penny falling in love, getting mar
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 1063 No Need to Bother
All those old scoundrels from the Lowe family undoubtedly ranked the highest. Then there was Jessica, the entertainment industry's national goddess, who also played a significant role.Besides them, there were a few minor celebrities who didn't really make the cut.However, as Sam's partner and someone who watched him grow up, Zane privately hoped Sam could find a better girl.So, he advised, "There are plenty of socialites in Riverwood, and Amdale has no shortage of beautiful young ladies, either, and Rookfort isn't much different."You and the Lowe family's daughter haven't even officially met…""Who said I haven't met her?" Sam interrupted him without a second thought.He had even seen her twice. How could Zane say they hadn't even met yet?The first time, she gave him all the money she had. The second time, he spoke up to help her get that role.After these interactions, they could be considered acquaintances.Zane choked up and couldn't find the words to refute.He was s
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 1062 Enough
Because Penny declined his offer, Zane didn't insist. After a bit of small talk, he ended the call.He politely mentioned that if she needed any help, she could call this number again. If he could assist in any way, he certainly would.However, Zanw knew very well that, given Penny's temperament, she would rather give up what she had than actively seek help from a stranger.Yes, to Penny, Zane was just a stranger. He was a person she had met once but didn't really know.This time, Penny didn't respond as coldly as she did when she was 18. Instead, she exchanged a couple of polite pleasantries, mentioned that she would reach out if needed, and then hung up the phone.After that, she let out a long sigh of relief and lay on the lounge chair on the balcony, gazing at the view outside the window.There were fluffy white clouds in the azure sky and the greenery visible in the neighborhood. Sparrows were chirping persistently as they darted through the forest, and the cicadas loudly bu
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 1061 Better
Although the other person said only one word, Penny could still tell he didn't have any ill intentions.Because of that faint sense of familiarity, Penny didn't hang up the phone immediately. "Hello? May I ask what this is about?"The unfamiliar and distant tone probably made the man on the other end of the phone pause for a moment. It was only after a brief silence that he responded."Young lady, don't you remember me? It's Zane Moran."His voice carried a laugh, with a hint of teasing.Only then did Penny remember who he was, but she wasn't happy at all.Zane meant no harm when that incident happened back then. But despite that, over the years that had passed, he became one of the people and things Penny would rather not recall.Whether it was the exam she missed, the incident where Spencer took her to the hotel against her will, or Zane, who gave her 30 dollars for a taxi ride.She just wanted to hide all of them deep in her memories.The recent events had particularly made

"I'm fine. You all don't have to look so worried. You're making it seem as if something bad is going to happen to me."Penny looked at the two people at the door who were showing a range of expressions, feeling speechless.Cecilia was provoked by her words, and her eyes turned red."We're worried about you. You have no idea what you look like right now. You're almost like one of those disheartened protagonists in novels who hated the world."Penny clicked her tongue twice and said, "Aren't you exaggerating?"She didn't believe it. She was just worried about money. It wasn't like she had become disillusioned with life.Besides, she didn't dislike this world at all. On the contrary, she really liked it.Whenever Penny came across posts online suggesting that all humans should just die, she always felt like rolling her eyes. If they wanted to die, they shouldn't drag others with them.When searching for her own role in movies, TV dramas, and novels, Penny particularly preferred re
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 1059 Helpless
Penny's way of clarifying things was to simply tell the truth.Sometimes, trying to cover things up would just lead to needing 100 more lies to continue the cover-up. That would often end up making things worse and more ridiculous.It was better to tell the truth about the situation.To answer the question of why she lashed out at the Lowe family, she briefly explained her experiences over the years.Why didn't she attend the final paper of the college entrance examinations? She personally reopened that old wound.As for that man in the hotel, Penny didn't have much of an impression of him anymore. She only remembered not taking his business card and accepting 30 dollars from him.Why did she show up at that man's hotel room? She wrote it down truthfully—it was her father who personally took her and left her at the hotel, wanting to trade her like a commodity.Every single word was carefully considered and written by Penny.She didn't share much of these things with Cecilia. Th
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 1058 Excuses
Once the official statements were released, Penny's career being ruined became a certainty.The only surprising thing was probably that after the film crew issued their statement, the largest investor also requested to withdraw.The film crew was completely shocked, but there was nothing they could do. The scion was willing to lose money just to withdraw his investment, so what could they do?The amount of money in the compensation was nothing compared to the amount that the scion planned to invest. The production team would incur a significant loss.With one less investor, the project's status was essentially downgraded. They had much less room to manipulate their gains now, too.One would understand why the scion was doing this if they used their brain a little.However, the protests from the audience couldn't be ignored, and compared to the investors, it was clearly more important to keep the show going.After all, they could always attract more sponsors, even if the amount o
Yearning for Her Return Chapter 1057 Despised
In addition to the widespread backlash caused by the phone recording, Penny's academic credentials were also scrutinized and exposed.Before the college entrance exam, she had always been the top student in her school and had never ranked anything else.However, in the college entrance exam, she barely passed the minimum mark for key institutions, far below her usual performance.Some people speculated that she had been cheating during regular exams and that her actual abilities were much worse.However, the exam results could be checked online, and the fact that Penny scored zero on the last exam was surprising.It was even more shocking that she was admitted to a top-tier university despite missing an exam. It was truly exceptional.But few people paid attention to this information.After all, the achievements attained through hard work couldn't be faked. Even if the results weren't as expected, it was undeniable that she was stronger than many others.Regarding this topic, t
